I dont like the hire but there werent many great options left.  If he was a little humbled by his dolphin firing, maybe he will be good for darnold.

There weren't many options to begin with.  All had (or have) risks associated with them.  During an interview on Arizona Sports Radio today Kliff Kingsbury said he had no idea who the Def Coordinator will be for the Cardinals, he's relying on GM Steve Kiem and Steve's connections.

The other candidates that were hired by other other teams....Kitchens (never an option for the Jets), Vic Fangio (defense, a billion years in the league and never hired as HC before), Kingsbury, LaFleur (not really on the Jets list, comes from the high-powered Titans offense :blink: ).

The ONLY regrets our fans should have is with what was left on the table....Rhule, McCarthy, Monken (who I was most interested in).  The fact is that those guys were either not wanted by the Jets (clearly McCarthy and Monken weren't offered jobs) or were going to stay in place (Rhule at Baylor).

This is nowhere near a home run hire.  But I will say this until I'm blue in the face....   Gase > Bowles.  Let's see what the staff looks like for Gase.

His press conference will be Must See TV!!!

Oh I get it..  this is where you make up something about me assuring everyone Gase would not be the pick. 

Or that Macc somehow did this to keep control despite the fact Gase was the ONLY known candidate to but heads over personnel decisions.

He’s not gonna be around long mccagnan has at most another year or two and the new gm is gonna bring the guy he wants once MM is canned 

Yup...but by then Darnold will already be beaten down as a loser and ready for a 2nd contract. 

They fell into Sh-- getting Darnold and I thought maybe this franchise finally caught a break with a superbowl winning coach, that developed Aaron Rodgers became available AND wanted to come here.  But instead we hire the Dolphins loser cast off.

You honestly can't make this up.

I’m fine with it. Let’s just see how it works out. Everybody LOVED the Bowles hire. So whatever you’re feeling now really has no bearing on reality.

 

R-E-L-A-X

 

ill give him a chance.  I think he’s a good choice for Darnold.  He’s worked with John Fox, Mike Martz, Peyton Manning.  Young and energetic. Worked with at least 5 nfl teams.  Has some HC experience, knows the Jets roster well- knows the division. 

Great point.

The ones we love turn out to suck.  The ones we hate?  Let's see.

Hmmmm… ?

 

On one hand he seems like he's able to get the most out of his QB's, for whatever that is at any given time. On the other hand there's the rumors of him losing the locker room... I dunno. I never hated the idea of hiring him, but I need to look more at just what happened, good or bad, in Miami.

This is an absolute myth created by the media. Who has he developed? 35 year old Peyton Manning?

He won with Tim Tebow and Jay Cutler and Ryan Tannehill - I give him credit for adapting calling offenses to the different strengths of his varying QB’s.  It’s something.

Well, lets see, when the great Todd Bowles was hired there were pages and pages of elated jet fans singing the praises of the next great NFL coach and we know how that turned out so now that most people hate this hire maybe the reverse will be true. Oh sh*t, I hate this hire too but I was just trying to be positive. FML.

he didn't win anything.

He beat us quite a bit.  Beat the Pats a hell of a lot more than we did.

This last year, his FO traded away his #1 player on offense and his #1 player on defense and then gave him Bryce Petty and Osweiler to back up Tannehill who missed the entire previous season.

I don’t get it.  It’s almost like Manish has a lot of pull lol.  I’m starting to feel that Rhule and Gase were the main guys and McCarthy was never really what they wanted

Nope no choice.  I’m trying to be positive.  I do think he has good qualities to be successful especially having Sam but I’m worried that so many dolphin players tuned him out

Perhaps it says alot that I feel no requirement to fake positivity I don't feel.  

In truth, I feel very little over the move, same as I felt very little throughout this season.  Just "meh", ok, sure.  Whatever.

Uninspired.  That's the best word.  The Jets make me feel nothing right now.

So great, we have a Coach.  He's....a Coach.  Awesome.  So whats next?  Should I care?

Why do people keep saying this? he was 23 and 25. He didn't get anything out of those guys. He lost with them.

Looks like the Rhule staff building concerns expressed by some of the JN posters was legit after all. It's interesting that Macc and Dinger have already assembled a staff?? 

 

Gang Green’s search took an interesting twist moments before word surfaced that Gase would be in the new guy in charge. Baylor’s Matt Rhule was eliminated after a discrepancy over staffing issues, according to sources. The Jets targeted the coveted program builder that breathed life into Temple and Baylor in recent years before he bailed after team decision makers balked at the idea of him bringing his own offensive coordinator.

 

Rhule did not want to assemble a staff assembled, in part, by general manager Mike Maccagnan and vice president of player personnel Brian Heimerdinger, according to sources.

I like it, I think.

I like the work hes done with QBs, that he knows the division, and hes young

We'll see, the suicide crew doesnt bother me

This was a weird process from the beginning. There wasn't anyone the Jets interviewed who excited me. On paper, McCarthy seemed like the obvious choice at first, but what the heck happened there? Could his interview have been that bad? I go insane when some people here come up with their conspiracy theories about CJ not wanting to pay, or Macc watching his back, but I'd love to know what really happened with MM. We didn't want him, and the Browns decided not even to take an interview. I'm wondering if there's something about him that hasn't come out yet? Oh well, Gase it is, and unlike the clamoring mob, I'll have to support him the way I have any other hire the Jets have made. I've put too much into this to ever turn my back. Still hoping to be there for the good times, LOL.
