all the posters who are angry at his loud mouth and how the Jets are not respected should just become Giants fans. Seriously, the Jets will probably not ever be the Giants. They will never have that sort of original NFL cachet. And if they do ever become like that, it will be because of a Tom Brady like lightning strike not because of who is coaching. I don't know what you guys think coaches do, but they don't control the plays that are made on the field. Last week the Jets were losing, Rex made a significant change, and they won. That's good coaching folks. Believe it or not. if the team can keep winning and go .500 or above, without revis, that's an insane coaching job.

Math doesn't really turn something into anything else. Contrary to what you may think, it does not drink haterade.

so we're back to the wins not being pretty enough. I guess you win.

Rex is a good enough DC and they had enough talent to avoid this.

As the talent continues to diminish, it will come.

What final record would you have predicted if someone told you Revis and Holmes would be on IR, Keller would miss 6 games, and Sanchez would play terribly half the time?

There's a realistic chance this team finishes 9-7 with all that adversity. That's damn good coaching.

Oh yeah, that's it. And I got that straight from Euclid.

I'm telling you, Sunday's game is going to kick off the longest-running lollercoaster in the history of the board. Four opponents left, each a weaker sister than the last. Four weeks of anti-intellectualism and "swagger" and TWO AFC CHAMPIONSHIP GAMES NERDQUEERS. Four weeks of talking up Vlad Ducasse's potential and convincing themselves Tannenbaum has a plan. Four weeks of mouth-breathers clambering over each other to be the first to claim they knew all along that Sanchez could be salvaged and that Rex is the right man for the job. Getcha popcorn ready.

We'll all be singing Monorail in two weeks. Just watch.

Yes great coaching not beating one strong team finishing behind NE again and Rex not having a clue about the offensive side of the ball

[bassmaster2]

Rex done a good job, the won 8 or better every year , this team dose not have the talent like other teams ,they have not drafted very well and this is the cause of the problem

"oh nos a 5 game winning streak"

would that be so bad?

A 5 game winning streak doesn't make this team better.

[Jetscode1]

I dont think thats true. He wants to run the ball. Which they were able to do better than anyone his first 2 seasons. And he knows you need to be able to throw to win, he's not stupid.

This regime hasnt ignored the offense as everyone suggests. They've tried to help Sanchez and make the passing game better, some move were good, some were bad. He's just horrible, so it doesnt matter. I dont think people realize how much better this team would look with a real QB. OL, RB, WR, and even defense would all look much improved.

That article that Klacko posted shows all you need to see. Wide open receivers all over the field and Sanchez cant get them the ball.

I agree Sanchez cannot play QB...the regime still has many more misses than hits...Rex may stay...Woody ultimately the decision maker...but his stubborn refusal to play company man and continue with Sanchez has lost him the locker room...the fact that his offensive philosophy is the ground & pound proves my point...he can win with a strong defense and running game...take the air out of the ball...control the clock...hope for a defensive or special team score to win...its antiquated...the team cannot get in a shootout and win...especially with a team with a fair to good defense...if you want to dump the offensive problems all in Sanchez's lap...fine...but Rex has to own some of this stench as well...and the culture around the team (no accountability + throwing teammates under the bus in the media) lays squarely on him.

The Jets have an incredibly easy schedule this year, facing teams at the best time possible.

I honestly cannot think of one game they lost that I can point tomasmsaying, yeah, if they had Revis they win.

I think Holmes is one of the most overrated players in the NFL.

I have said that I think Rex is a good enough defensive mind, that it will never be a 4-12 type season.

That said, I think the norm for Rex is going to be 7-9 to 9-7, unless they get a big time offense.

I think he plays a huge role in how horribly Sanchez has played, and how bad the offense is overall.

I cannot give him a pass for that.

I also have seen a huge decline in talent on his watch, which I blame him for as much, if not more than Tanny.

This!

They beat one winning team this year, and that was as much timing as anything. If they played now, Colts win.

I don't recall them beating a winning team last year either.

You're the best.

[Bugg]

Exactly, Tanny was never hired to be a traditional GM, he was hired to let the HC pick the groceries.

Unfortunately, our HC cannot pick the groceries, nor can he do anything other than devise half way decent defensive game plans, at least against dog sh*t offenses he can.

Scary that we really don't know who makes the final draft decisions for the Jets. Bradway? Tannenbaum? Rex? Do the alternate? Who really knows?Every GM cobsults with the coach and the chief scout. There are other GMs who are bad at their jobs, but with almost every other NFL team the GM or the HC like Bellicheat (after Ernie Adams or someone else tells him who to pick)make the decision.

The Jets' organizational chart on draft day is a circle jerk.

[RutgersJetFan]

You're the best.

I love how we're already assigning credit to something that hasn't happened under the presumption that all of this wasn't completely preventable in the first place.
