Again, let me be clear. I don't think Saleh is a good coach but it's very tough to win in this league without good QB play. The one thing Zach and Rodgers have in common is with Saleh as the HC no coaching or accountability. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well he's part of the 'new thinking' regime. He sees anger as a waste of energy. There is a lot to be said for being able to control your temper ... But actions need to be targeted and improvements need to occur. He's in over his head. Period. End of story.... @THomShane's record prediction seems very possible to me at this point.

TuscanyTile2 Posted 4 hours ago Share Posted 4 hours ago Everything with Saleh is there to get you to avoid looking at what he's done. We're 2-3 when we should be 4-1 but he tells us that it was the "nothing part of football" and that only the upcoming games matter. He's such an obvious fraud. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed and also think about how adults talk about their parents: Does anyone brag about how their parents “let me do whatever I wanted” or do they brag that “my parents could be tough, maybe gave me a swat when I needed it, but they taught me right.” 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rangerous Posted 3 hours ago Share Posted 3 hours ago To be honest the first few games are iffy. It takes time for teams to come together. The oline and offense has over 50% new players. The oline has three new players and one coming off a missed season. So there is some truth in what Bobby says. But at the same time he doesn’t seem to be watching the same game as everyone else. The offense can’t run or pass block effectively. And the play calling has been timid because of this. ( maybe Hackett knows his teams limitations right now). Bobby knows, or should know, they need to win winnable games and they just dropped two. And now they head into a faltering Buffalo team which is still very good and does get ready for game day.

We should be 4-1 but instead we're 2-3. Saleh needs to be fired immediately. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jets under Saleh have collapsed down the stretch; terrible December/January record. Big picture; at a loss how if things go sideways at home vs. Buffalo he keeps his job. Johnsons are imbeciles, but this is very much a win now season with a 40 year old QB who isn't getting any younger. You aren't selling hope for the future, you're selling RIGHT NOW. May be you can patch some things together, spackle here, paint there, and salvage a wild card if you change some variables. But you can't let Baltusrol Bob fumble away another season. And right now that's the trajectory. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TuscanyTile2 Posted 2 hours ago Share Posted 2 hours ago Adam Gase was nuts but I fully believe he threw himself into this job and cared about winning. Robert Saleh has a country club attitude and is quite possibly the least media-savvy coach that has ever existed. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TuscanyTile2 Posted 2 hours ago Share Posted 2 hours ago As embarrassing as it would be for a HC to say this, I think I'd prefer Saleh to say "I'm just here so I don't get fined" as his response to every question he gets in a press conference from now on. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GenoJet Posted 1 hour ago Share Posted 1 hour ago I'm curious about how many times this team, under Saleh, has went into halftime with a lead. His teams are always flat during the 1st half in games. How can anyone justify keeping him as our HC. I think he's awful. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
