    Dougie P New Coach Of Jags

    According To Adam Shefter
    We're looking for people that are fundamentally different,” vice president of player personnel Andy Weidl said Saturday night. “The love and passion for football, it's non-negotiable. They're caring, their character, they do the right thing persistently, and they have a relentless playing style that you can see on tape. The motor, it burns hot. You see them finishing plays. They have a team-first mentality. They're selfless individuals.

    Good for him. Maybe he can undo any damage they did to Trevor Lawrence.

        Pretty much the opposite of Urban Meyer. Good move for Trevor and the franchise.

          I think the Jags have some players, they might surprise if Lawrence takes a step up. Best of luck Doug

            I love Dougie P and Trevor Lawrence is a great kid I think. I wish them a lot of luck. Maybe they want Andre Dillard for their third rounder?

              If I'm the Birds I'm hanging on to Dillard. You never know what's going to happen and he's great insurance.

                Trevor Lawrence 'really relieved' by Jaguars' hire of Doug Pederson

                For nearly two months, Trevor Lawrence and the Jacksonville Jaguars were without a head coach. Urban Meyer was fired on Dec. 16 with four weeks to go in the season, giving Jacksonville a seeming head start on other clubs to locate its next leader.

                But it wasn't until Thursday night, almost 50 days after Meyer's departure, that the Jags found their guy in former Philadelphia Eagles coach Doug Pederson.


                For Lawrence, the wait for a new director left him and the team directionless, but Saturday's introductory press conference of Pederson felt, finally, like the start of something special, Jeremy Bergman of NFL.com reports.

                "We're really excited obviously," Lawrence told Jaguars team reporter Ashlyn Sullivan on Saturday. "I talked to him briefly on the phone Thursday night, and then today, first time meeting him in person, just seems like a really great guy. Obviously, he's had a lot of success. His resume kind of speaks for itself. He's an offensive guy, played quarterback in the NFL. All of those things make me really excited, and it's something that I'm just excited to get to work with him and see what he brings to the table."

                "I think everybody's excited. Everybody's really relieved we got our guy, and to be able to move forward and go to work now is a really good feeling."

                Lawrence struggled early in his rookie season, as first-year quarterbacks are wont to do. The former Clemson QB completed 59.6 percent of his passes for 3,641 yards, 12 TDs and a league-high 17 INTs as Jacksonville stumbled to a league-worst 3-14 record. In an uninspiring offense, Lawrence did not look comfortable in the pros until late in the campaign.

                After working for less than a season under Meyer, a longtime college coach who never played in the NFL, Lawrence sees in Pederson, a former NFL quarterback who's coached in the pros since 2009, someone to whom he can relate and with whom he can prosper.

                "He played the quarterback position," Lawrence explained, "so he sees it through my lens more so than a lot of coaches that haven't played the position."

                  I think the Jags turn things around quickly

                    Agree. It helps going two or three years in a row with top five picks but Doug is a good coach, although I think he needs a good DC. Give them another year and I think they will be competitive
                    Wait until next year is a terrible philosophy
                    Hope is not a strategy
                    RIP
