Mosley \u2014 who you\u2019ve gotten to watch play for about 10 minutes since he was signed and was inarguably the team\u2019s best defensive player once Adams was gone \u2014 opted out of the 2020 season because of COVID-19 concerns.<\/p>\n<p>Then Denzel Mims, your second-round draft pick who was supposed to add punch to a punch-less receiving corps, didn\u2019t even make it to the first full practice of training camp before hurting a hamstring, and he\u2019s now on injured reserve. Who knows when he\u2019ll be able to play, and when he does, how far behind he\u2019ll be?<\/p>\n<p>Jamison Crowder, a slot receiver by trade (but your No. 1 receiver because the position of need wasn\u2019t properly addressed in the offseason), also is out with a hamstring injury.<\/p>\n<p>Breshan Perriman, who was supposed to become the No. 1 receiver, lasted only a game before suffering an ankle injury in Week 2, and he\u2019s probably out for the next two games.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, Robby Anderson, the receiver Jets management opted not to re-sign for modest money in the offseason, is flourishing with the Panthers, having caught 15 passes for 223 yards and a touchdown in his first two games. Think the Jets would pay him that $10 million he wanted now?<\/p>\n<p>Running back Le\u2019Veon Bell, who came into camp in all-world shape (he showed us so with a <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/watch-movies-tv-seriess\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"8\" title=\"Watch Movies &amp; TV Series\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">series<\/a> of Instagram videos during the offseason) in an effort to erase the worst season of his career in 2019, is on injured reserve with (you guessed it) a hamstring injury.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" frameborder=\"no\" height=\"200\" scrolling=\"no\" src=\"https:\/\/playlist.megaphone.fm?e=ADL4317214967&amp;light=true\" width=\"100%\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Three seasons into his career as the third-overall pick in the 2018 draft, you still don\u2019t know if Sam Darnold is a franchise quarterback.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, Darnold\u2019s contemporary and close friend, Bills quarterback Josh Allen (who was drafted four spots after Darnold), has looked dynamic while completing 70.4 percent of his passes and throwing six touchdowns and no interceptions through two games this season.<\/p>\n<p>Though your team has been eviscerated for not showing up in these past two games, your stadium co-tenants (who like the Jets are 0-2) are being universally praised for playing hard for their rookie head coach, Joe Judge, and for merely being competitive in their losses.<\/p>\n<p>You blame Gase, and rightfully so, because he was brought here for his alleged ability to develop quarterbacks.<\/p>\n<p>Then you had to listen to team owner Christopher Johnson, after the Week 1 walkover loss to the Bills, say he has \u201cfull confidence in Adam.\u2019\u2019<\/p>\n<p>You detest your head coach so much that there\u2019s an online \u201cFire Adam Gase\u2019\u2019 petition begging for signatures. There, too, was supposed to a \u201cFire Gase\u2019\u2019 rally outside the team facility the other day, though about five people showed up.<\/p>\n<p>Your <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/general\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"3\" title=\"General\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">general<\/a> manager, Joe Douglas, <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/download-scripts-themes-apps\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"9\" title=\"Download Scripts &amp; Themes &amp; Apps\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">app<\/a>ears to be building this team for the future when Darnold\u2019s time is now. The Jets\u2019 continual rebuild resembles a hamster on a wheel \u2014 it never stops and there\u2019s no destination.<\/p>\n<p>You can\u2019t even show up at the home games and boo, express your outrage, because COVID-19 restrictions prevent any fans at the stadium.<\/p>\n<p>The TV ratings for the Jets game against the 49ers last week was overnight-infomercial low.<\/p>\n<p>Apathy is setting in. And that\u2019s rock-bottom. Apathy is more alarming and insulting than the noncompetitive play on the field.<\/p>\n<p>I have no answers for you, not even a trite \u201chang-in-there-it\u2019s-bound-to-get better\u2019\u2019 clich\u00e9.<\/p>\n<p>This season will be 10 consecutive years without a playoff berth, and that\u2019s unacceptable.<\/p>\n<p>I have only sympathy.<\/p>\n<p>But do try to hang in there, because after all, how much worse can it get?<\/p>\n<p>Wait.
