    This is on Woody, he's being cheap thus Tanny can't really make moves to drastically improve the team.

    After all arguing about QB, RB, WR, OL, LB, DL, S, CB, etc the majority says the main reason is Tanny. Gives me hope

    I blame Namath for selling his soul in exchange for that Super Bowl.

    The curse ends when he dies. Simple as that.

    You get a rid of Tanny and Jets will still have fundamental problems because of the culture Rex Ryan establishes.

    There's a freaking salary cap and the Jets seemingly are always in danger of going over it, so, how the hell can you accuse Woody of being cheap?

    Put the load right on me, la la la. I'm bad luck. Had I not become a Jets fan the Jets would be fine.

    good teams spend money because even if you go over the luxary tax, you're going to get a return due to revenue. the reason woody is being cheap is because his psl's aren't doing as well as he anticipated.

    Tannenbaum, Ryan, and Sanchez all need to go. Clean house from the top down.

    there is no luxury tax. there is a hard cap. you can not go over. if you do you are penalized by draft picks and/or fines and contracts are voided until you are back under the cap. this isn't like the nba or mlb.

    Tanny can't make moves because of the cap and this team has nothing anyone wants. Which is his mess. The math guy has somehow messed up the math in his job.

    If you want to blame Woody, blame it on him caring more about revenue then performance.

    Sanchez Has really shit the bed several times already and last week they had article basically making fun of Sanchez ; who held the ball for an eternity all the while Steven Hill is still open to this day. If you have to be pragmatic about the situation then Collectively this entire team has either Failed to execute ,stay health or Be utilized properly to make a difference.

    I gotta say Rex. Most of the time, it starts and ends with the HC.

    Leon Hess' bio in the Jets media guide always began with "It all starts at the top". Very true. Blame Woody Johnson.

    Yep. As I understand it, severe penalties for going over the cap (not just fines), and there's actually minimum spending requirement for player salaries, not that it matters to us because we are always near the other end of the spectrum.

    I don't see how he's bottom of the league in pressured throws, when he was the most blitzed QB in the NFL coming into the Rams game.

    So far we have Tanny in first with 49% of the vote,

    2. Rex Ryan at 16%
    3. Woody Johnson at 14%
    4. Sanchez at 12%
    5. Sparano at 8%

    Not bad at all. I was really expecting Sanchez to be #1 or 2 at worst with the hate he gets on here.

    :lol: Explain Eli's recent slump and why you should stick with him rather than play your backup QB? It wouldn't have anything to do with past success now would it? Giants fans are the worst. I couldn't imagine actually signing up for a Giants forum just to lurk in the background and post the occasional 'Giants suck' statement. It's one thing to have a rational discussion, but that's a load of crap.
