Liam Coen could not have set the highest bar

Liam Coen has been a chief coach at the National Football League, why, several hours now, and has already established impossiblely high expectations for himself. As we all know, in sports your reputation is not in the success verifiable as much as in convincing people that you were better than it should have been. And for that, Coen can thank the Jaguars of Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Jacksonville, demonstrating once again that when you are looking strange, you are looking at Florida.

No one outside the other area of ​​the bay, I knew Coen a lot before last week, but he is attributed in this way coach for the revival of Baker Mayfield. And of course, why not? Mayfield was authentically large under the direction of Coen this season after almost leaving the League in the previous years; The Bucs did not matter, then they did. The credit extends as painting when a bad offensive team becomes a good one, and that will tend to benefit the type that is only known as front with a hat that speaks in a Denny individual tablecloth. That is Coen.

When the BURs passed from the 20s to the first five in total offensive, scoring, hurrying, passing, conversions of third attempt and efficiency of the red zone, Coen was promoted to the official marshal of Whisperer after only his first season in the job. It also became the logical heir of the crown of “Who is the next hot training prospect?” This happens a lot, and it usually corresponds to these hot perspectives to move rapidly; Another year is another opportunity to curdle or freeze in something much more paralyzed and end up in a job such as offensive coordinator in Kentucky, which was Coen’s 2023 concert. Coen, when making his move from Tampa to Jacksonville and as a coordinator to chief coach, became the first of those types of hot training to convince a team to fire his possible supervisor as an appearance so that he takes the job. This suggests a stranger of rank that will be better that Bill Walsh is the first day and only improves from there. “We love you so much that we will encrypt your boss” is a call that will touch any head.

In this case, Coen had been interviewed by the Jaguars, but seemed impressed enough to apparently accept, but crucial, not to sign, a new agreement in Tampa that presumably would have made it the apparent heir to the current coach in Chief Todd Bowles and quite rich by coordinator standards. But the Jags, whose records in the era owned by Shahid Khan are 8-8, 5-11, 2-14, 4-12, 3-13, 5-11, 3-13, 10-6, 5-11 , 6 -10, 1-15, 3-14, 9-8, 9-8 and 4-13, were desperate to have Coen at any price, and apparently returned to him and offered the head of the general manager Trent Baalke in A cake box like another incentive. And that, convinced of Coen.

Now, the JAGS are a clown show so deeply bold that their existence steals the dignity of the promotion of the professional struggle of their owners; It was not a surprise that they were as willing to do this as they did. They had already fired chief coach Doug Pederson the day after the last season of 4-13, but they kept Baalke, the architect of that experience, presumably to find the next Pederson. The Khans, Shad and Tony, apparently decided they had found their pedson in Coen; Apparently, Coen found the environment strangely without charm that follows Baalke wherever he becomes repellent and wins; The Khans had to decide who was more important and did.

This was handled with Oafishly, but it wasn’t really unusual. Baalke was a polarizing figure in the Gran De-Hardough of the 49ers of 2014, taking the side of the Jed York owner in his dispute with Jim as would do any type of professional career. Once Harbaugh got his roles, Baalke supervised the decomposition of that franchise until the moment he was finally fired because the public often kicked. Five years out of football later, Baalke was hired by the Khans and immediately hired Urban Meyer, such an absurd decision that continues to reign as the ideas of Zenith of Yahoo Football Man. Pederson went up on board after that and gathered those two seasons Winners, but crawled this year, which left Baalke in charge of executing a new coaches cars. Little knew he was about to be the one who was washed.

But there were some skillfully misleading dances that were carried out first, all of which made everyone involved be sordid enough to fit the NFL. According to a report that is too specific to the outstanding NFL reporter and Ohio Albert Breer state chordist, this obtained even for NFL ownership standards:

“This began before Coen did his first interview about videoconference with the Jaguars. Knowing that he was approaching and believed that Coen had a real opportunity at work, the general manager of the Buccaneers Jason Licht approached his offensive coordinator to ask exactly what would be needed for Coen for Coen. Less, get the experience of having done one. “

Coen did it, and did well enough to land among the last three candidates of the Jags. In Breer’s narration, Coen’s offer from Tampa Bay stipulated that he withdrew from Jacksonville’s candidacy before that second round of interviews; Coen requested more money in exchange for abandoning the Jaguars process, the Glazers specified and asked for an answer in their offer for Monday; Coen asked for an extension until Tuesday, then on Wednesday.

But back to.

“It was not long after the news of (Baalke’s shot) arose, which changed everything about the search for Coen by Jacksonville. Wednesday afternoon, and COEN is expected to be in 1 Buccaneer Place for Sign his agreement, the Brass team’s efforts to obtain (Hold) of Coen Falló. He was being finished. The opening.

The JAGS only needed the Coen agreement to continue being a secret so they could satisfy the empty shell of the NFL Rooney rule, which met when they interviewed the defensive coordinator of the Raiders, Patrick Graham. And then the leaks began, including that of the “personal matter” that Coen’s wife, Ashley, found objectable. When wading in the C -SUPPORT POZO that is X, she wrote in defense of her husband who had taken her son to a hospital to see a specialist for her son’s autoimmune disease. She closed her message with a not very very Christian “please, do not disseminate the wrong information and assume because you heard a side”, which leads a sensible person to wonder if that side was not being provided by the abandoned burs.

All this Breeian detail is just to show how desperate the Jaguars were to undo a treatment made with a team that does not impact them in any way and seal another for themselves, even if it does meant shooting someone much higher in the hierarchical order . In other words, Liam Coen does not only have the minimal bars of Meyer and Pederson to clear, but also the still burnt skull of Baalke and the anger of the double -deal bounds as their one -day legacy. Having the launch weight for your boss to contain as part of your treatment is an impressive way to start the career of a chief coach, but suggests that this hiring works much better than Urban Bleeping Meyer.

And Coen has to do all this luggage, it has to make all this worthwhile, while working with the list of the Jaguars and the proud story of the single -round -round draft selections. If only the Jags had done it as the cowboys and the raiders are, going after training the candidates (Brian Schottenheimer and Pete Carroll) without any offer or leverage competitors. Life is much easier in the halls that do not have other buyers.
