Yeah cuz the fans demanded a no-rebuild season right? Our GM goes out of his way to spend sh*t ton of cap on overrated players one year after the last GM handed him a nice $50mil cap space cake. Then the GM borrows another 20-30 mil from the future by restructuring several contracts and we still stink. Maybe its the GM/HCs fault afterall and not the fans? We only wanted Idzik gone, which was a huge mistake to begin with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fans talk about rebuilding only in theory until they experience it then they whine and the media plays into it for cheap clicks. The past is the past. Going forward I hope Woody and company allow the gm to rebuild and let the fans media in on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think Chicago Cubs. Think Boston Red Sox. Better for all of us, especially the older fans, to come to terms with that. That we may never, in our entire lifetime, get to see the Jets even IN a Super Bowl, much less win one. Life is far more Zen without undue expectations and the attendant disappointments.

Either way, he gave us a good core of players along with 50mil to work with for the new GM. He was in a perfect spot to rebuild. He chose not to and effed up cap wise. Jury is still out on his draft picks though. Im pretty sure every fan had resigned to the fact that 2015 was going to be the rebuild year until Macc went crazy with the the cap space like a kid after a nice Halloween heist.

Its so funny that you say this, I had this exact conversation with my pops after last weeks Miami loss. We were both saying that the more at stake for the Jets, the more stressful the games are, and how much more relaxing it is when there are no expectations. I remember all 4 AFCCG's in my lifetime, I was an absolute mess before and during the game, oozing with stress. I can't even imagine how stressed I would be if they ever made the SB. This past week was pretty relaxing, the game was boring as all hell and I felt like I was watching football from 1923, but it was not stressful and it was fun hanging out with friends and family Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After 2014 ended what made you think they'd continue the rebuild? Once Idzik got fired it was clear as day that they would spend money in order to be competitive.

We were all resigned to 4-6 wins until Macc decided not to and spent over $50mil in cap space just that one year alonge. We were looking at drafting a QB very early depending on who's out there. That's a sure sign of rebuild. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The majority of Jets fans weren't resigned to 4-6 wins because if they were they never pull out billboards and planes. They would've been patient with Idzik, but since they weren't Woody caved to media and fan pressure, and what did they do? Sign Revis, trade for Marshall, sign Cromartie, sign Gilchrist, sign Skrine. No matter who they would've hired the gm would've been spending money with the purpose of being competitive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Simply don't see any progress, not on the talent on the roster, and not in the coaching staff. The OL and secondary were strengths and now both are weaknesses.Was open-minded about Bowles(who seems like a nice guy) , but the Gailey hire was a huge missed opportunity. There are lots of young guys on NFL staffs and in Division 1 and 2 or even 3 you could hire who would have come in here and put in a serious passing attack. And instead they hired an old establish the run retread who was out of football. That was braindead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rangers have been pretty respectable despite a cap setup. And he was smart enough to get out of the cable business right before the Great Unhookup, if dumb enough to buy Newsday .Also thinks he really is a rock star. Kind of a mixed bag.

Whatever you say. Not a single reasonable fan out there was demanding a 10+ win season. It was a great time to pick up key young FAs. Instead, we went with overpriced old vets and traded for Fitz. So Yeah, it ended up NOT being a rebuild but wasn't cuz some guys put up a few billboards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
