If this is true Idzik should go now...I give Rex huge props for the way he has conducted himself knowing this shit, especially with Idzik sabotaging him roster and otherwise this season. There is no way Idzik can stay now, sneaky little shit. THIS, Big Time. Plus, look at what Rex has given us: 2 AFC Championship games, Top 10 Defenses, a reason to watch the Jets. Idzdik: threw a season away, GENO, no cornerbacks, big buck teeth no comparison So losing in AFCCG's is some sort of significant accomplishment? What Rex has given Jets fans in 6 years: -Zero Division titles, never finishing closer than 2 games out. -Zero Conference championship -Zero Super Bowl appearances, which he boldly predicted. -4 non-winning, non-playoff seasons in a row. -an overall below .500 record as HC -created a circus atmosphere that is the joke of the league

Ok. If this is true, I think Idzik is AWESOME. Not sure about everyone else, but we've tried winning with "nice" guys running the show the past few years and it does not work. You need a ruthless SOB who can give two shits about every subject other than "How do I win a SB". Frankly, if Idzik purposely threw this season and it lands the Jets a top 2 pick in the draft, it will be one of the most significant "Missions Accomplished" in the history of the franchise.
John Idzik = Evil Genius

I personally hope Rex is fucking him right back by delivering so many losses that even the Gm can't survive. That would be well served justice right there. Nice way to treat your fans, Idziot. Tank a season instead of manning up and firing the guy when you wanted to.

More from PFT:
Jets wouldn’t let Rex talk about Buddy’s health situation Posted by Mike Florio on November 26, 2014, 8:34 AM EST rexandbuddy.jpg?w=231Getty Images
Leave it to the Jets to be dysfunctional even in the process of disintegrating under the weight of dysfunction.
According to Manish Mehta of the New York Daily News, the Jets blocked coach Rex Ryan from talking to Mehta about a bye-week visit to his ailing father, legendary NFL defensive guru Buddy Ryan. Buddy, who rose to prominence as defensive coordinator of the ’85 Bears and then coached the Eagles and Cardinals, is battling cancer.
“Ryan was happy to discuss the visit, but a media relations official intervened presumably because of the News’ critical stories about Idzik,” Mehta wrote. “Asked who made the decision to prevent a willing Ryan from sharing stories about his father, the media relations official said, ‘I don’t have to tell you.'”
Mehta interprets the muzzling of Rex Ryan as proof positive that, once the season ends, Ryan will no longer be the team’s head coach. Apparently, the team fears that Rex would become more sympathetic in the eyes of the fan base if he’s dumped by the team at a time when his father is fighting a serious illness.
That sounds more than a little goofy, but why else would the Jets not let Ryan talk about his father, especially when his father is a famous former NFL coach?
The disclosure comes as part of a broader column in which Mehta goes all in against G.M. John Idzik, arguing that Idzik should be fired, too. Although an unlikely upset of the Steelers seemed to go a long way toward saving Idzik, a 35-point Monday night blowout loss to the Bills may have pushed the needle the other way.
With Ryan surely done, the question becomes whether he’ll win enough games down the stretch to save Idzik. If it was Idzik who gave the order to keep Rex from talking about Buddy, Rex should mail in the last five.

John Idzik = Evil Genius If the report is true, then Idzik has earned the Evil part, but there is nothing that we have seen to suggest that he has earned the Genius label.

This sounds like one of those Manish "anonymous sources" articles.

True or not, Idzik has absolutely ZERO ability to evaluate talent and will destroy each and every draft moving forward. Nice guy or evil guy... doesn't matter. Fire this incompetent GM.

I really don't find this to be that much of a stretch, TBQH. I mean, Rex had to know he was on a trial basis type of gig with the short extension that basically amounted to a 1 year rental. Then when he saw how little was done to improve the offense he had to know it was going to be an uphill battle. Not saying the article is golden, just that the belief that things were not going in Rex's favor was pretty obvious.

No need to get snarky, I think Fish was simply referring to your all-too-familiar quatrain being invoked. In other words, lighten up, Francis, this isn't JI. Also, I hit 'edit' instead of 'quote', hence my edit of your post.
