Doug Pederson won a Super Bowl with a backup quarterback and turned a perennial loser into a playoff winner in his first season.

Vince Young’s infamous “Dream Team” declaration of the 2011 Philadelphia Eagles came to mind when general manager Howie Roseman added another playmaker to a loaded offense.

While we covered Jacksonville’s best-of Mount Rushmore list, this could be called Mount Bustmore. The players listed wouldn’t appear on any best-of list for the Jaguars. Actually, it’s quite the opposite. These players (and a coach) couldn’t get out of town fast enough.

The Jaguars have found their next head coach — Doug Pederson. So, why did they think he was qualified to take on the faltering franchise?

The Chicago Bears have placed quarterback Justin Fields on the reserve/COVID-19 list, likely sidelining him for the finale and ending his rookie season.

Brady is shooting for his seventh ring when he leads the Buccaneers (14-5) against the reigning champion Chiefs (16-2) in Super Bowl 55 on Sunday. Brady's postseason record includes a 33-11 mark, 14 conference championship appearances and 10 trips to the Super Bowl. If the Bucs dethrone the champs, Mahomes would become the sixth quarterback Brady has beaten multiple times in the playoffs. Although he’s not showing his age, 43, Brady will be the oldest to play in a Super Bowl, displacing Colts kicker Matt Stover, who was 42 in Super Bowl 44. Unlike Warner, he wasn't going to get ahead of himself and talk about anything but the Super Bowl title in front of him.

Now, after nine NFL seasons and little success on the field, the Jacksonville Jaguars owner is taking a more hands-on approach to fixing the franchise's most glaring problems. Khan is handling the search for his next coach and general manager mostly alone, with some help from Jaguars President Mark Lamping. “This time around, I think I have a much better sense myself,” Khan said Monday after firing coach Doug Marrone. “What's evaded the history of the Jags really has been a franchise quarterback,” Khan said. Khan kept Marrone in place after firing general manager Dave Caldwell in late November, but ultimately decided on a clean sweep.

Khan fired Dave Caldwell late last month and made former San Francisco executive Trent Baalke the interim GM. Smith, who spent a dozen seasons as Texans GM, already met with Atlanta and is expected to also interview with Detroit. Jacksonville (1-13), which has lost a franchise-record-tying 13 consecutive games, has arguably the most attractive GM opening in the league. Caldwell and Marrone took a chance on Minshew this season, but the 2019 sixth-round draft pick showed more flaws than flashes.

That 14-yard touchdown run in the third quarter, his second score of the game, put Chicago ahead again by double digits. Every time the Vikings made a push, this once-flailing Bears offense had an answer. Cairo Santos, who converted all four of his kicks, stretched his streak to 22 straight field goals made. The Vikings, who finished 3-5 at home this year, had four goal-to-go situations that yielded only two touchdowns. When the Vikings beat them 19-13 five weeks ago in Chicago, the Bears managed two first-half field goals and needed a kickoff return touchdown by Cordarrelle Patterson to stay competitive.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – The Jacksonville Jaguars are seeing former teammates nearly every week, so many down the stretch that it could be considered a Revenge Tour. Next up: Pittsburgh defensive end Tyson Alualu, a first-round draft pick in 2010 who returns to Jacksonville on Sunday. Alualu spent seven years with the Jaguars (1-8) after then-general manager Gene Smith surprisingly chose him with the 10th overall pick. Jacksonville will face seven more former Jaguars over its next five games:RONNIE HARRISONHarrison returns to Jacksonville on Nov. 29. Chicago gave up a compensatory fourth to get Foles, who started the past seven games for the Bears.

