JACKSONVILLE \u2013 They looked back, with an eye on looking forward.<\/p>\n
This was the 2025 bye week \u2013 and as Head Coach Liam Coen<\/a> looked to the second “half” of his first season as Jaguars head coach, he called the chance to reassess strengths and weaknesses “huge.”<\/p>\n “Everybody needs a reset,” Coen said, adding that the Jaguars enter the final 10 games of the season with “everything ahead of us.”<\/p>\n Coen on Monday morning spoke to the media a day after the Jaguars’ 2025 bye, reemphasizing what he said last week \u2013 that at a game over .500 through seven games, the Jaguars need not implement major change. Players that afternoon after a one-hour practice at the Miller Electric Center<\/a> agreed, with running back Travis Etienne Jr.<\/a> saying the Jaguars “haven’t played our best ball yet.”<\/p>\n “We’re just shooting ourselves in the foot,” Etienne said.<\/p>\n The Jaguars, after a three-game winning streak moved them into a tie for the best record in the AFC, lost back-to-back game before the bye \u2013 20-12 to the Seattle Seahawks in Jacksonville and 35-7 to the Los Angeles Rams at Wembley Stadium in London.<\/p>\n After trailing just 9:10 in the first four games of the season, the Jaguars led just 7:40 in the two losses leading to the bye.<\/p>\n “We have to find that formula of winning and stick with it,” Etienne said. “We have to come out faster and we have to control the controllables.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"JACKSONVILLE \u2013 They looked back, with an eye on looking forward.
