D'Brickashaw Ferguson retiring

[IcyPatriot]

Anything bad for the Jets is cause for celebration ... this is going to really hurt them.

Some of their fans were welcoming a Wilkerson trade ... how's that working for you rats fans.

Can they afford to lose 2 big leaders on their lines?

I wonder if they will cut him to eliminate the possibility of unretiring and wreaking havoc on their salary cap one they go off and spend the $$ that just got created by his retirement

same thing as calvin johnsons.........if he wants to play for someone else, all he has to do is come back and the cap hit comes right back too

snazzy way for the player to put the team on the spot

 

[IllegalContact]

the notion that he was a bust is silly

 

[Urgent]

Opens $9mm for Jets, who were tight in cap space. Enables them to sign Fitz as their QB.
But creates a huge need at LT. Probably their top draft pick need.

I visited JetsInsider just now to read the JEST fans' "woe is me" reaction……….and nothing ….crickets. In fact, that message board looks practically abandoned. Has their fan base just thrown in the towel?

Maybe they need to get a few drinks in them before they venture over to the forum.

Excellent player, Never missed a game, really durable. Enjoy your retirement Brick!

JetsInsider is a wasteland now. Went to the dark side and sold out to Scout. Check out JetNation instead.
New York Jets Message Board - JetNation.com

Precautionary tale. If you like PatsFan, chip in! I'm sure they're getting offers to sell.

That message board was taken over by Scout and everyone left. Most went over to jetnation.com and some to thegangreen.

Hows that extra mill feel like now Matt Forte. Good luck finding the gaps.

Hey man, don't let your "logic" and "sense of humor" get in the way of really bad Dad Puns. There are cringeworthy jokes about the Jests to be made. Let's talk about the NYJFL and Roger Baddell while we're at it. Bad because it's the opposite of Good and his name is Goodell, do you get it???

 

[PatsFanSince74]

Jets front office: We want you to take a big pay cut.

Ferguson: Sod off. I'm outta here.




Glorious.... And if it didn't happen that way, it should have.

The evidence is mounting that it did happen that way ...this was the article in this morning's print edition of the NY Daily News, first posted online last night...

"In fact, the brain trust has made it clear to Ferguson that a pay reduction would help the team bring back Fitzpatrick, who has been at an impasse with the clubfor more than a month after receiving a low-ball offer."

Dontcha just love it when they call the Jets' Front Office, the "brain trust?"

Jets ask D’Brickashaw to take pay cut for Ryan Fitzpatrick

 

[RobertWeathers]

Yep....wow, what a complete shock.

Completely healthy is a relative term.

The day docs can pick up CTE via a PET/CT scan will be a great day.

Fortunately for them, Rats fans aren't smart enough to realize the irony...

5mil dead I think. Should free up 9mil.
Sucks losing him. One play missed in 10 years and that was because it was a trick formation. Crazy.

Thread derailment warning!

Apart for the Rats logo on his jacket I love your avatar.

The Wonder Years was such a gr8 show. How did they know that Winnie Cooper would blossom from a dorky girl into a raging fox? Can horned-rimmed glasses hide so much?

Maybe, after all it hid Clark Kent's true identity for yeats.

Anyway, I went to school with a girl very much like Winnie Cooper, horn-rimmed glasses and all, who one day showed up out of no where, speaking in front of the class in a short skirt and leather boots exuding the hot librarian sensuality that JanSmithers/Bayley Quarters nailed perfectly in her role on WKRP.

Anyway, sorry for the interuption.
Proceed with the Ferguson discussion while I go take a cold shower.

I had read he didn't miss a snap.

Guy misses one snap in ten years = bust. Got it.[/QUOTE

Huge loss for the Jets. Good guy, dependable and really solid player - always on the field.

 

[Fixit]

I had read he didn't miss a snap.

Just one, on a trick play.

 

[JetFan79]

I had read he didn't miss a snap.

Technically he did miss one snap. Due to it being some trick formation.
