hmhertz Posted December 18, 2023 Share Posted December 18, 2023 Jiminity Cricket Johnson went to USC to hire Hudson Houck and here is how that turned out- Houck spent the next nine years coaching the offensive line for the Dallas Cowboys. At times during Houck's tenure the Cowboys' line was one of the most dominant in the history of the game. The 203 sacks they allowed in nine years under Houck were the fewest of any NFL team in that span. Six offensive linemen earned 22 trips to the Pro Bowl under Houck, including Larry Allen (7), Nate Newton (5), Erik Williams (4), Ray Donaldson (2), Mark Stepnoski (2) and Mark Tuinei (2). Hall of Fame running back Emmitt Smith earned a pair of rushing titles during Houck's tenure, and rushed for over 1,000 yards every season. He was also the assistant head coach from 1994 to 1997. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rangerous Posted December 18, 2023 Share Posted December 18, 2023 Or just hire a Callahan or Scarnecchia. There are many capable oline coaches out there. The jets need one who doesn’t kill the players during practice. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bitonti Posted December 18, 2023 Share Posted December 18, 2023 Someone else made a decent point even if you could convince this great line coach to defect he'd be signing on to an organization with the GM and hc in lame duck years... Rodgers 1 foot in retirement. No stability no long term plan.

It would be interesting to see if this was higher than the norm. It looks like some of the oline players are mailing it in and that could lead to more injuries if they don’t use the proper techniques while blocking. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post jetsfan4life72 Posted December 19, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted December 19, 2023 Keith Carter has been as big of a problem as injuries have been. During TC Saleh was talking about how there was a huge learning curve for the OL. Three games left and we still have OL passing guys off for free shots at the QB. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Waka Flocka Flacco Posted December 20, 2023 Share Posted December 20, 2023 The OL coach isn't why the OL sucks. The OL sucks because Joe Douglas is a stupid person. He gave Gase a bonus prove it year instead of committing to a coach and system but went ahead with an immediate full rebuild of the line anyway. Gase gets fired and they change to an offense that exactly zero of Becton, Lewis, McGovern, Van Roten, Fant would have been signed for in the first place. Dumb hope prevails over logic and instead of getting multiple guys who fit in the new system they trade three picks for one guard. It's not the OL coach. It's not injuries. It's not because minimum salary backups are taking reps at multiple positions (I mean is this guy even for real). It's piles of moronic decisions and there's not one neat trick to fix it. If they keep the band together for 2024 they're going to be the expansion Browns for five years after that, and if they keep it together for 2025 it's going to be ten. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wish all of JD's fanbois would take an hour or so to peruse the depth charts of all the teams that have winning records, this year. They have 2nd string offensive linemen that would be starters on the Jets, right now. And almost all of them were taken in rounds 3-7. Teams like the Cowboys have starting Tackles that weren't even drafted. JD makes this look hard, but it isn't. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamesr Posted December 21, 2023 Share Posted December 21, 2023 I found it interesting that of the 8 OL in this article about "building the AFC Pro Bowl team", 2 of these were Jets players not very long ago. One was let go and many posters here were highly critical of the move, but the other was a regular poster boy for "how bad our talent level sucked". well I guess he doesn't suck that bad on a different team with a different system / coaches. https://www.nfl.com/news/nfl-offensive-player-rankings-week-16-building-the-afc-2024-pro-bowl-games-roste Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GVR (Van Rotten as the fans called him) was terrible in this scheme, but obviously there is a scheme where he does better.

The personnel is bad, the depth is bad, the injuries have been crippling, and the coaching is bad. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
