Multiple coaches have suggested this weekend the possibility of pressing pause on the season, reconfiguring the schedule to have 12 total regular-season games, and putting teams in hotels for the nine games left to be played.

Disgrace?

[BurnleyJet]

Good it’s means we only lose 12 games.

No meaningless Wins late in the season, bonus.

[peebag]

Never should have been started.

[Nixhead]

If this gets Gase fired quicker Im all for it. If this somehow gives Gase a chance to get back on his feet then play on and keep losing!

[SayNoToDMC]

Do it.  We're losing the first 9 games easy. Let's not make this into a meaningless season where Rex wins game 16 against Miami, getting a Gatorade bath for ******* up our draft position.

Also it's the NFLPA you gotta convince on hotel bubbles. They're the ones who refused.  Their unending commitment to player safety ends at the memberships desire to get the Tuesday buffet at strip clubs.

Less ad revenue?

ok lol

[Gen X Jet]

Knowing the Jets, we’ll lose all 12 but they’ll implement a lottery and get the 6th pick.

Simple and to the point.

Plus I was watching the season finale of Ted Lasso.  Darn good show.

Just think though, if the pause now, and things never start back up again, we'll be the only 0-4 team.

All the others winless teams would be 0-3.  So that would guarantee us the #1 pick right?

This will somehow screw the Jets out of Lawrence

Why? We can not hide in our caves forever. It won't go away with a half quarentine either where essential workers are working but essentially everybody is essential.

Was gonna say NFL throwing Lawrence a bone by not allowing another top recruit to waste away with this franchise.

[Butterfield]

They should have had a 12 game schedule in an 18 week period to begin with.  Multiple bye weeks, hard bubbles, lots of time to make up games.

One way or another, we are NOT getting Trevor Lawrence. We will get screwed or he will not come here. At least we’ll be the 1st and only 0-12 team ever. J E T S JETS JETS JETS!!!!

If they can pull this off they should do it.

I always assumed this season would be less games and in a bubble so this is logical IMO

I hope they bag the entire season. If they keep playing- I’ll keep watching.. Because I am a junkie- and cannot help myself.. This team is absolutely terrible in every single facet of the game. Hate to say it.... this team needs Robert Woody Johnson back. Not because he is a good owner- he is not. Compared to Christopher though- he is a step up and will hopefully blow the whole thing up and at least start putting pressure on people to stop being such a complete embarrassment.

The same Woody Johnson that kept Rex those two additional years, which is what began this whole spiral? 

Alrighty then.

No. 

No way they would have a standard draft in that scenario. They would probably go to a draft lottery to sort it out. It's just not fair to the teams that played only 3 games.

Nice thread title.

Yes. They’re not selling the team. In the land of the blind- the one eyed man is King.

I would take Rex back in a second, right now, as an interim coach.  Pay him a lot and give him direction-motivate the players and focus on developing Darnold.

Throw out Gase and Williams.  Rex runs the defense and works with Cooter on the offense.  Rex was more involved with the offense than Gase is with the defense now.  

As interim Rex reports to JD and follows his direction. Fix the medical and training.

Im all for it speeds up the season faster

The NHL bubble worked tremendously well.  Football would be a lot tougher as the football orgs as in # of people are much  higher and imo the player mentality would not be more accepting but much less accepting of the idea

Anything less than a full season and the NFL will implement a lotto. When we lose said lotto, I’m out for good.
