The Jacksonville Jaguars are the latest team to find themselves connected to free-agent head coach Bill Belichick.

The Jags are one of three 0-3 teams entering Week 4. Jacksonville's offense ranks 30th in points scored and 27th in yards -- not a great representation of the offensive-minded Pederson.
"This is who we are right now," Pederson told reporters after Monday night's loss, per a team-provided video. "And it's not very good."

The Jaguars aren't the only ones who have been connected to Belichick, of course. Both the 2-1 Philadelphia Eagles and 1-2 Dallas Cowboys continue to surface in social media speculation given their respective starts.
