Yesterday, we follow up on a tweet from Adam Schefter that states, more change in New York.
00:08
Jets now have fired general manager Joe Douglas, sources tell ESPN.
00:12
Last month, head coach Robert Salah, now Douglas.
00:14
It's a complete reboot for the Jets.
00:17
Let's start here.
00:19
Joe Douglas being removed mid-season for the Jets, Dubsy.
00:22
In your mind, does that make any difference here on this complete reboot to get it started?
00:27
No, absolutely not.
00:29
I don't agree with the firing.
00:31
I don't agree with the timing.
00:33
I mean, this has been a disaster, a sinking ship to say the least.
00:37
And you look at some of the weapons and some of the achievements that we've seen from Douglas.
00:41
I mean, there's some really skilled and talented young players on that Jets roster.
00:46
Why are they not winning?
00:47
Well, there's a myriad of reasons.
00:50
You look at the quarterback turnover since 2019, they've had eight different starting quarterbacks.
00:55
That's been a disaster.
00:56
Robert Salah, I didn't think much of him as a head coach.
00:59
And what do we make of Aaron Rodgers?
01:01
I mean, he was returning this season at 40 years of age.
01:04
He missed last year.
01:05
You look at the three years prior to that, every single key metric was trending in the wrong direction.
01:11
The only number that was going up was the interceptions.
01:14
And they've continued to come up with these Band-Aid fixes this season,
01:19
bringing across every weapon and every friend that Aaron Rodgers could find.
01:23
And it hasn't worked out.
01:24
And imagine the pressure in this locker room, Donnie, and how toxic the environment would be.
01:29
Everyone's walking on eggshells.
01:31
This may not be the last piece to fall for the Jets going into the back half of the year.
01:35
So for Douglas and what we have seen since 2019, I don't think it's been the worst record for a GM.
01:42
I know it hasn't been a winning season with him since that tenure.
01:46
But I mean, I tell you what, I think there's a couple other people who need to have a hard look at themselves in the mirror
01:52
and try and explain why the Jets season hasn't fared so well.
01:56
So I don't agree with the timing.
01:57
I don't agree with the move, Donnie, and obviously not big on the Jets.
02:01
Nine and a half was their win total.
02:03
Thanks for last Sunday.
02:04
That was the first one that cashed for me in terms of big future.
02:07
So happy days.
