I am pointing out the way it rolled out was so, so Jetsy:
First:

Then:
Agreed… I would rather the Jete suck because they suck and not because of injuries…I sincerely hope that Bacon makes a full recovery and then finds a weight that is healthier for him…
Regardless of whether it's an ACL tear or a less serious PCL injury as they're hoping, you definitely want your franchise QB making jukes in traffic 10 yards down the field in the first preseason game.
WOW, how dirty was this???
Seems really Jetsy to bruise your own bones just by planting your foot?
My first guess is this might make him more hesitant to run, but he's a blockhead, totally lacks self-awareness.
So, chances are he will find a way to blow out his tendons sooner or later.
Meanwhile, the Jete franchise stumbles forward with Flacco getting enough time to show the Jete fans how much better he is than their darling first round mo-fo.
Chances are the Jete put him back in ASAP to try to prevent the bad optics then he ends up with a long term injury, and everyone calls out the Jete for ruining their pick, and the whole staff gets shown the door.
So, so Jetsy! Shampoo, rinse, repeat!
Knee surgery, back on the field in 2-4 weeks, what could possibly go wrong?
Such a double-edged sword.Here's the problem with Punky: he has delusions of molding his game after Jim McMahon/Patrick Mahomes/Aaron Rodgers, etc. a la, "free-lancing bad boy hero gunslinger." He hurt his knee last season and now again already, which suggests he'll need greater pocket discipline going forward at least this year. Whether his self-image abides is an open question.
What I'm wondering now is whether Flacco starts the opener. If he does and plays well, what then?
