Jets Suck -- 2016 Edition (Official): Futility Confirmed

Some serious Jet Fan on Jet Fan Violence: Joe Benigno and Evan Roberts

Ha, could only listen to the first minute or so until my blood pressure started rising and I had to cut it off. Following politics is aggregating enough for me. Sports radio makes me wanna bash head against the desk.

He's not wrong about Bowles being a failure this season though. He's been horrible. Macc too somewhat. Re-signing Fitz and continuing to play him beyond week 3 were the biggest screw-ups, but it all waterfalled and Bowles lost the entire team.

It sucks breaking in a new coach. Hell, even the great Belichick wasn't very good at first. Problem is deciding how long to deal with the growing pains while the newbs learn. I suppose if you go with a rookie coach vs some big name veteran coach, gotta expect it.

Hopefully he's better in his 3rd season. Otherwise kick him to the curb.

One thing in his favor is odds are the team will get better next season so long as he doesn't lose the locker room again.

Say want ya will about the Jets, skill/player wise, they're not amongst the worst in the league (excluding Fitz). If Bowles can even be competent next season, the team should at least be playing meaningful games in December, and that will probably give him a 4th year in 2018.

Sorry to say, man but once a coach loses the locker room....its gone.

I'd tend to agree with you. Hope I'm wrong.

OMG OMG OMG

This is a truly humbling experience. To be ranked above Ed and Captain Jet is a tremendous honor.

There are plenty to thank (family, friends and Jets of course) but to keep things short and sweet, I'd just like to thank those directly responsible for this performance.

@Joker and @Tunescribe ... You guys deserve this just as much as me. Couldn't have done it without you.

Just like Halle had to sleep with an old white dude to get her award, I had you two. You both are my Billy Bobs!

A desperate sadness underlies most of your posts that stilted attempts at humor just can't hide. For your own well-being you might consider following the lead of fellow Jersey fans and schedule a few sessions with Dr. Jay P. Granat. He just might be your last, best hope.

Hey Rat fan...you're no Halle Berry....Hairy Belly maybe...Sewerman Stan?

You know Benigno rips the hell out of the Jets in that clip but the difference between him and a Felger is that Joe is a lifelong Jet fan as opposed to a cheesehead import making clickbait statements.

That's the kind of radio we need around here. True knowledgable Pat fans discussing this team and not a bunch of "I can't wait to be syndicated" contrarian clickbait artists.

How many other teams are you comparing them to?

Better be much less than the fingers on one hand.

Not the Browns, Rams or the Jaguars. Each of those have young talent across the board and need a HC/GM to right the ship. The Jets are in shambles. QB? HC? Aging veterans? Owner? GM? Wow what a mess. They might be better off than the 49ers but I'd call that a draw.

Too bad the NFL doesn't have a relegation system in place. LMAO.

And as the Jets, their season and fans fade into the distance, so we should end this edition of this thread until such time as they once again become relevant to our existence. We have much better uses for our remaining brain cells than tear the wings off wayward Jet fans.

This is a good point. (Though I'm not fading anywhere. )

The focus of this board should be on the inevitable upcoming championship resulting in the completion of Brady's revenge.

So you've never thought your "business" was complete and "fading into the distance", only to have your toilet back up on you?

A bunch.

1. San Fran
2. SF
3. 49ers
4. San Francisco
5. SF 49ers
6. San Francisco 49ers
7. The Forty Niners
8. XLIXers

Just to name a few.

That's a shame. The real beat-down was in the last minute or so, where Joe said that Ira kissed up to the Jets because he likes the attention he gets from the Jets staff.

He's not wrong about Bowles being a failure this season though. He's been horrible. Macc too somewhat. Re-signing Fitz and continuing to play him beyond week 3 were the biggest screw-ups, but it all waterfalled and Bowles lost the entire team.

Last season was a fluke. Fitzy played way above his career norms. This year both the O and the D tanked. They just don't have quality on their roster, and they won't be able to turn it around in one season. He's lost the locker room (which also says a lot about who they have in that locker room), and he doesn't show a lot of leadership from what I have seen. If they were smart they would already be doing a Cleveland style rebuild. They need to find a lot of good young talent before they can hope to contend.

One thing in his favor is odds are the team will get better next season so long as he doesn't lose the locker room again.

Say want ya will about the Jets, skill/player wise, they're not amongst the worst in the league (excluding Fitz). If Bowles can even be competent next season, the team should at least be playing meaningful games in December, and that will probably give him a 4th year in 2018.

Both NFL.COM and CBS.COM have them 27th out of 32, so, yeah, they are amongst the worst in the league, amongst people more objective than you.

Yep, I too am sick of the set of smart ass haters that are on Boston Sports Talk Radio.

If people were smart, they'd just stop listening to those ass hats.

The fact that they don't shows that they aren't very smart.

OK now that could be the most insulting thing said to me on this board yet. The people that vote in the power rankings are more objective than me?

I thought everyone knew those ratings were purely entertainment and a joke. In fact the Jets were top 10 I think for a couple weeks this year.

C'mon man! You had a couple good points (even though I disagreed with your conclusion) before the power rankings part.

Edit: Most of the "objective" guys who vote in the power rankings, also thought bringing Fitz back at any cost was smart too.

Edit #2: I place like 90+% of this season squarely on Fitz and the decisions about him. If Fitz and Brady were both in the gym struggling to bench press 100lbs (very likely), I'd help Brady and let the bar crush Fitz.

"oh daddy..the swallows are returning to Capistrano!"

"they do that every year, son...."

"oh look, Daddy...the tide is coming in!

"that happens every day, my boy..."

"Dad!! The Jets SUCK!"

"yes...yes they do, my boy..FOREVER"
