Hey, what's up, everyone? Frankie V here
from the New York Post Sports and U Stadium.
All right. There is a big discussion today as to whether
or not Aaron Glenn will survive the rest of the 2026 NFL season.
Let me tell you why I think he won't,
because we've gone on shows previously.
We do our preview show with Brian Costello and Ryan Sampson.
Great show, by the way. I would I would tune in.
And we've discussed that we feel like Glenn will survive the season.
He's going to get 2026 to prove
that what he did last year in terms of trying to rebuild,
trading Sauce, trading Quinnen, getting those picks.
You got to give him some time to instill his culture,
to do the things that he intended
to do here.
But let me tell you why I think things have changed.
And it comes down to a few things, but there's one main component.
Yesterday at MetLife Stadium,
It was an embarrassment.
And what I mean by an embarrassment,
it wasn't what happened on the field necessarily.
That was the embarrassment.
Although you could point to the fact that
Kirk Cousins and the Raiders offense had 333 total yards.
You could point to the fact that the week before,
Malik Willis came in here with Ali Gordon,
two guys that not many people know much about,
and torched the Jets offensively.
You could point to the fact that in five games,
and Ryan Sampson brought this up,
I thought that in five games.
This year, losses for the Jets,
they've given up almost 390 yards on average of offense.
Could bring that up.
Could bring up all those things on the field
that are why Aaron Glenn, the defensive coordinator,
the defensive mind Aaron Glenn, should be let go
because his defense has been atrocious
in losses and of recent weeks.
But something happened at MetLife yesterday
that I think...
Gives a little bit more perspective.
And I think the owner is not going to like
that stadium was filled with Raiders fans,
Raiders fans that were so loud
that caused left tackle Olu Fashanu to jump off sides to
get a false start.
That's a problem.
And I think when you start looking at what leads
an owner to say enough is enough to
stop the bleeding.
It's situations like yesterday, it's moments like yesterday,
it's environments like yesterday
where your home crowd is not your home crowd.
Your home crowd is the away crowd.
Vegas Raiders, think about how far away Vegas is.
Now, I know there's a lot of Raiders fans from New York.
I grew up with a bunch of Raiders fans growing up,
Charlie Garner jerseys, Jerry Rice jerseys,
et cetera.
The Raiders fans took over MetLife Stadium yesterday.
And our fans that were there, and I spoke to many that were there,
were not happy about it.
And I'm sure the owner, Woody Johnson, Christopher Johnson,
were not happy about it.
And they shouldn't be happy about it.
This fan base is amazing.
The Jets fans are passionate.
We love football.
We live, breathe, and die football.
We want our team to be good.
We're 16 years now without a playoff appearance.
And this head coach, a lot of the promises
that we thought he was bringing in,
a lot of the things he told us about culture, about accountability,
about defensive play calling, have not turned out to be true.
It's been the opposite.
This head coach also said that the last four minutes of each half
belonged to the head coach.
And we've been historically inept
in the last four minutes of each half.
Outscored in the last two minutes of the first half, 107 now to nine
because we got a field goal yesterday.
It is beyond an embarrassment.
You can no longer allow this stuff to happen.
And when opposing fans come in and flood your home field,
that's a battle cry.
It's a battle cry.
And I don't think Aaron Glenn is going to last the season.
I don't.
It, it, there's.
There's a lot of negative chatter out there.
I understand that it comes
and goes with the territory when you're losing.
But we have comments made by Minka Fitzpatrick yesterday.
No one's really sure what he said.
Is it the Jets beating the Jets?
Is it the Jets being the Jets?
Listen, even if he said it's the Jets being the Jets, he's right.
It is the Jets being the Jets.
I don't even find those comments at all, any of which offensive.
He's just calling a spade a spade.
He talked about the Jets being the Jets in the offseason,
so I'm sure he said it again.
Because he's from New Jersey, Minka.
This is becoming an embarrassment to the owner,
to the team, to the players, and to the fans.
We don't need it anymore.
I think Woody Johnson's totally in his right to say, you know what?
This is not working out.
It wasn't going to work out, newsflash,
when you bring in a defensive-minded head coach.
