After a 13-39 record heading into Week 6, the optimistic, bubbly personality of Gus Bradley was grating on plenty of Jacksonville Jaguars fans.
Since arriving in Jacksonville, Bradley went from the demanding, intense coordinator he was for the Seattle Seahawks into some kind of tame version that essentially smiled through everything while the Jags became a bit of a dumpster fire. The sky was falling in the midst of a massive rebuild but everything Bradley talked about was upbeat and positive.
The narrative simply didn’t match the reality.
The Jags were being beat down again and again and again.
