If this team doesn't have a winning record it's a pretty crappy run.

bd71 Posted September 18, 2023 Share Posted September 18, 2023 Just not sure how long the leash is anymore. OLine still needs to be fixed. QB needs to be fixed. McDonald inactive (I thought first round picks were supposed to play and contribute). Where’s Tippman? Gave $7M to a washed up Cook when that money could have been spent elsewhere to improve the team. JD has hit on some players, but he’s clearly missed on a number of picks and signings. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can’t say he missed on rodgers with this injury. And it’s not up to jd to bench Izzy, McDonald and tippman. If nothing else it shows a disconnect between coach and gm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe W. Namath Posted September 18, 2023 Share Posted September 18, 2023 After this year, Douglas will be 26-57 as gm of the jets. Id go out on a limb and say that is the worst record for a gm after 5 years in nfl history. I just cannot ignore these facts anymore. Its open season on Douglas and Saleh. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brown is 100 Years old and you couldn’t expect him to fall off a clif????? ARE YOU SERIOUS?? RODGERS IS 40 YEARS OLD AND BATTLED INJURIES LAST SEASON, PLS THE GM GOT INJURY PROTECTION IN THE TRADE SO CLEARLY HE HAD A IDEA THIS COULD HAPPEN!! NO EXCUSES FOR HAVING THE WORST QB IN FOOTBALL AS THE BACKUP ESPECIALLY CONSIDERING THE TEAM HATES HIM AND YOUR QB IS 40 !! Respectfully the pathetic excuses are straight 🤡🤡🤡🤡 time lol the caps. "Respectfully" Again - 5 years? Did he really? And funny I don't recall anyone talking about the big risk of Brown falling off a cliff this year before the season started, yet now it's this super obvious thing that everyone saw coming. People complained about our lack of depth, in case Brown went down or Becton got hurt again. But now acting like Brown was some liability that needed to be replaced is just revisionist history. Same as Rodgers going down in week 1, yet now it's this super obvious thing that everyone saw coming. It's just not the case. People were worried about whether he was 2022 Rodgers or MVP Rodgers, but this "how can we expect this old man to not get hurt" was never a thing. Also it's funny that you're using a positive(JD protecting himself in the trade - which ended up being huge) against him as if it's evidence of anything. Wilson wasn't going anywhere. His cap hit wouldn't allow it. Like him or not, he was going to be the backup regardless of who we brought in. Again you can put that on JD for drafting him in the first place, but saying "how can he make him the backup?!?!"....what other options were there? Bring in Gardner Minshew? C'mon. The funny thing is, I don't even feel the need to make excuses for this guy. I'm mainly just amused that all it takes is one loss for you guys to completely lose your minds. It's comical. You literally just posted a paragraph in all caps. One game man. One game. ONE. GAME. Can we not? Is that possible?

JoeNamathsFurCoat Posted September 18, 2023 Share Posted September 18, 2023 Woody is an idiot. This season should not be allowed to just be flushed down the toilet. But even if it is, what’s the plan for next season? A 40y old QB returning from Achilles tear and Zach Wilson? It’s as if the GM has a death wish with ZW. Any draft mistake is forgivable. But why insist on tripling and quadrupling down no matter what? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But why insist on tripling and quadrupling down no matter what? Cap. Cutting Wilson pre-draft & FA: $20M dead cap Cutting him after: $15M dead cap You could trade him for a lighter penalty, but who is trading for him? My guess is they wanted to rehab his stock under Rodgers. A full year of "wow he's a new man. He's taken so many steps forward! You'll unfortunately have to take our word for it, since we have Aaron Rodgers playing, but trust us!" in the hopes that it would sucker some team into taking him off our hands next spring. Unfortunately Rodgers got hurt and now we're stuck with him. But yeah, as soon as it was decided that Rodgers was the guy(which was just as much a Woody decision as it was a JD decision), Zach's spot here in 2023 was cemented. It was cheaper to keep him on the roster, and even with that we still couldn't afford another decent QB. Zach as the backup was almost a package deal with bringing in Rodgers or any expensive QB. Also you can bring up the AR discount and Davis retirement money now, which is all well and good, only problem is that no QBs are left on the market. You'll have to trade for them at this point, and no team is trading a decent QB this early. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty sure Adams will grade out better by almost every system. I think Pinnock was among the worst coverage safeties in the NFL. TEs had 100% completion rate.
