    Pretty much this. Every coordinator calls plays that backfire. Sanchez has developed nicely. You can't ask for much more from schotty. Be patient and let Sanchez develop.

    "just because of 2-3 questionable calls tonite". Are you kidding me? He's been doing the same incompetent, no feel for the game stuff for years. Fire him. Now - or sooner, if possible.

    OK, and bring in WHO ???

    I posted before as someone who reads the papers in every NFL city: Only about 5 teams love or don't hate their OC's. None of them are available.

    So who do you guys want as the new OC ?

    I hope the curse his fater has didn't carry over to the next generation.

    Other than that, I like Schotty. I think he is a good coach.

    That said, I think when you are down 2 scores and running out of time, you let your qb call the offense.

    I'm sitting wondering why does the Jets offense always take so long to develop. We always rely on late game heroics. We are a terrible first half team.

    The VERY FIRST offensive play call of the game show it all. We got a loss of a yards, it was like a domino effect.

    I wonder is it Schotty's terrible calls? or maybe Schotty has the challenge of dealing with a young QB getting ready?

    Sanchez played a great game but I wonder if Schotty is always second guessing because he has to maneuver around Sanchez?

    Fire your OC when you improve in almost every offensive category and go to the AFC championship game....really?

    Who the hell would replace him?

    While I have a hard time defending Schotty, he isn't going anywhere. And has it crossed anyone's mind that maybe we don't come back at all without Schotty?

    because he always uses the first quarter to "feel out" the defense. Unfortunately, this is not a 12-round boxing fight and when you fall behind in the first two rounds (quarters), sometimes it might be too late to come back.

    Feeling out the defense is pretty accurate.

    I spend the early part of the game when I play Madden online doing that.

    Sometimes it comes back to bite you...especially if you get in a hole early.

    Yea we always get off to a slow start, but what is our record these past 2 years? Pretty damn good.

    With that in mind his play calling is questionable.

    It's also on Sanchez too. It's not all Schotty. It usually takes Sanchez a quarter or so to get going. People here forget that Sanchez is still a sophomore QB and it isn't easy. If the Jets had an assemblance of a D in the first half they win this game.

    I honestly don't know how much of that no 1st quarter TD's is on whom.

    Schotty is horrible. How anybody could be defending him after this game is beyond me. Where was all the "ground and pound" we heard so much about coming in to the season? Where was Shonn Greene in this game? I have no idea what that idiot is thinking, but he should have been gone a long time ago. If all you can manage is 1 yard rushing in the first half something is terribly wrong, bad D or not.

    While I agree with you almost all the time MP, I have to disagree with you here..expect the fact that yes, Sanchez does tend to get off to slow starts..and that for me is the end of Schotty as the right OC for this team.

    As an OC, its your job to help the kid get off to a faster start. All year long, watching every Jet game, it became apparent that every announcer from about week 7 or 8 on BEGGED Schotty to speed up the game...to pick up the pace. They all saw what we saw, that when crunch time came, this kid elevated his game to a huge level.

    They pleaded, like we did, to go hurry up in spots where teams usually do not. Some would think that Schotty was saving this for when it really counted..and allowed us to squeak by teams like the Lions, the Browns, the Broncos etc.

    The problem is that even in a game like this...when the team actually, shockingly, looked flat...he still refused to go hurry up. He couldn't even go hurry up when we had a PATRIOT like drive that used up the time we needed to comeback in this game. That alone should be enough for this team to go in a new direction.

    The kid was begging to be given more responsibility to win games and not manage games. He was given more tools than any Jet OC had had in decades. And if he wasn't ready, I would have been ok with throwing this season away if it meant letting this kid go wild and make mistakes..instead of treating him like the only thing that would prevent this team from winning it all.

    The only time they let this kid loose is when they had no other choice...and he came through almost every time...and would have come through again tonite if he had 2 more minutes on the clock. Instead, we had him in the huddle with 5 minutes to go. We heard the excuse of the headsets going dead...but it was ok when you needed him to call the play that beat the Colts.

    They, Rex and Schotty, took full credit for halting his bad run during the season by making him a manager of the game..when clearly this kid wanted to win games...and did..but only when Schotty had handcuffed him for 3 and a half quarters and had no choice.

    Its a disgrace to have so many play makers on one team and play a game like they did tonite and not EVEN ATTEMPT TO PUT THE STEELERS ON THEIR HEELS BY GOING HURRY UP.

    Even the announcers were fooled into thinking that the Jets would go faster in the second half and stick with it on and off the rest of the game.

    Clearly, early in the game, we saw that the Steelers secondary was committing penalties on our receivers because they couldn't keep up. And this bullshit ground and pound? Well sometimes the pass sets up the run...its common place in the NFL...EXCEPT NOBODY EVER TAUGHT SCHOTTY THAT.

    Then....we are down on the goal line and he spreads the offense and just needed to run the ball in that spread offense...and we would have scored easily...but he passes twice and then on 4th down crowds the line in such a panic mode..that everyone knew that wasn't going to cut it.

    We begged Paul Hackett to change his ways...and now we have spent 2 years asking Schotty to do the same....and its bullshit..its over.

    WTF? Which game did u watch? The Jets couldn't run the ball thats why they had 1 yard rushing in the first half. They got smothered at the LoS in the first half on run plays along with passing plays. They had to abandon the run in the second half, but seriously? What are you smoking?

    Yes. Partly.

    He's not responsible for the missed tackles, but...running misdirection for negative yardage and not being able to sustain offense does tend to keep your defense on the field.

    (How many games without a first quarter TD is it now?)

    Put Sanchez in the NE offense, and you'd never hear the phrase 'Slow Start' .

    It's not Sanchez, it's the play calling.

    This is truly groundbreaking. Anyone who knows anything about the NFL and its respective franchises knows that ownership looks to Facebook and other websites when considering the proper direction for the team. It's what we as fans say that really matters, right?

    You're an idiot. They lost because the D couldn't stop a nosebleed, not because of Schotty. You can't give up 127 yards and at least 50 of those after contact and expect to win.

    Bottom line, if the Jets could have tackled in the first half, that would have been an entirely different game.
