Fitz was a leader in the locker room and just got handed a big deal to play QB this season. Bowles couldn't turn around and start Geno. Nevermind the fact that Geno isn't that great either. That was a disaster on the front office's part.

Where Bowles fucked up was the Rams game. Everyone knew Petty wasn't ready. The locker room wanted Fitz because he gave them the best chance to win. Instead he opted for Petty, they lost, and instead of 4 - 6 and heading into the bye with a win, they were 3 - 7 and riddled with questions about the QB position and feeling like they weren't doing their best to win.

Did Bowles make the best out of a bad situation? No. Did he make it worse? Perhaps. It was a shit situation and a lot of first time head coaches have struggled with similar issues. Belichick made the same miscue with Vinny Testeverde in Cleveland.

>This doesn't reflect on Bowles?

Was he supposed to find a fountain of youth? Older players decline. Maybe he should have seen it coming and given Revis more help from day 1 to prevent an embarrassment like AJ Green's dominance but I don't think Revis's battle with father time is on Bowles.

Rex's teams love playing for him and they play a stupid brand of football. It's fun to play for a guy who doesn't think dumb penalties are a reason to get yelled at (as he said this season.) And in his last year in NY and his first year in Buffalo, there were calls that the team had quit on him.

Bowles hasn't put his imprint on the team but it's been two years. How many of HIS guys does he have on this team? Are he and the front office on the same page?

Lovie lasted two years in Tampa Bay. And in Chicago, he had a defense with strong personalities. I'm not sure Bowles has that here.

In another post, you said Darron Lee looks good. Mo and Sheldon are worrisome but I'm not sure if that's them or Bowles. Sounds like Sheldon is a goner and he's playing like it. Did getting paid change Mo?

Maybe Bowles doesn't have the right attitude and needed a guy like Arians to fire people up. But I'm also not willing to say the front office isn't to blame. Besides Harris, do they have another leader?

This is a definite miscue. Just giving Chan Gailey the job was a mistake.

It's hard to handle a QB situation when you don't have any answers on the roster. Of course, this has been the story of the Jets forever.

>Now someone tell me…what IS Todd Bowles good at?

You cut Fitz slack for having a career year last year, why doesn't Bowles get slack for having the Jets overachieve last year?
