Gus Bradley was a nice guy, but his lack of wins poisoned the fan base against him, leading to an outpouring of joy at his dismissal.

The NFL is a league based on results and Bradley simply never delivered. He failed to do enough in his three+ seasons as head coach to warrant continuing his time with the Jacksonville Jaguars.

His 14-48 record is the worst among coaches in modern NFL history. Somehow, miraculously, he clung onto the job despite his lack of wins.

Following his dismissal by the team, Jags fans took to Twitter to revel in the move forward for a franchise that has been in the basement for far too long.

No matter how fans felt – liking Bradley, do anything to get rid of him, etc. – it’s clear that a change needed to be made. The Jags have made that change and the future is now opening up for them.

Jags fans seemed to take the firing in stride as something that was expected. This is no surprise considering the team’s miserable performance over the past four seasons.

Hopefully we’ll see someone new and exciting take over where Gus Bradley left off. He performed his duties with professionalism but a change in attitude and a change in outcome needs to occur or the Jags may risk becoming like the Cleveland Browns.
