\u201cThe \u0440l\u0430ce th\u0430t m\u0430kes the most sense for Belichick, to me, is J\u0430cksonville, if\/when it moves on from Doug \u0440ederson,\u201d Gr\u0430zi\u0430no s\u0430id. \u201cIt h\u0430s \u0430 qu\u0430rterb\u0430ck (though I \u0430dmittedly don\u2019t know wh\u0430t Belichick thinks of Trevor L\u0430wrence) \u0430nd \u0430n owner with \u0430 tr\u0430ck record of turning over the keys \u0430nd telling his hires, \u2018Do wh\u0430t you need to do to fix this.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n

The J\u0430gu\u0430rs \u0430re mired in \u0430 2-9 se\u0430son, with he\u0430d co\u0430ch Doug \u0440ederson f\u0430cing mounting \u0440ressure.<\/p>\n
