Jags Boot Urban, Become Playoff Team

Urban sucks, but it wasn't just a coaching change. They had one of the best offseasons in the league. Their top 3 receivers Christian Kirk, Zay Jones and Evan Engram are all new this season. Etienne also missed the entire year last year with a foot injury. This is a much improved roster compared to last year.

The James Robinson trade and making Etienne the lead back changed this dramatically. Plus the light has gone on for Trevor.
 
Wouldn’t be the first to have the game pass him by

My favorite highlight:

There were signs that Urban was maybe not very stable before he left OSU. IMO while he no doubt could run a college program there were rumors that he wasn’t dealing well with game day decisions and the stress. I’m not all that surprised that he didn’t work in the NFL and I really didn’t want him at NU.
 
Doug Pederson is a pretty good coach.
There's a new breed of NFL coaches. The good ones have a way of letting everyone know they are in charge without acting like alphas all the damn time. That s*** works pretty well with keeping 19-year-olds in line. Gets old real fast with 25 year olds.

Pederson came in and Trevor Lawrence is better for it. Because as good as he is, he still needed development and mentoring so he can lead a franchise. It's paying off. Urban bullying was not helpful.

Pederson is a very good QB coach. In many cases NFL coaches are at the mercy of their GM and roster. I think Pederson is a good head coach too.

Exactly, receivers will make a huge difference, a non-rookie qb, etc.

There were signs? You don't say.
