Why is it always so hard?

[Wit]

For decades I watch other teams score points and win games. It’s rough guys. Even if they won last week and this week, the play has not been improving. Look at ravens/bengals today and tell me we are a professional football team.

To say goodbye?

[David Harris]

The Lions are good, the Cardinals are competitive, when I was growing up the Pats were Jetsy before Brady, the Bucs were the incompetents for decades.  They get some time in the sun. It’s just different here.

 

Thank God for Cleveland

Hard to do anything without a QB. 

Unfortunately we have the one QB in history that requires at least 4 years of reps with the same players. 

Oh and hard to do anything with a predictable OC. Round and round we go.

This franchise is rudderless. It all starts with Woody and trickles down into every layer of the organization. The General Manager and Head Coach report into the owner. That's great if you're the Rooneys but doesn't work when you're the Johnsons.

It doesn't matter who the QB is. They will never win a thing with Woody running the show. Favre, Flacco, Rodgers -- bring in any Super Bowl winning QB you want and the NYJ disfunction will swallow them whole.

There is no fixing this with Woody at the top.

It's the people in charge.  They are, and have been, in over their heads.  They don't know what they're doing.

Woody needs to hire Vrabel or Jon Gruden.  Now.

1JD had an embarrassing feature where Woody had employees stand up and ring an actual physical bell 🛎️ in the office when they hooked a new season ticket subscriber.

When the owner cares about his bottom line more than winning, this is what you get.

Losing is acceptable because there are no standards that actually matter in terms of wins and losses.

As long as Woody is making money, I think he’s good with whatever.

Hahahahaha.  You cant expect to get on the same page w/ your teammates after only 1,000 offseason reps and 5 games.  This is going to take years.

It’s crazy. I watch other games and they have big runs and open receivers. We cannot even gain more than 1-2 yards on runs and most of our passes are less than 10 air yards. It’s like watching a completely different game!

The only way this gets fixed is for a James Dolan like retreat from the organization. You need a Glen Sather/Bill Parcells like figured head to take over. The personality and resumé need to be indisputable. 

Vrabel isn't that guy. Jon Gruden's comeback tour was four years of stink in Oakland and LV. 

Bill Belichick is on the market..but he would rather stick his dick in a meatgrinder than take a phone call from Woody.

[OMA]

I think bad defense and 40 yr old qb works in todays nfl. They zig we have a great fan message board. We will win in the long run.

Nothing Woody Johnson's Jets love more than One Weird Trick. Hackett + Lazard was the One Weird Trick To Lure Aaron Rodgers To Your Moribund Joke Of A Team. Rodgers was the One Weird Trick To Take Your Team From Forgettable Also-Ran To Super Bowl Contender. Smith and Moses were the One Weird Trick To Fix Your Offensive Line Woes In A Single Offseason. No doubt right now, as we speak, Florham Park is alive with high-level discussions about how Davante Adams is the One Weird Trick To Boost Your Disappointing Offense.

Buying the Jets was Woody's one weird trick to becoming a real businessman

Before I went into the game, I walked past her outside the stadium.  Only about 14 or 15 times.

Woody needs to sell. 

[WowOhWow]

What I don't understand is how in the world does this team actually attract fans (and keep them). If someone that is as die hard as me (I won't waste time explaining it but I've been around a loooooong time) is at the point where I literally just can't take it anymore...how does anyone jump on this ship?

This team hasn't been good in ~15 years. Guys...that's a prison sentence.

Aren't you supposed to consult your doctor after like five hours?

Run the ball on 1st, quick hitter on 2nd, sideline pass on 3rd, REPEAT.

[DoubleDown]

It's not rocket science.

The coaching stinks, and the talent is overrated.

it seems like the nfl is like the nba where the score is tight and the team with the ball last puts up the winning points.  and this somehow negates all of the garbage playing of the previous 55 minutes or so.  i can't remember when the jets actually drove for a touch down with time running out.  they came close with the fg against the broncos and pulled out a fg against the titans but usually it's them ending up with the defense on the field and trying to stop a score.

Woody is fixated on getting a 10% private equity stake that will pay him 85 million.   He's not even thinking about the play on the field.

I thought they drafted Corley to get easy yards.  Instead they deactivate him and use Lazard who can’t catch.  I really don’t trust the coaches when they say a guy isn’t ready.  Corley would be very useful for a team that can’t generate first downs.
