Warfish Posted January 23, 2022 Share Posted January 23, 2022 Quote How much patience should a team have with a new Head Coach? As much as they earn. "This one guy sucked early then did good, so our guy will too" may be the single most overused fallacy in football fandom. For every Bill Bellichek there are hundreds of Adam Gase's. If your Head Coach sucks early and loses alot, the odds are you have a Gase, and all waiting will do it lose more games and slow up the hiring of the next guy. The same goes for QB's, frankly. 2 years, max. Prove something to me within 2 years, or goodbye. Doesn't necessarily have to be wins and loses alone, for coaches big increases in offensive/defense ranking, for QB's competative production, etc. But got to show me something to warrant patience beyond year 2 for me. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Record is secondary. One thing we know. The 49ers don’t miss Saleh or Lefluer. One thing we don't know is what Saleh is going to turn out to be yet. We already knew that LeFleur wasn't the one in SF that was calling all the offense in the first place. He was a hire that had a question mark. So far after the first 5 games, he's proven to be a pretty good one, and hopefully will get better with experience. One can only hope that Saleh is a leader of men. He doesn't have to be best DC we've ever had, because that's not his job. His job is to be the best HC we've ever had. If he can't lead this team in year 3 and past to the playoff's then we'll be needing to look elsewhere again. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
varjet Posted January 23, 2022 Share Posted January 23, 2022 Judge was fired because Gettleman needed to go. Judge’s mistake was allowing himself to be hired by Gettleman. Now Judge may not have been great either. But we will never know. So for the Jets, this past year was really year 1 for the regime. JD basically got 2 practice years. Next year can end up like the Giants if they look terrible again. but the key to the article is “hired as a team.” The best way for the Jets to approach their organization is to view JD and Saleh hired as a team in 2021. They obviously draft together. If they do a bad job this off season and next season they could be fired in January 2023. It would be aggressive but it is possible. But I think the 2023 season is the telling one. 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed. At least show me something in 2 years. Saleh's first year he didn't show much. He has a lot to prove next year. It's easy to have a terrible record for 2 straight years. The hard part is turning the thing around. When Parcells got to the Jets after a 1-15 season, he almost got us to the playoffs immediately. And in 2 years we were in the AFC CG (and with castoff Vinny as our starting QB). I know that's more the exception than the rule but, again, at least show me something. Fwiw, I have some hope for ZW for next year. I'm not as sold on Saleh but will keep an open mind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevinc855 Posted January 23, 2022 Share Posted January 23, 2022 2-3 Years is usually fair. Making the Judge comparison doesnt work. The Giants were actually regressing from his first year and he was terrible with the media. If your team is getting worse, not better, then there is no need for patience. If Saleh wins only 4 games next year, how does everyone feel the conversation should go? Finally, like tons of other coaches, do we REALLY think the Bengals got to where they are because of Zak Taylor or because they have this guy playing Burrow at QB with a guy named Chase catching his balls. I'm a believer the roster will always be more indicitve of how many wins a teams get over the guy with the headset. Bottom line, 2 years you prob know what you have in the coach. The Benglas made a decision they were comfortable with him taking their 2nd year QB into the next season. It worked out. Because if the Bengals did poorly this year, he would of been fired. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Woody doesn’t have a spine. You are correct about Leon but,in fairness, the times were different back then. Leon today might have felt pressure to make a change because Michaels would have been roasted by the media and Fan Boards like this. Back then none of that existed. I remember years ago when no HCs were fired after a season ended. Today there a good 5-7 annually and we even have what's known as Black Monday for the anticipated firings.

Get Zach right with good OL play and a true #1 WR and get the D fixed and the culture changes. Which direction this rebuild goes depends on JD. Can’t have a bad draft. He needs to hit on all 9 picks and get major contributions from the first 6 picks and get quality depth with the other 3. Then it’s the CS responsibility to develop and provide opportunities to succeed Hoping JD can maneuver in the draft to continue acquiring future picks in ‘23. We are 2 quality drafts from contending if Zach develops into a quality top 12 QB. NO MORE 2020 drafts!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was happy with Saleh at the end of the year. He’s not throwing players under the bus to the media , but he is benching the players who are not performing (Mims, Perine). He had a decimated team and had them playing well at the end of the year against playoff teams who were playing for something (Bills, Bucs). I think he has been good but there is always room for improvement. But I still believe for coaches it comes down to players. If you don’t have the players, you won’t win. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hess wanted to retain him and offered him an extension if he was willing to get help. The team was constantly under pressure by the media. There was pressure to build a stadium, pressure to win. Hess turned it all off. He was a self made man and nobody told him what to do. kraft is a self made man. Woody is a tool. No conviction at all.

That team was a real QB away from being great. People judge the coaches,to me it is more the GM. If you have a no talent roster, you won't win a lot of games. You also have to look at the team. Is the coach playing a lot of young players? Are they improving? Are they quitting in mid November or are they playing hard the whole season. As a fan, nothing bothered me more than watching my team lose, and the HC refusing to play young players to see if they were any good. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For example if a coach takes a perennial contender and runs it into the ground he’s out within 2 years. Now with the Jets situation I think Saleh and staff should be given 3 full years providing that team shows marked improvement. In that span HC will have his type of players his systems will be in place. Second year should show an upward trend with a few clunker games to be expected as team starts to learn what it takes to be a consistent winning team If by the end of third year no discernible improvement has been made he’s gotta go Also Waldo was a really really good coach. That team was just hitting its stride under him with more room to grow and improve They were about to go on a period of success and IMO they win two Lombardi trophies in a 4 year span under Michael’s Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Embrace the Suck Posted January 23, 2022 Share Posted January 23, 2022 It depends on the situation. For instance Mike Tomlin inherited a SB team with a franchise QB. He walked into an optimum situation, which to his credit he didn't ruin, but he didn't have to do much either to be successful in short time. Whereas Saleh inherited a sh*t show that had just gone 2-14, essentially had nothing in place (players, systems, functional org/culture), and understandably should take longer to succeed (at least record wise). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BurntDice Posted January 23, 2022 Share Posted January 23, 2022 Depends on the scenario. If they are taking over an established team like the cowboys with McCarthy then you expect playoff wins. If he doesn’t win within 2 years then he’s on the hot seat when you are building from the ground up like how Shannahan or zac Taylor or say saleh then 3 years. In the 3rd year you should be at the very minimum be competing for a playoff spot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SomebodytoAnybody47 Posted January 23, 2022 Share Posted January 23, 2022 HC will go as far as their QB takes them. So Salehs success all rides on whether Zach takes the next step next year. Usually it’s a 2nd year jump or they’re just not very good. So they better do whatever they can do ensure that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Minus the murdery stuff. Plus, the Steelers blew both of their 6th round draft picks that year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
