SenorGato Posted October 13, 2016 Share Posted October 13, 2016 These guys must search within themselves to find answers. Then and only then will they come together individually and as a team to become the best possible versions of both themselves and the Jets.

Just win games. Do it with no name players. I dont care. Spread the ball around so no one has great fantasy numbers. I dont care. No one likes us. I dont care. I want more people to hate us because they wish they were us while we're winning games. Win games and people will visit MetLife Stadium.

You give these spoiled, overpaid, grossly underachieving players, who by the way could not care less about winning or us fans, way too much credit.

cant wait Posted October 13, 2016 Share Posted October 13, 2016 I agree with thread title that this jets team really has no identity, there's nothing they really do well outside of maybe stopping the run. The defense looks really good except for the linebackers and secondary, and the offensive gameplan of running a rookie level single-read spread system built around your prized free agent acquisition -- a $12M QB with an extremely limited skill set but a heart of gold, hasn't been as good as it was advertised. The jets haven't had a strong identity since 09-10 when the jets had 5 pro-bowl OL and a balanced defense featuring a prime darrelle revis. rex's gameplan was to run and play defense and that's exactly what that team was built to do Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jet_Engine1 Posted October 13, 2016 Share Posted October 13, 2016 They aren't the most popular team in their own geographic area. They aren't the most popular team in their own STADIUM. There is no location that lives or dies by the Jets outside the internet and sites like this. It's a very scattered, transient fanbase. The Browns might suck, but they OWN Cleveland. The people there care about that team. That stadium is packed full of die hards every game. Metlife is filled with corporate types there that got the tickets because the Giants aren't playing that day and the Knicks and Yankees are rebuilding. It's a front running crowd and the PSLs might have run off some of the lower income drunks, making the stadium more "fan friendly", but it also drove away your die hard fans that used to pass tickets down through the family. It's a Defense minded team in an era that favors the offense. Nationally, nobody cares. The Jets, aside from the era of Namath, are basically pointless as a franchise. We make a good schedule filler and foil to the Patriots/Giants/Steelers etc.... but are about as relevant today as the Mayan empire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ohio State NY Jets fan Posted October 13, 2016 Share Posted October 13, 2016 This is why everyone loved Rex (at first) but the Circus "identity" got old, the team imploded, Woody hired Idzik so it's the 90's again - we have survived worse and will get through this Last year was refreshing and it was fun to watch a competitive team play football again, they just need a few more players and some Pepper on the DC, enjoy the ride... It's the journey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UntouchableCrew Posted October 13, 2016 Share Posted October 13, 2016 Yes, let's bring back Rex so we can have an "identity" again. Build the team up and try to get better. Once we're good we'll have an identity. The mistake we made was trying to "win now" at the behest of Woody while still trying to rebuild. We need to dump expensive vets and rebuild for real.

BurnleyJet Posted October 13, 2016 Share Posted October 13, 2016 If you lose you don't have an identity, we need to Win to have one. Regardless I'm looking for an improvment.
