The fanbase was ready to burn Jeff Ireland at the stake and even paid for planes to fly around the stadium begging to fire him for his continued incompetence. But you know what? He at least found enough talent on the team to keep it slightly below average. It was still a clown show, but the talent level was high enough to almost be competitive.
Now in comes Tannenbaum who already has a proven history of running the Jets straight into the ground. Ross sneaks this buffoon into the job over the first seemingly competent GM we've had in ages, and he immediately starts doing what he does best. Our team goes from slightly below average to bottom-feeder extraordinaire. Yeah we're competing now alright, we're competing for that #1 overall draft pick. Then we somehow pull a victory out of our asses against a blown-the-****-up cleveland browns team who has no kickers, a 3rd string QB, and a #1 WR who spends half the game subbing in for said 3rd string QB, thus losing ground even in that competition.
Overly negative perspective? I don't think so! I haven't even gotten to the BEST part yet!
Tannenbaum somehow did all this WHILE MORTGAGING AWAY OUR FUTURE. Future draft picks traded. Absurd veteran contracts given. Money deferred on contracts. Homegrown talent let walk.
And for some reason... most people just don't care.
"Tannehill sucks"
"Our defense sucks"
"Our o-line sucks"
"Our linebackers suck"
"Our CBs suck"
"Gase sucks"
Some or even all of those may be true.
And yet none of them to compare to the sucktitude that is Mike Tannebaum.
But let me tell you. Tannenbaum is probably going to outlive them all. He's got those ready made excuses for Ross. "We were rebuilding (whoops I traded away all our building blocks, let's just blame coaching)" "We don't have the players yet" "We need to draft a new QB so we'd better spend an entire draft to trade up for the next Mark Sanchez soon" "Coffee boy Grier didn't keep my mug filled so I couldn't work properly"
There is absolutely no hope until this fraud is kicked out of the building. Period.
