had them playoff bound, he did not have them SB bound, and if they weren't SB bound then they decided they would start developing their future.

The Jets do not believe Mike White is their future. What they do believe is they are quite possibly playoff bound for the first time in forever, which is huge for them in developing that team, and therefore huge for the owner in increasing the value of the team. What they don't need is a QB who doesn't seem to be progressing screwing that up.
