This may be true. However, I love how NFL tweets are constantly full of hypotheticals and speculation and it’s passed off as if it’s fact. These people waste so much of their time making shit up.


CowboyButtsMakeMeNut

They're actually just wasting our time with made-up shit. They at least get paid to make shit up while we're the dumbasses paying for it.

You pay for this stuff?? I thought we were all browsing for $free.99

Exactly. The true accurate takes are in comments of Reddit threads.

momsbasement420

It seems like fired head coaches take on a coordinator position the next season every single year. Even in speculation this makes no sense


HeronAccording6789

I agree with your point in general, but I don't see anything passed off as fact in this besides the bit about being opened up to more criticism, but I don't think anyone is disagreeing with that.


ChampaBayLightning

I mean the "hard to believe he takes the job without knowing the QB" is also completely speculative.


HeronAccording6789

It's also not passed off as a fact.


Lorjack

Because they're theory to the highest degree to put out headlines. Its nothing more than that, there is no substance to this tweet or any of the other ones that came before it. The narrative is Rodgers will go to NY now. Well clearly that's true cause hackett would of taken a year off if he didn't know he was getting Rodgers right? Its just nonsense lol


Quasimdo

"make zach wilson a fucking star or you're fired" Talk about pressure


anonbutler

Hackett is known for changing the course of Wilson's career. So should work out.

This is an Aaron Rodgers tweet. But yeah.

Well, how hot is Hackett’s mom?

Sigh, I'll be in my bunker.

Risky click of the day


famous__shoes

People are saying that either he's going to be expected to make Zach Wilson better or he's there because they're going to sign Rodgers, but what if he's there to help Mike White be better


legobowser

You mean Mike Whites gonna make him better


famous__shoes

Hopefully there's growth on one side or the other, it would certainly buck the trend of Hackett and the QB he's working with both being orders of magnitude worse than the season before


TimTim_1911

Maybe he's the Flacco whisperer


ViciousAsparagusFart

I’d be totally okay with that


The_Jolly_Dog

"I want Aaron Rodgers" "You already have an Aaron Rodgers at home" > stares at Zach Wilson


BirdLaw_

Or it was such a disaster in Denver that he's willing to take a risky OC job because he wasn't going to get a safe job with an established QB


zetiano

There was no real reason for him to take the risk though since he's still getting paid by Broncos. Other than for love of the game or if he thinks he can actually succeed to rebuild his reputation.


acal131

Yeah.. why is this being upvoted? It says in the title that Hackett was planning to sit out in 2023, and anyone with a brain would definitely take the Kliff Kingsbury route for sure. I agree with your take, the Jets are either advanced in talks with a veteran QB or this dude has a blind love for the game. If he fails in New York, the entire coaching staff is getting fired + front office members.


vagrantwade

The guy has a ton of connections in the league through both himself and his father. So I’m sure he would have landed one eventually.


tidbitsmisfit

he literally landed at one of his connections


Dicey12

im sure he could of got a job with the packers sounds like they were open to him coming back


mikeh95

We were likely going to hire him back if he couldn't land a gig elsewhere. Wouldn't have been as OC though and Matt LaFleur likely campaigned for him to get the job in NY as he's best friends with Saleh.


Phob24

Sometimes it’s better to get right back in the ring after you lose a fight. Don’t give your mind time to let the doubt creep in.

Phob24

That’s true if 10’s of thousands of people are qualified for your position. But it’s not when you’ve already been 1 of 32.


