Sometimes bottoming out is better than staying on the treadmill of mediocrity for years and years.

You know this is why Rex was fired, right?

Rex took us to back to back AFC Championship Games, that's not mediocrity. He was fired after Idzik ruined the team.
So it turns out, Italian Seafood was right an everyone can go freak themselves.

No....the last 4 years of Rex's tenure was mediocre excrement.  Try and see past the 2 AFCCGs.


EDIT: Actually...6 years, if you include the turd sandwich he made up in Buffalo too.

The last 4 years Rex had here > everything since then

It's all kind of one muddled bowl of crap.

The Jets haven't been fun to watch since Fitzy won that Thursday game in Buffalo, and they had that fun post-game interview.

Next week, Fitz had 6 picks, he was mostly terrible from that point on, and that was all she wrote.

I wonder if Fitz and his agent (and the Jets) hadn't been such sticklers about his contract if things would have worked out differently.

Yeah, I recently had a rude reminder of how bad everything was in 2016. I think I had memory-holed that season.

Two of them were actually 8-8, his QBs the entire time he was here were Sanchez and Geno. Once you know the guy can win and win in the playoffs, you shouldn't be so quick to replace him. Because the next coach just might be terrible, and the one after that and the one after that.

Rex lucked into those 2 playoff years with Mangini's roster.  Once the roster became his, we stunk.  And then to make sure it wasn't an anomaly, he stunk in Buffalo right after.

So Mangini was a good coach then? He followed the exact same trajectory with less success in a shorter amount of time.

You still have to win the games. Rex beat Manning, Brady and Rivers on the road in the playoffs with Sanchez as his QB. Mangini had Favre and Pennington, never won a playoff game.

Both guys were dumb to take jobs in Cleveland and Buffalo, where nobody had won for a long time.

I liked Mangini. Dude knows how to build a roster. I think Cleveland gave him the short end of the stick too.

Tannenbaum was the GM for Mangini and Rex. We've had this conversation a million times.

It was nice getting to the AFCCG in back to back years....but you know what....nobody gives a freak about that, especially 10 years later.
