Mike effin Lafleur

[Innocenti]

We talk about the problems that Zach Wilson is having and how we need to improve at qb. And I'm not disputing any of this. But the offense itself is suspect.

Lafleur blames himself for Wilson's regression in mechanics. Well he needs to blame himself for other things like poor WR deployment and incorrect WR progressions. It wasn't all Zach Wilson. And you can see that Mike White having similar problems as Wilson was. And the common denominator is Lafleur. If White and Wilson are making bad play calling, then Lafleur needs to call the plays from the booth.

Joe Douglas said that this year's goal was to play meaningful games in December but that was setting the bar low. The Jets should be playing meaningful games in January and February. It's difficult to attain this goal when you're spotting 9-2 opponent 17 points. Yes Lafleur is a new oc who is still finding his way. Well this crap is already old, Lafleur should've found his way by now. The rest of the team is ahead of him and he may be the weakest link right now.

On another note, the path to victory today was fg, kick off, stop, and fg.

Yeah he cost us the game today.

I had no problem with the play calling today , none what so ever .

On both goal to goal situations I probably would have preferred to run the ball 4 straight times but I won’t complain about giving the QB who got us in position an opportunity to throw his team to the win .

There was always a dumb call that stalled a drive IMO

Every call that doesn’t work looks like a bad call. I had no problem with the calls today . We gotta get more consistent at catching the darn ball collectively as a team .

I agree about catching the ball, but LeFleur makes some "why" calls at the worst time.

If you've watched breakdowns of previous games with the overhead camera, you would see a ton of problems. I'm willing to bet that it's the same for today's game.

I’ve been saying this since last year but LaFleur calls plays like he’s playing Xbox. He seems completely oblivious to the personnel on the field.

Just look at our goal line plays today. We’re inches away and we can’t get not one run up the gut with Robinson? He’s our only downhill runner yet LaFleur seems completely obsessed with giving him runs to the outside.

57 passing attempts? Come on MAN!!!!!!

 

[TebowCan'tThrow]

Throwing a fade with less than a yard for a TD. Dumbest call I've ever seen.

 

[SackExchange]

This year should be about growth, for everyone. The Jets need to do better with their opportunities. But they outgained the second best team in the NFC, in their stadium, by 199 yards. To me, that is not reason to go nuts about how awful they are.

I am one that took the lose bad
I don’t see it how awful we are

I see it as :
my gosh we are really good
Going toe to toe on the road and could easily have won
That’s my disappointment
Not moving the bar
Just seeing it there within reach and couldn’t grab it
Ugh

I’m afraid that bar gets taken away next week
This is a tough spot
Oh well it’ll probably be down to the last week to see if we get in
Good enough

I felt the play calling was bad around the Goal line. Granted the Offensive line was not getting a push to punch it in and a couple of our WR couldn't catch the ball.

And making the throws. White played well yesterday but he missed a couple that would’ve been game changing. It wasn’t the WR’s. White just flat out missed them.

57 pass attempts were the result of being down so much from the first half.

He definitely missed a few throws. WR's made even more key drops. And the OC made many bonehead calls such as a fade inside the one.

I'm sorry................even with a couple of questionable calls..........play calling wasn't the problem. Player execution was the problem. Jets had this game in the bag and in the last few minutes of the game our offense, twice in the end zone, played like pussies and couldn't score a touch down. That's on the players not the coaches. You can lead a horse to water but you can't make him drink.

The Jets piled up almost 500 yards of offense, but got pushed around in the red zone. Every OC has a few calls they’d like back. Every single OC. All this criticism of Lefleur is misplaced.

I’ll say it again: punching the ball into the endzone is an attitude. And the Jets o-line lost most of those battles near the goal line. BAM was hit repeatedly behind or at the LOS.

We really could’ve used AVT yesterday. He’s by far our best run blocker.

Look I agree but we can all go back & say a call here or there could be done a different way. I would have run four times

Not shooting anybody and I think our offense has improved a lot, especially since White has been under center, but the fact of the matter is they let themselves get bullied in the red zone by a defense that isn't any better than ours. I just would like the blame to go where it should be and that's on the "O" line. Right now they are a playoff team so they better play like a playoff team or they won't be taking part in the playoffs unless you count being spectators as participants.
