Episode 97: Texans/Jaguars Week 4 Analysis - Head Coaching Candidates for the Future

Is Doug Pederson's tenure with the Jaguars already in jeopardy just a few weeks into the season? Join us on the Touchdown Jaguars podcast as we dissect the team's ongoing struggles, focusing on their latest heart-wrenching loss to the Houston Texans. We kick off with raw reactions to the Jaguars' winless record heading into October, an unexpected scenario for a team that had higher hopes. We scrutinize head coach Doug Pederson's controversial post-game comments and explore whether they are creating internal friction. Our in-depth discussion also brings forth potential coaching candidates who might revitalize the Jaguars' energy and management style.

Our analysis continues with a deep dive into the defensive lapses and missed opportunities that plagued the Jaguars during their recent defeat. Key performances are highlighted, such as Tank Bigsby's remarkable 58-yard run and the increased targeting of Brian Thomas Jr. and Christian Kirk. Despite these efforts, the team's inability to capitalize on crucial moments, compounded by defensive lapses against CJ Stroud, left fans in dismay. Praise is given where it's due, with standout performances from Ventrell Miller and Monteric Brown, but the bigger question remains: can the Jaguars iron out their defensive scheme issues before it's too late?

Finally, we turn our attention to Doug Pederson's puzzling coaching decisions and their broader implications for the team. From the mishandling of Tank Bigsby's potential to Trevor Lawrence's mechanical struggles, we cover it all. We also ponder potential replacements for Pederson, while debating the urgency of making coaching changes. As we look ahead to a challenging stretch of games, the timing of these decisions could make or break the Jaguars' season. Tune in to explore the frustrations, solutions, and the road ahead for the Jacksonville Jaguars.

James Johnson and Phil Smith bring you the best and most up to date Jacksonville Jaguars news. "Touchdown Jaguars!" is a tribute to the prospective ownership group "Touchdown Jacksonville!" In 1991, the NFL announced plans to add two expansion teams and "Touchdown Jacksonville!" announced its bid for a team, and Jacksonville was ultimately chosen as one of five finalists. In November 1993, the NFL owners voted 26–2 in favor of awarding the 30th franchise to Jacksonville. James and Phil have been fans of the franchise ever since and have had the honor (and sometimes dishonor) of covering the team professionally since 2017. The rest as they say, is history.
