SAR I Posted May 18, 2019 Share Posted May 18, 2019 2 minutes ago, Beerfish said: No, incorrect. A smart CEO makes the change at GM when here fires the previous coach and is damn sure that the new coach he has brought in is going to work well with his existing gm. A stupid CEO keeps on a GM who has done poorly and then goes uh-oh when he realizes a few months later that the coach and the GM are not going to work together. A smart CEO is engaged and on top of his organization. CJ was not. As I said in another post. Patting him on the head for doing a good job when he botched up the whole thing is silly. Mac was bad and had to go. Great. Thanks for letting him set this team up for 2 or 3 years before firing him. Just basic simple good practices and our owners can't do it. There is no difference between anointing Gase HC and interim GM in Feburary and doing it in May. It's not like there were these great GM candidates out there tailor-made to step in on a dime with an entirely new scouting and analytics department with 4 weeks to prepare for free agency and 7 weeks to prepare for the draft. Johnson and Gase were intimately involved in this years FA and draft processes, Mike Maccagnan a mere puppet doing all the dirty work at their behest. Our owner is just fine. He spends money and takes bold chances. That's all any fan would want from its ownership in the NFL. And he got the best HC candidate out there this year in Adam Gase. And he got the best DC candidate out there in Gregg Williams. And he traded up and got us our franchise quarterback. I'd say Mr. Johnson is doing just fine as a new NFL CEO thank you.

You let a GM you probably knew you were going to fire anyway spend 100 mil then run the draft. By doing that you created a rift within the organization with some taking one side and some taking the other. I'm sure some of those people still work in the building. You could have hired a GM after firing Bowles and Macc and let said GM be a big part of the direction of this organization and have a part in hiring the new coach. You could have avoided the HC not liking some of the players picked up in FA and via the draft that he still has to deal with now. Without any GM who is going look for possible players shaking loose from other teams during OTA's, mini camp and training camp since the HC now has to focus on the team and getting them on the same page as him for the regular season how will he find the time to make possible deals that may very well fall through the cracks. Obviously none of this was thought out at all and it makes no difference if you liked Macc or not, doing it at this time was stupid. It should have been done when Bowles was dumped 2 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SAR I Our owner is fine? Our owner is one of the worst in professional sports. Not only have the Johnson Brothers set up a structure that has proven not to work, but they have repeatedly forced GM candidates to accept coaches, rather then set up a partnership. That philosophy resulted in JOHN IDZIK being a general manager of a billion dollar NFL franchise. They have so little football sense and connections in the league that for two of the most recent main hires, they hired Charlie Casserly, a geriatric aged ex-football guy who has no understanding of todays league and went so far as to use an executive search firm, as if they were looking for a VP of Finance, not a General Manager of a New York football franchise. On top of that they are responsible for a stadium that cost $1.6 billion dollars and is an embarrassment compared to what other teams have built in the last 10 years. They updated the team's uniforms this season, and instead of unveiling them with a digital presentation (its 2019), they set up an in-person event, with a D list celebrity, in one of the worst displays of marketing I've ever seen. All this while watching their investment grow from $800 million to over $2 billion. Bad football sense. Bad business sense. Bad marketing sense. What exactly do these guys do well other then being better then James Dolan, the worst owner in the history of professional sports. I have no problem firing Mac, he was terrible at his job. But the way this franchise does things is a result of 2 brothers who have never had to accomplish anything in their lives running a multi-billion dollar organization in one of the most competitive industries on earth.

It takes one guy with a semblance of leadership talent to right this ship. Pauline is being dramatic It takes one guy. Leadership talent preferred, but not necessary. And it takes something else. It's rule number one but it's not the only rule. Parcells had talent for days but he also had the luxury of not being expected to worry about the long run. What leadership ability Mangini had was mostly just a matter of being smart and stubborn, which also got him fired. Of course this is also what makes Belichick successful as well as what got him fired before the Patriots and would have gotten him fired there too if he didn't get results ahead of schedule.

I love the Jets, want them to do well and hope that Gase and whoever we hire works out. That doesn’t mean I blindly support everything about the organization. I’ve followed this team and professional sports my entire life. Woody and Chris Johnson aren’t good at their jobs, if they were this team wouldn’t be in the middle of an 8 year playoff drought with PSLs selling for cents on the dollar. I’m not surprised about your stance though as you take your opinion as fact on this board day in and day out. SAR - Mark Sanchez was a good player who wasn’t given a fair shot to succeed. Truth - Mark Sanchez can’t land a 3rd string job in the league SAR - PSLs are a success because I like my seats. Truth - if something originally cost $5K and is now for sale for $200 it’s not a success for the team. SAR - Chris and Woody make bold moves and 8 years ago made back to back championship games. It’s not their fault it’s because the Pats are in our division. Truth - good owners get good talent by either having people want to work with them or by being humble enough to cede responsibility. Chris and especially Woody Johnson haven’t attracted talent to this organization because they aren’t good at their jobs 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
