Lions, Texans, Browns and maybe Jags are all playoff teams.

Tampa Bay won the Super Bowk doing that 3 years ago. I doubt anyone thought  that Rodgers would get hurt 4 plays into the season. The acquisition of Rodgers was popular at the time. Obviously, because of his injury it didn’t workout his season. 
20/20 Hindsight 

So you think this is all going to work out next year?  That’s cute.

Over the last decade? 2014-2023?

Clearly the Jets. Nobody else is really close. No playoffs, one winning record.

I’ve often felt Jets fans overdramatize the overall lack of success of the franchise throughout history — it’s been a “bottom third” franchise but we have a Super Bowl and have had a few runs in the 80s and late 90s-2000s where we were pretty good. We compare favorably (or similarly) to more franchises that you’d think.

But during the 2011-present run it’s just been miserable and we’re the worst NFL team over that span. Nothing to feel good about at all, really.

It might with the right moves to go along with Rodgers. He certainly will be a huge upgrade over what we had this year.

No way....  only a poorly run team with no future would have mortgaged the future the way the Jets did.  Rodgers  stats in 2022 weren't better than the average QB.   The Jets are a desperate, poorly managed team.  Worst in all of sports. No competent GM or coach in 13 years.

Not how good teams are run. Good teams never would have taken on Rodgers. Steelers weren't set at QB. They had zero interest. They have a real coach, a real GM that run that team.

Is there any question what franchise has been the absolute worst over the last decade?   All those teams have some stability at QB and are set up for success in the near future.  The Jets go all in on 40 year old QB with a maybe two year window.   Then what?  Another decade of ineptitude?   
 

 

In addition to the longest playoff draught in all of professional sports, they also hold the below. 500 longest losing record streak as well!

Rodgers was all Woody. 

JD and Saleh had to make the playoffs this year. there were plenty of QBs ( Carr, Minshew, Brissett, and maybe a few others who could have done that). but once Rodgers got here it was SB or bust. why would they want that kind of pressure on them.?

and JD hates giving up draft picks and pick the one QB who he had to give up 2 prime picks AND a swap.

Favre was Woody, Tebow was Woody, and now Rodgers is Woody. cant blame anybody for doing what his boss wants.

Don’t forget Rams even more recently.

Another Joe Douglas/Jets gut punch is when the Packers beat the Bears tonight, in a win and you're in situation. A year ago, the Packers were faced with the same situation in the last game of the season, but Rodgers came up short vs the Lions and the Packers missed the playoffs.

Average QB play is three standard deviations higher than we have had in the last 10 years.

It sucks but Rodgers was a smart move, it just didn’t work.

The Jets aren’t a "QB away" team.

If Rodgers had stayed healthy, does anyone really believe that they'd have been a real contender with this offensive line and only one viable receiving threat?

At some point you realize that it’s not the jets thing to win and give the fans something to be proud of or you continue to delude yourself into thinking they were a couple moves away this year, just like the year before. 
 

Take the green pill and accept the results.  
 

After the 2025 house cleaning , there will be a tear down rebuild with second class newbies.  They might be good in 2027. 
 

maybe.

All part of the 12 year plan, just sit back and enjoy it and it will be all the sweeter when JD puts it all together in year 12.

They are not remotely similar situations

The Jets were on their way to building something competitive here, but then they got impatient after preaching 'patience' to the fans for years.

They went after the franchise Qb a year too early and should have kept Darnold for one more year.

When Wilson did not work out they went into full 100% panic mode with the Rodgers move, they convinced themselves they were a QB away and also the utter fable that a good QB fixes everything on a team.

They went so 'all in' on one player they destroyed the rebuild of the team in the process.

The Owner, GM and coach get exactly what they deserve.  

Unfortunately the fans once again get what they do not deserve.
