JOJOTOWNSELL Posted December 17, 2014 Share Posted December 17, 2014 http://newyork.cbslocal.com/2014/12/17/woody-johnson-favorites-tweet-urging-him-to-fire-idzik-calls-it-inadvertent/ NEW YORK (CBSNewYork) — You’ve got to be more careful than that, Woody. On Tuesday afternoon, an angry Jets fans tweeted at owner Woody Johnson, encouraging him to fire general manager John Idzik. Johnson hit the “favorite” button before realizing what he did and undoing it. Idzik appears to be on the hot seat in just his second season as New York’s GM. Fans have called for his ouster all season in the form of billboards and banners, though it’s anybody’s guess what Johnson will decide to do after the season. Last week, Johnson told the New York Daily News that he’s “frustrated” with his team’s play — the Jets are a lowly 3-11 — but isn’t sure if changes will be made. Some believe that Idzik will be back in light of a recent report indicating that Johnson and Idzik are in the early stages of a coaching search to replace Rex Ryan. Ryan is expected to be fired after missing the playoffs for the fourth consecutive season. On Tuesday, a team source told Metro New York’s Kristian Dyer that there’s a “50-50″ chance that Idzik will be retained for the 2015 season.

JOJOTOWNSELL Posted December 17, 2014 Author Share Posted December 17, 2014 This is news? if its in the NY POST.........lol http://nypost.com/2014/12/17/woody-johnson-scrambles-after-fire-idzik-fail/ It may have been “inadvertent,” but it’s still an ominous sign for John Idzik. Jets owner Woody Johnson favorited a tweet from a fan urging him to fire the general manager, a possibility that has been widely speculated on during the Jets’ 3-11 debacle of a season. Johnson would go on to apologize after the story began to gain traction, saying it was an accident. Johnson will decide the fate of Idzik and coach Rex Ryan after the season ends in two weeks.

drsamuel84 Posted December 17, 2014 Share Posted December 17, 2014 I wouldn't put too much stake into it. Woody is pretty old and probably doesn't know how to use twitter all that well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FidelioJet Posted December 17, 2014 Share Posted December 17, 2014 Needs to fire everyone including Bradway, hire an actual president or GM, and dissappear. If you hire a new GM, coach and yet keep Bradway, little will change. The whole thing needs to be completely overhauled...I don't think there's any other way to go at this point.

The whole thing needs to be completely overhauled...I don't think there's any other way to go at this point. Bradway is NOT the problem here. Let me remind you that he has made very few draft picks in his tenure and the one he wanted the MOST was Russell Wilson who is the starting QB of the SB Champion Seahawks. Would Wilson have worked miracles in NY - I think he would be better than Geno, or Sanchez that's for sure. I not a huge Bradway fan, but he is only the head of the scouting department. He doesn't make the decisions, just gives out the facts. And the fact is that he wanted the Jets to take Russell Wilson and they didn't listen.

The Russell Wilson thing is SOOOOOOOO overblown at this point. Idzik also drafted Richardson...Guys like guys and sometimes they pan out sometimes they don't. Bradway has been the head of this thing for a decade. he MUST go with everything else. I'm not saying he's the only problem but he certainly has been part of it.
