    I was starting to think they would never fire GM Mike MacIdiot. Happy to be wrong.

    I thought Crowder was a waste of money and I thought Osemele would be a Pro Bowler.

    I thought Kalil would be average at worst. He just wanted one last payday. He was totally shot and incapable of playing.

    I expected a somewhat competent o-line. Was another turnstile.

    Did not think Adams would be as good as he was in 2019. Adams I thought would be a good to sometimes very good player who is not quite elite and a game changer. He proved to be a game changer at times this year. Good to see

    Expected better from Marcus Maye. He did have a solid Steelers game late in the season though. He can still be decent. But I still wouldn't have spent a 2nd rounder on him when we just took Adams. Would definitely go offense there

    Definitely though Powell and Montgomery would have a greater role in this offense.

    Crowder I thought would be the beast that he was. Great signing. Next year should be another 70-80 catch and 800-900 yard season.

    Thought this was the year Herndon would be mentioned among the top tight ends in the NFL. Was a total lost season for him.

    I did vote in it. I was robbed! j/k. I don't there was a money thing in that one. I'm not the only one who voted that way.

    I thought Osemele would improve our Oline.

    I thought the Trumaine Johnson signing couldn't possibly be as bad as it looked in 2018.

    I thought our offensive line would merely be a critical weak point on the team. What I never imagined was that it would be among the worst ever assembled in the history of organized football for a full half season.

    I also thought Trumaine Johnson would rally back being reunited with Williams. heh... that didn't exactly happen.

    I was wrong being worried about the Pats going 19-0 after their dominant first two months lol

    Title doesn't specify only Jet-related mea culpas :p

    Where was I wrong?

    I was wrong for thinking that Gase maybe could actually improve Darnold and get us into the playoffs.
    I was wrong for having a slight bit of hope that this could be a good season.
    I was wrong for going to take a piss at halftime of the season opener and treating myself to a Mrs. Fields cookie and thinking that it was a great start to the season and maybe another score and we were 1-0 against "Josh Allen and the Bills"
    I was wrong for thinking that Trevor Siemien could somehow beat the Browns.

    I thought the OL would be better which would in turn lead to Sam (and the offense) having a better season.

    1. Thought team would make playoffs.
    2. Thought Darnold would perform better than he did.
    3. Thought Bell would be more productive.
    4. Thought Bell would be a negative off field distraction.

    1. Offensive line would be much improved.
    2. Darnold would take a giant leap w/Gase being an offensive “guru”.
    3. Bell had a lot left in the tank.
    4. CB would be a giant problem this year.

    I really thought Montgomery and Bell would both play a huge role in the passing game. Thought we'd see a lot of two back sets with them; once the threat of them as pass catchers was enough for the defense to replace a LB with a CB, then start running the ball with Bell. Keeping teams off balance like that would've helped mitigate the poor play of our OL.

    I also thought our lack of CBs would be the downfall of our defense, but Williams really got a lot out of the guys he had on defense.

    I thought the Kalil signing would be very positive - wrong. Also thought Gase would figure out how to make Bell a viable weapon running the ball and out of the back field - wrong...

    Darnold would throw 30 TDs.

    I thought Darnold would put up better numbers, but I also thought the offensive line would be way better.
