Ok.  List your reasons why you think Rhule is a good coach.


You’ve already made up your mind on a guy who just coached his first nfl season (with pandemic conditions)?

Give the guy some time.

Moton is on the right side because he is not a LT.  The Turner for Okung trade can be graded as either a win or a wash in my book.  Okung only played half the season because he can't stay on the field, but I think he was decent when healthy.  His contract was also an expiring one, while the Chargers straight up cut Trai Turner this offseason.  We got an overpaid player off the books essentially.

I may not be reading his contract correctly, but I think we had already paid out his gauranteed money before the trade...  Signing bonus was $15mil... GTD was $20,500,000, he made $4.7 in 2018 and he made well over $5mil in 2019.  If he had sucked in 2020 we could've cut him for nothing.

I heard that Rhule made an example out of Turner and that the trade was to save value because he was going to be cut.

Because dumb. I'm afraid we repeated that mistake with the Darnold trade.

What other options did they have?? March Will Grier out there to intentionally tank? Are you nuts? No self respecting professional would ever do that from a management/coaching level to a player level. The jets tried to tank last year and their entire coaching staff is gone, Doug Pederson tanked last year, he’s now jobless. Who was the Jaguars coach last year? Exactly. 
 

As far as bridge water is concerned who gives af what he says, he won 4 games last year, pj walker won 1 by shut out(while throwing two red zone tds). Bottom line is the guy threw 15 tds with dj, robby, Samuel, and an in form mike davis, the cry baby can kick rocks.

Made up my mind?  I said he's struggling to keep his head above water and listed reasons why I think that.  None of which were covid related.

What would've been the difference between Teddy and Kyle Allen? Hell, honestly Kyle Allen is better.

You're right... we should've kept Ron for another season so we could've tanked and fired the staff the same year like we did last time.

They should've kept Cam and run he and Kyle Allen out there to the tune of a 1 win season so we could've drafted Trevor Lawrence.  What we did was stupid at the time and even more stupid now that we got rid of Bridgewater.

It sounds like you’re made up your mind based on what you’re posting.

He definitely is struggling. It’s obvious, but who in his position wouldn’t be?

I personally like what he’s doing here, but I expect him to struggle for a while.

The Darnold thing will probably bite him in the ass, but I recognize he didn’t have a ton of options.

      If you wanted Danny Dimes here’s the chance

      By Jackie Lee · Posted

      Strange, every news article and tweet I just searched all mentioned waivers. It is definitely his sixth year of at least 6 games. All I was trying to think of earlier was at the vet min could he beat out Bryce in camp next year lol. He's kinda got the old Darnold issue where he can obviously launch deep balls and qb run at a level Bryce will never achieve, but it sounds like he would be content being like a Josh Allen backup who doesn't throw the whole game plan out the window if he has to come in for a series or two. If we had him and for some reason still wanted to start Bryce he would kinda do what Justin Fields was doing the other night with Dangeruss, coming in for designed runs and maybe some play action/triple option rpo things to go deep. That would be so obvious and sad though. At least Russ can still sling it 40 yards in the air with a flick of the wrist

      Too late to edit above but the quote is from this Diane Russini article in the Athletic: https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/5941684/2024/11/23/russinis-what-im-hearing-the-day-the-jets-fell-apart-and-the-broncos-rallied-belichick-best-fits/ Okay.. there you have sorry I left that out the first post.  Also waivers keep the contract intact. That is the major difference in released and waived. It's all in that link from the other post.

      Okay so I am reading something in The Athletic and it says that Jones had to pass through waivers. So I don't know. I looked this stuff up when we were number one there all offseason and I thought it said 4 years in the league got you vested, as they call it.  Vested gets you out of waivers as I understood it. I probably got something wrong, but when I think about the slack quality of journalism these days I wonder about that. So I went and looked, again. Well, well.  For everyone: "When a player has accrued at least four seasons in the NFL, they are considered a vested veteran. When these vested veterans get cut, they are released and their contract is terminated. When a vested veteran is released, they are an unrestricted free agent that can sign with any NFL team, and the team that released them doesn’t need to provide any additional compensation." It runs it all down here, where the quotes came from: https://www.profootballnetwork.com/waived-vs-released-nfl/ As far as Jones, the team turned down his 5th year option so I knew that meant he had 4 years in, because they re-signed him anyway, after turning down the much cheaper extra year.  The Athletic is owned by the New York Times so I shouldn't be surprised. That paper was an institution once upon a time but they let their standards go.
