Rex Ryan and John Idzik Gone! Plus End of Season Assessment

So on Sunday afternoon the Jets got their 4th Win of the season in the final game in Miami. That's where I will start first. I think that win was actually a loss. The draft order was affected with that win. Now that does sound crazy, that I am routing for a loss for a player. I don't know why I think this but I do. I want a good draft pick and a good player from that pick. I also want a decent that isn't a defensive minded coach. There is that thing with Woody Johnson wanting to be involved in day to day activities for the Jets. That really boils my blood, because that is the number 1 problem with the Jets. This is the reason that the Cowboys haven't been relevant in recent years. Second both Rex Ryan and John Idzik are done in New York. I couldn't be happier with that news. Rex Ryan and John Idzik had separate meetings with Woody Johnson on Monday morning at 7:30 AM. I liked Rex Ryan as a coach for the first couple of years. The past 2 years I haven't been a fan of him I have to say. Something happened to him 2 years ago that made him different and that is when the flaws started showing for the Jets. Part of Rex's problem here in New York is that Idzik never gave him the players to succeed. That in turn makes the Quarterbacks Mark Sanchez ( Who is still a terrible quarterback, it wasn't the Jets) and the current single caller Geno Smith. Smith also in my opinion has played his last down in a regular season football for a while. For the 3rd year in a row the Jets will probably have another Quarterback controversy. Which is not a good thing.
The next step is signing a GM. Now Woody Johnson can look for a head coach and interview people for the job, but I think the new GM should hire the new Head Coach. The presser of the draft should not influence the hiring of the GM. The head coach should be an offensive guy, but the defense should still be a 3-4, because the team that whatever head coach is hired has a team that is set up to dominate as a 3-4 Scheme. The new offense should be something different and I think it will. Something along the lines of a Saints Spread scheme would complement the defense and the offense right now. If those 2 schemes are put in place the GM won't have to do as much work as he would and the coach would have happier players and possibly have a happy locker room.

Don't forget to follow on your way out!

The 2023 Offseason is Brian Cashman's Biggest Test Yet

Image
   Now that the World Series is over five days from now the offseason begins. With that in mind, this is the biggest offseason that Brian Cashman will have in his 25-year tenure as Yankee General Manager. For the first time since 2016 the Bronx Bombers watched the postseason from their couches, and they earned that right. Amazingly, this team finished over .500, although not that far above that mark. This iteration of the Bronx Bombers finish with the same record as that 2016 team—but the feeling with this squad feels different. Following the 2016 season, there was hope of the two power bats that would usher in the “Baby Bombers,” and in that offseason, the farm system was rated in the Top 10 in all of baseball. There was almost certainty that Brian Cashman would put a championship team around Aaron Judge, Gary Sanchez, Greg Bird, and Luis Severino that would be a title contender for years to come. There was hope. And that hope almost turned into reality. Almost. But, that was then

The Question going into the Trade Deadline for the New York Yankees

  There is a crossroads in the Bronx in between River and 161 st Street right now. As New York Yankee Manager Aaron Boone likes to put it “[the season] is right in front of them.” The second half of the season is for the taking. As we move into the dog days of summer the Bronx Bombers are nine games out of the division and now a game and a half out of the AL Wild Card race following a disappointing first series in Colorado. With that, the historic starting Tampa Bay Rays have cooled off, going 3-7 before the break while showing signs of being mortal. Baltimore, who has been keeping pace with Tampa, didn’t look like a Superpower when they split against the Yankees two series before the break. The AL East is still a Spartan Training Facility with every team above .500, the Orioles holding the first Wild Card spot, and the “struggling” Boston Red Sox tied the Yankees in the Wild Card race. And unlike Robin Williams in Mrs. Doubtfire, help is not on the way. Aaron Judge’s toe is still a m

The Answer for the Mets

  As Yogi Berra would say “it’s déjà vu all over again.” Buck Showalter is an all too familiar place. The 67-year-old manager has taken a time machine back to 2012. No, he is not managing in Baltimore anymore, however that’s what it feels like the end of Showalter’s Oriole tenure in Queens right now. The Mets simply can’t get out of their own way. With Pete Alonso likely headed to the Injured List, the Mets scored 10 runs last night in Atlanta. 10 runs on the heels of back-to-back gut-wrenching losses at the hands of the team that has foiled the Mets for the better part of almost three decades, the Atlanta Braves. 10 runs with their hired ace, Justin Verlander, who was looking to put together good starts consecutively for the first time all season. The Mets looked like they were about to exercise some demons in Atlanta last night, and then, the other shoe dropped. It wasn’t good enough. Again. Last night, I wrote that the Mets season was on the line with Verlander toeing the slab. Well