Cousins completed 25 of 36 passes with two touchdowns to Thielen, who has nine on the season.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – Doug Marrone can’t help but chuckle when reminded what he’s had at quarterback during his NFL head coaching career. “At the end of the day, you have to do the best job you can with the players that you have. Minshew has a strained ligament and multiple fractures in his right thumb, according to a person familiar with the situation. The injury could prompt Marrone to turn to rookie Jake Luton after the team’s bye week. The person spoke to The Associated Press on the condition of anonymity Thursday because the Jaguars (1-6) have not disclosed Minshew’s injury publicly.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – Jaguars quarterback Gardner Minshew is battling serious discomfort in his right hand and X-rays this week showed that he has multiple fractures and a strained ligament in his thumb, ESPN reported. According to ESPN’s Adam Schefter, the Jaguars didn’t know about his injury until this week. ESPN reported that Minshew has had the pain in his thumb since a loss to the Texans on Oct. 11. It isn’t known if Minshew will be healthy enough to play when the Jaguars host the Texans on Nov. 8. He has struggled since Week 2 and the Jaguars are mired in a six-game losing streak.

“I don’t ever remember having our own defense score more than our offense,” Nagy said. “That’s that’s that’s hard to do. But the offense has averaged 16 points per game in Foles’ four starts since, and he’s getting little help from the players around him. The offensive line struggled against the strong front of the Rams (5-2), producing just 2.9 yards per carry. Foles was sacked four times, twice at the hands of former Bears linebacker Leonard Floyd, and he threw two interceptions.

Josh Reynolds and Gerald Everett caught touchdown passes from Jared Goff, and the Rams won a matchup of dominant defenses, beating the Bears 24-10. After his first sack, Floyd jumped up and went toward the Bears sideline, shouting and gesticulating at the team that let him go. We’re just one tight unit right now.”The Rams led 10-3 at halftime after holding the Bears to 126 yards. ... TE Tyler Higbee was inactive with a hand injury, missing his second game since 2016.

The three-time MVP was seen screaming on the sideline late in the third quarter after an ugly drive for Tampa Bay. Ryan Succop kicked four field goals, including a 25-yarder to give Tampa Bay a 19-17 lead with 4:49 remaining. Kyle Fuller then put a big hit on Ke'Shawn Vaughn as he caught a short pass, and Robert Quinn recovered the fumble, giving the Bears possession on the Tampa Bay 27.

“To join a team and to be embraced the way that I’ve been embraced — it’s been amazing for me,” Brady said. Brady threw for 369 yards and five touchdowns and helped Tampa Bay overcome a 17-point deficit to beat the Los Angeles Chargers 38-31 last week. Indianapolis won 11 games that season, with Arians going 9-3 as interim coach while Pagano was battling leukemia. Getting it back in gear won't be easy this week, considering Tampa Bay ranks second against the run. “That happened to be a game there, where we were just struggling to get it going," coach Matt Nagy said.

The Falcons surrendered a 16-point advantage in the final 6 1/2 minutes to the Chicago Bears, who got three touchdown passes from backup quarterback Nick Foles and pulled out a 30-26 win on Sunday. It would have seemed downright improbable — if it hadn't happened for the second week in a row. The former Super Bowl MVP won it with a 28-yard touchdown pass to Anthony Miller with 1:53 remaining. He tossed a 3-yard touchdown pass to Graham to make it 26-16 with 6:20 to go. But Foles got his chance after Trubisky threw an interception in the third quarter that led to a Falcons field goal, pushing the lead to 26-10.

The Jaguars are Gardner Minshews team now. Both ESPN and Pro Football Focus have projected the Jaguars to be the leagues worst team. You know, I think we do have a lot to prove. You know, prove that we're not what anybody says about us. Minshew went on to start 12 games and went 6-6.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. Jay Gruden knows that the relationship is important, perhaps the most integral one on the team. Thats why the new Jaguars offensive coordinator cant wait to get to work on the field with quarterback Gardner Minshew, whenever that may be. Gruden met with the media on Tuesday and said that getting to know Minshew off the field has been a priority for him. After watching Minshew play last season, Gruden thinks he has the qualities to lead the Jaguars into the future. But Gruden says that playing in the NFL is about taking advantage of your opportunity and that is what Minshew did last season.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. Its a much different offseason for the Jaguars, but Doug Marrone said that the team is making the best of it. Marrone met with the media Friday afternoon to talk about Jacksonvilles offseason program that has been pushed into the virtual realm due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Marrone said that its challenging to get the full effect of a traditional offseason program when coaches and players arent around one another, but theyre doing the best that they can. The Jaguars will put Ben Bartch, a fourth-round draft pick, at right guard, presumably behind starter AJ Cann. Marrone said that hes enjoyed hearing from players about their work in the offseason, including that of backup quarterback Dobbs.

