The Jacksonville Jaguars enter this year as they have so many times—too many times—in the past: filled with hope, optimism, and an early, promising draft pick after coming off a disappointing season. It's been the storyline for Jaguars fans for too long. Maybe this coach will fix it, or this draft pick, or this free agent signing.
That's not to besmirch the offseason acquisitions. Head coach Liam Coen—despite his lackluster "Duval" to start things off—looks like the real deal. New general manager James "Intangibly Rich" Gladstone (I told you I'd change his nickname) seems to have made all the right moves.
