JACKSONVILLE, Fla. -- After watching his offense mostly struggle for seven games, Jacksonville Jaguars coach Gus Bradley lost faith that coordinator Greg Olson could turn it around.So Bradley made a change. Bradley fired Olson on Saturday, two days after an embarrassing loss at Tennessee in which the Jaguars (2-5) failed to score in the first half for the third time this season.Bradley addressed the move Monday, calling it difficult but necessary.I just felt like the offense needed to be stimulated more in certain areas, he said. I just think with our team and where were at right now, the direction we wanted to go, we just wanted to have a little bit of a different vision. ... I just couldnt grasp in my mind that the results are going to change if we continue going in this direction.The Jaguars rank 26th in the NFL in total offense. They are 31st in rushing and last in third-down percentage.Bradley promoted quarterbacks coach Nate Hackett to replace Olson. Hackett will call plays when the Jaguars play at Kansas City (5-2) on Sunday. Hackett spent two years (2013-14) as Buffalos offensive coordinator. Now, hes the third in three years for Jaguars quarterback Blake Bortles.Its been crazy. Its been an emotional roller-coaster, Hackett said. Its hard to have him go. And then its almost hard that Im also very excited, `Oh wow, this is exciting! And then you feel guilty being excited and then you realized we have a game in seven days and the players are like, `Oh gosh, whos this guy? Whats he going to be doing?Hackett brings a little more energy to the offensive meeting room. He also is expected to put more emphasis on the run game. The Jaguars have run the ball just 47 times for 207 yards in the last three games -- not nearly enough for a team that invested in the ground game by drafting T.J. Yeldon in 2015 and then signing Chris Ivory in free agency in March.I have always felt the best thing in the world for a quarterback is the run game, Hackett said. I have always absolutely loved running the ball. I remember my first year at the Bills. I believe we were like one of the tops in the league. ... I think that you always are going to want to try and run the ball as much as you can and try to force that envelope.Equally important to fixing the teams sputtering running game is getting Bortles back to his 2015 form.Bortles has completed 60 percent of his passes this season for 1,904 yards, with 12 touchdowns and nine interceptions. He has struggled with his accuracy, partly because his motion has become so elongated that defensive backs are breaking on passes and linemen are batting down balls.Hes hardly looked like the same guy who ranked second in the NFL with 35 TD passes last season. Bortles said Monday hes bringing in QB guru Adam Dedeaux to spend two days fine-tuning his throwing motion.Bortles said the two-day session will focus on footwork, which should translate to better upper-body mechanics.Everybody keeps telling me there are things wrong with him and I understand that because were not winning, but hes also done a lot of really good things, Hackett said. Sometimes people try to focus on all the negative things with Blake. I dont really do that. I try to look at more of the positive things and see how we can do those more to get him into a more comfort level.If you dont have the run game, you put a lot more on him to try and throw the ball so many times and youre in those situations. Its not good for any quarterback, let alone a third-year quarterback, and thats now going to be on his third coordinator. ... We have to just be better on getting on the same page and helping him, which would then help everyone and everybody will be like, `Oh hes great.---AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and http://twitter.com/AP-NFL Bryce Callahan Jersey .Y. -- Buffalo Bills coach Doug Marrone has drawn on his Syracuse connections once again by hiring Rob Moore to take over as receivers coach.

PHILADELPHIA -- The Tampa Bay Lightning learned how to win without star forward Steven Stamkos in the past and theyll need to do it again after learning the 26-year-old sniper will be out at least four months with a torn meniscus.When they visit the Flyers (8-7-3) on Saturday afternoon, the Lightning (11-6-1) will try to continue what has been a perfect start to a five-game road trip (3-0-0).Tampa Bay did just fine in its first game without Stamkos, throttling the struggling Buffalo Sabres 4-1 on Thursday night on the strength of balanced scoring and 32 saves from Ben Bishop.Obviously, its a huge blow to our team, Bishop said of losing Stamkos, who three years ago missed 45 games with a broken leg and last season missed all but one playoff game with a blood clot in his collar bone. You lose your captain and arguably one of the best players in the league. Its a tough pill to swallow. Its just one of those things where youve got to step up. Everyone has to pick up the slack a little bit. ... Youve got to go more as a team effort because you cant rely on your big dog to come through.Alex Killorn recorded a goal and an assist for the Lightning and Nikita Nesterov, Nikita Kucherov and Brayden Point also scored for Tampa. Kucherov has four goals and two assists in his last three games and is now tied for the NHL lead with 22 points in 17 games.Tampa Bay coach Jon Cooper said it wont be easy replacing Stamkos, whose 20 points in 16 games ranked third in the league before his injury.Theres always that emotional first game when youre without your guy, Cooper said. So the problem iis that its not just one game, its months, and we just have to stay consistent.ddddddddddddhe Flyers, who have been seeking consistency all season, are expected to welcome back rookie defenseman Shayne Gostisbehere, who was a healthy scratch for the first time in his NHL career Thursday night.Philadelphia won two of its last three games and received a strong 30-save effort from Steve Mason in Thursday nights 5-2 win over the Winnipeg Jets. Four different Flyers scored in that win and 12 different players recorded points.It was just the fourth time this season Philadelphia held an opponent under three goals and just the sixth time it did not allow a goal in the third period.I think definitely when youre going into the third with a lead you cant let up at all, said right wing Wayne Simmonds, who scored his team-leading ninth goal in the third period on Thursday night to give the Flyers a 4-2 lead. Weve got to pressure. Falling behind is kind of where weve laid back in the third period we kind of let teams give it to us and I think thats where we get in trouble, so weve got to keep following this groove.Mason is expected to return to the net, where hell be looking to win consecutive games for the first time this season.Mason made some huge saves for us and he cant do that every game, Philadelphia defenseman Mark Streit said. As a whole team we need to improve, especially on Saturday when we face another good offensive team. We need to be in sync.
