I don’t think I’ve ever heard an NFL coach talk about “calming things down” this late in the season because the personnel he is working with has changed so much. That was the message Jaguars defensive coordinator Todd Wash delivered when he spoke with the media Thursday afternoon at TIAA Bank Field.
As the Jaguars prepare to face the Oakland Raiders this Sunday on the West Coast, the roster is still adjusting to change. Injuries have played a huge part in how porous the defense has been this year, most notably in the middle of the field with the team’s linebackers.
