BP Posted December 24, 2008 Share Posted December 24, 2008 Even if the Jets make it to the playoffs, we will be exiting quickly. It's a lose lose scenario. Mangini is coaching for his job this Sunday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4HCrew Posted December 24, 2008 Share Posted December 24, 2008 I wonder if he has a pulse of the locker room... to me Mangini lost the team last week Pete Carroll style Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NIGHT STALKER Posted December 24, 2008 Share Posted December 24, 2008 This is Custer's last stand and we all know how that turned out...it wasn't pretty. The odd thing is, if Ellis doesn't make that lucky play against the Bills a couple of weeks ago, Custer would already have been killed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4HCrew Posted December 24, 2008 Share Posted December 24, 2008 can you imagine the noise if the Jets go three and out in the first drive lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BP Posted December 24, 2008 Share Posted December 24, 2008 The Jets offense and defense still haven't made any adjustments since the Denver game. that is just awful coaching and incompetence, and I don't expect anything different this week. What is shocking is how different Mangini is coaching now that he has talent. he was a much better coach in 2006 when the Jets had no running backs.

Irish Jet Posted December 24, 2008 Share Posted December 24, 2008 Even if the Jets make it to the playoffs, we will be exiting quickly. It's a lose lose scenario. Mangini is coaching for his job this Sunday. That's what annoys me. It makes it almost hard to root for this team because we are in such a bad way right now. What would getting to the playoffs really accomplish? I know what it would cost us - A second round pick and probably a new coach. It tough to see any positive from winning but I always believe that if you can somehow make the playoffs then you have a chance. Who knows? Maybe we could hit a good streak. Possible but not very probable I know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jet Moses Posted December 24, 2008 Share Posted December 24, 2008 Where was this "fight" against Denver? The Niners? The Bills? Seattle? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kelticwizard Posted December 24, 2008 Share Posted December 24, 2008 It's a simple concept, really. I am a fan of the New York Jets. That is defined as a person who cheers for the New York Jets to win when they play football. A person who is not a fan of the New York Jets is defined as a person who does not cheer for the New York Jets to win when they play football. Yes, I've heard the arguments about how it's in the "long range interest" for the Jets to lose on Sunday and seal Mangini's fate, but that way lies madness. If you want to take the "long range interest" theory to it's logical conclusion, you would cheer for the Jets to lose every game through 2018 so that our team will have 10 first picks in the draft playing for it, thereby greatly increasing our chances of winning a Super Bowl in 2019. Thank you, no. I'll cheer for the Jets to win every game they play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
indygirl4jets Posted December 24, 2008 Share Posted December 24, 2008 The fans will get ugly on Sunday if the Jets fall behind early. I hate to hear a fan say they will boo their own team. If you recall, for the longest time, the Colts used to suck bad. They let us down all the time too but never once did I attend a game and hear the fans boo the team. Maybe its hoosier hospitality, I dont know but please dont boo the team. Fan support means a lot to a team. I still have hope for the Jets, you just never know what can happen.

JetsTitans63 Posted December 24, 2008 Share Posted December 24, 2008 I will be cheering for my team to win on Sunday regardless what happens with the other games. If in fact they decide to not show up again and lose. I would hope a press conference follows the loss with Tanne and Woody anouncing the firing of Mangini.Schottenheimer and Sutton and then wish us a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year and apologize for what transpired this season.

CTM Posted December 24, 2008 Share Posted December 24, 2008 Good analogy about hanging onto a cliff hoping for help. Unfortunately, from what we've seen the last month I find it hard to believe that this team will do anything but let go. Whatever happenned to bringing in boxing people for motivational speechs, showing big boxing matches the night before the game? Why doesn't he do anything like that anymore?

We boo for what we consider inferior performance and or players not hustling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
