Any of us who have followed this team for more than just a few years, in other words, pretty much everyone on this site, shoudl be skeptical. Words are easy. Actions are hard. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sonny Werblin Posted January 4, 2021 Share Posted January 4, 2021 When CJ said the process might be fast, my only thoughts were to Jim Harbaugh. If Harbaugh wants the job, I think the interviews are over and he get the job. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Warfish Posted January 4, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted January 4, 2021 10 minutes ago, Lith said: Sounds like Chris is saying all the right things. Changing reporting structure, CEO type coach, JD leading the effort. But after 50 mostly futile years, lets say I am skeptical until we see it all actually play out. That's my take as well. The right words in the right order. Now we need to see it happen: 1. Change the Structure: Owner<-GM<-Head Coach<-Asst. Coaches 2. Get us a real Head Coach. Hired and chosen by J.D. and for which J.D. is accountable. 3. Let that Head Coach decide who and what he wants at QB. Be it Fields at #2, or Darnold, or Stafford. 4. J.D., make that QB happen. If we see this happen in the next six months, great. If not... P.S. I get that we now all doubt Darnold's future, but I can't help but remain impressed at his poise in interviews and saying the right things. Refreshing in this day and age. I wish it had worked out, and maybe (doubtful) it still could. Lets see what the new Head Coach thinks. 6 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisfaceoff Posted January 4, 2021 Share Posted January 4, 2021 I feel like he said all the right things. That’s a good first step. Following through with what he said is the real hurdle to get through. I don’t feel good, but knowing Douglas is key, I feel better than I normally would. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BroadwayRay Posted January 4, 2021 Share Posted January 4, 2021 The 50-year thing stood out to me. You don't usually see Jets executives pointing out their failures in such stark terms. Gives me a little glimmer of hope that there are finally some real changes going on. This part got me a little nervous, but of course he's going to be complimentary of the fair-haired wonder ...

Shockwave Posted January 4, 2021 Share Posted January 4, 2021 As I mentioned earlier you don't change the structure of your organization that you had in place over 10 years in one day because of some Cimini tweet. However this is exactly what Jet Fans should be excited about. He didn't give some political non answer. He directly addressed how they are structured in which GM/HC are independent and that they may change it. Great News. Interesting take on the CEO thing. Probably eliminated Daboll, Roman, Bienemy etc. For better or worse this feels different in a good way. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WowOhWow Posted January 4, 2021 Share Posted January 4, 2021 I am actually shocked that Chris hit on all the right tones today. For years we've wanted this team to not make things more difficult on ourselves. We've had poor timing of HC relative to GM. We've had weird GM situations (Steinberg living off campus back when the Jets were at Hofstra). We've had a weird reporting structure. Weird hires everywhere. And owners that didn't address the issues in public. Chris just did that. I give him props. I'm actually optimistic. Add in the fact that I like all the candidates being discussed and this is a good day. Macc, Gase gone. Draft capital. Good QBs at top of draft. A GM that at least knows what we need. Let's go! 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they want Harbaugh, and he wants to be HC with a direct line to ownership, they're not changing the structure. Anyone else? They will report to JD. That's my read anyway.

But if Sam is starting next year, he loses me. what if he starts and sucks and then Jets bench him and let the rookie we drafted play in like week 4 or perhaps he plays and does well and the rookie rides the bench for a season...I bet you be ok with him in those scenarios. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
