bostonmajet Posted February 8, 2017 Share Posted February 8, 2017 granted the defense looked tired and fell apart in the last quarter, but I would blame the O for the loss; had they not screwed up that last drive and scored at least 3, they most likely win. No points and a turn over is not great by an offense leading the game in the 4th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KRL Posted February 8, 2017 Share Posted February 8, 2017 Quinn should be ashamed of himself for firing his defensive coaches. ATL defense was dominating the game and allowed them to get out to a 28-3 lead. In fact if ATL won Jarrett (3 sacks) should've won the MVP. Their defense got tired because Quinn didn't demand that Shanahan run the ball more and milk the clock allowing their defense to rest. Not even the 1985 Bears could hold up when they are on the field for almost 100 plays Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoJoTownsell1 Posted February 8, 2017 Share Posted February 8, 2017 Is this a joke? The defense played amazing until they were winded due to awful game planning by the OC and HC. Any defense left on the field for as long as they were would have eventually collapsed under the pressure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tinstar Posted February 8, 2017 Share Posted February 8, 2017 The way I see this, is that most new HCs hire assistants that are available and not the assistants they prefer because some are under contract and can't be hire at the time and or fired after the team has already hired an assistant .

HighPitch Posted February 8, 2017 Share Posted February 8, 2017 Very unfair. If the offense ran the ball and snapped it with 2 seconds left on the clock each time they wohld be champions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Il Mostro Posted February 8, 2017 Share Posted February 8, 2017 Quinn was the one calling the plays on defense, since Smith was DC in title only. Shouldn't he have jumped in front of a moving bus himself? Chicken$h!t. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel more pissed off then ever that his buddy KC $hitbleet is still our DC. ATL got to a SB and their DC was fired, yet these ass clowns put forth the worst defense in 40 years of Jet football and these pieces of crap got another year and you guys are happy about this?

LIJetsFan Posted February 8, 2017 Share Posted February 8, 2017 I doubt these firing are due to the SB performance. If they were then this HC is an ass. This is just a new HC wanting to bring in his guys/system. Still dumb IMHO. I mean come on, they were winning the SB there for a while for heavens' sake.

The Defense was gassed precisely because the offense was throwing the ball over the place and taking NO time off the clock!! The offense ran the ball 5 times in the second half despite having a 25 point lead!!!! Good Grief!!!1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
