It's not just there. Pretty much universal among all the sports sites. Florio asks the tough questions here:



This is like asking if cows make milk, or do the Kardashians sleep with black men.

It's not even a question anymore. They do by a fair margin, and good for them. They're all in on the tank job and it's the smartest thing they've done in decades.

Tanking would be a stupid move. That team needs to build a winning culture and a rookie quarterback isn't going to do it for them. Even if they do land a promising young QB, they don't have the coaching to develop him properly.
 
Bowels and Maggagnan....the Bowely Boys

where's Jetfan79? Gotta get the alternate universe spin on THIS latest green apocalypse ...

Harris leaving sucks. Easily my favorite Jet in recent history. Slightly above Mangold. "Lunch pail" no drama/flash football player. Great leader, never in trouble, soft spoken, but a hitting machine on the field.

I hear he was "called back into the office", after being released. Hopefully they're gonna work something out. I mean yeah he's 33 and slower, but he's still damn good. Would've liked him to retire a Jet. Gradually reducing playing time as he helped school some youngin's.

Decker? Lol, screw him. He held out last camp for that POS Fitzpatrick. Don't get me wrong he's a good/great WR (when healthy) and I was fine with him staying. I thought he'd help Hackenberg develop. But no sleep lost because he's leaving. I'm actually more pissed his wife is leaving.

Got your season StubHubs yet?
 
Season tickets (also known as StubHubs) that you'll put all 8 games up on StubHub.....

Oh, na I gave up my tickets 3 years ago now. No time/money for 'em lately while starting a business. Damn things were costing me 11k a year w/o tailgating costs factored in. And then for 1pm games, I'd be up packing the Jet Mobile at 4am and not getting back home 'til after 6pm.

So now it's just random games until I get the time and money to reinvest.

Just as well. If I had been shelling out 11k+ and dedicating 14 hour Sundays to see ****zpatrick these last years, I woulda been pretty damn pissed.

May look back into buying later this year when I'm sure there will be plenty available for good deals.

How would you feel if the Pats sign Harris to a one year deal for short money? :lol:

No inside knowledge, just speculation.

Honestly... happy for him.
 
I was thinking about the Jets recent roster moves and how they did something very similar recently. Idzik came in to clean up the mess that Tannenbaum had made. He cut loose veterans like Santonio Holmes, Mark Sanchez and Bart Scott. The plan was to stay quiet in free agency for a couple years, clean up the salary cap situation and then make a splash in free agency in year 3. The problem was that Idzik was not good at drafting, Rex's coaching style had run it's course and they were the Jets.

Instead of Idzik getting a chance to spend money in free agency, Maccagnan came in as his replacement and did it. Those moves didn't lead to any playoff appearances, so now Maccagnan is doing what his predecessor did and jettisoning veteran players. Maybe the Jets realize it's not good to fire their GMs every 2 years, but if they are trying to lose more than usual this year, the team's record under Maccagnan is going to be terrible.

Not to mention, this tanking effort may not yield the anticipated results. What if Sam Darnold decides to stay in school one more year or he pulls an Elway/Eli Manning and refuses to sign with the Jets? All this work could be for nothing. Again.
 
Bowles and Maccagnan won't survive this. Tanking for the #1 pick sounds good until the team starts getting blown out in embarrassing fashion 40-3 week after week by good teams and 30-10 by average teams. Players either have a tough time with losing or they don't. If they don't, that's worse.

Somewhere around the bye week, players will check out. Somewhere around Thanksgiving a horrible loss will lead to an interim coach. I bet Maccagnan gets fired as soon as the season ends. Do you really need to keep him around to pick Darnold?

And with no o-line and holes all over the roster. Darnold will be lucky not to get killed as a rookie.
 
The "get rid of every name anybody knows" strategy will only be complete once Woody Johnson is confirmed as ambassador to the U.K., or to England, depending whether the Scots "Scexit" to get back into Europe.

There he will handle important matters such as expanding the NFL to England and possibly insulting their mayors after terror attacks.
 
Once a Jete, always a Jete:



http://deadspin.com/report-rex-ryan-flirted-with-bachelorette-party-by-com-1795837296

Per a Busted Coverage interview with one of the women—Jess, the blonde with Rob’s hand resting on her stomach above—Rex told her that she had “nice feet” before winking (winking) and saying, “You know what I like.” Rex was the one who approached the women, who initially had no idea who he was, and Rob eventually joined in for everyone to take a picture. Rex told them he liked the picture and asked for them to text it to him. (Smooth move...)

Both Ryan brothers are married.

Looks like there's no low too low for the toe sniffing douchebag's behavior...

Yeah, there was an article on the BBC that speculated that perhaps the problem in U.S.-U.K. relations was that there isn't a U.S. Ambassador to London, and that, with one in place, he could persuade Washington to behave a bit more sensitively. Then they had a picture of Woody Johnson looking like the douche he is ... SMH!
 
C'mon guys, pick it up. This thread is usually good for a laugh or two but the quality has been steadily declining. I'm very disappointed.

I was asked to back off and let you guys have your fun for a while... but this is just sad. I may have to come back earlier from my break to give y'all a target to go after.

You were gone?

When it comes to football talk the Jete are, by nature, Off Topic.

I bet they still suck.
