Didn't we just hear for the last four years, how Todd Bowles crappy friend Kacy Rogers completely sucked as a DC? Didn't our offensive coordinators get fired three out of the last four seasons? I don't understand the criticism and lambasting of the owner and GM, trying make sure we are not in that situation this time around? Apparently they were ready to fire Todd Bowles during the bye week but there was nobody on the coaching staff capable of being an interim head coach correct? So why wouldn't they dot Their I's and cross their T's? I don't know if it's the media or the fans or whatever but it seems like everyone just wants to find something to critique and complain about.

DMan77 Posted January 16, 2019 Share Posted January 16, 2019 I feel like it went like this: Day 1 of the Hire: 90% upset, 10% happy Day 2: 75% upset, 25% happy Day 3: 50% upset, 50% happy And so forth. But as is true in life in general; the detractors and complainers are MUCH louder and more cynical than most of the folks who are okay with giving the hire a chance. I also think there's a small population here (and everywhere to be fair) that wants things to fail so that they can be right about this hiring being a wrong. And they can say "See, I told you so in those 30,000 posts I made." 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post RutgersJetFan Posted January 16, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted January 16, 2019 It's not so much the hiring of Williams as it is the insistence that whomever they hired as HC had to agree to him as well. Pretty crappy way to do business. Hiring Williams is fine, but the entire process through which hiring both Gase and Williams happened really showed how inept the Johnson brothers, Macaggnan, and the entire franchise is. Hiring a coordinator before hiring the head coach is ******* dumb. And not giving the head coach of a NFL team the right to pick and choose his staff is indefensible. Reality is we can blame GM's, HC's, or whatever for the demise of this franchise for the past decade, but the incompetence begins at the top and it doesn't look like much changed this offseason based on the way things went down. This franchise has never done anything to inspire confidence from its fans so I'm not sure what they did this time around that's supposed to change that. 4 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bealeb319 Posted January 16, 2019 Share Posted January 16, 2019 My guy was jim Schwartz who I knew we weren't going to hire but I think he will be a great head coach somewhere in the next couple of years. Gase was pretty much the one coach I did not want us to hire simply because I thought every single other potential coach we brought in had more to offer. I am not unhappy with the hire and am still a fan of the team. (it is okay to not get your way every now and then but still support the team) I hope that I am proven wrong. For the record last time around the guy I really wanted was Bowles so it is not like I am a guru at selecting coaches.Sent from my LGUS991 using JetNation.com mobile app 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jets Voice of Reason Posted January 16, 2019 Share Posted January 16, 2019 It’s really not that complicated. Gregg Williams is a better coach than Kacy Rodgers and though his rankings are varied, he basically knows what he is doing and at least he has a competent vision for what he wants the defense to do. Regardless of who you wanted more as head coach, Gase will do a better job in all likelihood than Bates/Bowles could do. So on the face they upgraded. Here are the issues that most people have problems with including myself. Jamming a staff on a head coach creates the potential for a lot of trust issues and problems. It isn’t guaranteed to happen, but you are creating a source of friction and delegating responsibilities on people that the head coach didn’t personally pick themselves. While the fans see this interaction one day a week, the coaches spend quite a bit of time together and mistrust or miscommunication can create a lot of conflict. The organizational chart puts the honus of decisionmaking on the owners, who are quite clearly out of their element. They have double downed essentially and decided hey, though Bowles and Mac had clear friction, let’s basically do the same thing to the new head coach and his staff. Meanwhile Gase says he’s fine with it, but for a dude who seems really high strung, i bet he’d make a lot of concessions to make sure he can head coach again right away even if he doesn’t love the arrangement. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey sorry man I wish I knew how to look up my older posts but I definitely am telling you the truth.

