Jaguars linebacker Myles Jack believes the dysfunction that reigned throughout the season significantly impacted their performance on the field.
The Urban Meyer era earlier this season clearly was a distraction from the viral videos from a Columbus, Ohio bar showing a woman, not his wife, dancing up close on him to his decision not to fly back with the team after their 24-21 loss to the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 4.
''I'd say that this organization, that dysfunction leads to us beating ourselves,'' Jack said Thursday. ''We have to tighten up a lot of the little things that end up becoming big things, you know what I mean. So if I was like to say what needs to be fixed that would be it.''
On the field, the Jaguars couldn't seem to get out of their own way from coverage busts, too many men on the field penalties, turnovers and dropped passes. With the season finale scheduled for Sunday against the Indianapolis Colts at TIAA Bank Field, the Jaguars fan base are fed enough with the 2021 season of fiasco's that a potential significant number are planning to show up for Sunday's game in clown outfits.
Asked what are some of the attributes he would like to see in the Jaguars' next head coach, Jack said they just want someone who is all about winning.
''We just need No. 1, a leader of men,'' Jack said. ''Somebody, when they say something, it holds weight. Like is everything detailed, you can tell like it is a finished product. No. 2, it's got to be somebody who is just about ball. You know what I mean? It's about winning. We just got to win. All that player-friendly and he's a nice coach, we don't really care about all that.''
