With Rodgers emerging from the darkness maybe we'll start to see some movement. Jets told Carr they think he has hall of Fame potential with them but apparently they want to wait and see what a 39 year old QB they'll have to trade for is doing. That franchise is a mess.

They have been a mess since the 1970's...

They play in another teams home stadium!

He made them better. They wouldn’t have had the same level of success without Brees. We are seeing that play out as Ramczyk has had the two worst seasons of his career the past two seasons. Still a very good player, but of course adds something

They made each other better, which is my entire point....I think injuries more than anything has impacted Ram's performance.....

They had better records before and after Allen. Why do you ignore that?

I never said that he was a good coach. I don't know one way or the other. But, I'm not holding anything against anyone for what they did at Oakland, especially for someone with so little experience at the time. Going by his first year as the Saints HC, he had a very good draft. Allen deserves some credit for that. But, was that just a blind squirrel finding a nut, or is Allen + Ireland pretty good at getting talent? There's not a big enough sample set to know that. We at least know that DA is better at drafting QBs than Payton. :D

I think his coaching hires were pretty good last year and this year. I'm not sure keeping Pete was a good decision. But, Pete has success before so I don't know if it was a bad decision, either.

I didn't like how he handled the QB situation. But, if the players would have had an issue with how he handled that, we'd know by now from Underhill or MT. So, I'm guessing there's more to the story than has been leaked to the public.

So, there are some things to be encouraged about, and some things to be discouraged about. We each choose which we want to focus on.

I might be in the minority, but I'm looking forward to the draft and next season. Maybe next season sucks, but I'm not go into next season with the idea that next season is going to suck no matter what because DA is the HC, until it does.

If you can't find reasons to be positive as a fan in the offseason before any games have been won or lost, it kinda sucks being a fan.

I keep saying this, but they have a severe inferiority complex with the Giants.
It’s one thing to share a stadium and you’re basically in the same area of success as that other franchise.
But the Giants have four Super Bowls, numerous HOFers, and is considered one of the cornerstone franchises of the League.
While the Jets are on the complete opposite end. The last Jets championship was more than a half century ago. They’ve been dysfunctional ever since AND they gotta share the same stadium and look at those four Lombardis the Giants own.
I think I may be reading too much into this, but the Jets will never have long term success until they move out into their own stadium.

This is how dysfunctional the Jets are. Rex Ryan can legit be considered the greatest Jets coach of the past forty five years.

Parcells only made it to 1 AFCC appearance. Rex had two appearances!

Yeah, but Parcells is on Mt Rushmore and Ryan is on Mt Footmore.

It’s like Rick Astley has more solo number one hits than John Lennon, but nobody places Astley over Lennon when they rank male British music stars.

But that adds to this inferiority complex with the Giants.
What made Parcells one of the greatest coaches happened when he was with the Giants, not the Jets.
Ryan is a full Jets coach.
