Hour 1: Aaron Glenn’s Staff Purge Sparks Gruden Panic

The Jets hit the reset button again, and the fallout is ugly. With Aaron Glenn firing coaches and still searching for an offensive coordinator, the conversation turns to the wildest report yet: the Jets allegedly offered Jon Gruden a staff role, and the guys think that only happens if Woody Johnson is the one making the call. That sparks the bigger question: is this the setup for Gruden to become the next Jets head coach once the season goes sideways? Hour 1 dives into why the Jets feel like a disaster in the making for 2026: no OC, no QB, and a staff that looks like a collection of “singles to center field” hires. The crew debates whether the franchise should just go full drastic now, or ride out Glenn, embrace the tank, chase the No. 1 pick, and then make the big swing later (Arch Manning dreams included). Plus, a heated caller debate on whether Gruden should ever be hired again, the reality of the Jets’ league-wide reputation, cap space vs dead money, and a potential “path forward” that includes a real play-caller and a quarterback swing like Malik Willis or Teddy Bridgewater. Then it’s a quick pivot to Knicks notes after a win, with Karl-Anthony Towns again sitting late, Clyde calling out the defense, and more questions about crunch-time lineups.
