Coughlin out in Jville
-
I don't know quite what to make of it. I wanted him back at Jags and thought he would bring discipline and order. He did, but maybe too much. After a great 2017 (his 1st year back), the last 2 years were bad. There are all kinds of reports of him being too extreme in dealings with players, way too much a hard @ss. Unless Dorsey is canned, no sense in discussing him coming to da Land. And I'm not sure his way is effective in 2020. He loosened up in NY a tad (as head coach) and did win two rings, but it appears as EVP, he transgressed to being overly rigid and red @ssed.

He violated the collective bargaining agreement by fining players for missing things that were strictly voluntary. The union had to file a grievance to get the money back....and the union basically was telling its members that they should not be signing with JAX if/when they become FAs. That is why he got the can. Besides, he is 73 years old. Time to hang it up.

I don't really have a problem with him getting rid of players that dog it. I think we needed more of that attitude at the beginning of this season. But he's too old

Coughlin is not even remotely useful as an executive. He was forced into trading one of the best CB's, ramsey. JAX can also thank him for the next several millions of dollars thrown into the air and burned in the general direction of Nick Foles.
And he let Robinson go. And he signed Norwell. And he wasted way too much time on Bortles.
Fun fact: Over 25% of all NFLPA player grievances came just from JAX.

And that latter fact is what got the union to tell its players not to go there.

Yikes.
I can't believe that team is still in Jacksonville. What were the cities that lost out on getting that expansion team?

There were 5 cities bidding: Baltimore was one...and, of course, later, they got Modell to try to move there. St. Louis....which did get the Rams, but has since lost them... And Memphis......where the Oilers originally played when they left Houston, but their bid was usurped by Nashville ultimately getting the Oilers.
And JAX and Charlotte, which were chosen.

Jville has not been a bad NFL city. Like anywhere, when they win, they get fans to show.

And when they don't win- remember the tarps covering the upper levels? MHO is Jacksonville should never have gotten a franchise in the first place, too small a market. Not with Tampa and Miami already NFL cities in Florida. Unfortunately, I believe they have a Cleveland level poison pill stadium lease, meaning relocating them would be difficult if not impossible in the near future.

Well, the home situation in Jax is such that they have contracted to play at least one or two games each year in London.

But you think Pitt deserves an NFL team, right? Every year Jville gets more fans to go to games than the Steelers do. So now what?
Oh, and guess who outdrew the Browns that last full season on record? Oh that's right, the Jags out -pulled the Browns in 2018. So should we remove
the Browns out of Cleveland again. Basing it on what you assert, it's time to move the Browns to London; Jville fills more seats than Cleveland does.

Now, with the facts coming out, it is beyond obvious Tom had to go. His Nazi level fining players was so over-the-top.

And by that same link, both had more attendance than Pittsburgh did. Or the Washington Redskins. A lot of that depends on the capacity of the stadiums they play in....home and road. Cowboys have a 90K stadium. Others have capacities that are only 50-60K. I mean, the Jags were #10 overall per your link. That does not make them the 10th most popular team in the league.
-
Browns stadium is only ranked 20th in the NFL in capacity:

Remember also, that next year there will be 2 new stadiums in the league: Vegas/LA.
-
The Patriots should be punished and moved to London for two years for the Spygate 2 crime.
Have Kraft pay for the season ticket holders flights and lodging.
Now that would be a punishment. Losing a draft pick and a million bucks isn't going to make a difference in their ways.

No but it does dispel the myth that they don't have support.
