Without a great performance by Snow and the Defense we would have lost to the Jets today. Our 3rd down conversion and Redzone conversion is as horrible as last year.

I came here thinking I might be the only one thinking this …  

Two halves .  
Red Zone didn’t look good.  

The Jets aren’t good

Well since we are going to freak out over one game....in one game he has gotten solid improvement from a QB with league worst numbers a season ago.

I disagree,, it’s not just one game. 
This goes back to last year,, and because Darnald is hopefully better than Teddy, we weren’t inept on offense.

I mean, the last two years we have been investing heavily in players for Phil Snow. 

the foundation of our O (OL and QB), potentially could be the weakest combo in the entire NFL.   That could have something to do with why we struggle in scenarios…..where football is the most difficult.  Think too much is falling on a 2nd year OC to simply scheme around such a weak foundation just because their is skill position talent.

Brady had to understand that in the NFL, versus college, the team lining up on the other side of the ball is nearly your equal EVERY WEEK, so if your game plan suddenly hits a wall adjustments have to be made.  In college, especially against lesser teams, you can stubbornly stick to the game plan after some stalled drives and still end up being okay.  In the NFL, you have to make those decisions on the fly.  He FINALLY figured it out in the 4th quarter after it was almost too late.

Darnold threw for almost 300 yards and didn’t turn it over in the air. We didn’t hand it off to a fullback on 4th down. The ball was pushed downfield throughout the game. The TEs got some love today. CMac didn’t carry the team on his back like 2018. 
 

I guess some people are going to complain no matter what. 

I disagree. It’s not about whining for whining sake. We saw lots of improvements.  
But red zone still looked bad. Play call in the second half was bad. The Jets ARE NOT GOOD .  So yes, I didn’t see improvements from our offense corridnator .  Yes our players are better, but not his coaching.

Improvements are clock management. We didn’t have to call timeouts because we couldn’t get the play called.

He didn't call plays at LSU.  Let's get that cleared up right now.  He was just the passing game coordinator or some poo.

"And remember, Brady didn’t even call most of LSU’s plays this year. He called a lot of the red-zone plays, and he called some from the “empty” backfield sets and “compact” (bunched) formations that LSU ran (which meant he called several of the TD plays Monday)."

I thought the offense looked good in the first half, so maybe we can chalk it up to their halftime adjustments, particularly as their HC was an elite level DC for years.

 

 

Therein lies the problem.  If Brady had no clue that the Jets were going to dial up the pressure on Darnold being down several scores in the second half, then something is VERY wrong.  He should have anticipated it and has the foresight to adjust the game plan accordingly.

Ironically he sucks at that in the nfl.

We invested a good bit in offense. Teddy,Darnald ,Kept Moton, drafted Marshall Jr, Shi Smith,Tremble,Brown,Christensen. I mean its only been two years but outside of LT and LG we have a good unit on offense. Our Defense on the other hand lost a terrible amount of players and has been coached well and we have drafted well too.

      (Potential) Top 2026 HC Candidates

      By CarolinaLivin · Posted

      Made this list after viewing multiple articles. First thoughts: Would remove Bill, Arthur, and Josh McCown I already took out Deion and replaced him with Dan Lanning.

