A few football thoughts, I couldn’t figure out where you were going, lol
“ What if”, what if the Jets hired Dan Campbell instead of Saleh, then Ben Johnson probably would have been the OC the last 4 years. Would Zach have been in play with two very good offensive minds on the staff draft time. We will never know.
Granted, Their trade of Stafford was like hitting the lottery. Goff, a 3 and 2-1s was transformed into Goff, Jahmyr Gibbs, LaPorta, Jameson Williams and Ifeatu Melifonwu.
You can’t deny that the Lions are an excellent coached team
People like to look at schedules and go that’s a win, that’s a win etc.
I bet the first place Cardinals looked like a Jet win in the beginning of the season.
The Cardinals four losses have been by a combined 62 points, their last 3 wins have been by a combined 5 points. Second week of the season they pummeled the Rams, 41-10. They have won 3 of their last 4.
The Saints started the season with wins of a combined score of 91-29. They have now lost seven in a row.
After their first two games, Derek Carr forgot how to play quarterback and then got hurt.
Unfortunately the Saints used the Jets 2023 roster model of no established back up for the starting quarterback, fifth round pick Spencer Rattler is this years Zach.
The Raiders fired their first year OC Luke Getsy, their offensive line coach and their quarterback coach yesterday.
Some teams get it right when their offense is one of the worst in the league.
Getsy previously was the Bears OC for the last two years, where the Bears were stuck on the bottom of the league offensive statistics rankings.
Why is this interesting because the Jets went after Getsy in the offseason to help Hackett.
Steeler OC Arthur Smith was another target of Jet desires this offseason. The Steeler offense is currently in the bottom 3 of offensive rankings.
If these two coaches were Saleh’s idea, then you have a reason why he was fired but if JD was behind this stupidity then the question is, What the F are you thinking about, you want to get fired.
Thanks DWH. You had a lot on your plate this morning. Great analysis of the growth of Will Mc. Sometimes, the popular stats don't paint the entire picture. Film, on the other hand, never lies.
The Jets took a lot of heat when they drafted McDonald.
Contrary to NFL folklore, they had no intention to draft the tackle out of Georgia.
Remember how Belichick supposedly screwed the Jets, he actually was so giddy, he screwed himself by taking less value. That tackle is a second stringer currently playing due to other players injuries.
If I remember correctly, McDonald draft grade fell because his senior numbers fell. But according to the Jets, Iowa State staff put him inside his senior year, hurting his numbers. He was probably 220 soak and wet playing inside.
Currently Huff’s playing time yesterday was cutback due to an injured hand. For the season, he has 3 tackles and 1 1/2 sacks
This week I have a realist mindset. Not getting my hopes up but not expecting a loss. What we know is the Jets have yet to be consistent on all the sides of the ball in a FULL game since their win against the Patriots where we scored in every quarter and held Patriots to 3 points. We were good in the second half but that first half was rough.
Hoping whatever clicked at halftime continues. And sometimes the positivity snowballs and you can go on a run. I would love to say that catch saved out season but won't until we're in the playoffs and making a run there as well.
I have to apologize, I forgot to add yesterday’s score from Cardinals. They beat the Bears by 20, so they have won 4 out of their last 5 by a total of 25 points. Substack doesn’t let us edit posts. Cardinals stand alone in the NFC west at 5-4
The Jets control their own destiny which is a scary proposition for Jets fans. One game at a time, I’m still not allowing any hope. I will watch the games and root my ass off for a win. The second half of the Texans game was awesome and Wilson is awesome, might be the best catch of the season in the entire NFL. The Jets can go on a run but will they? Time will tell. In the mean time I will take a page from Jet X and enjoy the games no matter the outcome.

FROM RICH CIMINI
In March, 2023, the hot NFL story was the Aaron Rodgers/Derek Carr QB sweepstakes.
Rodgers lands with the #Jets: Robert Saleh fired 22 games later
Carr lands with the #Saints : Dennis Allen fired today, 26 games later.
The Jets took a lot of heat when they drafted McDonald.
Contrary to NFL folklore, they had no intention to draft the tackle out of Georgia.
Remember how Belichick supposedly screwed the Jets, he actually was so giddy, he screwed himself by taking less value. That tackle is a second stringer currently playing due to other players injuries.
