If you give a child a hammer and that child starts banging holes in the wall and you continually watch as the child bangs holes in the wall, and you do nothing about it, whose fault is it the child or yours.

Substitue the child with the hammer to Saleh running the team as HC or Hackett attempting to run the offense as OC.

Who is responsible for this disaster, whether he likes it or not, it falls into Woody’s lap.

Unfortunately the way a professional football team is structured, you can fire the coach but you are then forced to hire someone off of his staff . I can never recall a team firing its HC and replacing him with an outsider.

We know some fans will say Ulbrich or Middleton or Oden.

But are they the answer. Maybe only as interim.

The NFL has become an analytical league. Everything is based on numbers. The human element is not a consideration.

But Jet fans, do you need analytics to tell you that a Saleh coached team starts slow almost every game, do you need analytics to tell you that the Jets are an undisciplined team, do you need analytics to tell you that it appears a Saleh coached team never makes halftime adjustments.

Do you need analytics to tell you that Hackett is an absolutely terrible OC, do you need analytics to prove to you that Hackett’s schemes are

juvenile at best. The word innovator has never been used in the same sentence with the name Hackett whether the first name was Paul or Nate.

Football writer, Connor Rodgers asked this question after the game “What do they do all week”. I guess he was referring to Saleh and Hackett. Maybe someone could ask JD or Woody.

It is time for Woody to grab the hammer. Yes, the Jets are 2-3, the season is still salvageable for a shot at the playoffs but does any fan actually believe that.

Woody definitely needs to fire Hackett today. Taking the play calling away from him, will not eliminate the stink of his infantile game plans. Does that wording sound harsh, yes, but not as harsh as 55 cold winters without a Super Bowl appearance.

Carter is definitely a candidate for hammer time. He came here with a very questionable reputation, has that reputation change not really.

The Broncos blitzed the hell out of the Jets offense last week, did you notice any changes in the Jets blitz assignments yesterday, of course not. The NFL is a copy cat league, the Bills and Steelers front lines are already licking their chops to get after Rodgers. Have you seen anything that tells you it won’t happen.

Lastly Saleh is toast, his BS is done carrying him. It doesn’t matter if he loses the fans, it will matter when he loses the locker room.

Based on how this team has played this year, excluding the Pat game would it really matter if the Jets got rid of Saleh, Hackett and Carter this week. Could it get any more embarrassing, very doubtful. They play next Monday night, the extra day would let the new assignment get accustomed to their new responsibilities.

Hire Uhlbrich or Boyer as head coach

Downing as OC

Ben Wilkerson as offensive line coach.

Woody it is hammer time, this would probably be the only moves that you will make as Jet owner that will have a big majority of the fans endorsement.

For the sake of this season, use the hammer🔨 . This will only get worst if you let it fester.

Hiring Saleh with his “ all gas, no brakes” has turned out to be a mistake. He is not the first very good coordinator to fail as a coach.

But keeping him at this point is a recipe for a disaster.

It’s time to call in the receipts like Saleh once said.

Woody, your fan base is tired of watching the child hammer holes into the wall.
