Got to give credit for Chev. He has built this team a true contender and based on everything I've gathered from here, it seems like it's been a long road to get here. Of course with success there's always a bit of luck involved and a big part of that materialized in the 2016 draft lottery. Otherwise what comes down to drafting and trading there can be little to complain about. Now that the Jets are "there" it comes down to Pmo. I'm not convinced of his methods nor decisions, yet while looking at the rankings you can't really complain, although the core of players the Jets currently possess cannot be overlooked either when measuring how the team should be doing in the league. It seems many take it for granted that the team is already in the playoffs but it isn't the case. Nevertheless, I agree that dropping out of the contest would be a disaster and at the moment really unexpected. The kind of roster Maurice currently has is one of the best in the entire league and once the team likely and hopefully makes the playoffs, that's when his real test begins. With these players (All-Star level goalkeeper, elite defense & elite forwards) I would not settle for a few wins while dropping out in the first round but actually going deep and maybe even competing for the Cup itself. Anything else would be disappointing. Anyway, like I said Chev has done a marvelous job so far and as for Maurice, I'll reserve the judgement based not only on the regular success, but for the entire nine yards. If he proves unable to lead his team at least past the first opponent in the playoffs, he should be heading towards the exist and never look back.
