Lost in the McElroy hoopla is how much the Jets miss Kerry Rhodes.

2 INT's, 3 pass deflected, 6 tackles, forced fumble, big hits.

Guys a beast. Him and Landry would look great together.

i was laughing to myself how no one brought up his beast of a game........he was a big time lightning rod around here

I think this was the best game he's played since the year before he was traded. Dude has a boatload of talent, that was never a question, his commitment was the problem we he was jettisoned.

i defended him for years and until 2012 they never had a better safety. he was never a sure tackler and that's what Rex and Pettine can't abide. But Landry and Bell signings sured up the corp. Could have used him for the 3 years prior to that tho...

That's your boy Rex, the worst talent evaluator in the history of NFL coaches

[Blackout]

but Kerry Rhodes couldn't make Belichicks team, remember?

[tEYbow]

If a WR was wide open and made two easy catches, we wouldn't be celebrating that player.

That's essentially what Rhodes did, as Sanchez threw the ball right to him twice.

Not that he didn't have an awesome game, but those picks were pitch and catch. The FF was the impressive play.

Sometimes you just don't know what you've got until it's gone. Though maybe he's less distracted in Arizona than he seemed to be in NY.

That POS has loose balls bounce up off the ground into his hands and 95+% of his picks are thrown right at his numbers. His "monster" hit on Bell yesterday was a situation where he circumstantially was only a couple feet away and couldn't avoid contact so he dropped his shoulder and fell into him.
Prior to Sanchez getting benched yesterday - the only positive thing of this season was having that fkweed on the Cardinals.

KR plays when he wants to, if he played like that all the time he'd still be a Jet.

[JOJOTOWNSELL]

it seems the Jets have a rich history of letting defensive players go that have success elsewhere......much more so than offensive players......J Abraham, J Lageman, J Farrior, Hugh Douglas, J Vilma, K Rhodes........of all of them only Abe and Rhodes had any success here relative to the rest of their carreers

Vilma didn't have any success as a Jet? What?

he did but i think he played his better ball as a Saint

I still think this might leave him a few steps short of Canton bro ...


Arizona Cardinals

On March 6, 2010, Rhodes was traded from the New York Jets to the Arizona Cardinals for a 2010 4th round pick and a 2011 7th round pick.^[3]
Kerry started and played in all 16 regular season games of the 2010-2011 season for the Arizona Cardinals, recording a total of 90 tackles, 78 solo, 12 assists, 1 sack, 12 passes deflected, 4 interceptions returned for a total of 174 yards, longest returned for 66 yards and 4 fumble recoveries. On December 31, 2010, Kerry was awarded The Lloyd Herberg MVP award for the 2010-2011 season by the Arizona chapter of the Pro Football Writers Association.
On Feb 4th, 2011, the Kentucky Chapter of National Football League Players Association Hall announced their new class of 2011. The 2011 Inductees of the hall include players who best represent the sport during 5 decades. Representing for the decade class of 2000 was Kerry Rhodes of University of Louisville, the NY Jets and Arizona Cardinals. The ninth annual induction ceremony will take place on June 24, 2011 at Lexington Opera House.

[Afinogenov]

If there was one game for Kerry to get up for in his entire career, could be yesterday's.

He probably can't wait for vacation now

[KSJets]

The people complaining now about Rhodes having a good game and Rex being incompetent are probably the same people who were saying Rhodes was no good when he was traded.

Rhodes meh. JOHNNY ABE? What a shame. We have not had a player even close to him rushing the passer. ****ing shame.

[BroadwayJoe12]

I find it quite interesting that the same people lauding Rhodes for doing this against our pathetically abysmal offense are the same that crucify Rex for being happy with what our defense did to Arizona's offense.

Stop this sh*t right now.
