It's all about "access".  If the Zach Rosenblatt’s and Connor Hughes’s of the world asked tough questions, they'd lose access.

This is true of stuff other than sports as well, of course.  And don't forget, "brought to you by Pfizer!"

Your starting quarterback disappearing after he said he no longer wanted to play for the team is a big story! 

Whether or not that story was true (and even I think it probably had a minimum of "some truth" to it), he ended up playing that week .

So ya know that inspirational Crow vs Eagle story he told on Hard Knocks? It's not even true. Crows can fly as high as eagles. Many songbirds can. 

for all of Saleh's complete BS i still think Joe is worse at his job. Saleh at least built a defense. Douglas doesn't have any feel for the OL or QB positions that's pretty bad for an NFL GM 

Also this!

A Roadrunners top speed is 26 mph while a coyotes top speed is 43 mph!

"We wanted to start 2024 with a win.   2024 is going to be special.  We're expecting to get a lot of wins in 2024.    We're not expecting to be in the same position a year from now that we're in now.  We're expecting something better.  So the message is that we're 1-0 in the year 2024 and the expectation is that we work our tails off and we work with the same deliberate mindset that we attacked last offseason with.  And when the time comes to put ourselves in position to go 2-0 we're prepared to do it."

Now, the world don't move to the beat of just one drum
What might be right for you, may not be right for some
A man is born, he's a man of means
Then along come two, they got nothing but their jeans

But they got, Diff'rent Strokes
It takes, Diff'rent Strokes
It takes, Diff'rent Strokes to move the world
It takes, Diff'rent Strokes
It takes, Diff'rent Strokes to move the world

Everybody's got a special kind of story
Everybody finds a way to shine
It don't matter that you got not alot
So what
They'll have theirs, and you'll have yours, and I'll have mine
And together we'll be fine....

Because it takes, Diff'rent Strokes to move the world
Yes it does
It takes, Diff'rent Strokes to move the world

It‘s been well over a month since the Miami game and nobody has seen nor heard from Zach Wilson, the former #2 overall pick who started for this franchise for the past three seasons and was allegedly mortally concussed in that game. The beat writers are currently publishing “Five Free Agents The Jets Should Sign” pieces and waiting for Rapoport to tweet about a potential running backs coach hiring. 

Looks like the Jets are moving on from Zach, I think it is time for you as well.

I’m sure this is a waste of words and time, but could be some interesting info. Im guessing they mention Zach Wilson zero times.

I am going to take the other side here.  Neither JD nor Saleh inspire much confidence from me, but this team did win 7 games last year with a pretty motley group of QBs.  If AR8 can play at least half the games and we can get decent back up play, I think we can sniff the playoffs.

The first step in your road to recovery is to admit you have a problem. You should think about joining Zachahol Anonymous. I can sponsor you if you would like.

That's some Grade A BS right there. The players must be about ready to tune this type of stuff out completely, if they aren't there already.

I work in corporate communications, so I am very well used to flowery gibberish disguising a lack of substance, and this is right up there with the best/worst of it.

Yeah I expect a meltdown of epic proportions when the team is 3-7. ... Salad is handing out crayons for the story wall, Hackett is exposed little more than a sycophant, again the D is given all the attention by the DC masquerading as a HC, ARod goes out multiple times due to injury because of lack of continuity behind the 'revamped' line and team is yet again staring at 7-10.

That's why Saleh is Diet Herm. All the pep talks, none of the winning.

In the alternative, the team can just hand out Zach Wilson dartboards for next year's first home game.

both JD and saleh actually mentioned Carter Warren and Max Mitchell

Carter Warren - Laken - Tippy - AVT - Max Mitchell 

yikes 

I think Carter Warren would be fine at RT next season so long as the Jets get a great LT in the the draft. I also think Laken will be cut and Jon Runyan will be at G for the Jets next season. So, Fashnau/Alt/Fuaga; Runyan; Tippmann, AVT, Warren.  I am out on Latham unless I see something at the combine to convince me he can move like you need a LT to be able to move.

Yeah, it seems so, just like last year until ARod went down after 4 plays. Until our brain trust decided making the guy we just replaced with a $100,000,000 used QB purchase would be the perfect back up in case that jalopy broke down. So, I’m sure next year will be  much much different with same guys in charge. Hope your New Year has started out exactly the way you like my friend, because once football season gets here…. Uh, yeah, it’s likely more of the same,

[Sammybighead]

When JD and Saleh say "we're scrapping our quest to search for unicorn lineman that fit our super awesome zone scheme and will focus on finding strong, tough, durable guys while switching to a gap scheme. Also, we're firing Keith Carter and bringing in someone that can actually coach" then I'll believe they're sincere about winning next year.

[Gangrene]

Ironically Aaron Rodgers Achilles issue saved their  jobs, giving them a stay of execution. They have an additional year dangling on the end of their ropes making Jets fans miserable. Leon Hess used to fire coaches too quickly now Woody takes too long.

If only b/c it gives them another year to help the OL with a first round tackle

That is a good point Tom. Quick follow up do you think the temp in Detroit got to the boys from Tampa last weekend? Bowles was dismissive when asked about how he planned to prepare for the cold weather. Said 20 seconds from the bus to the locker room was a non-issue.

Is this why they lost?
