About this episode
Are the Jets doomed to watch their former stars succeed elsewhere? John B. exposes how organizational missteps—not just the Darnold trade—continue to haunt the team, from weak infrastructure to scapegoating coaches and players.Key discussions spotlight Darnold's career resurgence, Robert Saleh and Mike LaFleur’s head coaching moves, and the Jets’ persistent failure to build winning rosters or nurture quarterbacks like Geno Smith. Insights on the franchise’s impulsive ownership and quick-fix mentality reveal why success stories often start only after leaving New York. Is it time for a fundamental change at the top, or will Jets fans keep reliving Groundhog Day?Follow & Subscribe on all Podcast platforms…? https://link.chtbl.com/LONYJets?sid=YouTubeLocked On NFL League-Wide: Every Team, Fantasy, Draft & More? https://linktr.ee/LockedOnNFLEverydayer ClubIf you never miss an episode, it’s time to make it official.
