Let Zimmer know now that he is not part of the plan next year so we can get a jump on interviews and candidates.
With the NFL's new rules allowing clubs to begin interviewing candidates on Tuesday, Dec. 28, the Jags can start their search in earnest this week.
NFL Network Insider Ian Rapoport reported Sunday on NFL GameDay Morning that the initial list of candidates the Jags are interested in interviewing includes Buccaneers offensive coordinator Byron Leftwich, and former head coaches Jim Caldwell and Doug Pederson.
Leftwich, the former Jaguars first-round pick in 2003, has ties to Jacksonville from his playing days. The OC is expected to be a hot candidate this year after helping lead a Bucs offense that enters Week 16 ranked first in the NFL in scoring.
I just dont get Leftwich as a hot candidate....Me thinks he's the benefactor of having that cast on offense, especially Brady.
Fangio & LaFleur (AHC) combo to me would be best.
Fangio takes over the defense, LaFleur is the future HC
Leftwich is worthy of consideration. We really need to find an innovative offensive mind that can take this team to the next level, and they may be forced to do it with Mond at QB. No way Cousins will be back at his $45 million cap hit next year, and I don't see him willing to take a pay cut. He put up good numbers this season and will definitely get a team to pony up a hefty new contract for him after he is cut.

We can't cut him his Cap hit would only be $45 million of the $45 million. Only way out is a trade where we pick up a chunk of the money most likely.

At the bold:
Someone is finally seeing the opportunity missed. Mond did/has not improved enough to dress up for a single game let alone play and we are going to turn the offense over to him?
Imagine if we would have drafted a higher ranked QB?
I have been with Mike O. all along. Zim and Rick should have been let go at least two years ago.

I dont like Leftwich either as I also think he’s a Brady benefactor. Their running plays never look right and then look at their receiving weapons. He may be good, I just lean towards the group of guys on offense making him look good
We were, and still are, locked in on the $45 million to Cousin's even if we drafted Fields or Mac. The only way out is a trade, and that takes 2 to tango, or another renegotiation (I puked a little in my mouth).
With Cousin's 45 million hit we are already the team most over the CAP for 2022 according to Spotrac.
He has us by the nads and he is asking us to cough, mask free

Fairly certain it’s the Saints who are the team most over 2022 cap. Vikes are 4th?
KC's future here is so tied into what they do @ HC and GM...
I can even fathom pondering the QB position till I know whether Zimmer is returning or not.
Nope, I still dont think its a done deal he's gone after this season. Even after today.