      (Potential) Top 2026 HC Candidates

      By CarolinaLivin · Posted

      Note: List is not in order of best-least   Inactive former head coaches Mike McCarthy He doesn't get enough credit for what he's done with the Packers (especially early on) and the Cowboys. His current ceiling might not be the highest, but he's won a Super Bowl and is a respected name to stabilize a franchise. Jon Gruden Gruden left the NFL on bad terms and is trying to regain the respect of some around (and outside of) the league.   Offensive coordinators Joe Brady, Buffalo Bills The Bills' offense undoubtedly got better since Brady took over, and his name is as hot right now as it was when he took over the Panthers' OC job in 2020. He's a part of the process to make Josh Allen, already an elite quarterback, into the MVP he has been. Todd Monken, Baltimore Ravens Monken was close to the top of last year's list, and he deserves credit for making Lamar Jackson an even better passing quarterback.  Mike Kafka, New York Giants Kafka has been mentioned as a future head coach for around four years now, even though the lack of collective success in New York doesn't help. Last year, he was promoted to assistant head coach in addition to his OC title to elevate his status. Kliff Kingsbury, Washington Commanders Kingsbury had a four-year stint as the Cardinals head coach, with limited success. However, he's at a different moment of his career, and the performance with the Commanders' offense is notable. John Morton, Detroit Lions The Lions lost Ben Johnson, and John Morton has done a good job early on to replace him, as the Lions still sit among the best offenses in the NFL. Josh McCown, Minnesota Vikings quarterbacks coach McCown is the only position coach in this year's list, and that's because he's been mentioned as a future head coach since he finished his playing days. He's had HC interviews. Josh Grizzard, Tampa Bay Buccaneers The Bucs have lost their OC to HC jobs two years in a row, with Panthers' Dave Canales and Jaguars' Liam Coen. And the offense is still a top 10 unit, which almost automatically puts Grizzard in the conversation. Arthur Smith, Pittsburgh Steelers Smith had a three-year stint with the Falcons, and it didn't go great. But he's a sharp offensive mind, and if he can take the most out of the Aaron Rodgers experience in Pittsburgh, his name will be around. Klint Kubiak, Seattle Seahawks Kubiak had a fast start with the Saints last year, but one he couldn't sustain due to multiple injuries throughout the roster—which included quarterback Derek Carr. This year, he's elevated the Seahawks' offense with Sam Darnold at quarterback, and his background under Kyle Shanahan and his dad Gary Kubiak is an interesting element.   Defensive coordinators Jesse Minter, Los Angeles Chargers With a top 5 defense, Minter is one of the hottest names in this cycle. He's still relatively young at 42, has strong NFL and college coaching experience, and his leadership style is impressive—learning behind Jim Harbaugh certainly helps. Brian Flores, Minnesota Vikings As a defensive mind, Flores is as good as anyone in the NFL. He would have to answer some questions about his failed time with the Dolphins as a head coach, but he's so consistently good at DC that new opportunities should arise. Jeff Hafley, Green Bay Packers A former college head coach at Boston College, Hafley has transformed the Packers' defense after failed experiences with previous coordinators. He's a great defensive mind and an excellent communicator. Robert Saleh, San Francisco 49ers Saleh's tenure with the Jets was bad, but it's hard to blame him too much. His defenses will always be at least solid, and a more stable franchise could offer him a better shot. Jim Schwartz, Cleveland Browns Schwartz is that type of DC that has already been a head coach a long time ago (Lions, between 2009 and 2013), and it feels like he's satisfied being a coordinator. But he's been so successful with the Browns that he at least deserves to be mentioned. Anthony Campanile, Jacksonville Jaguars Campanile was highly respected during his time with the Dolphins and Packers, and now he's making the most out of his early stages as the Jaguars DC. He's considered a strong leader. Vance Joseph, Denver Broncos Joseph had a failed stint as the Broncos head coach, but he's so respected that the franchise hired him back as a DC. And he's done an excellent job in this area. Chris Shula, Los Angeles Rams Sean McVay's coaching tree is as good as there is, and Shula has been with the Rams since McVay's original coaching staff was built in 2017. He's been promoted five times, including to DC in 2024. He's made the most out of a young defensive group.   College coaches Bill Belichick, North Carolina Nobody in the NFL wanted Belichick in 2024 and 2025, but that could always change if a franchise wants a strong leader for a short period of time. Steve Sarkisian, Texas Multiple college coaches are wanting to make the transition to the NFL, and Sarkisian could be the next one. His most recent NFL experience was as the Falcons offensive coordinator between 2017 and 2018. Matt Campbell, Iowa State Perceived as a program builder, Campbell has been mentioned as a potential NFL coach for years now. Lincoln Riley, USC Riley helped develop three first overall pick quarterbacks in Baker Mayfield, Kyler Murray, and Caleb Williams, so the blueprint of what he could do is there. Developing passers is his calling card. Ryan Day, Ohio State Day has had a lot of success in college, including a national championship in 2024. And he has experience in the NFL as a quarterbacks coach for the Eagles and 49ers under Chip Kelly. Dan Lanning, Oregon Head coach Dan Lanning has done a tremendous job with this football program. He has been the head coach since the 2022 season. Oregon went undefeated during the regular season last year and has a chance to lead them to another one this season. What are the odds that Lanning could potentially be getting interesting from other NFL teams this offseason?
