A Trainwreck Might Be Our Only Hope

Our only hope is that fans stop showing up for games. As long as everyone keeps packing the stadiums and the money keeps flowing into Jerry’s pockets nothing is going to change. Jerry needed to win when he first bought the team. He may want to win but he doesn’t need to win now. He has his stadium and fans keep filling it.

I'm looking at the 2023 draft and not seeing any generational type talent, particularly at QB.

There is very very little doubt that a train wreck is the best case scenario for many people on this board. And rightfully so.

You're probably right. Besides, anyone who puts a paper bag on their head at a game will probably be beaten and removed by security before they get on TV.

Oh, is the FBI working security at the games now?

There have been several train wrecks over the years under the Joneses watch...and NOTHING has changed.

True, but the last time the team was unwatchable for most football fans...and I mean the last time average fans would flip to a Jets game instead, we got Parcells. As bad as Garrett was, we were at least competitive for most of that time. In fact, people would tune in just to see how we would snatch defeat from the jaws of victory each week, and that was fine with Jerry.

Could be worse....could be the newly armed IRS with Sigs

Show of hands from those who would take a billy club to the stomach for the betterment of the team. I actually think I'd eat a club on live TV if it led to prosperity.

At this point 50% would consider getting sodomized with the Billy clubs for another Lombardi.....oh, the humanity

No, I'm not one to hope for a tank out of the gate. I lose sleep over tough losses, cried at a certain age after Emmitt fumbled on the way to the endzone against the Oilers way back when, am constantly worried we won't win another Super Bowl before I die, and I just signed up for an expensive streaming service just so I could watch my team after cutting cable last year.

So no, losing doesn't feel good. Knowing the season is over after week one is not fun. But a true fate awaits us...it gets worse. And it won't get better until 2025 at the earliest, and even then it will have to be by accident, because Daddy isn't doing anything he doesn't have to, and the Son is even worse. The only thing that will spur changes for the better, imo, is a season so bad that fans show up in paper bags. And I mean an epic failure, not some middling season where Rush pulls out one win and gets Jerry puffing out his chest. We have to lose, and lose hard. Even then it might not matter with Honest Offer Stevie waiting in the wings, but the one thing Jerry doesn't want to play with is perception. Now it took three years of despair for him to try something new with Parcells, so we need to do worse than middle-of-the-pack. Much, much worse. And that hurts to say, but it's the only way we aren't in this same position in 2023...and 24.

I agree. A top 10 pick and a stinker is the best thing for this team. This is what it takes for Jones to make proper changes.

New rule to be the winner of the Trophy
1. have the dumbest players in the NFL
2. dumbest owner
3. fattest head coach
4. woke fans
