The Jaguars'
Carlos Lee Jersey much-hyped hiring of coach Urban Meyer is officially a total disaster. Team owner Shad Khan fired Meyer on Dec. 16. Jacksonville was 2-11with the three-time college football national champion at the helm. Meyer was brought in after a1-15 campaign in 2020.Khan finally reached a boiling point with Meyer after questionable coaching and reports of di sensionthroughout the organization, but the steam toward a one-and-done breakup had been building for a long time. There were questionable decisions regarding coaching () and personnel () before the season. During the season,the Jaguars' rocky on-field performance dragging down No. 1 overall quarterback Trevor Lawence. There also was, whichadded to the volatile mix.MORE: Khan made a splashy, sizableinvestment in Meyer, , he decided not to give him an extended chance to turn things around. A quick firing during the 2021 NFL season was

All of them are built to produce real results with Lawrence:MORE:Jaguars' 7 best potential replacements for Urban MeyerByron Leftwich, offensive coordinator, BuccaneersLeftwich, 41, has done tremendous work as Bruce Arians' protege getting in sync with the greatest quarterback of all time, Tom Brady. The former Jaguars starting quarterback perhaps should have already returned to his first NFL home, moving three hours up the road from Tampa.Leftwich would be an awesome influence on Lawrence with all of his experience. It doesn't hurt he can now boast about a Super Bowl ring.Kellen Moore, offensive coordinator, CowboysMoore is only 33, but does it really matter with the way he's turned Dak Prescott and Dallas into a versatile and explosive scoring juggernaut? He's proved to be mature beyond his years, enough so that offensive-minded Mike McCarthy had to make the nece sary smart move and keep him as the play-caller. The former Boise State star quarterback would have fun designing ways to maximize Lawrence's dazzling skill set of big arm and plus athleticism.Eric Bieniemy, offensive coordinator, Chiefs If the guy helping Brady or Prescott doesn't sound appealing, how about the guy working with Patrick Mahomes, who's long overdue for a head-coaching gig somewhere at age 52? Again, everything needs to be about trying to develop Lawrence into an
Marwin Gonzalez Jersey elite quarterback as quickly as po sible. Remember that Mahomes was MVP in Year 2, his first season as a full-time starter.Joe Brady, former offensive coordinator, PanthersOr why not the guy who worked so brilliantly with Lawrence rival Joe Burrow in college? Again, Khan and the Jaguars shouldn't care one bit that Brady turned only 32 in September. He helped win a national title in college and has worked well under Sean Payton before the odd dismi sal
Dallas Keuchel Jersey from the Matt Rhule's staff in Carolina, despiteShane Waldron, offensive coordinator, SeahawksMan, with so many worthy replacements, the Jaguars might find it difficult justifying retaining Meyer for Year 2. Waldron, 42, has gonefrom Sean McVay's staff with the Rams right into trying to help Ru sell Wilson into a higher gear, before he and the QB got reined in by more conservative Pete Carroll.Hey, a young Wilson was strong-armed and mobile, too! If the Seahawks can go away from the Bevell-Brian Schottenheimer stodgine s, the Jaguars can, too.Brian Daboll, offensive coordinator, BillsYou've got to be kidding me.The guy who has turned Josh Allen into an elite all-around quarterback is also available? The 46-year-old deserves his shot given the wonders he's worked in Buffalo. He also has invaluable experience with both Nick Saban and Bill Belichick.Scott Turner, offensive coordinator, WashingtonThere seems to be a theme here, doesn't it? Turner, 39, has made Washington's offense spectacular even with Taylor Heinicke at the helm. He's well-pedigreed as Norv
George Springer Jersey 's son and Ron Rivera's protege.Wow, it sounds like any of these younger offensive minds would be an upgrade over Meyer, giving Khan a lot of pros to go with one of them after a failed college try.