JACKSONVILLE, FL – About 12 hours after Jaguars owner Shad Khan fired top executive Tom Coughlin, all the clocks inside the building were reset. “We'd love to see coach Marrone stick around and see this through,” Pro Bowl defensive end Calais Campbell. —Defensive end Yannick Ngakoue skipped most of the offseason and part of training camp in a contract dispute that remains unsettled. He tried to fine defensive end Dante Fowler $700,000 for missing "mandatory" appointments with team trainers during the 2018 offseason. Neither did the clocks, players insisted.

The return of Nick Foles was supposed to be the launching point to the second half of the season. Instead, it put a stamp on just how much work lies in front for the Jaguars to become a competitive NFL team. The Jaguars (4-6) needed to close the season out strong to have a shot to reach the playoffs. The pair of 100-yard rushers marked the first time that the Colts had done that in franchise history. Brissett added a 5-yayrd rushing touchdown A 48-yard run by Williams on the following drive set up a Nyheim Hines 7-yard touchdown run and the blowout was on.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. - Sunday, Nick Foles will take the 12th snap of his Jaguars career, 10 weeks after he took 11 snaps in the regular season opener. What kind of a difference will the former Super Bowl MVP make for the Jaguars? Head coach Doug Marrone believes that one place Foles can improve the Jaguars' offense is in the red zone. Under Gardner Minshew, the Jaguars ranked 30th in the NFL in scoring touchdowns from inside the opponents' 20-yard line. "Telling guys that if you think your identity is as a football player, you need to take a step back and realize you are more than a football player," Foles said.

He's set to return Sunday against the Colts after surgery for a broken collarbone. Foles broke his left collarbone in the Jaguars' first game against the Chiefs and had been on injured reserve with a designation to return since. At 4-5 and in a congested AFC South, the Jaguars are still very much in the playoff conversation. The Jaguars slowly incorporated Foles back into practice beginning Oct. 23, with the target date for his return always the Colts game. While Minshew may be the future for the Jaguars, there's no doubt that a healthy Foles is the more consistent choice going forward.

Here are 10 things that Ive learned about the Jaguars through the first nine weeks of the season. If there is one position group that needed a major emergence this season, it was the wide receivers. Will the Jaguars play two regular season home games in London next season. Conveniently, the Jaguars will play four games against those five teams in the final seven weeks of the season. In other words, the Jaguars can play a big role in determining their playoff chances.

Regarding the recent "Invitation to Bid" process initiated by JEA that requires a minimum bid of $3 billion, UNF PORL asked 665 registered voters what minimum price they would accept in order to support selling JEA. A majority, 51%, did not know what minimum price they would be willing to sell JEA for. More than one in five people surveyed volunteered that they would not be willing to sell JEA at any price. Ultimately, the sale of JEA must be put before the voters of Jacksonville prior to the sale being finalized. What the public thinks of Jaguars' QBs, owner, coachThe same survey asked voters about the Jacksonville Jaguars.

The Jaguars originally had player availability scheduled, but scratched that and only made Marrone available to the media. Foles has been on injured reserve since suffering a broken collarbone and undergoing surgery after a Week 1 loss to Kansas City. Minshew filled in for Foles and performed much better than anyone could have expected.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. - The Jaguars lost a critical divisional game against the Texans on Sunday and had a long flight home from London. MARK BRUNELL SHOW: What's next for Gardner Minshew | The quarterback questionMinshew has won four games. He has lost five games, games that were simply too much for the rookie. Last offseason, the Jaguars had one major goal: find a quarterback that could take the team to thenext level. They were looking for a signal caller that could do the unexpected; to win games that nobody expects you to win.

It's time for Doug Marrone to decide who will be taking snaps when the Jaguars take on Indianapolis. Mark Brunell says, "It's time for Nick Foles."

