It's even worse than lack of experience - we repeatedly hire coaches who are proven failures. Gase, Keith Carter, Hackett, Glenn, Wilks - none of these guys did their jobs well prior to landing with us. Wilks was one and done with his last three teams ffs lol, and he's trending towards one and done with us. It's such a clear pattern of repeated failure but Glenn thought Wilks' 12 games of interim HC experience superseded that? What are we doing here?
the problem is you cannot build a team then hope to get a franchise QB as the Jets haven't managed to find one in the last 50 years - if you build a core of good young talent they will all be retired by the time the Jets land a QB (and so will any children they might have that enter the league).
what that mainly tells me is that the Jets are terrible at evaluating QB talent (though to be fair it is notoriously hard - could just be that the Jets are a cursed franchise and doomed never to get it right)
Over the past 20 years, we have not demonstrated that very fact. We have blamed the leadership, the GMs, the CSs, the players and eternally the ownership, but the more we change, the more we digress. Denver is quickly getting back to winning shape, so is SD, and soon NE, as is Jacksonville, but the Jets, and the Browns, seem to linger in the the cellar for ever…no matter what, even though they have drafted higher in the first than the rest for ever.
because neither team has had a franchise QB in decades - they just never seem to get it right (or if they do they totally botch it like the Browns with Mayfield)
I wouldn't describe him as a franchise QB - clearly he looks better than what has come after him but that isn't exactly hard.
Darnold looks really good this year and he looked really good last year. We all have our definitions of franchise QB and it often moves to suit the point you wanna make. But Darnold is 17-5 the last 2 seasons as a starter, I think is okay to say he's a franchise QB and the Jets botched it
