Another terrible news hit the jaguars head coach Doug Pederson  has  a sorrowfully announced…

The Jacksonville Jaguars are struggling, having dropped their last four games, and Trevor Lawrence may not be able to play after sustaining yet another injury in Week 16.

Everyone will have a finger of blame to point at while the Jags try to right the ship. Press Taylor, the new offensive coordinator, has come under fire for the offense’s shortcomings all season long.

Pederson defended Taylor once more on Tuesday, pointing out that the offense’s inability to settle into a rhythm has been seriously hampered by the four turnovers on Sunday, three of which came from Lawrence (two interceptions and a fumble). The coach included defensive missed tackles in the mix of the team’s problems.

According to Jags Wire, Pederson stated, “I know, being around this league, everybody wants to point the finger somewhere.” “The way we handle football needs to be improved. The plays are not the focus. We need to take better care of the football and improve our tackling. In summary, we have a chance to win football games if we follow those guidelines.”

Lawrence has given up eight points in the last three weeks despite dealing with a long list of injuries (three fumbles lost and five interceptions from Weeks 14–16).

Pederson pointed out that coaches bear some of the blame for the issues, as they are often the ones to correct persistent misunderstandings. Miscommunication issues led to both INTs on Sunday, per Pederson.

“We always give Trevor some outs when it comes to the passing game, particularly on third down, and we just missed the signal,” said Pederson. “Those are the unattainable things. Once more, it worsens the play. It is the coaches’ responsibility, in my opinion, to ensure that their players are ready for the game by covering them during practice and meetings so that everyone’s attention is on the quarterback.

“We must carry that out. We need to get out of bad plays and into better ones. There must be a lot of hand signals and nonverbal communication. We need to improve, and we will keep reviewing and including it in our strategy.”

The Colts and Texans’ losses have kept the Jaguars atop the AFC South, despite their four-game losing streak. If the team leads the Panthers and loses to the Raiders and Titans in Houston, Pederson’s team can win the division this week.

With Lawrence sidelined due to a shoulder injury, the Jags may have to start C.J. Beathard at center in the crucial game. Lawrence might not be able to play against Carolina on Sunday after Jacksonville added Matt Barkley to the 53-man roster on Tuesday.
