The Never-Ending Cycle of Disappointment
The New York Jets have once again fallen into their familiar pattern of hiring a first-time head coach with a defensive coordinator background. Robert Saleh, Todd Bowles, Al Groh, Herman Edwards, and Eric Mangini – the list goes on. Each time, the outcome is the same: failure. It’s a vicious cycle that has left fans feeling frustrated and helpless.
A Franchise in Shambles
The Jets’ organization is in dire need of a complete overhaul. Instead of trying to patch up the existing structure, they should consider tearing it down to the foundation and starting from scratch. Unfortunately, that’s not the approach they’ll take. They’ll attempt to cobble together a team that’s just good enough to avoid a top draft pick but not good enough to be truly competitive.
The Aaron Rodgers Conundrum
Aaron Rodgers is no longer the quarterback he once was. It’s baffling that the Jets would even consider bringing him on board. Hubbs warned us about his decline three seasons ago, and yet, here we are. What do they expect from him at this point? It’s a move that defies logic.
A Missed Opportunity
I had high hopes for Brian Flores as the next head coach. He would have brought a much-needed winning environment to the team and created some distance between Woody Johnson’s meddling and the players. But, of course, that’s exactly why he wouldn’t get hired. The Jets’ modus operandi is to do the opposite of what makes sense.
The GM Conundrum
It’s mind-boggling that the Jets would hire a head coach before a general manager. Why make the situation more difficult for the new coach? It’s not like they just started looking for a GM; they fired Joe Douglas before the season ended. Woody Johnson’s decision to hire Mike Tenenbaum’s firm to aid in the hiring process only to settle on the most predictable choice is a perfect example of the team’s ineptitude.
Losing Faith
It’s getting increasingly difficult to care about this team. They continue to make the same mistakes year after year, and it’s exhausting. At some point, it’s on us, the fans, for getting upset about the same issues repeatedly. The Jets need a drastic change, but it seems unlikely that will happen anytime soon.
