    Jets aren't tanking; they legitimately suck. At least they'll get another high pick to screw up.

    I didn't, but I didn't think we were this bad either. If we go 2-15, do you think Douglas and Saleh will be back next year?

    I'm not saying a good GM would turn the Jets into a playoff team in two years. By turn around, I just mean the Jets should be better than they were and not arguably the worst team in the league after two years.

    Yes, because that's how rebuilding seasons work. Jets fans are the real reason why this team hasn't been rebuilt.

    This needs an explanation.

    If Lincoln Riley wants to come here with his dumb visor and potentially take Rattler at #1, do you shift and make it happen?

    Similar to Arizona and Murray.

    Boomer Esiason explained it to the Post weeks ago while explaining how he drove Frank Reich away from this job. The ownership listens to the fans. The vocal majority, anyway.

    The interesting thing is that makes this year an aberration. So either the Johnsons were able to change it this is a short-lived experiment that will get blown up halfway through next season because the Johnsons are still listening to the fans.

    You don't truly believe that any football related decisions are based on their acceptability to the great unwashed out here rather than on field abilities, do you?

    I certainly do. That's how out-of-their-depth these guys strike me. I think that the decision to start a rookie without question was at least partially decided by social media before he was even drafted.

    Then again that's just my opinion.

    Are you on your way to the airport this morning then, to hook up the banner?

    That would require much more interest and investment than I am able to muster for a corporation that doesn't really know I exist.

    Why bother to Post on this thread?

    Good chance all of you will be back here next year

    Tired of putting in the energy

    Fields and Jones have half a chance of making it one day imo...Urban Meyer will prob return to College

    I at least expected competence. 0-3 isn't the problem, it's how awful everything has been with the exception of the 2nd half of the Carolina game.

    would be interested to see what the stats were for the top 4 rookies drafted in Darnold's intake (Mayfield, Darnold, Allen and Rosen) and see if they were materially better or worse at this point - as those stats seem really bad (and Mac Jones' only look relatively good as he is just dinking and dunking down the field)

    Not impressed with Rattler at all, his play has been erratic over the last 2 years.
