Football is so much about emotion and Bradley's style fed off it. In Jacksonville he just won't have that. Sure, Khan will spend - but who's going to come out to see it? Even when they had a winner, Jacksonville wasn't drawing well. And they have that QB purgatory problem as well unless they decide to just give up on Gabbert and start over. Of all the jobs on the market this winter, I think that one was clearly the worst.

Kill yourself, Jags fan. You and your 17 closest friends won't be enough to make that hell-hole a decent job.
Oh well, things will start looking up for him when they move to LA.

Last year, Cincinnati was dead last in attendance and made the playoffs. In 2008, the two Super Bowl teams (Arizona and Pittsburgh) were 24th and 28th in attendance respectively. Ever since JerryWorld opened up, Dallas has routinely led the league in attendance. Those big crowds haven't stopped Romo and Garrett from choking. The attendance thing with Jacksonville is overplayed. The real issue is that they drastically misjudged the market at the beginning and built an oversized stadium, hence the tarps. EverBank Field is the 27th-largest football stadium in the country, and that's counting both college and pro football. There's no reason why a market as small as Jacksonville needs a stadium that's almost as big as Dallas' and bigger than the stadiums in Denver, Atlanta, Houston, San Francisco, Philly, Seattle, St. Louis, Detroit, Chicago, etc.

Emotion is more than just raw numbers. You say the stadium size issue is overplayed, but it really isn't if it kills the environment. For instance, do you think a 1/2 full Jax stadium carries more energy than a capacity Steelers house? We'll see. If he's truly a great coach, he'll overcome it. But the Jags just seem like a massive afterthought in that town. I could certainly be wrong.

I love you too, Sweetie.
Jacksonville is a raging, dank shithole. I have been there. Its awful and anyone that voluntarily chooses to reside there has clear mental deficiencies. But again, don't worry buddy. It will all be over soon.

Best owner in the league. I'd say both the Jags and Chiefs are headed up.

Yes, you're going to be very happy with this hire.
I'm less interested in X's and O's. And what have you done for me lately. I believe this guy is going to be an outstanding leader who also happens to be good with X's and O's. |