Who struggles with defensive play calling, by the way.
But it doesn't work when you bring in a defensive-minded head coach
that does not understand how to call plays
or how to create things offensively when you don't have a quarterback
and you don't have an OC in the pipeline
or somebody you can look forward to or look into the future
and think this is a creative coach on offense
that can team up with the DC to...
Score points, and that's what this league's about,
scoring points, and I thought it was
a faulty model to begin with.
It's proven to be.
Yesterday, for example, the Jets scored 33 points.
They should have scored 43 points.
They should have scored 50 points,
and that's what happens when you have coaches at the
helm that believe in clock management.
It's a game of field position.
Got to run the football, even though we don't run
the football enough for some reason.
I mean, Braylon Allen yesterday had 21 carries for 147 yards.
That's seven yards a carry, mind you.
Seven yards a carry.
Should have been more.
Give him 28 carries, 30.
He would have ran for 200 yards yesterday.
So even those things that you'd think they would
do as an older school thought process,
or whatever you want to call it, it's an older...
uh older coaches there Frank Reich's the oldest OC
in the game Aaron Glenn's one of the older head
coaches in the game believe it or not he looks great by the way
but you have you have an older
thought there an older thought school
of of of of system within your head within your coaching staff
and you're not even doing the things
that you would expect them to do you'd run the football more
You might even be more aggressive defensively.
Again, now the Jets, another embarrassing stat is,
forget about us not having an interception last year
or throughout 20 games, which is an NFL record.
You have had one interception in 25 games,
which hasn't happened since 1932.
I don't even know if they had stats back then.
It's crazy.
We're last in the NFL in interceptions this season.
Forget about last season not having one.
We have one interception this season.
Where's the aggression?
Where's the passion?
Where's the energy?
I thought we were getting Bill Parcells 2.0 here
or Bill Parcells 0.5.
We're getting neither.
We're getting Bill Parcells minus one.
That's what we're getting.
And it's inexcusable.
That stadium yesterday,
it's inexcusable to be overrun by Raiders fans
for a team that's in Vegas.
It's not like we're playing the Eagles or something.
It's, it's, it's unreal.
It's, it's, it's, it's not going to end.
Also with this schedule coming up newsflash,
things aren't going to get easier here.
They're going to get harder.
You're playing Kansas City next week
in Kansas City coming off two bad losses.
Then you're playing Buffalo two times.
Aaron Glenn's only faced Josh Allen once.
He's going to face him two more times.
Things are not going to get easier here.
And I think before things get really bad,
it's probably in the best interest of the players,
of the coaches, of the fans
to probably move on from this guy, and I think they will.
I don't think it's when the bleeding keeps going,
you've got to put a Band-Aid on it.
And the fact that, thinking about this, Frank Reich as head coach,
Seth Ryan as offensive coordinator,
with Reich calling the plays, obviously.
And Brian Duker, as your DC, sounds better than Aaron Glenn,
Aaron Glenn, and Frank Reich is an issue.
That's a big issue.
And I think they keep them, they keep them.
I know fans are like, just keep them
to get the number one pick or whatever.
I'm not even thinking about that right now.
I'm thinking about how do you stop
the embarrassment that is the Aaron Glenn Jets?
And every week, there's a new anomaly stat.
Every week, there's a new situation of embarrassments like this.
Raider takeover at MetLife yesterday,
it's constantly getting worse and worse and worse.
I said last week losing to the 0-5 Dolphins
who came into MetLife and never had had a
lead in a football game this year, only had the lead against us.
I thought that was rock bottom,
and you kind of just hit a parallel rock bottom yesterday.
You're at the bottom.
And, uh, there's really no way for Aaron Glenn to get out of this.
I don't think there's enough creation at the top
in terms of play calling on both sides
of the football.
I just don't think they run a very smart operation up there.
I just don't, I don't think things are done in the right way.
And I don't think this coaching staff is equipped
in 2026 to build a winner and the fans deserve
a winner.
And I know Woody Johnson, Christopher
Johnson, I know they want a winner.
So, you can critique.