Just don't expect everyone to put on the green goggles. 10-34 the last 3 years does that to you. Especially when the process by which we reached the end result of Gase/Williams as a duo was messy, to put it lightly. The best you can say is we made the correct hires but the means by which we landed there were flawed. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What is a quarterback coach? An offensive coordinator? Tim Tebow in the playoffs? Peyton Manning in the playoffs? The best quarterback stats in a season ever with Manning in Denver? Jay Cutler's best season as a professional ever with the Bears? How can you possibly say he hasn't been successful? He beat the Jets five out of six times didn't he?

Quote Greenbloodblitz Posted December 31, 2018 Starting a thread to post news about coaches becoming available and possibly being the new head coach of the New York Jets. Just heard Adam Gase from the Dolphins ..and Greg Williams from the Browns.. are available. Post any of your thoughts on head coaching possibilities here... Also there is a presser at 2 p.m. today with Mike maccagnan and Chris Johnson. Quote Greenbloodblitz Posted January 9 Would definitely like Williams as our DC. and I also like Todd Monkey as somebody referred to him as. I'm just not feeling Mike McCarthy for some reason. I would like somebody younger and more aggressive like Gase, Monken and Williams as DC Quote Greenbloodblitz Posted January 10 I used to really like Joe Benigno...I do think Evan Roberts puts on a good show. CMB is currently blowing them all away including Francesa. However the fat man is still informative and such an egotist he's funny to listen to. I've heard Benigno screw up a few times not even knowing who was free agents and who we drafted so he seems to be half as dedicated as he claims to be. If anybody has done their research Adam Gase is a very qualified head coach now.. and actually has a great reputation around the league except for a few of his Primadonna malcontents that he sent packing which is a good thing. I'm hoping for Monken as OC and Williams as DC Quote Greenbloodblitz Posted January 8 I think it's either Gase or Monken... after doing some research I think those are the best choices. How about Gase and Rex as DC!? So yeah, pretty legit then. Dec. 31 post calling for Gase and Williams is certainly before either name was really mentioned as HC or DCo, so yeah. You called for it, and called it. Kudos. 5 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The problem is you're giving the Johnsons and their front office the benefit of the doubt and they have not done anything since buying the franchise to deserve such leeway. There's far more reason to believe this situation is going to end poorly because, well, every situation has ended poorly so far, and this one is off to a pretty terrible start. Reality is the Jets are run by the football version of James Dolan, but Woody or Wold don't play a kazoo on national television so they doesn't come off as blatant. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post ZachEY Posted January 16, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted January 16, 2019 The team has 14 wins in 3 years, and you ask "what would make me happy?" How about not retaining the GM, who may suddenly get better, but was the architect of those past 3 losing seasons and has a documented history of failure in acquiring players? How about not hiring a coach who seems clearly to have been our 3rd choice, who was fired by our rival, and who has a history of failure to this point? How about not continuing this absurd organizational structure where everyone is on the level and reports to the owner? How about not hiring your coordinators first, and dictating your HC hire by who's willing to be okay with that? The only way to be happy about this, in my estimation, is if you believe it was all Bowles' fault - which, many do, but that's dumb. And, if you don't believe it's dumb, then you probably should hope we can get Ardarius Stewart and Chad Hansen back, so that Gase can "coach 'em up." So, what will make me happy? If it works. Right now, I'm just indifferent. But, if all of these dumb things the Jets have done, somehow combine to not just be more failure - and they start winning, I will be happy. But, I'm not jumping on board before. Nope. 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For instance, all Jets fan should be critical of both of those two clowns. Macc more than anybody for building a college teams level and in the process missing on about everybody in the draft when he is not overpaying for scrubs. He is almost at the Matt Millen level, if not there. The other douchebag whose Football IQ is probably around 1, not only retained Macc but also gave him a vote of confidence with praise and everything. I love Darnolds but wouldn't you have taken Mahomes instead and get all those 3 second round back that we surrendered cause this clown though Hackenberg was the real deal. Macc got his fall guy probably bought himself another 4 years with this orchestrated move. We the fans paid dearly getting a second tier coach instead of the real deal. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
