Jon Gruden LOVES The New York Jets! Is He A Realistic Option For Head Coach?

[@audition8170]

Can you imagine next year the Jets having Chucky on the sidelines, Rodgers as QB, and Brick Johnson as the GM. The ratings would go through the roof. GO JETS!!

[@BillySBC]

I agree, when Gruden is on the opposite sideline you do have to respect him, that's not a rookie headcoach over there. Jets kind of need that right now.

[@jo0123]

Disaster in the making. Rodgers should be cut, let him do ayahausca full time.

[@davem5725]

Brick Johnson is a Hilarious Name

[@skeletonrebellion]

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@brandontammany6956]

Get rid of all the Johnson’s. Especially brick

[@Avoid_The_Clap-Jimmy_Dugan]

I remember Al Davis once said of him, “He has a shelf life ( like 3 years )” implying ( and then you tire of him.). But if he can install a hard working tough mentality , Let’s hire him !

[@brendanmccallion2350]

What's his Madden rating? 😅

[@HappyEddyMcGuire]

Gruden has made it clear throughout the year doing his great YT breakdowns how much he loves the Jets. He would be a great hire. Been saying it. Don't think that Hymie would let it happen tho.

[@dadecountymcfly5582]

If they look at gruden, then Rex Ryan deserves an interview too..

[@FatigueZ]

Rex could be his DC 😅

[@yoholmes273]

​@@FatigueZ CHucky is only guy with a big enough persona to actually hire Rex as DC. It's not actually a bad idea

[@WeskerLogan]

​@FatigueZ that would be insane enough to work

[@BillyBatsonMarvel]

That’s right hire your head coach and leave mine alone 🐬🆙

[@HarrisonHollers]

Rex is being interviewed I thought?

[@slowrunner14]

That would be a sensational story..Jon Gruden returning to HC with the Jets and reviving the franchise with Aaron and Davante still playing. Gruden then hires Rex Ryan as the DC and Asst. HC

[@kig24_]

That would be amazing

[@SWLion26]

Damn right.

[@jscrillax]

I wouldnt mind him coaching our team for real

[@franzlavigne3859]

I agree with #marcofluff. If we can't get Vrabel as a HC then we better get Gruden. He is a very smart football coach.

[@michaelstam-xz7ek]

I think I might put gruden ahead. He would get the most out of the offense and would know how to manage a game. Get a real DC and all set.

[@marcofluff]

Wow, if Vrabel says no, then absolutely !!

[@sifu9863]

Gruden clears Vrabel and it’s not even close.

[@vinnyb3978]

I wouldn't mind at all. Everyone hates us anyway. Might as well piss off Goodell as well lol

[@sifu9863]

I think we should definitely interview him at the very least. If he’s trying to get back into Head Coaching that is.

[@FatigueZ]

Gruden 🫱🏻🫲🏻 Rex

[@christopherphillips520]

I’d take him. I want a veteran coach. If it fails in 2 years we blow it up

[@Champ973NJ]

I been a jets fan all my fucking life and 40 years old!!!! Enough!!! Already

[@live2thefullest617]

I would love to have Gruden. He has the resume and balls to coach players hard and bring in a new culture. Reminds me of how Parcells viewed the 1996 1-15 Jets before he came and coached that same team to a 9-7 record in 1997.

[@skeletonrebellion]

After learning about the recent Athletic article about Woody Woodpecker and his Richie Rich sons stupidly interfering with the fragile Jets locker room culture, I got to give respect to Gruden's fire and passion along with his interest in wanting the Jets HC job because I sure as hell wouldn't want the job because of that type of dysfunction that's making the organization and the loyal fan base look like a punchline for a bad tailgating joke.

[@HarrisonHollers]

He doesn’t have a job. That reports makes the Jets less attractive to others. It’s almost like the perfect marriage.

[@Faceman005]

About time. I’ve been saying him forever now

[@BillySBC]

Yes he's a very good option for the Jets, can bring an experienced Staff, has a System to install, has lots of experience, Offense-based Headcoach, will bring the kind of stability, focus, and discipline the Jets need. Would be happy to have Gruden if the Jets signed him.

