Their whole QB strategy is baffling. Grabbing the raw talent from the small school, not having any NFL vets around in the off season for him to learn from, going into the season with a career journeyman as the backup, expecting the kid to start from a dead stop and play at a NFL level is just baffling. It was really pushing all the chips onto the table, and it's turning out to be craps. It was do or die for Douglas, and now we can see it will be die.
As you said, the Jete were starting from the absolute basement in terms of talent and team chemistry. I don't get why the Jete fans think appointing a new rah-rah kind of coach is going to fix all that in six games. Those fans really only have themselves to blame for being disappointed. You and I can see Punky needs a few years of seasoning before anything can be expected from him, why cant Jete fans? Look at how long BUF had to be patient with Allen before he found himself. Why were the Jete fans optimistic after seeing how Darnit was rushed on to the field with no talent around him?
Joe Benigno said he can't take another 2-14 season. Well, it seems he will have no choice but to do just that, and at least one more to follow.
They do everything the opposite of the way it should be done. It’s baffling.
