Title: It could be worse Post by: ArtieChokePhin on October 05, 2021, 12:19:10 pm You could be the Jacksonville Jaguars. 0-4 and now your coach may not survive his first season.

I don't think he will have Saban's success but he can repair it if the Jags let him go after this season.
Should've known things weren't going to work out the second they drafted a RB in the 1st round. Title: Re: It could be worse Post by: dolphins4life on October 05, 2021, 12:41:59 pm However, if you look at the big picture, Jacksonville wins

"he must regain our trust and respect" What's worse is a player who requested anonymity said that Meyer now has "zero credibility in the locker room" Title: Re: It could be worse Post by: EDGECRUSHER on October 05, 2021, 03:18:47 pm What's worse is a player who requested anonymity said that Meyer now has "zero credibility in the locker room" Well, the team has zero credibility on the field ;D Jokes aside, it looks like the team is more pissed that Meyer canceled the Monday meetings to deal with this personal matter. I just found about all this drama today, was it really just Urban drunk in a bar while some younger woman danced near him or am I missing something else? Title: Re: It could be worse Post by: CF DolFan on October 05, 2021, 03:39:31 pm He stayed in Ohio after the game instead of working on the game plan for the next week. If anyone need to be worried about trying to win a game it would be him. According to Joe rose he doesn't know of any other coach who did not return with team and coaches.
Title: Re: It could be worse Post by: masterfins on October 05, 2021, 03:48:27 pm I think things are being blown out of proportion. BUT this is the NFL, you don't stay behind to visit with family unless there is a death or big illness, which would mean you wouldn't be out at some bar. He set a bad example for the players, they wouldn't be able to do that, nor should he.

That sounds like a guy who realized he bit off more than he could chew and he misses the friendly confines of a state he is regarded as a hero in. I know things get overblown in sports and I like to see the whole picture, but not traveling with your NEW team after going 0-4 so you can get drunk in a bar? That's really not good. If he wasn't such a high profile signing, he probably would've been fired for that. Title: Re: It could be worse Post by: EDGECRUSHER on October 05, 2021, 06:40:22 pm "The ownership of this team is with the players". Urban said on his weekly radio show which he probably shouldn't have and focus 100% on football. That is not something he should be saying now as it sounds like shifting all the blame to the players.
Assuming the Titans beta them pretty badly next week, that means we will face the Jags in London as they go 0-6. If we somehow turn it around and demolish them, they might just leave him in London.
