Look, I get it. We all came into this season with astronomical expectations — for many of us the highest of any season in our lifetime — and everyone’s understandably extremely frustrated. But sometimes you just gotta take your L.

The season has been an absolute disaster from the fourth play on. Everything that could possibly go wrong for us has. The fun thing for you all to do is be miserable and find someone to blame, but sometimes situations and circumstances just suck. It’s not any one person’s fault.

Every last word that comes out of Saleh’s mouth during press conferences isn’t why we’ve been awful. While Hackett has been objectively terrible, we still have to remind ourselves that after 8 got hurt we were left with a QB room made up of fringe NFL QB3s and have a totally depleted O-Line with eight different offensive line combinations and 12 starters to this point in the season — no unit has the kind of depth to sustain that many injuries for an extended period. So yeah Hackett can be A LOT better but what are we really working with here?

If you want to get on anyone it’s Joe Douglas for not entering the season with a serviceable backup behind a 39-year-old QB, but honestly it is what it is bro. MOVE ON.

Turn the page and buckle up because the foundation is still in place to TRY (emphasis on try) to make a run in 2024.

    Joe Douglas has had 4 years to improve our tackle situation. It’s time to move on from him. Moving on from Saleh/Hackett isn’t the worst idea as they have both come off as stubborn in a way that hurt the team this year.

    I appreciate this line of thinking, but if the foundation were in place, after 3 years this team would not be looking at another sub-.500 season.

    Rodgers would not have made a difference on this team.

    Saleh is a bad coach and Douglas is a bad GM.

    Don’t believe me? Look at their Win/Loss records.

    Last year we had no Rogers, a banged up O Line, a younger ZW, and our arguably best player Breece was out with an ACL injury. We were much better on offense last year than we are now with no rogers. Our defense is also better this year so there’s even less pressure on the offense.

    The problem is obvious. Rogers friends on and off the field that we brought in to appease a QB who never played for this team and still hasn’t really played for this team.

    Yeah the logic of some idiot who acts like this team hasn’t sucked absolute ass for 13 years and has had very limited pockets of success since 1969.

    GTFO

    The worst decision was hiring Hackett. A good backup with Hackett and we are still awful. Look at how terrible Russ looked last year. Idc if he’s Rodgers best friend hiring him to call plays was a huge mistake. Lazard sucks too. If rodgers was only going to come here because we hired and signed his bum ass friends then we should have looked elsewhere.

    Jets have no foundation on offense. A couple good players don’t add up to a foundation. Could they get there by next year? Maybe.

    I’m almost positive this is the same attitude the front office has and why nothing changes. Sad really

    I stopped reading after you said “sometimes you gotta take the L”… Sometimes? We’ve been taking the L for over a decade

    Sometimes you got to take the L? Dude we’ve been taking L’s since 2010. Most of us have come to accept the L’s as long as we’ve seemed mildly competitive but the offense has fallen into a place to likes no NFL team has ever seen before. Even bad teams have never been this bad. It’s embarrassing for us as fans. If we’re not going to fire Hackett, fine, but at least change play calling duties to someone else.
