First in. I believe firing Gase as early as possible will actually give the Jets an advantage. They would have ample time to line up the people they want. Getting a great coach here is possible. It can be done. Fear of that is no reason to keep Gase. Two separate issues. This guy is an utter disaster of a magnitude not seen in quite some time. Just look at his record man. He loses...a lot.

Big_Slick Posted November 3, 2019 Share Posted November 3, 2019 1 hour ago, T0mShane said: 4. if you keep Gase and give him one offseason and you still suck next year, you (1) give the appearance that you gave him a fair chance, (2) you’ve given Douglas a chance to add some attractive pieces to the roster this spring. It’s simply a more attractive job than it will be this year if you dump Gase due in large part to glaring insufficiencies in Maccagnan’s roster Exactly, give Gase and Douglas a year and if the Jets still suck this badly then CJ has every right to fire Gase and after two years fire Douglas and then ..... Nobody whose remotely qualified will come within 3,000 miles of this abortion of a team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pac Posted November 3, 2019 Share Posted November 3, 2019 After watching that post game I'm starting to wonder if he could actually get fired at the end of the year. The o-line being decimated with injuries is not an excuse as to why they're STILL blowing assignment after assignment. If you can't get them on the same page when it's been such a point of emphasis, your team looks listless against a terrible Dolphins team, and players are emotionless and resigned to their fate in the post game, what's the point of having him here? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phill1c Posted November 3, 2019 Share Posted November 3, 2019 It must be way worse for the players to actually be playing for the Jets than it is for us to root for it. Wow it must be the absolute worst: fortunately, they will be able to afford therapy. What about US???? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RevisIsland610 Posted November 3, 2019 Share Posted November 3, 2019 I'm counting the times Gase has said "we just need to be better" after a game and I'm up to 6,397,243. Good times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HawkeyeJet Posted November 3, 2019 Share Posted November 3, 2019 There is an old adage "hire slow and fire fast". Firing Gase right now certainly would allow for that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You keep bumping up against the terrible reputation of this ownership. The OL is terrible, and they've had multiple games with the #3 QB. How does anybody win with that? Grant you a real GM last April probably takes a long look and Minshew or Rudolph later in the draft, or some OL guys way earlier. Willie Taggart?

BettyBoop Posted November 3, 2019 Share Posted November 3, 2019 Chris Johnson, who admittedly went AWOL for two years, pulled his head out of his ass and found himself in this position. After eight games this team is the worst in the league. There are no good choices here. Consider: The offensive genius who Johnson hired has been a disaster. The OL is the worst I've ever seen with basically the SAME players from last year. How is that possible? The guy is abrasive and has a personality disorder and has rubbed everyone the wrong way. The wheels are off and there's no way to put them back on. So do you fire Gase mid-season? In January? Some say that would give the appearance of a dysfunctional franchise. Seriously??? Does anyone think this ISN'T a dysfunctional franchise? The bottom line is no one wants to work for the Johnsons. No one. It started with Bellichick and the napkin and nothing has changed. Do you keep Gase for another season for consistency and appearances? I just can't imagine what this fanbase and reporters would be like in season two of this schitshow. What about Douglas? He hasn't had much to work with but the one main move he's made has been terrible. $8mm for Kalil who is actually worse than Spencer Long and Harrison. That's $8mm that could have been carried over to next year. Everyone is jumping up and down about getting a third round pick for Leo, but Mac got a second and a serviceable player for Sheldon. I'm hopeful he's better than Mac and Idzik but all we have to base that on is his 'pedigree'. Let's imagine for a moment that he isn't the guy to turn this team around. Chris Johnson, being prodded by Gase, gave him a SIX year, $6mm per, deal! While much has been made about the appearance of firing a coach after eight games or one season, the real problem with this organization is Johnson insisting that the coach and the GM both report to him. It doesn't matter if it works for other organizations, having Chris or Woody Johnson making football decisions is the reason we are where we are today. The only hope here is for Douglas to be the miracle worker many say he is. If he's not, there needs to be an intervention by the league, ala, George Young and the Giants. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
