    So many things to hate about this franchise, but what's the worst? Sadly I could only have 10 choices or so in the poll or I could've added another dozen or so options.

    The losing.
    The fan base.

    Edit: Ok not the fan base. Given enough time most people will crack under torture.

    I think the fan base would be great if it ever had anything to feel good about (on a reasonably consistent basis)

    For total pain over my lifetime, inability to get off the field on third down is hard to argue with.

    You ask for the worst and then allow multiple votes?

    QB for me.

    This year I would say the most dislikable thing about them is the "swagger" they got from a few fortunate wins against teams playing their backup QBs-- a swagger which has continued with "tough talk" and feigned confidence through a 0-4 December and a 1-5 record since the bye week. What a bunch of phonies. Last night's listless performance was just the icing on the cake.
    I hope the rookies are pissed and can change the culture here, but they have a tough task ahead of them.

    All of it stems from the ownership so by definition that has to be the worst thing.

    The ownership ... because it does the most damage.

    The uniforms ... because it is the easiest thing to fix.

    The consistent inability to draft and develop their picks.
    I mean, who have we actually developed?
    The ones we do leave because the culture is shit.
    It’s astonishing how many high draft picks we had that are out if the league


    So this really comes down to culture and ownership

    it's very hard to think of many jets in recent times that have outperformed their draft spot (and most have woefully underperformed - or looked good for a while before moving on into obscurity for the most part - guys like Wilkerson, Richardson, Williams - all were supposed to be the next big thing on the D-line)

    Probably, but we don’t. That gets you a bitter, desperate, exhausted, and incapable of “acting like you’ve been there” group of angry people who all just happen to be angry at the same thing.

    For me it's all of the offensive scenarios. Most of them resulting from failing to find a franchise QB.....
