The 2012 season: the Jets [Mod Edit: STILL] suck

[I Augustus]

New York Jets’ Tim Tebow remains versatile but useless - Linda Robertson - MiamiHerald.com

The New York Jets experiment, which began with such fanfare and head-scratching, was a predictable failure.

Tebow is like a solid, shiny, multifaceted gemstone that can’t be fashioned into anything practical, so it becomes a paperweight.

I have a technical question;
Do Jets have to release Tim Tebow twice since they trade for him twice,as well ?

Here is the BOTTOM LINE to the Jets attempt to hire a GM and fill a coaching staff. No GM or assistant coach who has another option is going to go to NJ. Its as simple as that.

It might not mean that the GM or assistants that they eventually hire won't be good at their jobs. but it DOES mean that they had no where else to go. I mean what qualified assistant want to go to a team where the coach is on a one year leash, a horrible cap situation, and a bad roster, that isn't going to get better fast.....if you had another option.

I mean....WTF, they are losing out to Jacksonville for Christ's sake for employees. How bad is THAT. But I have to admit that in Jacksonville at least they have some hope for the future. Unfortunately for the Jets (and this rivalry) the future is more than a few years away.

Hey, I'm kinda new to your wonderful site. But I got a question. This Jets thing...

Has this been going on as a long standing division rivalry, or is this mostly because of Rex Ryan?

I don't care about this thing y'all call football up here, so I really don't know. But, the Jets have been a joke since the latest "re-alignment" right? 2002, when we went to 4 divisions.....

Or do I have that wrong?

NY Jets targeting David Lee as Rex Ryan

Lee, who reintroduced the Wildcat to the NFL during his three seasons (2008-2010) with the Dolphins, would be asked to get Mark Sanchez back on track.

Ryan and owner Woody Johnson didn’t commit to Sanchez during a season-ending press conference on Tuesday. Ryan, however, maintained that Sanchez’s $8.25 guaranteed base salary for 2013 won’t play a role in whether he’s the starter.

So what are the Jets hoping for...Fitzpatrick #2?

Don't laugh. Lee would be a huge get for the Jets. He is the guy responsible for turning Fitzpatrick and Chad Henne into the superstars they are today.

 

[Rob0729]

BTW, I just got a call from Woody Johnson's assistant telling me they want me to interview me for their GM job. She told me they are expanding their search to people on message boards that they feel know something about personnel evaluations. That tells you how bad their ability to pick good talent is considering of all the message board posters the chose me.

Apparent Rah! Ray! Was unavailable.

Rex is hoping that he'll change Sanchez into a Wildcat QB and Tebow into a pocket passer.

Obviously jets fans (there are some who can read, really there are) complained

I wonder if the complaints were due to the abundance of reality in the Wiki or an absence of topless photos.

No matter what happens tomorrow, the Jets will be at home wondering what it takes to be a contender. Not a "Be a joke for 30+ years, luck into 2 AFCCG's, and go back to being a f***ing circus", but an ACTUAL contender.

Go ****** Yourselves, NY Jets. And your stupid fans.

I find this funny........


For all the people screaming about how bad a QB Tebow is, he's won a playoff game more recently than both Mark Sanchez and Peyton Manning, the two QBs he got passed over for. :singing:

Now you've gone and given Rats fans another twig to grasp at frantically as a life preserver.

They'll post this alongside their "Two Time AFCCG Losing Team" threads.

It also has to do with the nature of Jets fans.

The Texan fans who have visited are good folks the Jets fans OTOH are the scum of the earth with a few exceptions.

It's part of a whole Boston/NYC thing, Pats/Jets, Sox/Yankees, Celts/Knicks, Bruins/Rangers, really started in 1917.

NY is the media capital, and so on.

While I think Jets will hire some1 quickly for GM job, they have been getting rebuffed a lot and gone back to some asking them to reconsider

While it is better for the Pats if they keep Rex Ryan, it would be awesome if their lack of interested GM candidates forced them to fire Rex.

The exploding rodent heads in the swamps would be priceless.

Florio puts it more bluntly:

Maybe the Jets eventually will just bring back Mike Tannenbaum.

Something has to happen at some point, because Jets owner Woody Johnson is having a hard time finding a new General Manager. Per Jay Glazer of FOX, the team “can’t give the position away.”

Maybe Tannenbaum already said no.
