Beerfish Posted December 12, 2017 Share Posted December 12, 2017 12 minutes ago, bla bla bla said: If we had any offense to speak of Sunday I'd agree. McCown had 18 yards in the first half, was hurt, and Denver had 2 timeouts. Sure maybe that could have caused a spark but we were a wet lighter on Sunday. Maybe you argue that he should have iced the kicker but even then that's not really proven to work. There are plenty of issues I have with Bowles, I'm not overly upset with this particular issue though. We re not doing well on offense thus we better not even try to do better so we don't look bad not doing well. Makes perfect frggin sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jamesr Posted December 12, 2017 Share Posted December 12, 2017 Whether it was a good decision or bad decision ... my biggest issue is we "regrouped" at half time and came out with THE EXACT SAME CRAP FROM THE FIRST HALF. First drive - 11 yards punt Denver score another TD Next drive - 5 yards, punt Regroup?? How do you tell the difference? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoadFan Posted December 12, 2017 Share Posted December 12, 2017 The explanation is that Todd Bowles, time and time again, show zero balls when making decisions. It is inevitable that a head coach's lack of courage infects his players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt39 Posted December 12, 2017 Share Posted December 12, 2017 There are a lot of NFL coaches that coach like this. It isn’t specific to Bowles. Theres just not a ton of ingenuity in the league outside of New England. Don’t really have a solid reason as to why either.

Bowles should be fired for quitting in the second half, but he should also be fired for explaining why in his own words from his own mouth why he is too big of a pussy to be a NFL jead coach Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hawk Posted December 13, 2017 Share Posted December 13, 2017 8 hours ago, MDL_JET said: I get all that. But the oline was playing like absolute crap. McCown was broken. What if they hurry it up and oline fails again causing McCown to get sacked and fumble. AGAIN. Resulting in more Denver points? Or a throw a pick? Would we be saying, “good call by the coach”. It’s not like McCown was healthy and killing it in the first half. If so, then I’d understand. But it’s true, you’re 5-7, throw bombs and go down swinging. What ifs are the definition of scared coaching! If you are a heas coach you believe in your guys to step up and make a play, you believe in your ciaching staff and the game plan, even when it isnt going to plan (in game adjustments). You dont play the what if this happens or this happens. Coward plain and simple. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nycdan Posted December 13, 2017 Share Posted December 13, 2017 Bowles preferred to trot an injured 38 year-old QB back out, risking his health, than put in his backup for more than the absolutely required number of plays. He preferred to abandon even trying to score points because said starting QB was hurt, rather than put the backup in and let him sling it. There is no possible excuse for this other than a personal agenda that has absolutely nothing to do with winning football games. And I don't believe there is any possible way to rationalize that this man is an effective HC who you want running the team in 2018. Even if you don't like Petty, this is something that no other HC in the league would have justified. Bye Todd. Don't let the doorknob hit ya...

Just give him rest for that one drive. But no, send him back out to throw a pick. Way to go Todd! i'm with you on that. imo mccown should've been pulled in the first half after he got that twinge. he was doing nothing up that point and it was clear he was getting rocked. petty could've come in, played out the half and then got some coaching during half time. and the explanation for not getting the ball with a minute left is worse than how it actually played out. the patsies have made a living out of scoring points without much time towards the end of halves.

SenorGato Posted December 13, 2017 Share Posted December 13, 2017 This guy is so stupid he didn’t trust the vaunted Jets offense offense to put up a quick score before the half despite having of his choice of an injured Josh McCown, Bryce Petty, or Christian Hackenberg at QB. He does not get it and I am ******* outraged. Be aggressive! Believe in your players and they will repay your respect and honesty back tenfold! How does he not know this? McCown/Petty/Hackenberg to Robby Anderson, all day! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reynolds1029 Posted December 13, 2017 Share Posted December 13, 2017 Sorry but Bowles is wrong here. At 5-7 what little hope our team had for the playoffs was on the line. You need to take every reasonable risk you can. Not calling the timeout is foolish. Even more foolish is putting an injured QB out on the field. Infact it's FIREABLE. You caused your starting QB his season at the end of the day. He was banged up he should have been OUT. He broke his hand because when you are hurting, you are not thinking about protecting your body therefore it caused Josh to not protect himself and break his hand. Todd Bowles is a foolish ignorant a**hole at the end of the day and should be FIRED. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is IDIOTIC. Lets look at a team with a brain, the Pats. They always seem to be scoring late in the half. This isn't a situation in which we had 20 seconds left and were on our own 20 yard line. They were trying a long field goal we could have had over a minute left and 2 time outs left. It is simply indefensible. I agree with what you're saying. But it's also easy to have balls when Tom Brady is your QB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair, they did let Petty throw when he went in for relief of McCown in the 3rd quarter. He went 1/6 for 7 yards. Sure, I would've rather watched him go down slinging it for the rest of the game, but he didn't exactly inspire confidence. Not defending Bowles here, just saying.

jetscrazey Posted December 13, 2017 Share Posted December 13, 2017 You don't have faith in Bryce Petty to go 20 yards in 60 seconds with 3 timeouts to get into field goal range? Shut up Todd, you won a game on the road with Petty last year. Don't act like he's a rookie. Not an acceptable explanation. Bowles just doesn't have what it takes it seems.