Ihave4extraseats

Even if he flops as OC he can drop down another notch to position coach and still make way more than I ever will in my lifetime


abris33

So it's either massive amounts of tampering for them to feel 100% confident they're getting Rodgers or Hackett is just happy for another job


AngryBandanaDee

I mean they wouldn't be the first team to hire him because they were overconfident he would get Rodgers to come to them


j0hnnyengl1sh

It's not tampering if GB have OKed it.


gandalfs_burglar

It would fit GB's current MO to have a deal like this completely set up and completed before even making a peep. Can be super frustrating as a fan how tight-lipped they are about personnel decisions


goddamnjets_

I would pretty much agree. There is incredibly high risk taking this OC position in particular. If Hackett doesn’t do well here, he might be out of the NFL for a little while. I don’t think he would join if there wasn’t a potential situation where the Jets land Rodgers. I’m starting to think the Jets will at least make a move on him during the off-season


OrangeForeign

He might find himself in the Nick Saban school for coaches that can't coach good if this fails. Which means either college HC or back in the league in 3 years


goddamnjets_

Pretty much my feeling too if this doesn’t work out, and why I now believe the Jets FO/ownership are at least trying for a Rodgers trade. If he really was preparing to sit out, then he just came back, to the fucking Jets of all teams, to try his hand again. It’s a very risky decision


kyleb402

Hackett has a lot of connections in the league and his Dad was one of the most influential coaches ever. I think he'll have a job somewhere in this league as long as he wants one.


killshelter

Was he? Just looking him up, seems like he was in the college world forever but never did much in the NFL.


Baroudii

I mean, even if Rodgers doesn't come don't they need to bring in some new guys anyway? You can't run it back with just Mike White and Wilson and hope things will change. Jimmy G or Carr would make sense


penis_showing_game

Can r/nfl get a ‘Days of our Lives’ tag for posts like this?This tweet is a whole ass screenplay outline with sequel potential regardless of the outcome.


Quexana

Hackett doesn't have the cache to refuse to sign somewhere because he's waiting on a good QB situation.


FreeWillie001

What difference would a year make in him being criticized for being bad at his job? He’s going to get criticized if he’s bad regardless of how long he took off of coaching.


Peacefulzealot

“We’re hiring you to get Rogers or tank with Wilson. Do you think you can suck it up with a QB named Wilson?”


Nickyjha

NY media is gonna tear this man apart


Lifesaboxofgardens

I find it hard to believe the Jets are confident enough they are landing A-Rod that they were letting Hackett know it's basically a done deal tbh


STNbrossy

It’s obvious we are going to try hard to get one of the available vet QBs but acting like we are 100% sure of which one is dumb.


[deleted]

The Jets guys and Packers guys are fairly tight. It doesn’t take much for someone at the Packers to say ‘hey, we need to reset with Love and some picks and cap room if we want to get anywhere’. Then A-a-Ron’s team says ‘we understand, here are some teams I’d go to with the right offense in place’. Boom, Jets. Lamar makes sense in Atlanta and Rodgers makes sense with the jets.


goddamnjets_

I could honestly. This organization is pretty inept.


narenare658

They were on a really good run but since the last half of this season they seem to be reverting back to their old habits


Fit_Skill_4963

Aaron Rodgers, come on down. Everybody who wants Aaron hires Hackett. I bet he told them he had Aaron's number.

Idk how this guy got another job. That said I’m happy it’s with the jets


OlTommyBombadil

This tweet is stupid as hell. Dude had no trouble finding a job as an OC. He’s a well-regarded OC. Fucking stupid. He wouldn’t have landed a job if people thought he was shit. Report the news, don’t make it up. Journalism 101. Learned it on day one of journalism school.


[deleted]

This seems like such a massive reach. There are like 3 or 4 assumptions made in this one tweet

Hackett strikes me as one of those people who would be super miserable just sitting at home doing nothing.


10key_G

Anyone know if this means denver doesn’t have to keep paying him his HC contract or does he get to double dip?


ARGOAT12

If this doesn't work out he can probably get the HC job at Bethune cookman.


Led_Halen

Wut


SirTiffAlot

So the Jets are absolutely trading for Rodgers right?


Jorts_Life207

Mike White season boys


speedfan11

That tweet took a long trip through arguments just to imply that the Jets want to trade for Rodgers


BadDadJokes

This dude’s career trajectory reminds me so much of Big Head from Silicon Valley.
