Braylon Edwards traded to the Jets Mort on Mike and Mike just broke it

Pioli is going to have to have one hell of an off-season for me to be as excited as I was when he was hired.

He's really made some horrid decisions here.

I don't have a problem paying Casssel. But paying him when he has no receivers, no TE, no line is like putting a muscle car engine in an el camino that doesn't run.

Going to the 3-4 and hiring Clancy freaking Pendergast is another nonsense move. We have no linebackers. No nose guard. But yes, let's go round peg square hole all over again.

The right 53 can lick my taint.

This right 53 is going to be as popular as Carl's 5-year plan. I can feel it.

Pretty much...it's off to a smashing start that's for sure.

Im with you, except for the paying Cassel comment.

We held his rights. There was no upside to signing him to a long term deal before seeing him even come remotely close to the success he had in NE.

Show promise, get a long term deal.

Don't, and we're out nothing but the one year franchise number. That we're basically paying him anyway with the long term deal/guarantees.

You and I both know they were never going to approach Cassel that way, as soon as he was traded for he was their guy for the next 5 years atleast.

If you trade a 2 for a guy then don't draft Sanchez and let Cassel walk after 1 year Pioli looks like an incompetent moron and is made fun of.

Cassel will likely be this teams QB as long as Pioli is here, they're married.

In my eyes, this may be two strikes against Pioli. First was the mismanaged offensive line, now it's zero effort in making a play for a 26 year-old, proven receiver traded for nothing. Like Bad Guy said, if someone's giving up a player like this for next to nothing, you JUMP on that. But I'm not an NFL general manager, so what do I know...

It's his first season. I'm giving him plenty of time to improve the team. I'm still behind the guy, but while I'm supportive, I'm skeptical of these moves, or lack thereof. Better be one HELL of an offseason come late winter.

Absolutely all GM's have ego's that's the QB he chose as his guy, he will start for atleast 5 years regardless of performance.

I find it kind of comical that Cassel is getting garbage time TD's to make his stats look nice though...but that still doesn't change his abysmal yardage totals in blowouts.

Maybe next time, our FO will learn this lesson.

Well, it doesn't matter.

Mark Sanchez has no pocket presense, and isn't helping the Jets to wins.

I know this, cause the reerunian told me so.

God, we have the best fans in the NFL.

I love the strawman that gets put up if you dare question something.

Being unhappy with the moves he's made does not mean I'm calling him out to be canned.

God, we have some complete reeruns on here that can't read or comprehend anything.

I would definitely agree, but Haley doesn't give a shit about contract status. That's the only reason why I would disagree because of Todd's history with QBs.
