Gee golly, I wonder why

Maybe he's under the fallacious notion that Mcg sucking somehow means Idzik didn't, but we all know Tom is a really super smart guy so that's unlikely. Maybe he thinks that since mcG sucks it was pointless to run Idzik out of town, but of course you miss 100% of the swings you don't take so it's likely not that. Maybe he's just an a$$hole?

I'm only, like, the fifth smartest guy in this website and, like, the 12th biggest a$$hole. I have similar rankings on OKCupid, fwiw.

Idzik was a high-ranking member of personnel departments with the Buccaneers when they built their Super Bowl roster, then with the Cardinals when they built their Super Bowl roster, then again with the Seahawks when they built their Super Bowl roster. The Jaguars have operated like a professional football front office since he took a job there and have put together two very good offseasons. Everywhere he's gone, success has coincidentally followed. He takes the Jets job, gets told from day one he has to keep a coach who is currently an absolute pariah in league circles, inherits a scouting staff that once thought Shonn Greene was a first rounder, wisely elects to start over, and gets his legs cut out from under him because of a sh*tty draft class that included six picks made in the fifth round or later. 

 

 

 

All true, the Jags went 5-11 and then 3-13 since Idzik got there as Caldwells Dwight Schrute. So he's well on his way to building another dynasty there and it's not really debatable.

Can't speak for Tom, but for me it's more that Maccagnan is basically indistinguishable from Idzik save the former's propensity for flushing money down the toilet, but the same people who paid for the billboards are ready to open a Gofundme to put a Maccagnan statue outside Gate D.

The only accurate statement is highlighted and the rest is full of sh*t.

The real story here is that Bowles' support system around the league is closing ranks around him--possibly at his request--and it's about to get dirty in Florham. The good news is that stories like this will guarantee Bowles' exit at the end of the season. The bad news is that no coach with options will ever work for Woody Johnson again. 

Bowles is simply not  good HC period, which has little or nothing to do with Woody Johnson. Johnson took the advice of former GM's like Charley Casserly to hire Bowles and clearly it was a mistake. I don't think firing him will be a detriment to anyone not wanting to coach the Jets. Not having a QB may be though.

Indistinguishable? Look at the draft record please dbatesman. Idzik completely wasted 12 picks starting with grade A bust Calvin Pryor. So far Mac hasn't had any glaring busts, but Hackenberg will make or break him most likely.

And BTW, I dont see any Jets hate on Twitter. So nobody is really laughing at us. If a tree falls in the forest and nobody hears it, does it make a sound

No ones laughing because it's true. Also the best thing is we finish bottom 3. Finish the job and grab a QB.

Bowles had a very good year as a Rookie coach, with areas that needed improving   

As a second year coach he was terrible in all phases.  

Let's see where year 3 goes.  No one is firing Hue after 1-15.   The team held together-it just was talentless.

Bowles needs to do the same thing, which is why the vets were cut.  They are the ones that create morale problems.

I think if you look at what the Raiders have done since Reggie McKenzie took over looks very similar to what Macc has been doing with the Jets.  McKenzie came in and spent money on older player to try and make a competitive team.  That strategy did not work and fans, media and everyone were calling for McKenzie to be fired.  He broke it down in year 3 and got lucky in the draft Mack, Amari Cooper, and Derek Carr.  He built a young foundation and sprinkled in role players.  I say lucky because Derek Carr could have easily been the guy that went to the Browns when they traded back into the first and made the poor choice of Johnny Manzel. 

Here is the reality, what the Jets are doing right now we have not seen them do before.  10+ years ago the Jets kept fan favorites Marvin Jones and Mo Lewis with their high salary who were on the decline.  That decision to keep those guys for what they did in past years, saw a promising young LB leave via Free Agency in James Farrior who went on to have a solid career.  This brings to David Harris, Nick Mangold, and Revis:  These guys were great for us and will someday go into our Ring of Honor buy it is time to say thank you and allow these young guys to take over in Demario Davis/Darron Lee, Wesely Johnson, Justin Burris, and throw in our young WR crew as well.

Our record may not be great next year, but I am actually excited to see these young guy's play, take their bumps and bruises, and grow to build the new foundation for the Jets.
