Great take. The only thing I would dispute is that Reddick is a worse trade than Rodgers. Reddick's trade was isolated. When Jets got Rodgers, the entire offense and expectations changed. Rodgers required his offensive systems, OC, and players. Rodgers set the organization back organization back another 5 years. For all the issues, prior to the Rodgers trade, Jets were moving in the right direction (and for those who would dispute that, remember why Rodgers wanted to go to the Jets in the first place).
Too bad owners are almost totally untouchable. The next generation of fans will say, “Brick will find a way to screw it up. Brick is the major problem.”
@@PeterAllen09 Opposing teams’ fans will happily fill the stadium. The NFL shares revenue among teams. The result is that owners are insulated from any real pain.
@@mjjoe76 A stadium filled with an opposing team's fans is humiliating to an owner. Yeah, they want money, but these people have massive egos. Humiliation works.
@@PeterAllen09 As I often say "I believe in negative reinforcement." Maybe all Jets fans should threaten to short sell Johnson & Johnson stock, that would get his attention.
We really don't need the makings of a SB team, we need the makings of a team that can win more than 5 games a season. Start there, but Woody wants the big fancy garden without doing the work of planting, nurturing and understanding what best makes it grow. Owns a team because he thinks that is just what rich guys should have. Worst type of owner.
The Jets gambled that Rodgers still had a lot left in the tank as a 40 year old QB. The fact that the GB Packers didn't want him to return as their Starting QB should have tipped them off that he was a shell of a starting QB. In addition, the coaching staff has been awful. It was a bad decision to fire Saleh which led to an average D becoming Awful. Also Jd made poor decisions with respect to the Defensive line such as trading for Reddick and signing Kinlaw.
Rodgers had a disappointing season in ‘22 and the Pack missed the playoffs. Maybe the Jets thought he just needed a change of scenery. But he seems more focused in non-football interests.
I was foaming at the mouth at the pundits all off-season. This was so predictable. You have a QB turning 41 on one repaired ACL, who missed an entire season and skipped minicamp, who you KNEW was going to have mobility issues. And then said “O line? We’re not sweating that”. They could’ve put hall of famers at every skill position group and this offense would’ve struggled to score points. It was coming a mile away.
The lesson goes back to the 2021 draft. Don't draft 2nd overall a one-year wonder QB with a very suspicious single year of success, onto a team with NO talent and a rookie coaching staff. Trade that pick, build your team, and go QB hunting later, if the guy you drafted 3rd overall in 2018 doesn't work out. That was the incredibly obvious decision, that no one wanted to see. Not seeing killed the team
Zach was high on a lot of teams draft boards, so It wasn't just JD, who didn't see him as a inexperienced QB. Zach has great arm talent but mentally he doesn't measure up. in addition the coaching staff didn't do a great job with Zach
@@slowrunner14 I hear this a lot, but I don't care that he was high on other team's draft boards. The Jets had no talent on the roster and a rookie coaching staff, and they expected a guy with a good arm to solve their problems. That was idiotic.
@@slowrunner14 They say misery loves company, but it really doesn't matter whether other GMs would have made the same mistake. All that matters is that ours made it and we, as fans, paid the price.
Jets are and have always been by far the most delusional fan base in the league. Facts. Your fans are very complimentary and perfectly allign with the Jets' ownership.
It’s very simple- Woody is a guy who was born on third base and is a fool. And that fool owns the team and can do whatever he wants. Nothing will change as long as he continues to own the team.

It’s actually two disappointing seasons for Rodgers as a Jet

@@mjjoe76they banked on it being just his injury
But forgot he had been injured 4 of his last 7 seasons.

An extremely short term time frame in #1 year! Not #3 years!!!

That would have been a better move, although I doubt the coaching staff would have been able to develop Sam Darnold.
@@jimglatthaar4053 I agree. And as disappointing as that would have been, it still would have been the better move.
