I'd say 3-3 or 4-2. You never know when Favre was going to shit the bed like Sanchez just did, last year we couldn't beat New England at home with Favre and they didn't have Brady. Like you said, the NO and Miami games are probably losses regardless, we certainly didn't lose the Miami game because of QB play. Favre also might not have been ready or sharp for Week 1 coming off of surgery, another off season of drama and a short camp. All just guessing at hypotheticals, of course.
well seeing as brett favre was on last years team. this question is stupid. what if we had the perfect draft every year?
ahhh you caught me after my edit.....I stand by both of em. im not a vikings fan so this is pointless. its basically saying what if sanchez didnt throw 5 INT's. this thread wouldnt exist.
I agree but this thread was bound to happen at some point during the season. Might as well get it out of the way now.
He would be inactive... Jets don't draft sanchez in April, instead they pick Harvin. so it's Brett ratliff to cotchery stuckey Harvin and Keller. Everyone is calling for clowney bc god damn it,that combo looked sweet during the preseason. We would be 2-4 and Harvin would already be in trouble for smoking pot. Also, pettine and schotty ostracize Rex and assume dual HC responsibilities.
So coaches,even though they are calling the plays force a player to make a bad decision? The player makes the decisions on the field not the coaches. Favre throwing picks or even Sanchez for that matter is not the coaches fault. How can you say it is the coaches fault? They don't cause a player to fumble so how could they cause a QB to throw a pick? The QB makes his own decision during the play. If it is not there they can throw it away, take a sack or run with the ball. :jets:
Good coaches put their players in positions to make good plays more often than not. If it was just a matter of calling any play and leaving it up to the players to execute there would be no such thing as a good or bad coach.
I kind of don't think Favre, not being fully up to speed with the offense, was listening to a lot of coaching. The whole point of getting him was letting him go to work the way he could do it, the coaches had to let him roll with that for better or worse. They all pretty much said flat out that was the case the whole season, the coaches said it and Favre said it. If we're going to pat him on the back for the six TD game, he has to be held accountable for the meltdown at the end of the year.
They wouldn't be any better because it was clear Favre didn't want to be here. Look at how he manipulated his way into playing in Minnesota. The guy is a dueche and karma is gonna catch up with him and the Vikes the same way it caught up with the Pats. His heart was never into playing with the Jets so even if he was here it wouldn't make a difference.
They would be on my TV a lot more. I had the ticket last year to watch the Jets games. He was on my network TV 8 times. Talk about a waste of money.
we would probably be 6-0 no way we lose to bills or saints and with him i think we could of beaten dolphins. We would be feeling great at 6-0 with our hopes high only once again to crash at the end of the season and read about jets fans commiting suicide.
you are not understanding. on the field it is the players who make the decisions. if they have been coached well they tend to make the correct decision more often than not. even the best coach needs some good players to succeed, but you can have a team with all the talent in the world and without a good coach the team won't go anywhere. to better illustrate what i am saying i will ask this question. do the steelers win the superbowl last year if mangini is their coach? i would say that they would not, because play calling and game preparation would have been totally different and IMO much worse with mangini as coach.
I see what you are getting at. A good coach will work with his players during the week so they can make better decisions during the game. Lets hope that the Jets CS did just that this week and they avoid all the mistakes today. To answer your question no the steelers would not have won the SB with mangini at the helm. Go Jets! Go Jets CS! Just beat the raiders baby.
I'm not sure why everyone is hating on the OP. It's a question that can be debated, and is thus an appropriate question for a forum. Just because it strikes a bad chord with many of us, doesn't mean the OP should get slaughtered for posting it. With that said, I think the Jets would be 4-2. I think the Buffalo game would not have been lost, we would have still lost to the Saints, and we would have lost to either the Dolphins or Patriots.
