[@danacevedo4650]

As a big time Jets fan as from "82". The greatest coaching impact that paid immediate dividends was hiring a Super Bowl winning coach with a long winning history. That was obviously Bill Parcels who is now in the Hall of Fame. We never had opportunities to hire any good coaches because of bad timing and lack of availability. For the 1st time in our history we have the closest caliber coach equivalence in Mike McCarthy who only wants to coach for us and we pass on him for another coach with a losing record and with absolutely no history of winning anything. This team has been plagued with owners who don't care about winning and a administration which is a completely inept.

[@logicsfinest3471]

Dan Acevedo facts. Professional sports team owners don’t understand the sports that they own teams in. They are no different from most fans. Even fans who go to games don’t understand the mechanics of the sport, and owners certainly don’t. That’s why they hire “football/baseball/basketball/hockey people” who can evaluate talent and hire the right people to coach that talent. But like anything else in life, it’s mostly based on politics and not merit. Owners like what they hear and go with it. Choice was simple. Adam Gase or Mike McCarthy. If anyone, especially an owner who would rather part with a coach than a superstar QB, has an axe to grind, then they will badmouth a guy and politics says, he gets a bad name. Happens in every sport. It starts and ends with the owner. Just look at my NY Giants 😞

[@Tuddyboy11]

Mehta came out with an article the day before the Jets picked Gase praising him through the roof. He’s definitely a spokesperson for the team. Probably gets a free hot dog at the games just like the guy at the Post who never criticizes James Dolan after 20+ years of ineptitude.

[@artvandelay7687]

Even though he ultimately turned out to be right about Gase, Joe completely missed Manish's point at 7:44. Manish's point was that McCarthy winning a SB in 2010 is not necessarily an indicator that he will win another one for the Jets in the 2020's. What the hell does Vince Lombardi's success have to do with anything? Yes Joe, Vince's success in the 1960's would not necessarily make him a good hire for the Jets in 2019. There are a couple of limiting factors, one of them being that he's six feet under.

Not a hater here this is how I felt watching dude self implode and dividing our locker room. # Any given Sunday.

[@festushaggen2563]

As a long time Packer fan I can say McCarthy is an excellent coach. Giving Rodgers all the credit is wrong. The whole time MM was there, our GM had free agent-phobia. He had to coach rookies and 2-3 year players every year and still had them in the playoffs most of the time and a Superbowl. He's a great coach. The only knock being he can get conservative in the 4th quarter with a lead and the offense can be a little vanilla sometimes. So yeah, he had one of the greatest QB's we've seen but he also had one of the youngest and most inexperienced teams every year. The guy can coach. The Jets should dump Gase and get him now because someone else will next year for sure.

To be fair, it’s to this day considered one of the most baffling draft day falls of all time. There was zero linking between GB and Rodgers pre draft. It’s borderline inexplicable why he was still on the board when GB was on the clock. People point to the attitude but even that doesn’t really completely add up. It honestly felt like teams that didn’t do their homework on him because they didn’t think he’d be there so they kept passing.
