MJ you're very passionate and emphatic with all your posts. I hope you come around when you're proven wrong for each prediction you have made. Ryan has many flaws and is repeating the same mistakes he made here in buffalo.
Having said that, yes Woody made a big mistake hiring Idzik but I wouldn't call him a bad owner. He has tried to make us better. He has failed but his passion is there. Eventually he will get it right. I think he will soon.
Listen, it's all in how you are interpreting my words. I like Woody Johnson. Yes I do. But the fact is, Rex was made to walk the plank for the misdeeds of Woody himself. And yes, I do think that constitutes a bad owner. Have some honor, some code, some integrity. Step up to that podium and admit that YOU were wrong by hiring John Idzik. Admit that John Idzik porked Rex Ryan by not getting any secondary talent, meanwhile knowing that Rex needed that to run his defense. Anyone with half a brain knows what Rex needs to run his defense.
But instead, Woody gave into the pressure of blowing it all up when he knew he was complicit in Rex's downfall. He certainly didn't do it intentionally, but he still did do it. He also never accepted any responsibility for what happened.
Elias, I don't doubt anything you are saying. I am sure that Woody's heart is in the right place. For that, I never doubted Woody. But that still doesn't protect him from criticism. I'm just telling it like it is. I'm sorry if that rubs people the wrong way. But I really don't care either.
You do not want to tell it like it is because you like Woody and you want him to be protected. Well I'm doing the same here in reference to Rex Ryan.
