So the inside story on why Saleh got fired......
I heard this on Social Media from a person who works in the Jets organization....

On the flight home, following their loss to MIN in London Sunday morning, Saleh and a few coaches decided they needed a change on offense. They were going to replace Hackett as the offensive play caller.

Hackett was hand picked by Rodgers for that job since he has a relationship with him in the past at GB.

The team goes over the MIN game film Monday and the coaches decide, yep. Hackett can stay as O-cooridnator due to his relationship with Rodgers but, no more play calling. This decision is communicated to the GM, the Owner, and Rodgers.

Woody Johnson (the Jets Owner) talks to Rodgers about he decision and Rodgers is pissed. Its not clear if Rodgers called Johnson or vice versa. 5 minutes later Johnson calls Saleh into his office and is fired.

Anyone who doesn't think this was on Rodgers is kidding themselves.
Todd Downing will replace Nathaniel Hackett as the New York Jets' offensive playcaller going forward, interim coach Jeff Ulbrich announced Thursday.

Hackett will remain the Jets' offensive coordinator with Downing remaining as the Jets' passing game coordinator, Ulbrich said.

It's the first major decision made by Ulbrich, who was promoted to interim coach on Tuesday when the Jets fired Robert Saleh after four seasons.

Ulbrich also announced that he will retain his title of defensive coordinator and remain the defense's playcaller, he said.

So they pulled the trigger on Hackett anyway.

I guess Ulrich was in agreement with the change. I wonder if he'll be fired by Rodgers Woody Johnson (the owner) now? :ROFLMAO:

"Mike McCarthy's contract with the Dallas Cowboys as head coach is up after the 2024 season. In January 2024, Cowboys owner Jerry Jones said that he would retain McCarthy as head coach. However, McCarthy's future with the team depends on the team's playoff success."

Looks like he's done.
