Jets have never had a good GM. Mangini was the defecto gm when he was HC. He wanted to build strong OL, got MT to get some good players. He just couldn’t coach a D anywhere near Rex. Rex took mangini’s 20th ranked D and instantly made it number 1. The roster starting fading after those 2 years of back to back AFC championships because it was MT and Rex drafting/ building roster. This is similar to know, Joe D has no clue how to build a team, and his HC isn’t gm worthy either. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ME TOOOO.... I love Rex and miss him as Jets HC. Always a fun time and he was the only one with the pure football brans to outmatch Belichick. Rex was and can still be a great HC so long as you don't let him take over the roster decisions. He's an emotional reactionary and you should never let such a personality be in charge of shopping for the groceries. They make great leader types but they are not objective enough to make the personnel decisions. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joe W. Namath Posted December 5, 2023 Share Posted December 5, 2023 Rex was a total fraud. All smoke and mirrors. Those 2 years were fun though.

That prime Rex team would steamroll through our schedule this year.. all the piss poor offensive line play and string of mediocre QBs throughout the league. It's not so much Rex I miss as much as it is the roster we had then. Give me the 09' OL and Sanchez+ Braylon or Cotchery with the rest of this current roster and I think we're a legit SB contender. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He built a great roster except for QB. Even now I think he could do it. I also think Saleh is a good HC but needs a weaselly control freak like Mangini as GM. Speaking of which. Does anyone else think Saleh is going to become the next Pete Carrol? I think he needs less control over the offense but he still seems to check all the other boxes to me. We need an OC with some balls. I mean someday we will get an OC that knows you're aloud to mislead the other team. Maybe even exploit their tendencies. Hello.

We need an OC with some balls. I mean someday we will get an OC that knows you're aloud to mislead the other team. Maybe even exploit their tendencies. Hello. You play to win the game. Mangini pushed for a great OL. Rex definitely benefited. With sanchez as qb, strong running game was essential. Allowed D to control game, control and run down the clock, keep D fresh, etc. Difference between this line and that line. Teams knew the run was coming in 09/10, but still hard to stop. They know it’s coming now but without a dominant OL quite easy to stop when you know the run is coming. If only JD took that blueprint. Make the OL number 1 priority. Notice when Rex was HC, MT starting picking coples, etc. Guys Rex wanted. Once again we have a gm with no backbone, favoring the D for his HC. We once took Dbrick and Mangold with 2 first round picks when mangini was around. You could put $$ on it, Joe D was never going to draft 2 Olineman with his first two picks, even. We had 4 picks in the top 35 2 years ago. I don’t think Oline was even a thought with one of those picks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greg555 Posted December 5, 2023 Share Posted December 5, 2023 No doubt Rex was a good coach for the short-term. However, he was the epitome of a shooting star.. that’s bright as hell for a brief time..but burns out quickly. Of course the fact that he was a disaster with Buffalo shouldn’t be overlooked..but somehow is by many Jets fans who pine for him to return. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Beerfish Posted December 5, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted December 5, 2023 Stockholm syndrome. As I've said in the past wanting Rex back is like getting kicked in the nuts by a steel toed boot and then pining for the days when you only got kicked in the nuts by a person wearing crocs. We should aspire to not be kicked in the nuts at all rather than enjoy the croc crotch kicks. 3 1 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
