Jets tried to hire a new OC

[Sweats]

I have zero concern over the Jets.......they'll implode again this year, like every season before.

That team has a ton of talent but the staff and Rodgers running the show will be their downfall.

Long term, agree with cause problems.  But if Rodgers can stay healthy and puts one great season together, you never know??

Hackett is the Peterson of the coaching ranks.   He somehow is able to find these lucrative jobs in spite of mediocre performance.

Peterman?

They’ll get their wildcard berth and be one and done. I think they just wanna break the 13 year drought at this point so I see why they’re going all in on Rodgers.

If JD and Saleh hope to keep their jobs they better, make the playoffs. Johnson was not happy at all last year, and he made those comments public. He didn't use the words "playoff mandate" for this season but that is really what it is. They will clean house if they have another disappointing season.

I’m not sure they even make the playoffs. Bills and Dolphins should at least split with the Jets if not sweep them. 
 

AFC is loaded too

 

Bills 

Bengals

Chiefs

Texans

Ravens

Browns

Steelers

Colts

Jags

 

All these teams are legit playoff contenders. Colts nearly made it with Gardner Minshew last year. 
 

The Jets coaching is awful. Hackett is horrible and Salah hasn’t proven anything besides he can coach a good defense that has also been absolutely shredded at times. I see the Jets as a fringe playoff team and coaching is their biggest hurdle. Can Hackett be out of the way enough to not be an issue? Is Rodgers going to be good at 40 when he is mulling his next career? 
 

The jets have more hype than they should

As a long-suffering Bills fan, I have concern about every opponent.  I've experienced too many disappointments and witnessed too many unhappy surprises over the years.  

 

When I was in the army, we planned for different scenarios: most likely, most favorable, most dangerous...  The most dangerous scenario is Saleh puts together another good defense and Rodgers stays healthy & has a good year.

They should have just asked Bills fans before they hired this loser. 

That's what I keep saying. Bills fans know he sucks. That was one of the worst hires by the Broncos and then the Jets turn around and hire him after he proved there he was a terrible.

Aaron Rodgers, the great white Jets hope.......sorry, i'm not buying it.

It's just classic nepotism. Rodgers loves him plus Hackett's dad was a well-respected coach. You see that garbage in every walk of life.

Pretty sure Rodgers turns his headset off when he’s on the field, just pretends he’s listening to the coach.

Agreed wrt Rodgers and all that, but my fear is that this year they've got a competent backup (Tyrod) who's practically lab-designed to get the Jets run-heavy, strong defensive roster to the playoffs. Then lose in the WC round.

Why I kinda hope Floyd doesn't end Rodgers' season in week one AGAIN on MNF. Taylor, limited as he is, might be the perfect game manager to capitalize on what the Jets actually do well.

Love all the continued Jets hype. So unearned (organizationally) and so market-based and marketing-based. Makes it sweeter when their ridiculous antics (Rodgers hitting the field with the flag streaming, only to be reminded of his mortality 4 plays in, for example). It's kind of heart-warming.

Don't get me wrong, nepotism is everywhere. It's amazing that a guy like Hackett, who should be an OC of a D3 football team at this point, is still getting chances. He basically destroyed the Broncos franchise. 

As a proud bench warming alumnus of a D3 Western Pa small school’s football program, I take great umbrage at the thought of having had Hackett as OC…and that’s coming from a program where our base O package was the triple option! 🙌

I hear ya Hondo…but still let’s categorize the Jets as most likely to finish the season living in an ayahusca totin’ van down by the river!

40 going on 41 coming off a serious injury. Tyrod Taylor will be starting many games for them this season.

Tyrod Taylor is 34 and will turn 35 before the season starts.  Not as old as Rodgers, but no spring chicken either.  I wonder if this won't be the oldest starter and backup QB in league history.