[@jetsngiantsfn]

Definitely bring him for a interview, pick his brain on Offensive plays and how Rodgers would work, what is his plan to groom a young QB, who will lead the defense back to dominance as DC by his choice

[@mizzo9]

Hey, he likes Fireman Ed! So he’s got that! How about teaming him with Rex as a DC? That would be fun at least! I do really like anyone that actually wants to be with us.

[@johnsassaman5460]

I love Chucky and miss seeing him with that scowl on the sideline.

[@warriorsspiritboxing6680]

Gruden would go from our historic rival HC (Raiders) to our HC... I think Gruden would at min install culture and consistency

[@stevenjames1138]

Vrabel > Gruden > Rex

[@PatrickAuricchiosr]

HC OC DC!!!

[@kig24_]

Gruden > Vrabel > Glenn

[@BillyBatsonMarvel]

🫵🏾🫡🐬🆙

[@HarrisonHollers]

@@kig24_I agree. Gruden has a Ring.

[@FatigueZ]

I like gruden for one reason. He has the reputation and the ego to work under the Johnsons. He has the clout that when he speaks maybe they will listen. When Douglas said he serves at the pleasure of the owners that was disgusting. Gruden is a guy who won't be afraid to tell woody or the kid, hey you don't know shit about football so shut the hell up, you hired me to do a job now get out the way and let me do my god damn job. I don't think there are many candidates that would either do that, or not get immediately fired after doing that. Who knows I can see Salehs last day as the coach going down that way 😅

[@ford289cid7]

The coach does serve at the pleasure of the owners. They use that expression in government all the time-how an appointed post "serves at the pleasure of the president", meaning he can fired any time for any reason. Douglas just stated the facts.

[@ladistar]

I'm down for some GrudenBall. This guy is an offensive genius and would know how to get the most out of this team.

[@louisperlman8030]

Ian, you nailed it at the 4:30 mark. The Jets need someone with a big enough personality to stand up to all of the stuff that the Jets put Saleh and JD thru. The situation is not great for the next few years. Maybe one more year of Rogers and no QB of the future in sight. A $65 million cap hit in 2026. Why would a first time head coach want this.?!?!?!?

[@frankwhite2230]

Gruden is an elite coach and leader, he is more qualified than anyone out there, Woody doesn't have the balls to hire someone of his caliber, that is why he would never hire Belichick, if I am Vrabel, I wait for the New England job.

[@joshuahall1581]

Nah, Mayo is safe for this year. This is a tank/rebuilding year for the Pats anyway. They are planning on either drafting McMillian or trading down to build around Maye.

[@aceventurap.d8482]

Why are we not considering the only head coach to take us close to a superbowl back to back seasons in Rex Ryan? My opinion is he's the only hc that really WANTS to be a jet. Sure, he had Sanchez, but imagine what he'd do if he had rodgers and this core. I'd be a very disappointed fan if it's not Ryan. Jets fan.

[@markharbour7469]

Can't hurt to interview the guy. And think of all the future Frank Caliendo impressions we'll get to see!😂

[@yoholmes273]

Chucky in the NY media market would be a real fun time. Surprised he hasnt already been interviewed to tell the truth

[@dylanhawthorne4842]

Gruden would be a significantly better hire than any of the other names being thrown around. Honestly I don’t think it’s even close.

[@Stephon-u9g]

Imagine Joh Gruden head coach, rex Ryan defensive coordinator and Aaron Rodgers on the jets

[@smichaelb1980]

Imagine more dysfunction than ever😂

[@ConkreteMan]

I thought this was a joke setup with the punchline of them all being the same age. 😂

[@rog8477]

Goodell can't prevent it.

[@abcortsen]

THE NEW GM HAS TO INTERVIEW HIM 🏉💰🏈

[@enricopolazzo33]

Best option

Would be great for the culture but also gives us a veteran coach who has won

[@M85619]

20 years ago...with another man's team

[@Tim_the_Enchanter]

My friend, Wally, loves the Jets, too. Can he be the coach?

[@SoulLessSage96]

Gruden makes more sense as a College Football Coach... his whole gruden grinders shtick would work better there than with professionals/grown men. Rex Ryan deserves more of a look then Gruden if they're gonna go that direction. I think personally the Jets best option is Vrabel but I think he's gonna be at the Raiders.

