You could almost hear the grumblings as soon as Greg Olson was announced as the offensive coordinator for the Jacksonville Jaguars before the 2015 season. Articles quickly went to the internet about whether Olson was even a top choice by the Jags, whether he would be a bust, or that he was “well-traveled” and only decent at developing quarterbacks.
The best that Greg Olson could point to before his time with the Jaguars was his 2006 season with the St. Louis Rams, when Marc Bulger led his team to an 8-8 season with the fourth best passing attack and sixth best offense overall.
