2015 JETS A New Era Begins...................again!

If you look at the good and bad of the Jets, they have been to two back-2-back AFC championship games in the last 15 years. A lot of teams can't say that. But when the jets are bad they are REALLY bad. But I know every year it's going to bad. Would I rather be told we are playoff team and watch them shit the bed year after year like the cowboys? Probably not
Jets will be OK. I think Wilson is going to be really good. Youngest team in Football. Lawson will come back next yr hopefully healthy. We have real good draft capital for next yrs draft, if we draft well, we can be good soon. The pick for Jamal Adams is looking good, as long as Seahawks keep losing and our own which will also be a high pick. Stay positive.
To me, it makes sense because this is a "we just gotta get through this week" kind of move. Wilson and White are the future. Why jeopardize the long-term future and risk them getting injured some more by playing them when they're not 100%?
I question why the Jets didn't have two QBs on their roster behind Wilson to begin with, or at least one stashed on the practice squad. And why Flacco? Was Matt Robinson not taking calls last week?

Makes no sense to start Flacco, none. Here's why: White isn't hurt, you need to see if the Cincy game was a fluke and the Buffalo game is more true to the kind of player he is. Why start a 38 year old backup journeyman (past 5 years or so) over a guy that you NEED to evaluate at in game speed. Who cares how many dimes he's dropping to the WR's in practice, need to see that in real time with a D Line in your face. Can't wrap these guys in bubble tape, they only grow with real reps and experience. Flacco should be holding White's clip board Sunday.
One of the most head scratching decision I have ever seen made by Jets. Couple that with giving away a 6th rounder for Flacco, and its scary to know that those decisions are being made by the GM and coach. Where is the talent evaluation in your OWN quarterback room?! It's a reoccurring theme it seems with Douglas, his inability to scout talent. He has not hit on many of his picks for a guy with a ton of early round selections.

60 million in cap space
9 picks, 4 in the top 38
What are the Jets and Douglas going to do?
Here is the shopping list I came up with.
2 Wr's
1 Stud TE
2 Offensive Lineman
2 Linebackers
1 Edge Rusher
2 Safties
2 DB's
Maybe a new qb and gm in '23?
Anyone else intrigued by Schultz as a possible free agent signing? I think he would fit well in current scheme and he could be a great security blanket/check down for Wilson.

It’s so weird that the Jets just haven’t risen consistently in more than 50 years. So difficult to change how the team is perceived, the team’s culture, the stigma attached to the Jets as an organization.
Because they have had many players and coaches that thrived before and after being with the Jets. And, the Jets have had some glimmers of great possibilities and even dominance. But, always a flash in the pan, a flicker of hope.
Watched the great Joe Namath, Emerson Boozer, Matt Snell, Don Maynard, George Sauer, Randy Rasmussen, Rich Castor, Jerome Barkum, John Riggins. (beast with speed)
I have been a Jets fan since the 60’s and as a kid, bought cheap seats and enjoyed them in Shea Stadium. Always went to their preseason finale against the Giants at the Yale Bowl in New Haven, Connecticut. Saw Joe Namath flabbergast the entire Bowl by running for a touchdown, gimpy, and dilapidated— stunning the defense, because late in his career he was so fragile. But, back then, the Jets were contenders.
But, have to admit, the Rex Ryan years were a lot of fun.