The ownership group, you can critique
anything you want as much as you want,
but there's clearly been effort to try
to bring in a quality candidate here.
But it's the wrong mentality when you're hiring these people.
And if there's one thing I can say is you got
to look at what your advantage is as a team.
And I think the Jets clearly yesterday saw A.D. Mitchell,
our wide receiver three, looking like a wide receiver one.
We have Garrett Wilson.
We have Omar Cooper Jr. We have Kenyon Sadiq. We have Mason Taylor.
We have Braylon Allen. We have Breece Hall still on the team.
We have two bookend tackles
that made Max Crosby look like an undrafted player.
This is the kind of offense that you got to leverage
and you got to double, triple,
quadruple down on.
And the only way you do that is you got
to bring an offensive mind here.
If you want to go with the CEO type that has experience,
I would absolutely recommend
bringing in a quality OC, like one of the cream of the crop kind of OC.
And if you can't get a cream of the crop OC,
you got to definitely get an offensive minded
head coach, someone like a Declan Doyle.
You interviewed Josh McCown.
Last year, or two years ago, excuse me,
last cycle, knock on his door again.
Josh McCown brings you a combination of offensive mind and leadership.
And you have that connection with Darren Mooji and...
Kevin O'Connell in Minnesota that you can start bringing
those conversations to life.
But there's candidates out there that make sense for the Jets.
The thing that doesn't make sense for the Jets
is continuing to go down this defensive-minded,
called defensive dinosaur route with these guys that,
yeah, they can rah-rah,
but can they scheme up a play call on either end?
Some of these guys, they're not even great
at calling defensive plays, and we saw it yesterday.
Kirk Cousins all day is just throwing
the ball across the middle of the field.
We know what he's doing.
You know what he's doing.
We know the tight ends are an issue,
and they still continuously find ways to target both tight ends
and made them look like, you know, Prime Gronk and Aaron Hernandez.
Seriously, that's what it looked like yesterday.
So this team is at rock bottom.
I don't see how we're going to get out of it.
If they want to keep it here, they can.
There's a bunch of football left.
There's nine games left on the schedule.
It's not going to get easier.
I think.
This thing's ending, and it's over.
It's just this idea with Aaron Glenn was faulty to begin with.
There was only one way out of this thing.
I think if you had a quality OC
and you happened to hit on Justin Fields
when you wanted to bring him in, or you kept Aaron Rodgers around,
that was really the only way this thing would have worked.
Didn't work.
It's not working.
It's time to move on.
And the ownership is totally justified
if they want to move on from Aaron Glenn.
So if you want my honest opinion,
I don't think Aaron Glenn finishes out the season.
Why?
There's too much time left.
There was three games left.
All right.
Yeah, he'll finish out.
There's five games left.
Six games.
Nine games is a lot.
Nine games is a lot.
It's November 2nd.
Yes.
I had to check.
I'm terrible with dates.
November 2nd.
A lot of time left.
You have all of November, all of December, most of January.
It's a lot of time, and I don't think they're going to make it.
I don't.
But, yeah, with that being said,
Frankie V here from the New York Post Sports
and U Stadium.
Tune in.
I drop these videos every once in a blue,
but I was feeling the need to do that.
I was getting asked questions.
Do you think Aaron Glenn survives the rest of the season?
I don't.
And I think the ownership group will hopefully
do the proper measures
to bring in somebody to leverage what we have offensively
because you saw Braylon Allen.
A.D. Mitchell, we know what Gary can do.
We know what Omar Cooper Jr. can do.
We know what Mason Taylor and Kenyon Sadiq can do.
There's a lot of cool things here.
The offensive line, we're an interior offensive lineman away
from having a really good offensive line.
There's things to be done here.
Three first-round picks looming.
Now it looks like, and Brian Costello posted this,
and I love when he posts tank-a-thon stuff.
It's great.
Four, six, and ten we have right now.
That's great.
I'm all about Drew Mestemaker.
We'll get into it, but there's some quarterbacks in this class.
We'll see how things shape out, but the Jets are in a good position.
I think it's time to move on, and I think they will move on.
Sayonara.
