If you don't think a new GM and new coach with a new staff teaching a new system to a team with a transitional QB at best is rebuilding then I dunno... like I said, you're in for a long year. And the last person to blame for it is Aaron Glenn.
They decided to put themselves in that position. If they are getting rid of Rodgers it's to raise the ceiling with the next QB. It's not a rebuild. People are already making excuses for why Glenn will suck.
I think anyone who can look at this roster and situation objectively doesn't really need to make excuses for why we won't win many games this year and knows that it has not much to do with Aaron Glenn at all.
This team won 5 games and was in position to win many more despite the worst coaching staff in NFL history. Any competent head coach can win 10 games with these players. If Glenn is not capable then this was a huge mistake hiring him.
"These players" is not a valid qualifier here because you're going to have a different QB and a completely new system. That doesn't even take into account losing Davante or the guys on defense that will inevitably walk like Reed, hopefully not Sherwood.
This should be the goal. Getting rid of Rodgers to me does not give you a an excuse to continue losing. I understand the decision to move on from declining 42 year older QB, but we still need to get a solid QB option in 2025 and do everything we can to find a more permanent QB option in the process.
Why are we pretending this is a straight up swap, Rodgers for another QB? First off, that QB won't give us the play Rodgers did over the last half of the season (16 TD, 4 INT, 2000 yds, 64% completion) and second, there is WAY WAY more at play than just this. It's nowhere near as black and white as some of you want to think it is. Like I said, some of you are in for a looong year and then you're going to be confused when you're the only ones calling for Aaron Glenn's head.
that’s incorrect. Teams rebuild with talent all the time. You just have some guys in place to build around. Parcells did that here- rebuilding around guys like Aaron Glenn, Victor Green, Mo Lewis, Keyshawn, Chrebet, etc. he got rid of his own diva QB too with Neil O’Donnell
Bet on whether or not the Jets' QB next season is statistically better or statistically worse than Rodgers was this year.
I don't know why people think we're gonna be able to pluck a guy out of thin air that can give us 28 TD, 11 INT, 3800 yards on 63% completion. Anyone putting up numbers like that already start on another team.
The Jets have pretty much always had talented players during rebuilds, just not where it matters most.
Why not? One of these picks was Jameson Williams and they gave up a lot to move up for him. Another was Gibbs, but they could have moved up from the original draft spot they had (picked Jack Campbell ) to get him, like they did for Jameson or instead of that. Essentially they could have had all the same players but no Jameson and Campbell, but Stafford instead of Goff.
By not bringing back Aaron Rodgers that's the perception people have rightfully so I think. As the saying goes perception is reality.
Yeah, it's weird. I started a thread first about Rodgers exit, and then yankees6 started one. I asked for a merge to keep things clean, got an annihilation. All I meant was merging those two threads only.
The Jets don't value TIME their own or their fans or it would be better said Woody doesn't. They're a lost dysfunctional organization. Only God knows when this playoff drought will end. For now I don't see a end in sight.
Won't be anytime soon, that's for sure. I don't even want to think about who will be lining up at QB in Week 3 after Tyrod Taylor has suffered yet another injury.
