No offense but when did the season have promise? They started off 1 and fucking 8. And who whines about taking a TE in the 2nd when you don't have a TE worth a damn on your roster He had HUGE 3rd down drops in the GB game and the Bears game. HUGE, game changing opportunities. I will never forget it. As far as taking a TE, I was more complaining about the history of taking 1st round TEs year after year after year. Those picks KILLED us. And Amaro, w/ his stone hands, seems to be another in a long line of mistakes. Hope he wakes up this year. Your comeback is two drops? Two drops that didn't cost a single game, but were parts of the loss? You want to blame the season on two drops by a second round TE? Better yet, you watched the GB and Bear games and walked away believing the reasons for losing those two games were Jace Amaro? LOL, ok And the the season that was still promising? Do you realize how ridiculous that sounds, they started 1-8. Lost 8 in a row. There never was any promise to the season. They won their first game over an even shittier Raider team. That's not promising. And where was this imaginary team that has a "history of taking 1st round TEs year after year after year"? What are you talking about, Kotites drafts? Last century! And if Kotite fucked up with a picking a bust TE no one else is allowed to draft a TE when the team needs one, doesn't have one worth a shit? This makes sense on what level? And the the last part, Amaro in no way looks like a bust to anyone who isn't part of the immediate gratification crowd.

Or, he's a fun loving doosh with a lap band, and a passion for thinking big. He scared the hell out of Belidick, which is closer than anyone else here has gotten. His teams get no respect on offense; Last Chance Gas for Rexy. More importantly when he was calling out Belidick as the Jets HC the Pats fans couldn't care less, but he does it TO Jets fans, from Buffalo, and the fanbase buys it hook line and sinker and can't stop talking about it

More importantly when he was calling out Belidick as the Jets HC the Flats* fans couldn't care less, but he does it TO Jets fans, from Buffalo, and the fanbase buys it hook line and sinker and can't stop talking about it Jackasses who bought into Rex's false bravdo loved it. Hell, I loved it when we were actually...well...winning. But when you're a sub .500 football team...it's unbelievably ridiculous. People may love what Rex SAYS...but when have you EVER seen a truly successful HC act this way? And by "successful"...I'm not talking about a guy whose teams finished in 3rd/4th place two years in a row and some fans take that as some kind of grand accomplishment. I'm talking about about a guy who has won championships. Rex is like a mirror image of Jerry Glanville. A guy who everyone on his team loved, everyone around the league hated, and a guy who ultimately won jackshit. Was famed for his aggressive style of defensive playcalling (aka the Gritz Blitz) yet won nothing of any real importance. Ultimately, Glanville is historically known as a joke. And I see Rex following the same path. Judging by every report, Rex had the Atlanta job in the palm of his hand. A team that already had an explosive offense in place...all they really needed is a defense to fall back on. And what does Rex do? He goes to a situation that is nearly identical to the one that he was just fired from. It's as if common sense skipped a generation in his family. Hell, two generations when you take Buddy into account. Rex will go down as a fantastic defensive mind, the same as his father before him. But he'll never break the glass ceiling beyond that. Because he's simply grounded in some kind of archaic mindset that has passed the game by...YEARS ago.

You can't disagree that the Jets fanbase is flopping around like a fish on a hook in reaction to his calling out Amaro and the team. They have NOT moved on from Rex, it's like he's an ex-girlfriend they can't stop thinking and talking about and having revenge fantasies about burning down his house.

I think nothing of it. This is no different than Rex's reactions to Brandon Jacobs or Phillip Wheeler in the past. Only difference is...he's on the opposite side of the fence now. Only difference is...most coaches don't react to this kind of stupid bullshit like Rex does. Everyone kept acting like we fucked up royally by letting go of Rex because he might finally learn his lesson, learn from his mistakes and become a better HC because of it...well, it sure as hell doesn't seem like it to me, at least not so far. As soon as he was hired in Buffalo he started in with the same empty promises that he originated here. As I've said before repeatedly, the guy is a quality defensive mind. But do I want him controlling the overall development of my team? Well...no. Hell no

But do I want him controlling the overall development of my team? Well...no. Hell no OK - you're having a different conversation than I am How so, exactly? You, me and Jetstream usually see eye to eye on basically everything besides Rex. To me, he is what he is. To you and Jetstream, he's some kind of mythological being who is untouchable based on his first two years here. I couldn't care less about what Rex did half a decade ago. He's had 4 straight seasons of missing the playoffs. That shit doesn't cut it. I don't care whether you're the Yankees, Mets, Giants or Jets. You get fired for that shit. Period. So Rex is likable...well whoopty shit. So was Jerry Glanville. So was Herm Edwards. And yada yada yada. Whatever. Make no mistake, I'm not trying to say that Rex is some useless dickhole who offers nothing...but would I trade Bowles in for him? Fuck no At least Bowels has heavily acknowledged from the get-go that he would oversee every aspect of the team. We never saw any semblance of that under Rex. It was all about his defense from the beginning.

I'm talking about how fans of his opponents' teams (before, the Pats, now the Jets) react to his bravado. The pats fans could care less. The Jets fans are freaking out.

You won't win with the ego maniac who feels that part of her mod duties are to correct and belittle every comment she disagrees with, yet when Ragu rips Rex to fuck she has nothing to say. Of course jet fans are goin to react differently to Rex's bravado, he's our ex head coach not theirs. I see through her fake internet persona like I see through Rex, because she has 24 rep from the "kiss the mods ass" posters, and knitts a few bobble hats for people, we all have to be nodding dogs and agree with everything she says. Ray and countless others have nailed it when it comes to VTN.

Huh?? What did I say about her? I actually kinda agreed with her and Jetstream when it came to Rex... pretty much until I heard him start talking in Buffalo. Don't miss him at all. We would never have improved. He would think we're good enough for a Superbowl right now and would be talkin like a fool and nobody would be working out or doing shit, apparently.
But yeah, VTN flipped out on me because I was joking around with her and I'm not sure what kind of idea she got, but yeah we had a disagreement and I wasn't particularly happy she went to Ragu telling him there was a problem and didn't even say a word to me about it, like I can read minds. I was just kidding around and she seemed to think it was funny. Or so I thought. Any rate, VTN's just a woman, most of them act pretty similar, I like her enough tho for the most part. There are far worse, I'll tell ya that much. It seems like she'd lightened up and isn't taking things quite as seriously, which is nice.
But I will guarantee I do not feel the same was about her as that dumbass RayRay... He's personally bothered by the shit, whatever it is. lol

It's nearly every fuckin comment....
If she actually had something to say of any substance to the topic then fair enough.
99.9% of her posts are giving someone shit for their views, trying to belittle or ridicule people for having an opinion that differs from hers.
I don't need an emotional internet wife, I've got the real thing making breakfast with a face on right here.
