Jets fire Robert Saleh

[bradshaw2ben]

Really dumb move on the Jets part

You start listening to Aaron fucking Rogers about anything and you are gonna wind up wrong

Why is that?

Well, for one, he hated the HC who's now killing it with Green Bay.

Possibly the most self absorbed and willfully ignorant loser in the NFL. On top of being a petty team killing cancer

Oh I thought it was gonna be something else

Carry on

Yeah, I suspect the Lebanese flag has more to do with it than anything else

Of course, it could be Aaron Rogers pushing his weight

That would be incredibly lame, since all of these guys (and more) are wearing flags to support their heritage:

Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa (Samoa), Lions receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown (Germany), Falcons kickers Younghoe Koo (South Korea), and 49ers linebacker Fred Warner (Mexico).

Florio was playing up the political angle this morning but didn’t mention anything about the Lebanese flag however

Nothing surprises me anymore but surely Woody knew Saleh’s heritage when he hired him

If Saleh feels discrimination led to his firing then dude needs to lawyer up and cash in

Considering the political climate we're in Samoa/Mexico/Germany does not equal Lebanese. If this were over a year ago, probably wouldn't raise an eyebrow.

Now, it's something that catches your eye.

Sign him as Revenge for him as defensive consultant for next week's Sunday night game!

Inside scoop!!

Rodgers is a dumb guy who is absolutely convinced that he's a smart guy.

It’s still 100% bullshit

“Political climate” is mostly extremist fantasy

[Stosh-67]

Would he have been fired if he had a Israeli flag patch?

How about they play football.
They can fly any flag they want on their front lawn,
from their car mirror,
on their suit into the stadium.

Come thru the tunnel....
Play football.

Oh I agree it's dumb. No argument from me on this one.
But optics play significant roles in sports, much to my chagrin

Counterpoint: He was, in fact, doing this a year ago and you didn't even notice

Mike Tomlin to the Jets. Let's speak it into existence. Someone call Rich Eisen and get him to start salivating over it.

Couple of non-losing seasons would be heaven to them.

Listen, neither the US nor any of its allies are at war with Lebanon. It's absolutely ridiculous if this flag were somehow conflagrated into reasons for firing the guy. But, I guess, not impossible in this age.

That's funny.

Tomlin runs the defense and he would consider Saleh a threat to his abilities. Would never happen

This

And I’d add any flag

I mean so what ?? It’s just some clothing

Considering the level of intelligence across the US, I wouldn't be surprised if people couldn't pick out Lebanon over Afghanistan on a map. They lump people in as "Middle Eastern" and conclude they all must be terrorists.

I had a coworker who said he was from "Persia" and I'm convinced he didn't want to reveal his true country of origin lest he get harassed. Sad yet true.

Robert Saleh considered firing Jets OC Nathaniel Hackett prior to getting his own pink slip from Woody Johnson

Saleh could have made the move to fire Hackett as early as Tuesday, sources tell CBS Sports

Can't be threatening Aaron Rodger's buddies like that. Out you go!

Good lord with the political nonsense here
Saleh was fired because he is a poor and offensively challenge coach …. Hint hint hint Mr Rooney

[Havoc]

On Sept 30 rabid lifelong Jets fan Mike Greenberg vehemently called for the Jets to fire Saleh... for whatever that's worth. Said Saleh is a good guy and the world needs good guys more than it needs football coaches but Saleh is not a HC.

I'm guessing Greeny knows the history and inner workings of the Jets more than anyone on this site.

IMO... Rodgers handled the cadence issue well. Saleh didn't.

I don't think Rodgers is dumb. I think he's surly.
