We Complain About Bad Coaching...

... and the everyone seems to want an average backup quarterback with no coaching experience to put on a polo next season. What's the logic behind that? What role would he even be in? 

 

Prepared for butt fumble votes (even though it was Moore's fault). But it's the truth. Enough with inexperienced coaches. We already have an idiot that sucks at time management at the head.

I'm not sure what your argument is about.

The Jets have one, maybe two pro bowlers this year and it's a safety and returner. They were a 5-11 team last year and the franchise threw out essentially the same roster with a rookie quarterback, and then injuries piled up mid-season just when the team was playing slightly below average and probably above expectations. I have no idea how much of a part Bowles played in that but in terms of strictly game day I'm not sure what anyone was expecting of him. Bowles is definitely a goner and deservedly so, but the problems with this franchise go way beyond the coach and I don't think it really matters who they hire to replace him; so long as the guy up in the front office doesn't know how to draft or who to pay in free agency the Jets are screwed.

With what qualifications? There are tons of better candidates out there with actual experience and success. 

Frank Reich,Alex Van Pelt  as example all had to start somewhere.  McCown seems to get along great with Sam Darnold and seems to be helping him succeed. 

Sorry Rich Gannon isn't a coach he's a commentator.

But how do we know he's helping him succeed? We don't see what goes on behind the scenes. And with a potential franchise QB, why take a risk on an inexperienced coach? Hell, I'd take a risk even on a guy like Darin Slack before McCown.

Years past I have noticed NY Jets QB's come off the field and sit or stand now you see them looking at the laptop or being talked to by someone mainly McCown here.

I'm sure his playing experience is valuable, but not enough to make him a coach. Maybe an ASSISTANT, learning under an experienced coach.

 It’s the same people that wanted Chad Pennington as a quarterback coach  

I still do want Pennington as QB coach but he started his own HS Football team... He wouldn't give that up... People act like this is a bad idea when in reality a lot of ex-QBs become coaches and most start as a QB coach.

And many are crappy coaches. You don't take risks on inexperience when you have a potential franchise QB. Very few exceptions to that rule.

If they start out as an assistant coach. You don’t just send them to the top because they played the position.

You're going to have to try much harder than that if you want a butt fumble as it's a valid question. I think people see a player with a lot of experience who was able to hang around because he learned the ins and outs of the game and while never great was good enough for stretches. They see him being a potentially good mentor (who really knows) and figure maybe he could be a position coach initially. I could go either way. Being good at something doesn't always mean you can teach it.

If we were to groom someone... what's Pennington doing?

HE in my mind would be a good offensive mind. 

 

Someone might have to hold the clipboard for him though.;)

He's coaching middle school football in Lexington, Kentucky, The schools colors are, interesting enough, green and white.

Venturing to guess nobody else understands this post either?

If your house collapses, you don’t start rebuilding from the roof. If the QB is the foundation, the coach is the mortar of the foundation.

I buttfumbled this for blaming the actual buttfumble on the person who had his ass run into.  Head first by one of the worst QBs in the NFL

The QB is the vibranium and everybody still doesn't know where Wakanda is. In 2018 finding a QB is harder than finding a coach and/or good quarterbacks can carry average coaches more than vice versa. It's hard to take much from Darnold right now because rookie years are generally a wash but I'm a fan. As a front office we don't look good going forward, but there are worse positions to be in than a blue chip QB, tons of cap room, and a top pick. If the Jets are going to actually work at building something they are in a great position to do it. Macaggnan lucked into Darnold so I'm hoping that can carry over into the Spring.

And yet Jets somehow found a way to downgrade with Geno “Me was at movies” Smith.

Yea but joe the op is complaining about our constant turning to unknown inexperienced coaches. I agree with him.

Who says mccown would make a good coach? Why do we always lately want "up and coming" asst coaches instead of experienced ones?

Half the people on this board scoff at a super bowl winner with a killer winning career record in mccarthy. I dunno...

Based on what? 

It's QB coach not offensive coordinator. Being a 40 year old former NFL QB who has experience working with darnold and has a built in rapport with darnold makes him about as qualified as just about anyone else. 

Zac Taylor was a graduate assistant in college one year at 27 and the next year he was assistant qb coach at 28 and then at 29 he was QB coach in Miami. 

Pretty sure mccown has more QB experience than Taylor did before becoming a QB coach the first time. 

No one is asking him to design plays and a game plan. Just help the young QB along the way.
