Doug Pederson spoke Monday morning at the NFL owner’s meeting in Orlando, saying that he’ll probably never come to terms with Jacksonville’s woeful finish to the 2023 season. The Jaguars were viewed as a potential Super Bowl contender. Instead, they melted down under the pressure.
Jacksonville Jaguars head coach Doug Pederson talks with reporters during an AFC coaches availability at the NFL owners meetings, Monday, March 25, 2024, in Orlando, Fla. Pederson spoke Monday morning at the NFL owner’s meeting in Orlando, saying that he’ll probably never come to terms with Jacksonville’s woeful finish to the 2023 season. The Jaguars were viewed as a potential Super Bowl contender.
The Jaguars were playing for the No. 1 seed in the AFC when the Bengals and backup quarterback Jake Browning came into town for Monday Night Football in Week 13. It was Jacksonville’s first prime-time game in 12 years.The Jaguars lost five of their final six games, mustering their lone win over the Panthers, the league’s worst team. The issues were far too many to list, from lack of leadership to too much finger-pointing to regression from players on both sides of the ball.
“This is the culture that I want to establish in Jacksonville and this is the reason why you go get guys like Mitch Morse and Arik Armstead and the’s and guys that have been to the postseason,” Pederson said. “These guys have been captains on their teams and they’ve been to Super Bowls, they’ve been to AFC championship games. These guys know how to win and that’s the influx of talent that we want to bring onto our young roster.
“Yeah, as a coach, you’re hopeful that’s the motivation. The way we finished the last month and a half is not our standard and it’s not what we talk about. It goes against everything we talk about, really,” Pederson said. “We still had opportunities all the way to the 18th week of the regular season. We’re there at the end, we just got to figure out a way to push through that envelope and be there and credit to Houston, they battled their tails off all year.
