I recall Rex Ryan cranked up in full blowhard mode (is there any other way for that guy?) — and all he did was belittle the Giants and even said something about how the Jets weren’t the Little Brother or something.

If this latest development where the Jets set aside their pride and are now begging for Giant help doesn’t flatly contradict that – what does?

Career suicide going cross town. Don’t do it Marc.

What the big deal if Jets get someone from the Giants. If they help us win, I’m all in.

Not Marc Ross, as a lifelong Giants fan I personally know this guy is more involved than you may think.

All In.

And Happy New Year!!!

Promoting another team’s scout to GM? I guess I’ve seen crazier ideas but I’d think a crumbling org like the Jets would want a proven winner.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Don’t hold me too this but I’m quite sure Marc Ross got a Superbowl ring last year. And another one 5 years ago, sounds like a proven winner to me…

A scout doesn’t make plays, coach, sign free agents, negotiate contracts, manage the payroll, or draft people– he recommends college players to his bosses. He has helped, certainly, but he is wayyyyy down the list of people who get credit for winning championships.

The jets dont have to be an embarassment, but their dumb owner keeps sticking his nose into things and screwing it up

I feared this. It was only a matter of time before our unheralded ace in the hole got discovered.

There’s no helping this team while Mark “noodle arm” Sanchez is your starting QB

Who knew woody Johnson had some sense. Here’s to the jets for finally being serious about winning.

Panthers would be smart to hire him quick. Ross would be dumb to take the jets offer.

why would he go work for the Jets & be Rex Ryans Little pet , he should come to Carolina where he can help lead us to SB riches

In the words of the late great deep philosopher, Leonard “Chico” Marx, “We canna a-do a-that. It make-a too much sense.”

This would be a good hire, so since we’re talking about the Jets, I doubt that it will happen. It could be just a smokescreen, a management version of the Rooney Rule to keep The Great Roger Goodell Himself Live And In Person from getting upset.

Ross is bright and hard working. The Jets will suck all that out of him though. They’re vampires of talent, and will leave him a burnt out husk.

The Jets are certainly an attractive job for a good GM

Although they have no cap space, at least the new GM will have full and complete authority – with the exception of picking his Head Coach and starting QB

But those are just minor details

On the up side, he won’t have far to move.

On the down side, he’s going to be working for the Jets.
