He has no clue how to hire the people to run the ship, so he had to bring in Wolf and Casserly, who have no vested interest in our team, nor did they care if Macc and Bowles actually worked out. I mean, maybe they'd get another gig in the future of hiring a GM/HC combo for another clueless owner if they nailed this, but I doubt that mattered much to them. If an owner can't pick successful people to work under him, he's a worthless owner. Oh they care. It's their reputation. You dont think they like the money that Woody paid them to pick the GM and HC? You dont think they'd like someone else to give them money for the same thing? Just unfortunate this franchise sucks so bad they cant even get it right when they do it right.

But, to a degree, I'm talking about something different. How do we get from point A, where we are now, to point B, contender? Macc has had two drafts and the needle hasn't moved far from that 4-12 team he inherited. that's because he hasn't fixed the qb position yet. in 2015 he wasn't getting winston or mariotta, and he inquired about trading up this year but you see how expensive that was. next draft is the first time he will be in a position to take a qb in the first round. in the meantime he's added the 2 lynchpins of the defense, williams and lee, while also adding some wrs who can run. this year is when mccags realizes he can't have his cake and eat it too, you can't make the playoffs while trotting out fitz/forte/marshall and think their veteran leadership will overcome physical limitations and historical performance.

They have zero idea what to do with Sheldon Richardson so they are playing him everywhere,. He's a friggin disruptive Dlineman that should be wreaking havoc on the other teams oline and his off the line playing LB. Bilal Powell, no clue what to do with him, they bring him in on 3rd down passing downs, but wait that is Fortes best aspect. Pryor, a guy that can smack but cannot cover for long or deep, don;t know what to do with him. That has to do with coaching. The main problem with the Jets defense is that they playing 4 DL and 3 LB. They should be a 3-4 defense. 3 DL and 4 LB. That way Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for playing Petty, what makes you think that Fitz isn't the 16 game starter at this point? i think woody has had it with having his qbs bashed in the media, i think he is ultra sensitive to this. he definitely does not want geno to be in a jet uniform and represent the organization. i think this will put even more pressure on mccags and bowles to get petty ready. i doubt it is this sunday, petty missed too much practice time.

Because they have a massive stockpile of draft picks due in part to ripping off the Eagles on that trade (Wentz is solid, but they will likely get an even better QB out of the 2017 draft).

SayNoToDMC Posted October 18, 2016 Share Posted October 18, 2016 Bowles needs to go and have Woody spend whatever he squirreled away for his failed Jeb Bush endeavour on the best offensive coach his trust fund money can buy. Who the **** was our last real offensive coach? Rich Kotite? I was like 10. Maybe we can just chalk that up to him being a sh*t coach and try again There's a reason we can't find a competent QB despite countless resources wasted. Stupid owner and the sh*t rolls down hill throughout the organization. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FlaJetsFan Posted October 18, 2016 Share Posted October 18, 2016 First of all, let me say Woody is a genius owner and all is going according to plan. Unlike idiots like Kraft, who plucks top coaches from divisional rivals, and sit on top of their division for over a decade, and pick up multiple SBs along the way, Woody cleverly has a committee make his brilliant moves for him, while winning nothing. That is the smart way to go, as we need more strangers to decide our fate. All good teams do that. Our identify going forward is clear. We intend next year to draft 2 more intermediate level QB, but not play them, for reasons that shall remain unspecified. By 2018 the Jets shall be the only team in history to ever carry 8 QBs, with 6 of these carrying clipboards. The idea of this radical strategy is to completely unnerve opposing defenses, who will constantly have to worry which of the 8 QBs to prepare for, week in week out. I call this a master strategy by a genius owner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beerfish Posted October 18, 2016 Share Posted October 18, 2016 I disagree that Bowles is just lining people and letting them go. He is actually impeding that with his schemes in a big way. We would be far better off if they chose a 3-4 or a 4-3 and let the players play than being all cute with this 'we are a hybrid' shtick. They are putting players in positions that are not to their strengths. First 4 weeks or so we hardly blitz at all, ;last game we blitzed damn near every play in the 2nd half.

Big Blocker Posted October 18, 2016 Share Posted October 18, 2016 On a going forward basis, you have to look at who on the roster might be the core of the team in say two to three years. That's a depressing thought, since I can only count Williams, Lee and that's it. Even Lee there is a bit of a stretch, but odds are high enough on him. Pretty much everyone else is either a vet who may or may not be on the team by that time or is a younger player with question marks. Including Wilkerson, ftr. Sure I am not saying everyone else sucks and has no upside. But who can reasonably be counted on? Those two and that is it. That being the case, this is a depressing time to be a Jet fan.
