John Idzik says he wants a culture of "we" not "me."

Welp looks like we have no choice but to trade him now. This all could of been avoided had the jets just come out and nipped the BS from the start.

Regardless of what plan is for Revis it should of stayed in house.

@Briancoz
The NFL Network only sent out that one quote so it's unclear if Revis felt better after speaking with John Idzik.

Hasn't it been kept "in house"..Revis is the one *****ing..Shocking!

[DDNYjets]

I'm done with Revis. Can't wait for this guy to be wearing another uniform. Just hope we find some dumbfvck GM to give us a #1 for his broken down ass.

Not for nothing but Idzik came out and denied the reports. Revis knows the media makes shi!t up and he shouldn't feed into it. He is being selfish (shocking :rollseyes. FTR I think they were true but he is basically putting his new GM on blast. It is classless. A real leader would keep things in-house. He is just another part of the circus.

Buh-bye Mevis.

When asked about the Revis situation. The Jets didn't agree or disagree they just let it in linger.

Didn't they explain it during Idzik's presser and Idzik called Revis the next day to explain further...And now (if this interview took place after the Idzik/Revis phone call) Revis is chirping again???

Very good point. And I hope you are right. But we have seen this movie before.

How difficult would it have been for the Jets simply to call Revis after this started and just say, "Some teams have inquired about trading for you, we have no plans right now to do this, if anything changes we will call you to let you know."

It's just not that hard.

Idzik did call him..at least that was reported


NY Jets general manager John Idzik dials up Darrelle Revis after trade talk stirs
Saturday, January 26, 2013, 12:19 AM

The Jets’ new general manager tried to make sure his best player didn’t feel all alone on Revis Island.

John Idzik called Darrelle Revis on Thursday to clear the air after the star cornerback seemed miffed when two reports asserted that the Jets were willing to trade him. Idzik would not go into detail about the conversation, but told NBC Sports Network’s “Pro Football Talk” on Friday that Revis “reacted well” and “my feeling was that he was appreciative to hear from me about what happened.”

Revis, 27, coming off a serious knee injury, is due to become an unrestricted free agent after next season if he doesn’t hold out, and there is a clause in his contract that prohibits the Jets from using the franchise tag on him.

Contract issues are nothing new between Revis and the Jets. He sat out the 2010 preseason before agreeing to a deal.

Revis, who posted on Twitter that he was “speechless” upon seeing the initial reports about the Jets exploring trade options, did not make his thoughts on the call known immediately. He is currently rehabilitating from surgery for the torn ACL that put him on the shelf in September.

Neither owner Woody Johnson nor Rex Ryan gave Revis a public endorsement on Thursday, but teammate Antonio Cromartie made clear his thoughts on Revis’ situation as he prepared for the Pro Bowl in Hawaii.

“We can’t lose a guy like him,” Cromartie told NFL.com. “(Revis is) a great leader in the locker room and also in our DB room, making sure that guys are accountable for each other. To lose a guy like that would be huge. And even though he’s coming off the surgery, I believe he’ll come back as strong as ever.”

Idzik insisted that trade talk was “premature” during his introductory press conference.

“I reached out to Darrelle and I made sure he knew exactly where we were coming from and that this is my first day on the job, and our message to everyone was, ‘Give us a chance to get to know each other and introduce ourselves to each other,’ "Idzik told “Pro Football Talk.”

“So give us that chance and give us the chance to go through our current roster, ultimately that’s the basis of comparison to whatever you may contemplate doing. We haven’t taken that first step and that’s what I relayed to Darrelle,” he added.

In 2010, Revis signed a one-year extension to the remaining three years on his deal, for a total of $46 million.

Cromartie, meanwhile, also offered his thoughts on personnel beyond defense. He continued his support of Mark Sanchez and made clear that the quarterback needs better talent around him if the offense is going to improve next season.

“We have confidence in Mark,” Cromartie said. “Like I’ve always said, even with the whole (Tim) Tebow thing, if we’re going to sign Mark to a three-year extension, we need to make sure we put guys around him.”

That's just ridiculous. Any new general manager needs to familiarize himself with the players and then to develop a plan prior to making any commitments to a needy player. I can only guess the reason he is complaining is because he doesn't want to be a Jet anymore. He wants to force the issue. I like him as a player but I have to say his $hit is getting old.

So sick of this friggin' bullsh*t!!

Put him on the block, grab the best you can get and let's put this EXTREMELY talented but EXTREMELY selfish player in our rear view.
