1. Until Woody Johnson sells the team the Jets will never know success.

2. The good news is Rodgers wants another year! lol

3. J E T S suck suck suck! Typical Jets season, the owner is a LOSER! The Jets desperately need a new owner, 10 years ago.

4. Dysfunctional organizations do dysfuntional things.

5. This is only a positive if everyone including Rodgers is gone after this season.

6. The Jets vs Browns for worst historical franchise

7. Meanwhile the biggest problem will still be QB next game

8. It seems the Jets are in free fall and imploding on a grand scale.

9. They are IDIOTS!!!. Fans should sell their tickets for what ever they can get for them and become hockey fans.

10. The one lone thing the Jets have done well in the last couple of years is draft well, so they fired the guy who was responsible for that… 🤣

11. Woody Johnson is one of a handful of owners that care more about the glitz & glamour of owning a team more than caring whether they compete in a Superbowl. He's raking in MILLIONS every weekend during the season whether his team wins or loses & could care less either way.

12. If I’m a Jets fan(what a nightmare to even imagine🫣) I’d be hoping this is a sign of a near full reboot of the team coming. Bring in a whole new front office and give them a mandate to blow it up. Jettison Rodgers after the season. See what you can get for Adams and look to offload other expensive older players and try and rebuild through the draft.

13. Lmao jets are 2/2 on firing people who aren’t the problem…

14. Even Jets fans want to see this team loose all the rest of all their games. It's fun to watch

15. Can't fire the owner.

16. Too bad the Jets can't fire their actual GM 😂

17. Rich rich rich rich…*shaking head* All I can say is best of luck to you and your team next year.

18. Talk about a dysfunctional organization,your team eisen, what are their Super Bowl chances now?

19. Never mind the madden curse. Hard knocks curse

20. If you thought Douglas would make it through the end of the season I'm sorry you have way too much faith in rational decisions coming from ownership

21. Rodgers continuing to consolidate his power. Wake up, Eisen!

22. RICH!!!! as a life long JETS fan, I would rather go 2-15 next 2 years than hire Bill Bellicheat!!!

23. Going back to the Rich Kotite logo just adds to all of this. The very logo summons thoughts of losers who lose.

24. Per my sources, GM said Rogers was the problem and got fired.

25. Well, it would seem the Jets have adopted the Cowboys strategy of getting a billionaire owner who ain't no football man, making the most important football decisions. It makes perfect sense – NOT! The one guy who needs to be fired is the starting QB – send him home to count his money…

26. Sometimes I wonder if the Jets owner is a patriots fan in disguise. Not that I'm complaining.

27. Here's the thing: If the Jets are going through a cultural shift and reset, this makes sense to me in a vacuum. That said, unless Rodgers goes as part of it, this doesn't make much sense to me.

28. Jags should scoop him up as of yesterday !!!

29. see the ‘22 Free agent class and you’ll see why

30. Has an NFL team ever in the history of the NFL succeeded when they do exactly what one player wants? Oh wait my bad, no NFL team has ever even considered doing that😂 this whole thing has seemed like a super desperate guy gives a hot chick ANYTHING she wants to date him. And even though she’s ruining everything around him, he’s still blindly buying her new purses.

31. Woody is going to beg Belichick to come to NY, isn't he

32. "I don't get it."

    And that's why you're a Jets Fan.

    Helen Keller could have told you she saw this coming.

    Jets deserve all of this.

33. he was in his last year of his contract

34. READY. FIRE. AIM.

35. Guess you don't understand football after all these decades Rich

36. What’s not to get? Six straight losing seasons.

37. "Who fires their GM in between weeks 11 and 12?"
    The J-E-T-S!, JETS, JETS, JETS!

38. FIRE EVERYBODY!

39. I'm starting to wonder if Rich curses NFL teams by taking a liking to them. He cursed my Raiders last year, and the Jets for eternity 😜.

40. Ready, fire, aim…

41. the point is that they want a real rebuild!! better you start from now rather than offseason,, this team gets nowhere this season! soon a new sheriff and his GM gonna be there… my hunch its gruden

42. Aaron Rogers cleaning house 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

43. They're a very bad team, with a poorly constructed roster. He was fired because he didnt do his job well.

44. Rich. It’s the JETS. Nuff said.

45. Can't believe there's still some Joe Douglas truthers out there like Rich. He was abysmal, there's no way to cover up the ineptitude. 6 years and he never even had a 500 record… It's insane that people defend it or call this 'head scratching'

46. Arron will be back and they will bring Mike McCarthy in as head coach.

47. PAUSES
    GRABS POPCORN

48. Rich's dejected "… Go ahead, hit it." in the first second is all we need.

49. ARod is ranked 23rd in thee League now. Time to cut bait with him.
