I know what your saying Big D. I didn't expect Jets to be better than 8-8 or 9-7 & happy at 10-6. But I'm very sick over Gailey & sick of watching Gailey not using the talent. I don't know why Jets cant get a good OC. Gailey tells Defenses its a run or pass play, doesn't use TE's at all & in crucial 3rd downs he goes to unknown proven talent to make big plays. Marshall-Decker-Ivory-Cumberland & Powell in passing to are all crucial & best to get 3rd downs. I'm not sure if I'm putting all my Jets gear & memorabilia away I've collected since 69 til they get rid of Gailey. I'll wait til I cooled off before doing that. But I've done it before when Jets have a bad Coach & dont watch much football. That's hard when you don't have another team in NFL you like. Even harder when your team is across the Nation & I'm surrounded by Seahawks & Raiders fans laughing at Jets collapsing. But Jets is my team since 1969.

Really your blaming gailey this is so laughable it is not funny. After the shit OC's/coach''s we have had this is one of the better ones minus special teams in a long long long time.

Its comical that you don't see the many blunders of Gailey Offense. Do you think putting Jets Defense on the field yesterday in 1st quarter for 9 mins. is ok? Do you really feel there is no reason to use our TE's all season? Do you really feel showing Defenses if its a run or pass play with no RB or 1 WR on the field? There is a reason why no one hired Gailey, he just isn't a good Coach. Maybe look at todays teams like Pats who know how to use TE's & call crucial 3rd down plays to their best players. Are you really Blaming Jets Defense for that loss yesterday? Really? Gailey might as well had Fitz out there with sticks & bottle caps drawing in the dirt.

I guess you liked Hackett Schitty Sparano and Mahty better.

Seriously folks Gailey gets no blame

We had one of the worst offenses in the NFL

This year it was one of the best

Decker couldnt do anything last year with Mahty and Geno

This year he went over 1000 yards again with a bunch of TDs. Marshall was a BEAST and Gailey got useful play from Thompkins and Enunwa

Tight ends for receiving?? We have Cumbersome and Davis two TEs that make Becht look like a good receiver

Look, this is one of the best Offenses I've ever seen with talent in the NFL. So then whats the issue in your opinions? Why aren't Jets in Playoffs? Lack of talent on Offense in your eyes? If you took Pat OC & gave him this Roster of talent Jets would be for sure going to the super bowl. If Jets have the Players to put up these kind of numbers then its poor scheming by OC & use of the talent in crucial situations. I cant blame the good Players on Offense for the play calling that puts them in tough spots.

I hear you BigDan and can't blame you. I wish I could do the same but I just can't. These bastards suck me in every year and I fall for it everytime with hope, REAL hope and not REALism of what this team really is for that year. I've been a Jets fan since 1982 and I was 12 years old then and haven't look back since. I kick myself in the ass all the time for it and ask why but I guess I just can't give up on them. I respect how you feel and applaud it and I wish I could the same but I know I can't. See or hear from you at the beginning of next season my Jets faithful friend.

I've edited my first post...

how bout just give one more year... this team finally has everything it needs to be successful...

a team manager and motivator as a head coach that is even keeled in front of the camera...

great nucleus of potential on this roster...

a under rated now front office that are full of football people compared to years past...

a turnaround from 4-12 to 10-6 that could even be better next year and years on...

don't need to believe me but just look at all the things that happened this year, has to be a breathe of fresh air compared to the last six years of a toe fetish...

okay everyone don't jump down [MENTION=290]gastineau[/MENTION]'s throat he is entitled to his opinion and he does have a case... Gailey has a proven track record for being to aggressive and predictive in his game planning as this year was no exception... But against gas, I have to say we found pieces that we had all along evolve their talents in his scheme which actually was very productive statistical which most would say is nothing without earning a trip to the playoffs...

this team was successful statistically breaking many team records... they are one or two players in all three phases away from being that good of a team...

for Gailey and his offense we need another Bilal Powell type RB to tandem him with, we must retain Bilal Powell this off season... We need to find a 3rd receiver that in this system can be the #2 next to Brandon Marshall which will allow Eric Decker to be that slot receiver that he was prominently playing all season...

Devin Smith needs a full year of being inactive to work on his craft... Yet again he won't have an off season to develop with another injury hope this is not a yearly thing with his durability...

Jeremy Kerley is or should be gone... Chris Owusu for his health should NOT be retained even though he has soooooooooo much potential... Kenbrell Thompkins should get a RFA tender to at least a training camp invite, then a chance to make preseason roster no guarantees...

So after this position is resolved then they can consider what to do with TE/SE/BE or H Back role... Believe Enunwa has earned his role, so they need to build it out some... Maybe Wes Saxton and/or free agent... Will Amaro be here, who knows maybe not...

But all in all even tho Gailey wasn't the cause of our miss fires he could of been better with his play calling... But he did earn himself another year regardless how certain people feel about said coaches or players it is fair to say they did enough this year...

I love you gas! I really do but Chan is not the problem. Is he the best no but the above quote is spot on. Look I don't see where all this O talent is????? A loser Qb a Drifter WR & Chan takes them & makes an O out of them. We had no TE None!!!! We have had hurt backs & he turned around Powell. The OL short on talent played better as a group.

So I was pleased with the O .....they need more soldiers to fight with........We have zero WR's after the first two. Kerley stinks!

As far as Done with the team.......This is the fun part.....growing into a super power.......once you are there half the fun is gone.....It is building it that is the fun folks.

I think he did a good job with less talent than you think they have on O.

I totally understand, big dan, this franchise sucks the life out of you, and the older you get, the harder it gets to endure. When you are younger its easy to brush off excruciating losses like yesterday and say "we'll get'em next year", because your life is seemingly filled with next years, but as you get older and your own mortality comes into focus, you do start to wonder why you are wasting so much of the little time you have left on a team that brings you nothing but heartbreak year after year, and there is definitely a natural impulse to say I'll still follow the team IN SEASON, just not as religiously as I used too. To be perfectly honest, I'm not nearly as consumed with this team as I was in my younger days, to an extent I've already pulled back some. Admittedly this year pulled me back in to where I became heavily invested in the outcome again, but of course it ended the way it always ends for this franchise. Once again the reward for caring was a swift kick in the balls, so I COMPLETELY understand where you are coming from, I feel the exact same way today, still a Jets fan, will be till they put me in the ground, but once again I have far less motivation to follow the day to day activities to the same fanatical degree I did as a younger man.

if you took Pats OC and gave them these guys - and no Brady - they would for sure go to Super Bowl? puh-lease

Josh McDaniel before he returned to the Pats - head coach in denver - coaching some talent - even a young Brandon Marshall.....didnt do very well

see for example

I didn't have high expectations this year, so, I'm actually pumped about the off season to see what MM and TB come up with.
