Here's a little insight as to how the return of V.J. Payne impacts the Jets from a cap persepctive.

Disagree & here’s why:
#Jets roster is loaded with young offensive talent. Team has 3 firsts that likely land in the top 15. Opportunity to draft & mold a young QB,
16 year playoff drought. A fanbase starving for a playoff game. The tools are here to win & tbh with the right offseason tweaks, I think they could be a playoff contender in 2027.
A coach that comes in here & ends the playoff-less streak is an instant hero. Think it’s perfect for somebody like McDermott just as it was for Parcells in 1997 when he took over a very talented one win team & got them to 9 wins his first year.

The fact that Sara even felt the need to make this comment is honestly ridiculous. The fact that there’s even a debate proves that most people overweight the receiving aspect of the tight end position.
In addition to the fact he was undoubtedly the better all-around TE, if he’d been healthy, his numbers likely would’ve been close enough where you don’t question who’s better. However, because the Patriots used him to his fullest potential, you’re going to hold stats that are just part of the puzzle against him for a larger part than you should.

$6 to help feed hundreds or thousands of kids per district, some of whom absolutely do not know if they're eating when they get home? Sign me up for 10x that per pay period.

WATCH: In an epic moment, Senator Warnock slams the billionaires who try to buy our elections:
“We need to see billionaires spending a whole lot less on our elections and spending a whole lot more on taxes.”
After the signing of Joseph Manjack IV, I have the Jets salary cap number for 2026 at $10,576,912, and their projected cap budget for 2027 at $84,619,985.
Second, we will convert the 2027 roster bonus and fifth-year option base salary into the following items:
2027 signing bonus: $7,009,575
2028 option bonus: $14,220,425
2028 base salary: $1.26 million
2027 cap savings: $1 million
2028 cap savings: $16,984,000

Everyone needs to stop saying this crap. There are way too many variables that change when you change the coaching staff to even justify an opinion on this topic. We only know that they ARE 2-6 with THIS STAFF. We CAN’T even remotely justify any opinion on what they would be with any others.

#Jets should strongly consider in-season extensions for Geno Smith & Dane Benton & offseason extensions for AD Mitchell, Braelon Allen, & Dylan Parham.

Anybody who says AG is worse than Kotite is either looking for attention, pushing an agenda, a prisoner of the moment, or simply wasn’t around back then.
This is not a defense of AG - who also isn’t worse than Lou Holtz who had #Jets singing college style rally songs in the locker room & didn’t even last a full season - it’s a reminder of how truly awful Kotite was.
That 1996 #Jets team went on a spending spree on offense. They had a roster full of young, talented players in their prime on both sides of the ball.
They won one game. The defense was ranked near the bottom of the league. The next year with almost an identical core, they won 9 & the defense went from bottom 5 to #6 in -#NFL.
And the locker room. Lotta not only lost it, he never had it.
One constant through Kotite’s tenure was a complete lack of respect from the players. He had a QB openly telling the press he couldn’t wait for the season to be over so he could leave. A WR who was so badly mistreated he blames Kotite for straight up ruining his career out of pure spite.
We really don’t have to do this thing where we pretend the latest guy is always the worst guy ever. AG has done a poor job. He’s not Kotite. He’s not Holtz. You don’t have to let current emotions lead you to false conclusions.
Glenn is worse than Kotite.
Sure, he'll win a few more games. But in the mid 90's a HC's ability to effectively communicate what he was thinking was far less important than it is today. No social media. No constant dissection.
Not only is Glenn a horrendous coach on game day--he's one of the least effective communicators I've heard in quite some time.
Never makes sense. Never inspires. Embarrassing.
I’ve been trying for the last few years to teach people how to think about the offseason, not from a fan perspective, but a front office one. They don’t have $100M+ in cap space. Here’s my projected real working number.
If the Jets really can’t get it right next year with having 100M+ in cap space and 3 first round picks where 2 might damn well be in the top 10, i truly have no hope for this team after that.
Numb to this shit.

Jets Fans ignore this “take” from @FB_FilmAnalysis and here’s why:
Flamed!? “Game Script?!” What “Film Analysis” are you watching?!?
#Jets had 4 series in 2nd half plus the last 27 sec series
3rd Qtr
Series 1:
3 Play Drive - Touchdown
“Raiders loved that?!”
Series 2:
Play 1 - Jets 28yd completion but penalty (holding)
Now 1st and 20… you know damn well you’re passing 3 straight times. Raiders make stop
Punt
4th Qtr
Series 3:
1st Dwn - Run
2nd Dwn - Run
3rd Dwn - False start/Incomplete pass
Punt
“Game Script?!?”
Series 4:
9 play drive - FG
All passes till they got to redzone.. tried a run and got stuffed on 1st dwn.
The game script was true… Jets were gashing Raiders on early down passes… there just wasn’t enough plays to run the ball more in 2nd half.
So with all due respect let’s be sure when we use words like “Flamed” or “Game Script” it makes sense according to your “Film Analysis”
