"Mike Mularkey was in the mix for the Jaguars' coaching job in 2003 before Jack Del Rio was hired.

He said Jaguars fans can count on one thing: He's picked up more knowledge and experience at his three NFL stops since then, as the head coach for the Buffalo Bills in 2004 and 2005, then as an assistant with Miami and Atlanta before accepting the Jaguars job Wednesday."

"I've learned a lot with every job I've had, and I've had them all," Mularkey said. "I've learned at every stop, whether it was from the head coach, coaches around me or the players. I've tried to take that to help me for the next stop, the next year, the next whatever it was.""
