Jacksonville Jaguars Focused, Not Just ‘Pissed Off,’ Heading into Cardinals Matchup
JACKSONVILLE, FL – The Jacksonville Jaguars (6-4) are heading to Arizona this week to face the Cardinals (3-7) with a renewed sense of focus, according to Jaguars Senior Writer John Oehser. In his weekly fan Q&A, Oehser addressed concerns about the team’s consistency and leadership. While acknowledging recent comments about the team playing better when “pissed off,” Oehser believes long-term success comes from maintaining focus, rather than relying on sustained anger.
Questions also arose regarding quarterback Trevor Lawrence’s performance. Oehser defended former Head Coach Doug Pederson’s emphasis on reducing turnovers, countering the sentiment that it hindered Lawrence’s development. He highlighted the importance of consistent passing and a healthy receiving corps in allowing Lawrence to be more effective.
Oehser also addressed concerns about the league’s roughing-the-passer penalty. While acknowledging the current situation is not ideal, he doesn’t foresee the league implementing a system based on judging intent due to the challenges it would create for officiating.
When asked about the Jaguars’ chances of winning the AFC South, Oehser emphasized the importance of focusing on winning games week by week, noting that everything remains on the table if the Jaguars can maintain a winning record. He acknowledged the impact of injuries on the team’s performance, a reality he sees as a critical factor in understanding the dynamics of the NFL.
