But even I, in my worst case scenario imagination, didn’t see this coming.
And I humbly suggest they’ll lose one more game.
What’s wild about this is the timing.
Fire the head coach?
They’ve checked that box.
Make a switch at offensive coordinator?
There’s only one logical explanation.
Ownership needs a Fall Guy.
They need a fall guy to take the heat for the Aaron Rodgers trade fiasco.
And all the acquisitions they made on Rodgers' behalf.
From the recently demoted Nathaniel Hackett to Allen Lazard to Davante Adams to a half dozen others.
Which the entire organization seemed to be on board with, because it’s what Rodgers wanted.
And since the spring of 2023, anything he has said goes.
Anything he wanted, the got.
But in a much broader sense, this goes far beyond Douglas, Robert Saleh and even Rodgers.
Those three merely adopted the Jets' dark.
Woody Johnson wasbornto it.Moldedby it.
If his franchise ever saw the light, he’d find it blinding.
Let’s not forget after all, what was going on before Douglas was hired.
His predecessor Mike Maccagnan was allowed to draft Sam Darnold to be the Jets latest franchise quarterback.
This is a dysfunction personified.
Bedlam, writ large.
Pandemonium in football front office form.
Its one of those the living envy the dead scenarios.
And who was put in charge of the GM search?
Who two years later, fired Gase and hired Saleh.
Then mortgaged the future to bring in Rodgers.
Now Rodgers has seen to it that both are gone.
And the whole dysfunctional mess will perpetuate itself further.
It couldn’t happen to a better franchise.
The Jets need to keep on Jetsing.
