Millen & Guadin had this info from Shaq before the game...

...as usual FJ Person is the last one to the party 🤦‍♂️🤣

Similar to the Cam article you've pointed to a few times now, what else would Shaq really say in this situation? Did any Jaguars players make public pre-firing comments (or any at all) about Meyer even with the extreme situation going on there? Point being that even when it would be pretty fair to make public comments negative in nature the vast majority of players won't do it.

FWIW, David Newton's quote also makes it look like Shaq said 'we', with no specific mention of Rhule. I haven't heard it so have no direct knowledge but the word choice could be interesting if the question was about Rhule specifically and Shaq didn't refer to him. Or maybe it's nothing.

Absolutely!

There were a number of public outbursts/incidents...James Robinson, Marvin Jones, Trevor Lawrence and Josh Lambo just for starters!!

I'll say this, on the excuse-making front you Gone Guys are as flexible as Nadia Comaneci in her hey-day....a Triple Lindy dismount off the high-bar is old hat for you guys!

Now, you name some names...

...here are a few who are on-the-record with Rhule:

Oh, meant to address this too...

...in case you didn't notice Cam's comments were "unsolicited"...

...for those keeping score at home that means they weren't given in response to a reporter's question -- but rather, offered up extemporaneously as he knew it was the proper thing to do.

Key phrase for you to zero in on:  "...unsolicited defense..."

Please direct me to the comments you're referencing with the Jags like Robinson, Jones, and Lawrence, as all I'm aware of are professional/non-confrontational comments even given the nonsense Meyer was pulling. Lambo was no longer a Jaguar when he made his so he has no real stake at that point and even then it seemed more factual than anything.

All of what you linked here still has to be taken with a grain of salt, and Boston's comments in particular were from June 2020 before Rhule had even coached a training camp practice. That has zero bearing at this point, as again, what else was he going to say?

Nuance is important, pay attention...

..."incidents/outbursts"...

...no "comments" needed -- res ipsa loquitur.

These are signs of a coach "losing" the locker-room, surely you're already aware of all those situations?

      Brooks RB, Placed on PUP, Out for 2025

      By pantherclaw · Posted

      Every team does it's homework. More so than any fan.  Brooks, had he not been injured, would have been a first round talent.  I have zero problems with the team (Dan Morgan and company) drafting Brooks in the 2nd.  He is a fantastic talent.  As far as risk, this is the NFL.  Any and every player is exposed to the same brutality that the NFL is.  Despite Brooks latest setback, it doesn't cost the team much.  Our running back room is stacked.  Could they have drafted someone else? Sure. No promise that someone else would have made an impact last year.  Or this year.   When it's your job to do what Dan does, I pray you get it all right. Lord knows that there isn't a single GM that gets it all right.

      Dang, we might not be able to create the same magic from last year!

      Brooks RB, Placed on PUP, Out for 2025

      If we were a solid winning organization most of us would have no problems with this selection. We would have had a capable starter in place to allow him to be eased into the rotation. If were told prior to the draft that he had been completely cleared health wise, we "probably" wouldn't have a ton of reservations about this selection. If we had picked this young man on Day 3 of the draft most of us would have no problems with this selection because we wouldn't have had to use draft capital to move up and get him. Unfortunately, none of the above were true 1)  We were a terrible team in 2023 and needed an immediate impact player. 2)  He was hurt near the the end of the 2023 NCAA season. We traded up to get him even though we knew he wasn't medically cleared to play in 2024. 3) When training camp started we were hearing stories that the knee wasn't ready. That alone should have raised some red flags. I personally would have red-shirted him in 2024 in order to have him ready for 2025. We had Chubba as our lead back and other guys to fill the #2 and #3 spots on the depth chart. There was no need to rush Brooks unto the field in 2024. Here's our draft history in the 2nd round between 2021 and 2024 2021 TMJ 2022 No draft choice. We picked Matt Corall in round 3 (#94) as our only Day 2 pick. 2023 Jonathan Mingo 2024 Jonathon Brooks. We have taken 4 skill players on Day 2 of the draft for the past 4 years who have contributed absolutely nothing to the offensive side of the football. 3 are no longer on the team. Two of them are no longer in the NFL. One  could possibly never start a game due to a knee injury. This type of poor drafting is why this team has been so bad for the entire decade.
