  1. RIP Coach Knapp. What's mind boggling to me is that there are thousands of motor vehicle related deaths every year, this is only one. It's infinitely safer to fly in a plane than it is to get to the airport! Cool video I just watched about Waymo autonomous vehicles. Something like this might just have saved Knapp's life. Sorry for hijacking this thread a bit.
  2. That was painful to watch because it's so true. Here's to hoping Saleh and Douglas bring this team to the promise land. Surely it's gotta be our turn? Even a broken clock is right twice a day.
  3. I read Lac Edwards biggest plus was hang time. But as we all saw, he averaged about one stinker punt per game. Also Mann is better at directional "coffin corner" punts. In JD we trust. Hope we find a better kicker.
  4. I feel good about Moses, err I mean Joe Douglas' draft. Hoping this will show positive results on the field, and that there will be a virus-free NFL season. We still need a kicker!
  5. Don't understand why kicking and punting isn't combined. Seems like a waste of a roster spot to have two specialty positions that are similar. Also do we really need a long snapper? Can't the normal center handle this???
  6. I read that Edwards best feature was long hang time, but would have a stinker punt about once per game. Also not the most accurate at directional "coffin corner" kicks. Mann is all that and a bag of chips. Hope we find a good long term kicker, as that needs attention too.
  7. And when are they gonna modernize the ball placement? I can't believe that with all the cool tech they've added (yellow first down line, down and distance graphic on the field, etc) they haven't yet put sensors in the football so they can track it down to millimeters. Getting a crew to come onto the field with chains is about as outdated a method as it gets. And to those 'purists' who don't want to change anything, tough titties! ?
  8. Everybody here keeps saying how the Pats always get favorable calls from the refs. Is there any actual statistical evidence of this? Are penalties being tracked somewhere? Methinks there would have been a "penalty-gate" scandal by now if it were a real thing.
  9. Sam Darnold counted to infinity. Twice. When Sam Darnold enters a room, he doesn't turn the lights on, he turns the dark off. Sam Darnold can strangle you with a cordless phone. When Sam Darnold gives you the finger, he's telling you how many seconds you have left to live. Once a cobra bit Sam Darnold' leg. After five days of excruciating pain, the cobra died. When the Boogeyman goes to sleep every night he checks his closet for Sam Darnold. Sam Darnold can hear faster than the speed of sound. Sam Darnold beat Halo 1, 2, and 3 on Legendary with a broken Guitar Hero controller.
  10. If the Jets fans could decide when to fire the head coach, we'd have a new head coach every week except in rare cases where we actually won a game. We've waited 50 years, what's another 3 years? All we are saying is give Gase and Douglas a chance.
  11. Haven't you heard? Jets picked up John Franklin Myers off waivers. He played for the Rams last year. We're going to a 4-3. I hope this makes up for the lack of a proper edge rusher. https://www.ganggreennation.com/2019/9/1/20843700/john-franklin-myers-welcome-to-the-jets
  12. Just find a streaming service that provides the NY CBS/NBC/ABC/FOX channels. Then you are guaranteed to watch the Jets broadcast. For example, Hulu, FuboTV, Sling, YouTube, and of course the many other not-so-legal ones. If you live outside the NY area, you may also need to pay for a vpn or web proxy that will make it look like you are in NY. For example: HideMyAss.com
  13. RIP! Loved him and Dawson on the Inside the NFL show. As the story goes, he was diagnosed with CTE some years ago. He donated his brain to science for CTE studies. Tough question for all: Would you have traded places with this man? Successful career in football, TV and business, but have your son be a quadriplegic due to football, and you dying before your time due to CTE? Tough call for me.
