I agree with Ray Ray. If we pretty much do nothing except get some of our injured players back, sign our draft picks, and maybe bring in a free agent or two (oh, and fire Tanny), we're looking at being a 12-4 team, with a chance to go 13-3. We were close until the injuries happened.

Manish says he never goes to Friday pressers and that is why he wasn't there.



Claims he spoke to multiple sources for the story.
Makes no sense that a denial is off the record.

Who is the QB who will take you to 13-3 next season, a record that the team has never achieved in it entire history? And please elaborate how you "were close" this year before injuries? Just curious.

Nothing makes sense.

Which is why we need to nuke the whole thing. If Rex is an innocent victim so be it. This regime stinks like a dead fish. The entire thing needs to be cleansed. Normally I would call for using a scalpel but I think we are way beyond that.

Jets need:

A Qb worth a damn.
A RB
A TE
A WR
Two olbs
Probably one olineman
Probably one safety
One ILB.
A new oc
A new DC
A new special teams coach.


Yeah we are close and just need to sign a player or two.

Ray,

How much does it cost to have the extra user id?

After week 1, we were on pace for a 16-0 season! Then we just ran into a string of bad luck, is all. Just wait until Sanchez find a 4-leaf clover - then you'll be sorry!!!

I'm pretty sure I haven't suggested anything close to this.

So let me get this straight :


The mysterious "unnamed source" that Manish has used was none other than Pettine?


So the butler DID do it after all.....

Francessa says Pettine is leak. All I know is Pettine was internally SLAPPED last year for leaking stuff to press.
Here's the amazing thing. If this was done to him last season they still offered him a contract extension in Sept (as reported)...

Hilarious!

People forget how Rex took back alot of the playcalling from Pettine this season and announced it to the world...So who is to say they are still close as they were a few years ago....

So it was Pettine, in the conservatory, with the candlestick.

I'm not saying that their offseason plan should be lay low, but given how close we were to having a good team before the injury bug wrecked us, it wouldn't lead to disaster if that's all we did. Obviously we need to improve because everyone else will, but we weren't that far out of the race this year that we need to nuke the whole thing.

Wow, did someone start their weekend early?

Do you have any idea how hard it is to go 13-3 in todays NFL and this team is going to do it while replacing at least 1 Guard, 1 OLB, 1 safety and starting a new RB, a new NT, and possibly a new TE. Oh and the small problem of having no starting QB.

I think there is talent on this team and the chance to have a dominant defensive line/front 7 if we use our first round pick on OLB and find someone like matt flynn, but to say we are going 12-4 with our schedule next year is ridiculous
