To think, he may cap off his hall of fame career by going 0-16 with the Jets. What a legacy to leave.

I’d love it if they cut CJ Mosley.. That guy would be fantastic in a Bills uni.. Let Milano walk.. Roll in Mosley, Edmunds and Klein as our starters next year! Poifect!

[Chandler#81]

OMG! Jets are trying to be the worst single season team in history! Back to back desperation Hail Mary attempts by the Raiders, both of which uncontested. First was overthrown, then Carr threw complete to a wide open WR to win. 

 

We’ve had very bad years, but nothing like this!  Legendary!

This is an on purpose tank.

Unreal - terrible coaching and just plain dumb.

What was that CB thinking...

I actually almost feel bad for the Jets.  Almost.

He looks a lot better with a beard,

 

One thing he did not say was about working with his QB during offseason to make him better.

 

Coach Diabolical worked with Josh Allen a lot during off-season and his remote work seems to be better than his in person work.

He seems to get spur of the moment ideas, calls up Allen and discusses them and if they still seem practical gets to work during off-season including talking with college personnel.

 

You do know that the coaches are not allowed to work with the players during the off season, yes?

Just culled from the Gang Green fan forum regarding Mr. Williams:

 

"Why on earth would the Jets keep this bloviating narcissistic windbag? It's like if you could dredge the Ryan family's personality pool of all of its worst qualities, the net would contain a big slimy wad of Gregg Williams.

No thank you."

It’s making the rounds on social media that Gregg Williams called that defense on purpose to deliberately surrender a TD - thus protecting their #1 draft status.  
 

I have a hard time believing it because what would be his motivation?  He’s getting fired at the end of the season.
 

It’s more likely severe incompetence than that an elaborate plan to point shave.  But how funny would it be if Williams orchestrated this because he thinks it would endear him to a job next year? 😂😂😂😂

is there a limit to how much contact they can have?  I’ve heard many Bills players talk about how Coach Daboll will FaceTime players all the time.  That might be the point of that post

How ya let a guy like Ruggs go 1/1 on a fly pattern is a joke with that much time left. NFL should look into this LOLOLOL

They can socialize all they want.  I don't think there's a limit, but....

They had virtual OTAs.  If they changed the rules to allow offseason professional contact between players and coaches, would you be able to point me at that?  Interested.  Thanks.

 

[SinceThe70s]

NY/NJ sports radio would be a lot more entertaining tomorrow if Joe Benigno hadn't retired. I wonder if he'll call in.

[78thealltimegreat]

My goodness I know Henry Ruggs is fast but that DB literally just let him go right past him it literally looked like the Jets where point shaving out there 

[Augie]

Players and coaches don’t tank. 

 

 

PERIOD. 

 

 

 

Front office?  That’s another story.

Not just that - what DB bites on a 20 yd cut double move with 5 seconds left in the game when they have no timeouts? You KNOW he's going to the endzone, in what world would you bite on that move?

Someone on one of the broadcasts basically mentioned that down the stretch even on the previous drive that the Jets were basically playing the same defense. Essentially giving the Raiders opportunity after opportunity to make the right play call and pass that could pull out the win. Of course the players will always play hard, but I wouldn't put it past someone like Greg to basically intentionally put his secondary in bad situations to try to ensure a loss. 

[Warcodered]

It is an interesting question can a team full of vaguely NFL players and coaches really play that bad and it not be on purpose.

 It's certainly very possible that management and ownership have made it very clear that at 0-11 they must land the first pick. In what ways they have made that clear to Greg and/or Gase who knows. You can't just go out there and completely lay an egg. Players won't do that. He's still calling plays. But it didn't seem like he was putting his players in good spots on the final TD possession or the one before it. 

 

He certainly doesn't have much to gain by winning either.

Trying to win is his job. He has zero incentive to lose for a top pick as neither he nor Gase will be there next season.

 

The Jets are really just that bad.

But in the grand scheme of things is it a resume builder to have 1-15 on your resume instead of 0-16? Greg has a LONG resume. Winning or losing his 12th game in a 0-11 season wasn't going to change his resume and increase or decrease his chance for a coordinating or assistant gig next season.

[Bob in STL]

The CB play was horrendous, you give him that move 20 yards down field and play the deep ball - chalk that up to a bad player, the Jets have lots of them.  Worse, where was the deep safety help?   How can you not have safeties deep on that down and distance?  Greggo sends 7 pass rushers right from the snap and then an 8th on top of that.  
 

Greggo with another bad call?   He is a complete bum.  A total moron that showed no respect as usual.

It won’t, that’s true. But it’s a stretch for me that they would have stood up on 4th and goal the drive before just to lay down at the most obvious moment. I also don’t see Jets brass bribing the staff to throw games. Too conspiratorial.

 

In all likelihood Douglas realized the best bet for the #1 overall was keeping everything intact to the end of the season. Jets are just that bad.

[Malazan]

Why would Gregg Williams intentionally tank? He's not going to be there next season even if they keep Gase for some reason. At most, he may have have figured, "***** it, and called such an aggressive play"

 

However, it shows that a heavy blitz on a hail mary is probably not the right call. 

[Norcalbillsfan]

Anyone else worried the jets draft lawrence and he turns out to be great, then the patriots get darnold or Wentz and they succeed under good coaching? I know slim chances but these could happen.

That was not a Hail Mary.  It was a deep ball to you your best receiver who was inexplicably left in single coverage against a marginal CB.

Except for the Bills. LOL. Anything but 3-5 guys in the end zone waiting for the receiver and ball.

This is probably true and as close of an answer as to "did the Jets intentionally throw the game"? No. But they certainly were far more aggressive and risk taking then an average 5-6 team would have been. Carr really should have connected on several passes for TD's the drive before as well. But his throws were off the mark. A couple because of the extra pressure but still he should have gotten a couple there.  Greg likely doesn't make the same play calls if they are not 0-11. 

[Doc Brown]

I'm sure the owners thought about telling this coaching staff to tank but they figured they'd pry screw that up too.

[Rc2catch]

Owners I’m sure would like to tank. Shoot maybe even the coaches are fine with it since this might be the end for some of them. But the players? No way. The players are never going to buy into a tank. That corner who got burned today is playing the best he can to land a job next year and get paid. I can’t possibly believe any fringe roster kinda player is going to embrace possibly ruining their film and chance at a new deal 

[billsfan714]

There hasn't been a tank this obvious since the Pens and Mario.   AFC East gonna have two guys who have won national championships and Josh......Pats to be determined.

His resume?

 

If this continues, he will add to his "resume" by being the defensive coordinator on two 0-16 teams, and there will have only been three.

 

Bountygate....By far the most obnoxious, blowhard individual to ever appear on "Hard Knocks," and a history of coaching cheap shot defenses that seem to delight in injuring people.

 

Some resume.
