Would a Jets win to advance NE into the playoffs lighten your hatred of them? - Page 3 - New England Patriots Forums

Hate the Dolphins YES.....Hate the Jets NO....The Jets have been our door mats for the past several years....The Jets are going to beat the Dolphins this week to show their love for us.

should probably preface my comment by saying that I don't hate the Jets or anything. They're not good enough to be our legitimate rivals. That said I don't particularly like them because of their role in screwing us over before the 96 super bowl and in cameragate. And yes, I will dislike them slightly less if they help to get us into the playoffs.

I believe the phrase "useful idiots" comes into play here

I'll be a little less grumpy if they put their heart and soul into the game.

But if they lay down and let Miami roll over them then it will be inexcusable. It'll show them to still be the petty idiots they are.

I just choose to root against the Phish !!!!

It would for me.
Im rooting for NYJ @ home and see Brett making solid decisions, great coaching/plays against this tight match-up. Brett needs to not throw any INT's and play smart-maybe even run his ass off foe some 1st downs, like the old days if needed.

The NYJ D will need to come up BIG against Miami's offense though. I would love to see some pressure on Pennington. Everytime he opens his mouth, I feel like vomiting.

Hell to the no.

My dislike of the JETs really has to do their fans and management.
They've got some really good players. If the players pick themselves
up after that loss last week and fight and beat the fins I will have
lots of respect for the players.
I just know the players won't be doing it for the RAT they'll being doing it
for their honor.
