On a related note, I’m curious where the narrative comes from that Saleh is a good coach. I don’t necessarily disagree or anything, I haven’t seen enough from him to make an opinion one way or the other. But I get the same vibes from when the “Rivera is a good coach” hype train was rolling, especially the years Cam (and Luke and TD and Norman, etc) won him CotY.  It was obvious to anyone actually watching that Rivera was a terrible coach but the media and, by extension of the media, ignorant fans would parrot this idea endlessly until it just became generally accepted. Happens in many other cases as well, but I’m just wondering if this is another one of those or if there is actually something to back up the narrative that Saleh is a good coach.

He is probably really worried about the Aaron Rodgers injury.. its the second time Aaron has hurt his calf.

Calf strains can be difficult to overcome depending on severity.  I had one when I played soccer.  I took off 2 months to let it heal, felt great, came back and reinjured it almost right away.  I had to take 4 months off for it to finally heal.  Four months from now will be nearly end of the season.  It felt like someone inserted a hot knife into my calf.  Very painful.

Worth noting that his record with the Jets the past 2 years is actually 1 win worse than the Panthers' record the past 2 years, with most of that having Matt fuging Rhule coaching. Both teams have had equally shitty QBs I'd say so that's not a good excuse for Saleh.

Wasn't one of Rhule's few victories over the Jets? 🤔

This dude literally fuging described (in bold) what the jets did to us after we whooped them in the first practice and their narrative was we were soft for cancelling the 2nd practice for a legit reason with the rain. fug them, I hate the patriots with a passion but I hope the douchebag jets finish last in their division and miss the playoffs

That wasn't a Jets narrative. That was a Huddle narrative.

What is it about Aaron Rodgers that gets people going?

Nobody was talking about the Jets last season. Now they the biggest story in sports. All I see in Rodgers is a talented QB who has underachieved in the playoffs. If you look behind the hype he hasn't been to a SB in over a decade!

Guy gets more hype than Tom Brady.

He's kind of a douche

      Report: Panthers great Luke Kuechly being eyed for big TV job

      So the last guy who had the job got hired by his former team directly into a role he has no direct experience in?

      Hard to pass up millions for a couple of days work per week for a coaching gig in the NFL that is 60-80 hours each week during the season and a more relaxed 50 hours a week during the off season. Yeah, I'd love to see him as our DC but hard to see him giving up the cushy job there if he gets it. And he's going to be a great commentator for the network.

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      Really, I think that is where negotiations come in. If you've got a QB getting you to 10 wins but statistically he's not a great performer, then you say look you can take $22 million or you can try it on the market. Because let's face it, out there, any leadership skills that we're seeing aren't going to be on the table, it's just going to be performance and that lands him in the QB2 market, which is much, much less lucrative (although any of us would love that money).  No one is saying that Bryce will be a $50 million QB, barring something short of a miraculous jump. I'm just saying that if we are winning somehow with him at the helm, then it would be fuging stupid to dive back into the rookie pool all over again. Let's say we do hit the 10 win mark, heck, let's call it 11 and a second round in the playoffs. I think we can all say that would be a really uplifting result and one that should be doable if we have good play. What do we do then? Here's what I would offer if I were Morgan and Tepper. $25 million a year for 3 years, each year with up to $10 million in incentives for touchdowns, wins, playoff depth, being under 10 interceptions, completing a full season, passing yardage milestones, taking less than 15 sacks. Look, Bryce isn't a Ferrari, he isn't a Corvette, or a mid-level BMW. He's probably a new Toyota Sienna that will definitely get you somewhere and bring the whole team along with it, no fuss but not a lot of pizazz.  And really, it's about the destination, not about what drove you there.