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. - The Jaguars lost a critical divisional game against the Texans on Sunday and had a long flight home from London.

The Jaguars quarterback won his sixth Pepsi Rookie of the Week honor on Friday, continuing his stellar first season in the NFL. Minshew passed for 279 yards and three touchdowns in last week's 29-15 win over the New York Jets. Minshew, a sixth-round draft pick from Washington State, has passed for 1,976 yards and 13 TDs in eight games, including starts in the last seven. Only Arizona quarterback Kyler Murray and New England defensive end Chase Winovich have managed to claim the weekly award from Minshew. Franchise quarterback Nick Foles, who broke his collarbone in Week 1, will be eligible to play in that game.

Here are my four biggest takeaways from Sunday's game:More Minshew MagicMaybe Gardner Minshew hers the talk about Nick Foles regaining his starting job when Foles is eligible to return to the field next month. Minshew made a couple of fantastic plays, including a 70-yard touchdown connection to Chris Conley where Minshew scrambled away from Jamal Adams' safety blitz and connected with the receiver who was running behind the defense. That's a play that Foles probably doesn't make because Minshew is more mobile than Foles. Doug Marrone doesn't have to decide on the quarterbacks yet, but if Minshew plays like he did Sunday next week in London, the decision is not going to be an easy one. I said when this month started that October would define the pathway for the Jaguars season.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. - Jaguars quarterback Nick Foles practiced for the first time Wednesday after missing multiple weeks due to a broken collarbone. Nick Foles back at practice for the first time today since breaking his Collarbone in week 1. The question for the Jags is whether Foles will immediately replace Gardner Minshew in the starting lineup if he's healthy for Week 11. When asked about Foles Doug Marrone said, "I love Nick and all that stuff, but my focus is on the team and trying to win a game." Foles signed a $50 million deal during the offseason only to get hut 10 plays into the regular season.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. - The Jaguars went to Cincinnati and forced four turnovers in a 27-17 win over the winless Bengals. Until Gardner Minshew or Nick Foles shows they are ready to carry the team through the air, the Jaguars need to ride Leonard Fournette. Against the Bengals, the worst rushing defense in the league, Fournette posted his third 100-plus yard rushing games in the last four weeks. The Jaguars struggled in the first half up front but improved in the second half. The Jaguars failed to convert on a fourth-and-goal situation from the 1-yard line in the first half.

Coach Doug Marrone said that the debut of rookie tight end Josh Oliver will come in Sundays game at Cincinnati, and that injured quarterback Nick Foles could return to practice as early as next week. In his absence, rookie Gardner Minshew II emerged and has played well, going 2-3 as a starter and winning four Rookie of the Week awards. The Jaguars placed Foles on injured reserve with a designation to return, meaning he could begin practicing with the team in Week 8. Foles would be eligible to return the play the week of Nov. 10, although the Jaguars have a bye that week. Yeah, we think well be able to get him next Wednesday out at practice, Marrone said.

Can the Jaguars block out the noise for one night and salvage the start of the season? Games against Tennessee usually come down to one key play. In the history of the Jaguars-Titans rivalry, one of two types of plays usually sinks the Jaguars.

JACKSONVILLE, FLA - Four key things the Jaguars must do to beat the Texans. The season opening lost to Kansas City left the Jaguars without their starting quarterback, after Nick Foles broke his collarbone. Given obvious passing situations, the Texans defense can get creative with pressure and coverage, a perfect formula to force a rookie quarterback into mistakes. The Jaguars would seem to have the personnel, even with all of the injuries, to harass Texans quarterback Deshaun Watson. Last week, the Jaguars tried to get too cute against the Chiefs offense, according to defensive coordinator Todd Wash.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. - He's the new face of the Jacksonville Jaguars and barely even has one official game under his belt: new starting quarterback Gardner Minshew. Since then, Minshew has become a source of both praise and debate among the Jacksonville fan base. Jaguars Nation is seemingly split on whether the young quarterback can be the sensation the team has been waiting for. But Jaguars fan Anish Dabhi said he's already all in with Minshew. Now, Jaguars fans will have to wait for more merchandise and to see if the rookie can cut it.

