What if the head coach they hire sucks? I'm sick of these stupid predictions

Considering Schotty is on their radar, I'd say the chance of them hiring a HC that sucks is pretty high.

I am with you, I want the same things. What I don't want is a yes-man for Rex. Again checks and balances are the key to any well run organization. And I like Rex at HC for the record. Not to invite too many trolls in here, but patman would agree that BB the HC outshines BB the GM.

I understand the avoidance of a yes man. But with Rex admitting to everybody that he held this team back, he is suggesting that he wants to learn. And that getting an experienced football mind in here would be a great experience for him.

That, I can understand and accept. However, he has got to prove it via action. Until he does that, these are just words that don't mean anything.

Well look at last year. Last year he said to Francesca that he was going to not be as brash and make predictions and rile people. And for the most part, he was quiet and didn't say much.

Yes I sincerely hope so. I think we are actually on the same page. I don't really care what the GM's personality is, but if the Jets do isn't that just as silly? Did that make any sense (no sarcasm intended)?

It is a bit silly. But then again, I've also heard from sources (Bassett, a weak source, but still a source) that the falling out in the interview with Gamble was his cap philosophy.

Exactly. We already have enough personality with Rex. We need a reasonably smart guy to gets us some picks that Rex and staff can coach up.

Learn what? That having a great offense is vastly more important than having a great defense?

This franchise is going to suck not only due to the retaining of Rex but because Woody Johnson is fail.

Here's the truth:

THIS TEAM WILL SUCK UNTIL WOODY JOHNSON SELLS IT.

Eckesg1 · 01-10-2013, 01:26 PM

And actually the more I hear about Jim Popp, the more I really like this guy. He has several connections to the Jets. He has done wonders with the CFL salary cap. He could bring Marc Trestman who could coach up Mark Sanchez or any new QB we get.

And plus he looks like Barry Melrose minus the beard.

Offense wins in the regular season. Defense wins in the playoffs.

A Passing game scores points. A Running game wins games.

He looks like the Nature Boy, Ric Flair.

You need to have both because sooner or later you will be on one side of a lead or the other. Teams that are great when they get the lead and run the ball can falter in games where they get behind. Both times the NY Giants be the Pats it was because of their passing game, not the running game.

Plus there's another good thing about this possible hire for Woody, always looking for the headlines.

Think of the buzz this would cause by hiring a CFL legend, a mysterious figure in America.
