He is. They should honestly just release him today because he serves no other purpose on the team.

At least he's trying. They should release the guys who don't have any interest in playing starting with Revis.

Releasing Revis ruins their cap right? I think he's set the stage to uh 'gracefully' retire in the offseason to free the Jets from that.

They should probably just IR him though.

They are on the hook for 6M next year for him no matter what and there is ZERO chance he's going to walk away from that. When has Revis ever walked away from a red cent?

Yeah there's no point in releasing him now unless they need the roster spot.

Of course there is a point. Send a message the disgraceful way in which he's playing is not going to be tolerated.

Good gently caress Spiller for taking reps from Bilal Powell. Also gently caress our coaching staff for taking reps from Bilal Powell.

Forte had a 40 yard catch and run and not one more catch for the rest of the game. That is worse than Spillers 2 carries.

We hire the opposite of what we just fired and since Rex had "a presence", albeit a lovely one that continually got him crucified in the media, we went in the opposite direction.

I really don't care that Bowles let the media know before Fitz because whatever. It's not like they need to maintain the relationship; he's gone.

I don't care about how lovely Bowles is in press conferences at all or his bad optics. The product on the field and his decisions in game are what looks bad for him. NTM the awful staff he hired which is one of my bigger criticisms of his.

Diva Cupcake posted:

We'll gently caress up the Haley and Shula negotiations and hire Darrell Bevell instead.

NO MORE hotshot assistant who have no HC experience. They need someone with some level of gravitas. I wouldn't even fire Bowles unless they can get a coach with a proven track record.

The other thing that annoys me about Bowles is that I don't think he's any more involved in the offense than Rex was which is just not what good HC's do.

Well he's an offensive coach so he'd at least suck in a different fashion. I think Haley could possibly be a pretty decent hire in the right situation. I kinda doubt the Jets are the right situation though.

Not indicative of his coaching but I noticed last week he's gone full mountain man with a huge beard.

If we're talking about a lateral move I would just as soon give Bowles another year. I think that is what they are going to do too.

Diva Cupcake posted:

I'm actually kinda of fine with Bowles for now. But Haley or Coughlin would be decent options should Woody take his cue from the back pages again and fire him.

Haley came up with the Jets and is a solid offensive guy. His father was a Jets guy. It's not the worst fit to allow him to develop a QB.

Why is that a good thing?

Also gently caress bringing in a 70 year old Giants retread. I think Bowles is a bad coach but I don't want either of those guys replacing him.

Ah cool, love that area. But yeah New Jersey is a very polarizing state. Most of what the Jersey stereotype is can be seen at Jets games more-so than Giants games. Not quite sure why that is.

Because Giants fan are all old rich guys.

Both of these are fair points and not wrong, but the demographic of Jets fan just seems to be every Italian-American New Jersey or Long Island stereotype imaginable and not even this generation but the past few generations.

Jet fans are much more working class since they are really a Queens team.

This might be something of a hot take, but I think Tyrod Taylor is a better quarterback than Colin Kaepernick.

If it's an upgrade it's too marginal to consider doing. Makes no sense. Same with Cutler.

h/t: Vic Carucci of the Buffalo News

In the interest of continuity, the continuity we desperately need for a team we think is going in the wrong direction, we are going to fire the head coach and starting QB.

In fairness Rex Ryan is a horrible coach who can't judge a QB to save his life so if Jones is really the next great QB, Rex wouldn't know that.
