Head coach Todd Bowles shouldn’t be on the hot seat, despite many experts projecting he is. It’s a joke that he’s even considered to be in this position, to begin with. He’s handled the New York Jets and while isn’t perfect, inherited a dire situation that needed a few years to correct.
If his seat is hot now, the Jets should’ve fired and replaced him after 2016. There’s only one reason to fire Bowles after 2017, a complete disaster of a season. Otherwise, the Jets need to look at the Cincinnati Bengals as the model for how to deal with the head coach.
