What Went Wrong With The 2023 Jaguars?

In this video, I deep dive the statistics around the 2023 Jaguars, in an attempt to understand the fall from #1 Seed to missing the playoffs entirely. This is part 2 of a 3 part series on the Jaguars, and in part 3 we will both give our 2024 expectations for the team.

In Week 2 I could tell that they were running _none_ of the plays they were running in '22. About week 12 I discovered that yes indeed Doug Pederson handed off the play-calling to the OC Press Taylor. Sorry, but this doesn't require a multi-part series. Either Andy Reid affects outcomes or you can replace him with Adam Gase. Play-calling affects _EVERYTHING._ Good QB play followed Canales to Tampa Bay & suddenly the same receivers Geno surprised everyone with last season couldn't run the right way on any routes this season nor could he connect to the 2 new ones. Almost identical to what happened to the Jags.

Play calling is extremely important, but as someone who had limited access to viewing Jaguars games throughout the past few seasons, it wasn’t something I was super in tune with for this team. The Dave Canales story is definitely one I caught onto, and I am very interested in the turnaround from a Frank Reich Team, a coach who has served his tenure and shown his flaws, to a coach who is on the up and coming and what Canales can do for Bryce Young

@@FranchiseTagged That's fine. No pressure. This was a roundabout way of getting at whether it's something you know about. Me, I don't know what the plays are called, but I can see things regardless & only returned to watching the NFL *because* I found channels that do look into that aspect of things. Take kzbin.info/www/bejne/a3uyYoOpqtV5lbc for instance. If you actually count how many times each QB is off by inches or miles, Fields' college footage is _WAY_ better than that of Caleb Williams. People try to dismiss this as saying "anyone could succeed with _that_ roster." Well Burrow Had JaMarr Chase in college, no? Amazing how people stick to their memes despite evidence. Knowing the effects of play-calling can help determine what you're looking at. Did Fields become timid & regress or did the Bears _REALLY_ do a number on him? & also, you'd have known what went wrong in JAX this past season.