(George Varkanis, News4Jax)JACKSONVILLE, Fla. - When Nick Foles was injured, it forced the Jaguars to hand the keys to the offense to the man with the marvelous mustache, Gardner Minshew. In his first NFL game, he threw two touchdowns and set a franchise record for completion percentage. He had a scholarship offer from UAB, but then UAB suspended its program. Even with Minshew now starting, the Jaguars still have playoff aspirations and Nick Foles cannot return until Week 11.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. - The Jaguars started over at quarterback in the offseason and now get to do it all over again. Coach Doug Marrone said that they're ready for the challenge. "I think when anyone looks at it, I think the challenge is, Hey listen, we have to repeat this. Offensive tackle Cam Robinson, who hyperextended his knee during practice last week, is still working on getting back into practice. "I think that if you sit up here and you say you are not, I don't think that's accurate."

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. - It was a tough weekend for the Jaguars and equally so for the family of quarterback Nick Foles, whose wife posted to Instagram on Monday about her husband's successful shoulder surgery. The franchise quarterback's debut with the team came to a grinding halt when he took a rough hit after throwing a 35-yard touchdown pass to DJ Chark. Foles suffered a broken left clavicle and received surgery for the injury Monday. Foles' wife, Tori, posted photos from the game to Instagram Monday, saying the surgery was successful but acknowledging it was a rough weekend for the family. Foles said the injury "was worse" than the one he suffered in 2014.

The Jaguars placed Nick Foles on injured reserve on Monday following successful surgery for a broken collarbone.

Players who receive the injured reserve with a designation to return must spend eight weeks on the injured list before being allowed to return. Foles would reach eight weeks on the injured list on Nov. 10, although the Jaguars have a bye that week. To back up Minshew, the Jaguars traded a fith-round pick to the Steelers for third-string quarterback Josh Dobbs.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. - Could the start to the 2019 season have been any worse for the Jaguars? Sure, a 40-26 loss to the Chiefs is disappointing, but how that defeat played out is about as agonizing as possible. Let's start with the most obvious thing and that's the injury to Nick Foles. I know it's early, and I know we were playing Patrick Mahomes, but the defense couldn't get off the field. The Jaguars travel to Houston next to play a tough Texans team.

Bbut at the same time I'm going to stay positive and trust the good Lord in this time," Foles said. For comparison, Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers suffered a broken collarbone in 2013 and missed seven games. Foles has endured a rash of injuries in his career, including a broken collarbone in 2014 and a broken right hand in 2012.

(George Varkanis, News4Jax)JACKSONVILLE, Fla. - The Jaguars opened the 2019 season with one of the worst quarters of football imaginable. Preseason matters: Especially early in the game, the Jaguars looked like a team adjusting to the speed and intensity of the regular season opener. By the time the Jaguars got their first score, the Chiefs had already taken control. It landed in the waiting arms of DJ Chark who made an over-the-shoulder grab for the Jaguars first touchdown of the year.

Coach Doug Marrone said that left tackle Cam Robinson suffered a knee injury in Thursday's practice and is listed as doubtful to play.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. - Some thoughts from the Jaguars' Thursday night preseason game, a 22-7 loss to Miami. That's what they are supposed to do and that's exactly what we can expect from Allen in 2019. As this preseason progresses, it's hard to think of any NFL team that has a better defensive front than the Jaguars. You can expect that, once again, none of the starters will play the final preseason game. And I hope, regardless of game reps, that the Jaguars will be ready Week 1 against the Chiefs.

SLOW STARTThe Dolphins didn't have a first down until their fourth possession, when the Jaguars jumped offside on third and five.

Starting offense: The Jaguars saw Nick Foles play into the second quarter, taking 19 snaps. That's what you would expect from the Jaguars' defense against a Dolphins' offense that isn't expected to be very potent this season. We aren't likely to see the starting offense on the field together in a game setting until then.

Even after Thursday night's 29-0 preseason clunker to Baltimore, I've got the same answer to the question that I had before.
