Beerfish Posted April 24, 2019 Share Posted April 24, 2019 It all changed when Sam Darnold fell into our laps last year. Having said that after the draft I may have another opinion if our GM does his usual. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Darnold, along with the new coaching staff will make this a perennial contender for a playoff spot. How well we draft will go a long way towards making us a contender for home field advantages and bye weeks. I have my fingers crossed. We'll have a better idea of what to argue about tomorrow night. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joenamathwouldn'tcry Posted April 24, 2019 Share Posted April 24, 2019 Not going to be the " Same Old Jets". Boy do I hate that saying. Chris Johnson is not his brother. He seems much more interested, involved, and accountable. He didn't farm out the Coaching search process to some old washed up has-beens like his brother. He is also hands on. The Wood Man did everything at arm's length. Chris Johnson was not afraid to hire strong personalities, and I am confident he will allow them to do their jobs with support, without interference, and with accountability. Adam Gase, and Williams futures are not tied to Mike Maccagnan. Maccagnan's fate will be decided within the next two seasons. Not necessarily so with Gase and Co. There is an different aura of seriousness and professionalism surrounding the Jets recently. Witness the type of players they pursued in free agency, and the way they are presenting themselves in press releases and interviews. I know talk is cheap, but what is cheaper is to have Mamby Pamby figures like Toilet Bowles, as the face of your franchise, trying to deliver your message. We have a franchise quarterback. I don't want to hear the bullsh*t that he only did it for four games, and the interception blah blah blah. If you are a football fan and know what your looking at, it should be obvious. Sam Darnold will be a top quarterback for the long term. It's that simple. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UntouchableCrew Posted April 24, 2019 Share Posted April 24, 2019 I mean, the primary factor is Darnold, with Gase's development of him being key. When I was younger and would lament the Jets never getting over the hump my dad was always quick to point out that "before Belichick and Brady the Pats were just the Jets in red uniforms." If Darnold continues his upward trajectory there's no reason we can't be a consistently good playoff caliber team. If he's great or Maccagan gets luckier we could have a real shot at winning it all. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rangerous Posted April 24, 2019 Share Posted April 24, 2019 it's different. they changed their management structure and finally hired an experienced head coach instead of a first time nfl guy. they also hired an offensive minded coach. first time since kotite and they brought in a pretty good defensive coach. this isn't the first time that had a pairing like this. again kotite was coach but their defensive coordinator wasn't anyone of an repute. williams is a really good defensive coach. and they apparently finally got a qb to build around. the only downside is mac but even there, a couple of good drafts will have him back in good stead.

In what defense? In a 3-4, would they be better than Mo and Sheldon at their primes, with Leo too? What did that get us? In a 4-3 that we say we are not running? That has potential, but better than Donald and Suh? We don't have Dante Fowler to play the EDGE. My point is that we are back to 2015-Quinnen may be the BPA at 3, but he is really not a fit for this team, just like Leo was not either.

NYJ1 Posted April 24, 2019 Share Posted April 24, 2019 Well, I definitely think this is a new era of football? Our team had almost no talent at all going into the offseason. There's only one way this team can go and that is up. I just don't know if this new era involves a SB? Making the playoffs? A winning record? That's all nonsense to me. The only thing that matters to me is winning the SB. Mac hasn't shown himself to be a very good draft guy. So this is why I have such reservations as to whether they'll ever win the SB.