[@CaydenP8]

W video as always

[@edwardziff3274]

My wish list is Gruden as head coach Rex Ryan as defensive coordinator

[@prairietomoutdoors8360]

I could see the Jets hiring Gruden. He’s more of a splash guy that Woody would like. I wouldn’t mind the hiring myself. I feel Vrable is more steady less nonsense but Gruden wouldn’t take any crap from Rodgers either. I could see Rodgers coming back if Gruden was hired. I guess I could deal with it, otherwise I don’t want Rodgers back again. I don’t want Rex back. I feel Gruden got a raw deal in the NFL. He would bring excitement for sure and he’s an offensive minded coach. Just my thoughts. I’m tired of the drama from Rodgers and Woody. They need to get this right.

[@NYJetsForLife2024]

Hey correct me if im wrong...but isnt the reason why hes not a coach anymore and why he got fired was because their was proof he is racist? In his emails??

[@KKraemerPhoto]

Dream coaching staff for me is Vrabel HC, Gruden OC, Rex Ryan DC

[@JR_Donofrio]

I love gruden as a personality but as HC with all his baggage he would be much better off as OC Than HC. The guy knows how to win but will he fit in with the new spread offense with his west coast offense ways, I don’t know but he’s worth a flyer for sure

[@BillyBatsonMarvel]

Absolutely 🐬🆙 GO Jets..

[@outlaw6]

He's one of those leaders of men could possibly bring a culture but the only thing is he really hasn't had a winning season since the early 2000, but does have a good mind of football, not too sure if I want him as a head coach but I wouldn't mind if it did happen but I do have my concern

[@Jimmy-zf6cg]

Yes Jon Gruden for Head coach/ assistant GM

[@JohnDrummondPhoto]

Gruden's challenge is gonna be the racism. He would have to convince his locker room that his texts and emails from the past are behind him and don't reflect his current mentality. If he can do that, I'd be interested because there is no doubt he is a respected offensive mind.

[@Samscott516]

Can you imagine Rodgers under center every play no shotgun 😂

[@mondoseguendo6113]

There's no fucking way Gruden and Johnson are going to be a winning combination. A circle can only have one center and that's Woody. Gruden won't stand for that. No fucking way.

[@bill4419]

Ian Gruden is my first choice Go Jets (:

[@beefy1728]

I want Jon Gruden for Head Coach. I'll take Rex or Vrabel as Defensive Coordinator. Trade back in the first round of the draft 2 or 3 times to the 22nd pick or after - try to pick up 1 or 2 first rounders for next year, be prepared to trade out the first round entirely, get multiple picks through rounds 2 through 4 this year + next year if possible, trade back again once in the 2nd for more picks through rounds 3 through 5 for this year and next year if possible, and then roll it back again with Rodgers and the current squad. They need a right tackle. If the college prospects are crap then they'll need to get a stellar right tackle in free agency or through trade. An upgrade at center would be good too but it might be out of reach if the draft doesn't have NFL-caliber offensive linemen available.

[@batbat7043]

Can a handshake be verbal?😮

[@alwaysbeenbrand]

not entirely opposed to the possibility of brining in chucky for an interview but isn’t he still in a legal battle with the nfl? hard to imagine they want him back in the league.

[@Jay_Tee420]

I’d be open to it

[@cedmanstrong]

[@Fioreytacc]

I've been saying this for weeks

[@WeskerLogan]

[@CaydenP8]

Peep the Texans chiefs game in back

[@lightxgrenade]

It makes me happy that people can see the potential of this roster. But at the same time I think to myself - if you're looking to coach again in the NFL, you'd have to be an idiot to say something like "no I don't like the roster"; regardless of what team it is. In other words, what response could any of these guys have other than "I think it's a great roster" lol?

[@PGHJR002]

Player's attitudes have changed from balls to the wall win or die, to just survive until that big contract and you leave for the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. They don't want to hear do or die anymore, they want to hear JUST HANG ON until you get paid.

[@dashjames6172]

Heres what youre going to get hiring Jon Gruden: -Washed up vets to fill out the roster & bloated contracts -Head scratching misses in the Draft, *especially* the 1st round -He will be the GM/HC, like it or not -1998 playcalling always and forever -Second half collapses/never securing a lead -playing down to competition His greatest attribute IMHO, is his relationship with the QB. I could see him hitting it off with Aaron, but thats where it ends...they'll end up being washed up together, and you guys will be back here ripping your hair out, watch .....
