TRESTMAN TO JAGUARS?
JACKSONVILLE, Fla. (AP) – The Jacksonville Jaguars played most of the season with six rookies and three second-year guys on offence.
It showed.
The Jaguars (3-13) ranked 31st in total offence, averaging 290 yards and 15.6 points, and provided few, if any, signs of improvement down the stretch.
Offensive co-ordinator Jedd Fisch got blamed for the debacle.
Coach Gus Bradley fired Fisch on Tuesday, two days after Jacksonville ended the season with an NFL-low 24 offensive touchdowns.
“We just had some philosophical differences,” Bradley said. “The direction we wanted to go as an organization on offence, that’s what it came down to.
“Which way is best? I don’t know. “I know the way we kind of want to do it. … We want to help him (QB Blake Bortles) get better every day and not overwhelm. I think you know my philosophy of be careful of how much you put on a guy to create a lot of anxiety that might keep him from being his best.”
Although Bradley said he has not even thought about potential replacements, Jacksonville could reach out to fired Chicago Bears coach Marc Trestman or San Francisco 49ers offensive co-ordinator Greg Roman. Trestman and Bradley are close, and Roman and Caldwell were college roommates at John Carroll University.
NFL OC yeah, NFL HC way over his head.
Bears Fan still celebrating his dismissal.
Trestman to Rough riders as they clean house, President of on field operations, Gm, head coach. One million+ per season contract.
PS,
I'm like having a new year drink.
Haaahuppy Nu Yearrrr !
Yea right, Barb!
Roddy – you're tight with Trestman. Where's he going?
Tanner in Calgary
I'll never tell.
Good job Rod, you're da man
i think Trestman got fired because of his bad dye job! I looks like he uses shoe polish to dye his hair and eyebrows! Good thing he wears a cap on the sidelines.
