Is it time for the Jaguars to shake things up at the top? On this episode of the Touchdown Jaguars podcast, we return from our break to dissect the highs and lows of a tumultuous season for the Jacksonville Jaguars. Phil Smith and James Johnson are here to break down the final game against the Indianapolis Colts, spotlighting standout rookie receiver Brian Thomas Jr. and the defense's struggle against Jonathan Taylor. The cornerback concerns with Tyson Campbell and Monteric Brown are on the table, as well as the strategic alterations needed for future divisional matchups.

Reflecting on a 4-13 season marred by narrow defeats, we ponder the alternate reality of a winning record and discuss why the team opted against a total reset. Leadership decisions come under scrutiny, with Shad Khan's choice to part ways with head coach Doug Pederson while retaining GM Trent Baalke stirring controversy and fan frustration.

The coaching carousel is spinning, and the Jaguars are in the thick of it. We examine the challenges of the current coaching search, from the impact of management controversies to the allure of seasoned coaches like Pete Carroll and Mike Vrabel. We speculate on high-profile names like Mike Tomlin and how they could reshape the franchise's future. Join us as we unpack these complex dynamics, evaluate leadership potentials, and consider what's next for the Jaguars and their devoted fan base.

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.
