Hi, John: Regarding Jaguars defensive end K Lavon Chaisson, you state that you would expect him to improve with a full year working with coaches. I hope he does, but watching him last year I can only think of a handful of plays that were highly impactful – and I don t remember any play where you said: Wow, did you see what he did? He finished with one sack and a couple tackles for loss. This is in contrast to defensive end Josh Allen, who had many impactful plays and more than a couple of wow plays as a rookie. Granted, Allen was taken very high in the draft (No. 7 overall in the 2019 NFL Draft) and Chaisson at (No.) 20 (in the 2020 NFL Draft), so you would expect Allen to be much better. My question is this: Did you see the improvement that you expected between Year 1 and 2 from Allen? I didn t, and it was (other than the quarterback play) the biggest disappointment of the season. Do you think the lack of progress (if you see it that way) was due to t

Something that struck me about that Albert Breer interview with Jaguars Media last week was his assertion that Urban Meyer won t be pointing fingers at players, and that the emphasis will be on coaches developing players. He even went so far as to say that Urban believes NFL players are inherently good and it s on coaches to develop them. It seems like Urban believes that it s always coaching in the NFL, or at least it s far more important than you believe.
Coaching matters very much in the NFL. It is particularly important for head coaches – and by extension, assistants – to set the tone and standard for an organization, and to ensure players understand that standard. When I say, it s always coaching in the NFL, I m usually talking about fans criticizing coaches for play-calling and fans who believe firing a defensive or offensive coordinator on a Monday will magically transform a team into greatness by the following Sunday. Here s the biggest way co

Instead of beating this dead horse about revitalizing downtown, let s get practical. Instead of trying to create an interest around the stadium, build the new replacement stadium where there is already interest. Say: south of Jacksonville between here and St. Augustine/World Golf Village. The mentality of We must sink money into this foolish investment is dangerous. Sometimes you just need to accept what is. The Landing was tried, it failed. COVID has changed things like this forever. It baffles me why this clinging to the idea that the Jaguars must create all these external money sources to be viable is so prevalent. How much are the Jaguars needing to make to stop this need? What do other teams in the lower tiers of this issue do? I haven t heard of any other team having to find alternate revenue streams or their franchise is in danger. Help me understand why this is a Jacksonville thing? Our tickets were 19

In reference to our defensive tackle need, take a look at the draft history of first-round defensive tackles taken after Pick No. 20. It s a pretty uninspiring group to say the least. It would appear that the odds of picking even a decent defensive tackle are against us. I will pound this drum into oblivion: draft offense, buy defense.
Well said – and you re correct about how defensive tackles selected late in the first round of the NFL Draft often fare. Many talent evaluators resist taking certain positions – including defensive tackle and left tackle – late in the first round because the theory is the positions are so valuable that good players at the spots are often over-drafted. If that s the case, then it follows that elite defensive tackles usually will get selected in the Top 10 and good defensive tackles usually will get selected soon after that. The theory follows that if a defensive tackle is worth a first-round selection he will be go
