That's why people are commenting. They're not sold. I'm rooting like hell for him. I loved the hire. But I'm starting to get "how long is too long before we start talking about the elephant in the room" vibes. What are you basing this on for 2022? The first quarter of two preseason games when the starters were on the bench watching? Please. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are mistaking me for someone I'm not. I don't pretend to know if Saleh is or isn't the guy. His HC acumen so far has been concern. Zachs play and "development" are a concern. The scales lean the wrong way on both but the books not written yet. I'm just not gonna put my b**** in a blender becuase this team look like it's looked for the last decade plus.... bad. Unlike many of us the ****show this org puts on every sunday doesn't ruin my whole day. We are the football equivalent of murphys law until proven otherwise. I've learned to enjoy the ride and laugh as the wheels continually fall off year after year. Unlike many of our brethren I'm not into the hopium or fooling myself into thinking this time we got it right.... or Sean Payton is gonna come save us. No one is gonna save us everything is on fire and I'm just enjoying the flames. You want to go find a bucket to attempt to douse the flames that's your prerogative and it's assuredly an exercise in futility. But whatever fly a plane or something. That being said looking at it objectively continuity is probably better than acting like a banana republic and executing every regime at the first sign of trouble. That doesn't mean keep a s***ty QB, HC, or GM. I'd rather an exec who knows when to cut bait than one who doubles down on mistakes. If Zach sucks this year and we're in position to grab a top QB I hope JD has the b**** to do it. If not it will speak volumes to his management style. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoubleDown Posted August 23, 2022 Share Posted August 23, 2022 Joe Douglas and Robert Saleh have much to prove this season. The Jets need to show some results. If they are picking in the top 5 or even top 10 again, then the rebuild has failed. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Payton is his own man, a champion, and has an ego just a big as Tuna's. He'll do what he wants regardless of what his boss from 20 years ago suggests. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know you guys are tired of starting over every 2-3 years but that’s where you are The team needs people at the top that know how to fix this. By fix I mean 1. Finding a QB and 2. Building a roster and depth. 3. Competent coaching. Go hire Payton and let Payton pick the GM. Same setup as KC. Payton knows QB talent, he knows football. He put together teams that were consistently competitive and always built with good depths through good drafts. in addition, having a coach who is also the de facto O coordinator ensures continuity with the QB and offense whereas having a D minded coach that ends up with good offense, having the o coordinator poached. Paton can fix your mess. Write the check or the Cowboys will. You obviously missed the fake that the Jets are now 2-0 in the ever important preseason. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even taking into consideration the failure of his COVID draft, and Zack underwhelming, IMHO he's done much more good by FAR. I'm not sure how you can come to that conclusion. Is there promise and potential with some of his picks and free agent acquisitions? Yes, but many of them are still completely unproven on the field. It's all going to come down to whether these young players become a productive core of the team in the years to come or they straight up bust. We can project that Zach, AVT, Moore, Carter, Sauce, Wilson, Johnson, Breece, Lawson, Tomlinson, Uzomah, Conklin, Reed, etc. are going to become great players for the Jets, but until they actually do so on the field against real competition, that's all it is, a projection. Like I said, this is a big year for Joe Douglas. The Jets team he has personally constructed needs to start producing results. Another top 5 pick would be a disaster and show that the rebuild is failing. The only thing Joe Douglas has proven thus far is that he can tear down a team and continue to accumulate top 5 picks. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IIRC, I've always felt the jury was out on them all. My initial opinion of Ullrbich is not good. But then again, he wasn't given much to work with last year. I think I was optimistic about Saleh when he was hired but, right now, I'm not sure what we have with him. Though, again, he wasn't given much to work with last year. As for LaFleur, he definitely started to grow on me in the 2nd half of last season. But he's got more weapinz to work with this year so let's see what the offense can do. The bottom line for me is that the jury is still out on all 3 guys. At least with the (seemingly) good draft and FA, I think we'll learn a lot about all of them this year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FTL Jet Fan Posted August 24, 2022 Share Posted August 24, 2022 So a tweet saying Payton was interested in coaching the Jets amongst other teams, and we are honestly believing he would want to coach the Jets. Sorry I don’t see it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rex-n-effect Posted August 24, 2022 Share Posted August 24, 2022 Payton can have his pick of teams. If Saleh gets replaced after the season, it's most likely because Wilson didn't look good and the team had another lousy season. Very little reason why Payton would want to put his reputation on the line to inherit a losing team without a franchise QB. He could just as easily slide into a more competitive team. The Cowboys will probably make a move for him. If McDaniels flounders in Vegas, the Raiders could be a destination. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
