I've defended Gase a lot. He ended up doing a good job last year despite the disastrous start. I agree it's too early. He ends up having the same problems as we saw with both the end of Rex's tenure and Bowles. Some games are just lost at kickoff because the guys don't look ready or interested in playing. It's frustrating because I see a team like the Bills who are well coached and always show the fuck up. They might lose but they don't give up 3rd and 10 scrambles when they have the QB dead in the water like we did to Allen. That play was disgusting to me. Completely gave up when they "figured" he'd run out of bounds short of the marker and he got it. If we come out with another 3-4 piss poor fucking efforts then I hope everything's on the table in terms of firing.
The issue with Gase was simple, he was just fired from Miami for sucking as a HC and the Jets were influenced to hire him by a call from Manning. There was no other reason why the jets hired him, he did nothing offensively to show he was the right coach. Fans are now stuck with another losing season because the Johnsons won’t fire him mid season.
I don't have a specific person but I strongly recommend not picking a newly fired coach of another team.
Hopefully, someone who can run a tougher training camp than Gase. Two receivers out the entire training camp and the #1 RB injured first game.
The Johnson's are going to fire him at the end of October if we have 1 win. Christopher Johnson's comments in Miami indicated to me that he's not going to mess around forever. Gase wasn't the best choice. But I think his season was incomplete last year due to the offensive line disaster. He has a lot less excuses this year. The line is much better - the receivers are equal. None of that matters though. The team looked disinterested in playing today. They fought in the second half a tiny bit. But there was no effort at all. Absolutely inexcusable and completely on the head coach. Reminded me of the first quarter of the Steelers AFC Championship Game.
I think they have a great HC/GM combo. They've built around Allen while we started the process a year later. We must upgrade the skill position group next offseason or we'll be back to square one shortly.
We do need to give the season more time but let's be honest, it's not going to get much better. We may have a few highlights (ok, very few) along the way. However the team looks like total ass overall. It always starts at the top. Gase and the entire staff need to go. The Jets will never learn but I'll say it again anyways. Clean house completely minus Douglas and let him pick his guy. That's the only way we'll ever have a chance at getting this thing on solid footing. Otherwise the franchise is in Circle Circus mode and the shit show will just keep spinning perpetually.
They do. McDermott looks like he'll bang his bare head into a locker to get his team fired up if they feel flat too. The Bills have built their structure well and they're flat out a better team. I was hoping Darnold was going to flash his Favre-like ability and wizard his way through their defense but the early three and outs crushed us. Gase needs to get Darnold into early rhythms. Get him easy completions and he'll get going. He struggles to start games and I'm not sure why.
I wonder if McCarthy would've gotten the job if it wasn't for that phone call. He seemed to be where Reid was in 2013, a largely successful run with a team, but needed a change of scenery after things came crashing down.
No the mistake was in not firing Mac soon enough. It makes no sense to continue trying to run a straight line the wrong direction. Gase is way over his head as an HC. I think Bielemy/Riley would be good choices who could get the most out of Darnold.
If you think the diff in the Jets being good is resigning two guys one who was overpaid based on his stats and talent Robby and another who wanted to be paid 18m and locker room cancer was gonna make the Jets any better im glad Mac is gone. He prob would of handed Adams 24m and 190m gtd. Those picks will help with speeding up the rebuild with a GM i trust far better than anything we have had recently. In the trenches and skill positions Jamal Adams wasnt going to move the organizational chains for us.
I was all for giving the guy a chance, but I’m not seeing anything that indicates that he’s the answer. Ditto for Sam, though I really believe he was dealt a terrible hand in coming to the Jets. Anyone who comes to the Jets is dealt a terrible hand.
Literally anyone else is my vote at the moment - someone working in marketing or in the catering team? give them a go maybe
It would be so Jets like if Sam bolts after his rookie contract ends and becomes a stud for another team.
