I am very happy to hear that overwhelmingly people want him to be fired. Just an embarrassment that they do not need right now. Talking loud is fine when you back it up with good, hard hitting, clean football.

We don't need the Jets to become the Oakland Raiders from back in the day.

He should be fired but I'm not gonna allow Jacksonville idiots moralize with me over this.

This is a group of fans happy as pigs in sh*t over their mediocre football team which is never going anywhere, except maybe L.A.

I dont know how you can insult the Jags...they are probably going to win the division and at least there team gives their homes fans something to cheer about.

They are the best story nobody is talking about in the NFL.

Anywho, it wasnt a Jags fan that said that to me

Dude, Indy is going to crush the Jags on Sunday. They're a story no one needs to talk about.

You think the Jets are in bad shape? The Jags are gonna win 9 games, miss the playoffs and be stuck with DelRio and Garrard for another year of mediocrity. Right now, the Jags are the Pennington/Herm era Jets.

Don't know if this has been discussed yet, but after looking at the picture I think the decision to trip up the gunner came from above. Look where all those trainers are standing, toe-ing the line. The Miami gunners were running up outside the sideline all game. I wouldn't be the least bit surprised if that was Rex's or Westhoff's decision.

They beat Indy. Book it.

I voted on a conditional no. I think it depends on the guy's track record in the organization, whether or not this was an isolated incident...etc. At the very least he should be suspended and fined. I do think everyone messes up now and then, especially in the heat of the moment, and he also issued an immediate apology and took full accountability, which counts for something.

In general, I think you're completely right.

Unfortunately, this was on CBS for the nation to see. It's one thing to **** up at your job, it's another to do it on television, to the point where they're zooming in on your knee and slowing the frame rate.

Have to make an example of him. Just the way it is.

yes ! send a message to the team, the dolphins and the NFL that this type of BS is not tolerated withing the NYJ

he should be gone today

I was always honest to a fault in my playing days, I'd put my hand up after comitting a foul even before the ref called my number, and honor means something to me. he dishonored the team, he must fall on the sword

I agree to an extent, but I do think accountability and the actual consequences have to be figured in somehow. The guy admitted he was completely wrong and apologized to everyone as soon as the game was over. And though someone could have been hurt, nobody was. I'm not saying he should definitely keep his job, I have no clue what his history is like with Rex and the rest of the organization, but if the guy has a clean track record thus far and some tenure with the team, I wouldn't be appalled if Rex went to bat for one his guys for making a mistake even in the face of a public outcry.

I understand it may be necessary, but still.

I voted no because the play happened so fast and there was little preemptive thought involved as far as I can tell. People can do some stupid things in the heat of the moment. That said, there is complete justification for letting him go. That was a dbag move and had the situation been reversed and a Jets player was seriously injured on the play, we'd all be calling for that guy's head.

the trip is the lead story on ESPN's NFL page

this might be the lowest I've felt about this team in decades

:(

My link

the national poll has;

fire him at 47%

suspend him 40%

accept apology 11%

this is just piling on

"The Jets' old kicker, Jay Feely, scored more touchdowns Sunday than they have the past two weeks"

Oh boy...here we go...

"He's just taking after the head coach, man. It all trickles downhill," inside linebacker Karlos Dansby said. "That's how I look at it, it trickles downhill. The head coach, he opened a can of worms over there and now he's got to fix it."

he should be fired. you can see this was planned after the first couple of times this rookie ran down the sidelines out of bounds on punt coverages. The rookie was flagged for this once already. You can see that a bunch of the practice squad players were lined up next to sal on the sideline forming a makeshift wall and tough guy sal was on the edge. I can just see tough guy yelling at them to get in line and I will be in the front. Dont let this guy by if he comes down the line. He is lucky this kid wasnt seriously injured...

Incarcerated bob just called into francessa and said 2 jets confirmed that Rex and westhoff told the coaches to get up that close cuz they were pissed that the dolphins kept running so far out of bounds? Bobs record is suspect but this would be pretty huge, what do you guys think?

Meh, not against the rules. Doubt Rex of all people would be issuing out sweep-the-leg orders even if he told them to inch up.

This. I think Sal was on his own with what he pulled, but I've been under the assumption since yesterday those guys were explicitly told to stand there. There were five guys standing in a row all on top of the sideline, that's no coincidence. The Dolphins gunners had been running down the field out of bounds the entire game, they were flagged for it once, and that was once again the case on the play in question. I have no doubt Westhoff got pissed off and intentionally had guys in their way.

Boy, regardless of what happened, give the guy a ton of credit. He's definitely taking his medicine in this PC and manning up to what he did. Takes a lot of courage to do what he's doing right now.

do you think he is taking a bullet for rex and the hoff ?
