Could Joe Douglas be gearing up for 1 more big time FA signing?

when Nasrildeen and Sherwood went down, and they were replaced by Quincy, the D definitely looked better.
it did - but it can be better and a sign of when that happens is when Quincy is replaced.........great effort guy, but I need to see more discipline in his play before I sign up for him as an answer.

a.) lotta truth in that post, @SackExchange.
b.) i have seen a changing of the seasons in regards to how the talking heads are speaking of us...ESPN aside.

I cannot imagine two good drafts and an improving team is enough to end the national mantra of SOJ.

Joe Douglas has proven himself, both in trades and the draft, to be one of the best GMs in the league. And yet there is still a perception of the Jets being dysfunctional. The whole SOJ thing isn't based on evidence, it's based on anti-Jets and anti-NY emotion.

He is still young. and perhaps will always be a chasing LB in the running game, but we can absolutely keep our fingers crossed he becomes a complete OLB.

Maybe, but this is where the football media play a huge role. If they keep pushing the SOJ narrative, despite what the Jets have done, it just keeps perpetuating the idea that the Jets are futile. They could have 10 home run drafts in a row, but some major elements in the football media will continue to push SOJ.

The Jets haters have a real impact on the team and its ability to both bring in and keep players.
sadly, and a lot of people don't realize this, sadly, a lot of this game is phycological. Winning makes players believe in themselves and winning begets more winning

losing is a disease much like syphilis or bubonic plague- The Natural

No. Too slow. I don't see how he would translate to this scheme. Especially with guards, you need guys who have a quick first step, can check playside and backside, and then get up to the second level. Guys need to have the kind of feet that can reach block and get on LBs. He is not that guy.

He is young and versatile, which is good. But I don't know if his feet fit the Jets.

LOL. Didn't the Natural (Robert Redford) get up and leave in the middle of that bullspit speech? I woulda too. Winners Win. Losers Lose. The problem is knowing which is which. I think JD may have a pretty good handle on that.

he did get up and leave. then he hit a few big home runs to win a few games and got the losers to believe they were winners because of it. gotta believe you will win or you probably wont.

I once asked my buddy that played in the nfl if bad teams went into the season expecting to win or if they knew they were bad. he said if you were bad, you knew it.

what do you think most Jets teams think going into week 1 of the season? hopefully this year is different

LOL. I gotta admit it I'm a fool like everyone else. Im like Tug. You Gotta Believe. Every year coming into the Season I think of having that one "can do no wrong" Season. You know that one Season were everything goes right, every bounce goes your way, as does every Call. That one Season where it just all goes right. I used to think that was luck. Now I know it comes from having an outstanding Coach,GM, and Organization. I think the Jets finally have that in JD and Saleh. Now all they have to do is build that Organization and remove the stigma that bad decisions and buffonery have placed on being a Jet. I believe these guys can do it. CAN'T WAIT.

He did. Got yelled at, and was threatened with being sent down to the minors.

I said last year prior to the season it all depends on how quickly the roster can understand their roles and learn the new system but warned everyone here that the majority of the roster were in their contract year so it was going to be more evaluation period and for the staff hoping most of the guys pan out. It was evident early they did not get through to Zach who struggled and tried to be the 'Hero Ball'. It is amazing to hear our Pod Guys like @Jets Talk 24/7 & @Jets Today and Green Bean, even NFL Chaos with Jeremy use that reference, it validates what I was saying. Last five games coming back from injury he realized three not one but three other quarterbacks excelled so if he buys in he could be the guy to take the offense over the top. Now this off season he has gotten the ultimate boarding pass to visit all his receivers, running backs and tight ends to work out with them. No news on him traveling to see his OLM but guarantee he has at least zoomed with them.

What bothers me only two OLM have gotten together and you wouldn't believe me that I know you guys won't be able to guess the duo? I let you guys try to guess.
