Thoughts on Tony Sparano

Somebody pls sit rex ryan on the hot seat and tell him it is 2012, stop trying to remake the 2001 ravens without Ray Lewis or Ed Reed in their prime… And if you hire a OC who will need help calling plays so bad, why the fuk is he the OC?? ………… WHEN WILL THE JETS GET IT RIGHT???

Is critical.

I hope Haley signs on as well. That would be money

Julius Jones.

I don’t think anyone knows what the Jets do behind the scenes.

Some organizations say nothing and everything happens behind the scenes, like the Patriots, and others do everything out front. I think, looking back on the last few weeks, that Woody, Tanny and Rex had a plan and they stuck to it. They were trying to talk up BS hoping someone would take him, like Atlanta did with Mularkey, only with more success, but I think everyone in the building, including Schotty, knew the game. This is nothing more than the same type of double speak we get from our Presidential campaigns, so why get so excited? The end result is what most of us wanted, and let’s move on.

Given the available OC coordinator talent out there I think we did well. McDaniels was never coming here, Clements will probably get a promotion and stay in GB or move to Oakland as OC with some of the other GB coaches if that process goes as expected. Sparano has shown the ability to work with his talent.. For everyone jumping about his use of the Wildcat, remember that Miami only employed that strategy at the start because all their WR’s went down that year, Henne was even worse because he was a first year starter, and their best offensive talents were at RB with Brown and WIlliams. I’ll take a guy that looks at his roster and tries to get the best out of it any day over a guy who insists on planning for games within his system no matter who he has to play and who he is playing. If we can add Haley as the QB guru/passing game coordinator, then we will finally be able to put the Sanchez discussion on the plane where it belongs – about his talent and abilities, not whether he or the OC is at fault for his mistakes and lack of positive development.

I’m less concerned about whether Sparano can personally develop Sanchez than I am with whether he hires a decent QB coach. Schotty (and Rex and T) really should have been ashamed to leave Sanchez in Cavanaugh’s incapable hands.

Seriously what has Tony Sparano shown that makes anyone think this guy will be any better than the last dope we had. It is an offensive coordinators job to score points and this guy will not produce enough points to make this a prolific offense.

Has anyone watched the Dolphins play the last few years and said to themselves that they want an offense like that. The fans in Miami are laughing at us and with damn good reason. I can guarantee that this will be a bland offense where we are running on nearly all first and second downs with the same short passing game that we have had no success with. I have had it with this ground and pound nonsense. You win in the NFL with a prolific passing attack and clearly Rex and Sparano believe it is still 1950 where 3 yards in a cloud of dust was the norm.

We just hired a coordinator who not only has little playcalling experience but one with no background whatsoever in developing QBs. If we hire Haley and he is the playcaller I will change my tune but as of now this is a disgustingly bad hire.

If you all thought we didnt take enough chances downfield I expect things to be even more conservative on offense. This hire shows that Rex is like his father as a head coach; they both have no use for a good offense and go into every game expecting to win 13-10. I am sorry but that does not work in todays NFL.

I thought the nightmare would end when we fired Schottenheimer but I actually think we have downgraded the offensive coordinator position which I thought was nearly impossible to do. If its Sparano with no Haley and this clown is calling plays expect an offense in the bottom third of the league once again. The Jets had a big chance to make a splashy hire but instead just hired the same old same old. There is a reason why this team has been bad offensively since 1998 and its all because of subpar offensive coaching.

Honestly how can anyone possibly be happy with Sparano and his run run run offense. Sorry for going on and on but I am infuriated with this lousy hire.

for us to just say who else could they have hired. The organization could have done a thorough search to find coaches that have been around good offenses.

I am pretty certain that we are the only team that would hire this guy as a coordinator.

the fans throw Sparano under the bus like they did to Schotty? My guess is that he will get a pass for the first 4 games before the fans start to point fingers at him. Can’t wait until 2012.

for these changes and time will tell.

In the original article, John B mentioned that Tony Sparano would make a fine bad cop, compared to the ultimate players’ coach, Rex Ryan the good cop. As a Dolphan, I can tell John B that you’re crazy. Sparano doesn’t have a single “bad cop” bone in his body. Tony watched Chad Henne throw the ball to the wrong team for three straight years and was too nice to bench him. He oversaw all the Dolphin DUIs, wife beatings, stabbings, etc. and actually rewarded those players. When our offense got stuffed at the one-yard line all the time, he never once screamed at the players in anger; instead, he jumped for joy every time Dan Carpenter hit 19-yard field goal. He sticks with some of the league’s worst offensive linemen, and never even at least tries to give a younger player a chance…again, he is overly nice to players who don’t deserve it. No no no. If you Jet fans are looking for a hard-nosed disciplinarian who will toughen up your offense, I’m sorry to say that Tony is not your man. Good luck with that loser.
