Fans of the Jacksonville Jaguars were thrilled to welcome Liam Coen as the new head coach of the team after the Doug Pederson debacle last season. Pederson had a good enough background, especially having taken the Philadelphia Eagles to a 2018 Super Bowl victory, and initially, he brought the Jaguars to the playoffs. But things only got worse and worse, ultimately collapsing in 2023 and never really recovering. Coen's hiring has been widely celebrated as giving Jacksonville a legitimate opportunity to regain their position atop the AFC South.
It wasn't all smooth sailing, though.
