this team is arguably worse.  Coaching was bad in 1995-96, but our problems also started at QB and Neil O'Donnell's calf injury in the tunnel.  That team, however, had some good players.  Aaron Glenn, Victor Green, Marvin Jones, Mo Lewis.  On offense, Keyshawn and Chrebet were here.  We lost a ton of games, but at least we watched some players continue to develop.  I remember discussing how our defense played hard, but they tired out because they were on the field so damn long. 

Fast forward to this year and arguably we have a competent QB, but we are so lacking on both sides of the ball.  Who are you excited to see develop these first few games besides Becton, who is now hurt?  Crowder I suppose.  But that's it on offense.  Q on defense?  Anyone else?  Our LBs and CBs are terrible.  Our pass rush is the most putrid I've seen in 40 years of watching this team.  Maye's pretty good, I suppose, but can't do it alone.  That's it.  The cupboard's bare.  

This team is worse than 1996.  Maybe the guys on IR, when they come back, will make me feel differently, but they have a lot of ground to make up on the 96 team.

Arguably?  It is worse

 

Besides Keyshawn and Wayne on offense our defense was pretty bloody talented in 1996.  Hugh Douglas, Mo Lewis, Marvin Jones, Aaron Glenn, Victor Green

Let’s not forget Gase is operating in a league that’s re-writing the offensive record books.  It has never been easier to put up points.

Exactly, look at the rules that were put in since Kotite coached the Jets. Since then you can now throw the ball away when out the pocket, you can slide to protect yourself, you can't hit a QB low, or high, your defense can't blow WRs up, your safeties basically can't hit anyone. Inside Olineman can hold as long as they don't extend their arms. 

Its like night & day.

I even have a Glenn Foley jersey buried in the closet . This team was dreadful . The current team has some possibilities . 

Murrell was another good offensive player on that 1996 team.  Gets overshadowed because of Curtis Martin

That 96 team went 9-7 the following year and contained the nucleus of the team that went to AFC championship in '98.

You can't tell me that this current roster with a few additions will be putting out a winning record next year and then vying to go to a Super Bowl in 2 years.

That's crazy talk.

Without Gase , anything is possible .
