NFL Insider Tom Pelissero on Owner Woody Johnson’s Role in Jets’ Disarray | The Rich Eisen Show

[@davidconnor5874]

Tom carrying ALLLLLLLLL the water for Woody Johnson on this one. Don't let that distract your from the fact the quote was never refuted. He said that stupid s*** 100%.

[@saw12367]

He's an insider with zero inside information....

[@jeremybeckerman2624]

It doesn't have to be refuted to be false.

[@davidconnor5874]

@jeremybeckerman2624 you must not have heard Tom's full statement. He admits that Woody Johnson said this.

[@1928dman]

He was carrying water for the giants earlier. Rich asked him how much saquon was offered originally by the giants he goes "id have to check my notes" despite the whole thing being about how the giants did their due dilegence trying to sign him

[@1928dman]

​@saw12367 thats not true

[@Hallplante]

NFL employee becomes apologist for NFL owner. Shock!

[@HondoHoss77]

F**k what the NFL media circus has become…

[@PlyrMava.]

Woody's mental instability, egotistical behavior, and shady business dealings makes him the perfect fit for this circus of an incoming administration

[@Idlewyld]

14 straight years with no playoffs. That's obviously an owner problem.

[@Johnnyboy000]

I don't care about the context. If you're referencing the madden rating of an NFL player, despite knowing the rating system is complete BS, I can't take you seriously as a decision maker. The Jets will NEVER win with the Johnson family in control.

[@Jrodsly]

Exactly. You should not be letting your teenage sons influence your decision making regarding a football team you own, especially when that influence is from a video game that hasn't been good since before your sons were even alive. I don't get how anyone could be carrying Woody's water on this and expect it to look good.

[@StOscar]

I'm surprised that Pelissero didn't refer to Woody Johnson as Ambassador Johnson.

[@sturm7130]

Someone needs to tell Woody ambASSador is spelt similar to embarrASSment 😂😂😂

[@SL45429]

What the hell was that?! “Tom is a 17yr old running the Jets?” “Yeah, well, Woody’s the owner and he can do whatever he wants cuz it’s His Team so meh!” 😅😂 oh, brother

[@jdicke1017]

Why does Pelissero bend the knee to Woody all the time? Sorry, even if it's not true, perception is reality, Tom.

[@MrMytube60]

Woody would get him barred from the locker room!

[@ts99z28]

He probably has some good connections that he would like to keep happy.

[@jerodgraham6623]

No, reality is reality. Btw I definitely think Woody is incredibly incompetent, that’s definitely true, the Jets results every year show that. I just hate that saying and always have, because it’s false.

[@PlyrMava.]

He probably gets paid by Woody to defend him in the media. Tom is kind of awful to listen to

[@yathaid]

He showed why in the video with a wink and nod by bringing up his NFL network mug. Woody is literally his boss!

[@lonesoldier4789]

I guess Woody is Tom's source with the jets

[@Ozzie-in-CT]

The reason insiders get all that access is because there is expected reciprocity. Just listen to Tom’s comments on Broncos/Russ and you see that reciprocity. Tom P just rubs me the wrong way.

[@robertpapalia]

Unless Woody Johnson sells the Jets they never will have any kind of success.

[@jonathancruz7848]

He doesn’t technically need to sell - but he does absolutely need to go on a beach somewhere , put those brats of his in boarding school ( idk how old they are ) , and go kick his feet up on a beach somewhere while the Gm he hires runs things and when the day comes they’re back in the playoffs , give old woody a phone call and give him the news … just make sure he stays on whatever cruise or beach he’s on 😂😂

[@larkinstube]

lol he really bending over backwards to defend Woody while pretending to not defend him

[@Neb2117]

The reason the Packers have the all time record for post season appearances is they don’t answer to an egotistical owner. In Green Bay it’s all about football. The way they develop quarterbacks is genius.

[@johnhamilton8636]

Johnson must have something on Pelissero....pathetic

[@johndoe09876]

Woody thinks about costs instead of thinking about value.

[@silvergold2140]

Rich, I really do feel for the real jets fans I feel a lot of pity for them.. Except for you, and Mike Greenburg... you two have a platform.. both of you tried to ram the jets down our throats never once admitting they were not a good team at all.. with or without Rogers the jets suck

[@nickh2935]

Seriously rich is just as culpable for this bs. This dude put the jets in his top ten in the offseason.

[@michaelprenez-isbell8672]

Tom is such a pro. I mean that in the best possible way.

[@yl9941]

I hope no good coaches go to the Jets. That is a shitty franchise that buries talents and kills football spirit in players especially those top picks they unfairly get every season. Let that franchise sink to the bottom.

[@ericwelber2899]

As long as Woody is owner the Jets will suck. Those who dont learn from history are doomed to repeat it. 14 years without playoffs.

[@todd.goslin6190]

Nice angling of the Elvis Christmas album in the background there.

[@bryanweis]

Best part of this interview

[@Gemni65]

Sounds like a bunch of chickens squawking

[@dylantereman9218]

Imagine FOUR separate people debunking the Madden part of the story. Damage was already done, media loves to run with it. (This is NOT a Woody defense for the weirdos)

[@johndoe09876]

Thinking the Broncos would take Lazard off their hands is more ludicrous than the Madden theory. The Broncos had their own cap issues. They wouldn't want anything to do with helping the Jets offload one of their problems.

[@silvergold2140]

Woody is just more proof that the nfl needs to do a full mental evaluation on every owner, to go along with Jerry Jones, David Tepper, The Bears, Giants, Browns Owners.. and make changes as needed

[@coachjdc]

stop picking on the billionaires 😆

[@mikeinla6922]

Reading a Jet press release, pathetic

[@trhediger]

Unfortunately, neither Tom or Woody say declaratively what was said in context. Without that information, and with such a time decay from the original story, all of this is bull s$@%

[@johndoe09876]

Maybe Woody should stop with all the jokes when his franchise is the laughing stock of the league and get serious about fixing the real problems in his organization.

[@jonathandoyle2177]

Guess we don't need to believe anything Peliserro says again

[@jeffvansloten1897]

Woody apologist

[@yragoam6886]

Sounds like Tom knows where his bread is buttered.

[@TheAcgtrs]

I still wonder if Bill B’s resignation napkin is in the HOF… 😂

[@sturm7130]

Inherited wealth pushing money down the toilet. A BIG TOILET 😂😂😂😂😂
