2013 was a hell of a year for the Jacksonville Jaguars. They went 4-12 in head coach Gus Bradley’s – something that general manager Dave Caldwell likened to a miracle in his season ending press conference in 2015 – and the defense was the worst the team had ever fielded.
That 2013 was a bit of a surprise for some people, especially given Bradley’s pedigree as a defensive coordinator and position coach. But, as explained by Caldwell and Bradley, the focus was on getting some young guys playing time and on getting a solid foundation built.
