The Jags were cool for like 2 years in the 1990s when they were winning with Brunell right after expansion.  Maybe he got hooked in that window.

LOL, I'd venture to say if we draft Trevor Lawrence this will not be the reaction

I think JJ and Evan would be great together. 

I might get some hate but I also really liked Kim Jones when he would fill in for people. Feel like I havent heard her on in awhile though. I would take her over Maggie Gray in a heart beat. That early afternoon show has been HORRIBLE since the day CMB started and it hasnt gotten any better with the guys they've stuck with Maggie since the original show fell apart. 

I agree that Kim Jones > Maggie Gray.  Maggie seems to defend bad points just for the sake of argument a lot of the time, and it's annoying.

I miss Joe & Evan and how they would invite national and local beat writers on to talk like most sports talk radios shows. The new Carton show doesn’t do that for some reason.

Instead of bringing in new talent they’ve given up on sports on afternoon drive and are trying to do an Imus/Stern more generic thing instead. Roberts is wasted in this format.

I think Boomer, Gio, & Carton in the morning would be best.  And then try to go traditional sports for afternoon drive.  I’d prefer JJ and Evan to Carton and Evan in the afternoon.

there is a true dearth of good sports talk radio shows right now...like maybe the worst era in sports radio history?

Radio doesn’t pay unless you get to the top.  All the talent goes to TV. That’s why Bart Scott went to ESPN, so he could get more TV appearances 

[Carton and Roberts: THE Worst Show in WFAN History]

Carton belongs on mornings.  His Z Morning Zoo routine just feels out of place on afternoon drive.  I miss hardcore sports talk.

[Lawrence, but Etienne]

Would love Etienne but I think the late 1st and #33 hopefully is better spent on OL, CB, or Edge.

Good luck with that. 

Competition will be very steep for both guys. 

We'd be very lucky to get one of them. 

 

Jets are top 3 in cap space available, maybe even #1 after cuts, so.......sometimes you just have to overpay and if we're gonna do it I'd do it for a durable guy like Robinson.

[I'd love to see Joe Douglas sign both of Allen Robinson and JuJu Smith-Schuster (before heading into the draft).]

They need to back up the Brinks truck for Allen Robinson.

I legit thought this was a joke about a running back whose skillset was a cross between Saquan Barkley and Rodney Hampton

[So, some are saying that Belichick may purposely lay down against the Jets]

Belichick coukd send eleven folding chairs out on defense and Darnold would still find a way to panic-throw for a wee 127 yards and two INTs

3rd and 5....Gase calls for a WR screen, Jeff Smith catches it and runs 4 yards before he trips on a folding chair leg.  4th and 1 out comes Braden Mann to punt.

[So, some are saying that Belichick may purposely lay down against the Jets]

I can see it if the Pats are eliminated from the playoffs.  Belichick knows playing his practice squad one week for "evaluation" could keep the highest rated QB prospect in years out of his division.  Seems like a worthy strategy given the payoff.

The Jets need to be prepared.  Week 17 should be James Morgan week.  No Darnold, don't risk it because he might play well against scrubs.  Also try to park Quinnen and Becton on IR for that game.

[Can someone please explain Dakota Dozier to me?]

1 hour ago, Alka said:

Dozier was drafted by the Jets, right?  We either got rid of him, or let him walk.  I don't think the Jets ever believed in him.

Yesterday, the announcers for the game were saying how Seattle was fortunate to have Dozier back in the lineup, and how he is a big upgrade to whoever was in at right tackle before him.

I continue to scratch my head over players that are let go or we just discard (Andre Roberts) as another example, and they thrive elsewhere.

This is just so typical of the Jets the past decade.

Draft a player, he never plays well with the Jets, then goes to another team and finally turns into something.

A reflection of a terrible front office that can't even evaluate the talent on their own roster.  The revolving door of coaching regimes has really hurt too, as we've had good players that were cast aside in new regimes for whatever reason.

This is why nobody in the NFL respects this organization anymore, Woody and his minions don't know their ass from their elbow.

[Game Observations (SEA)]

Good points but Rex Ryan as anything other than DC would not be a good thing.  He got stale after 2-3 years in NY and was terrible in Buffalo.  We need a CEO who can oversee the whole team and build a program, even the media seems to have reached a consensus that's what we need.

How so?  

a 21 yr old Sam was given to a guy who was supposed to be a guru. CJ bought into it 100%. Peyton Manning lobbied for him.  He never even hired a QB coach when his job was to elevate Sam Darnold.  It's not even debatable imo.  Sam not playing well at this point is what it is, but man did we screw him by hiring Gase and allowing him to label Loggains his OC and not hiring a coach to help groom our #1 asset.  It's all ego man. Gase is the absolute worst and the Johnsons a pu$$ies for keeping him around. The team absolutely hates him. 

And the guy can't even  figure out that a QB sneak on 4th and 1 works.  

OK, not disagreeing with you on Gase, but also, a real franchise QB would've had the presence of mind to tap the center's rear and audible to a sneak on his own.

Who else are ya gonna put it on?  a 21 yr old kid on his 2nd HC in two years?  Or the QB Whisperer, Guru and Offensive Genius.  We are also the only team without a QB coach.  

Come on 

Definitely Gase is a big part of it but Sam also needs to take matters into his own hands a little

[Sam never learned what to do pre-snap]

Have you ever seen Sam give a hard dummy count to see where the blitz is coming from so he could audible away from it?  Just feels like he goes through the motions presnap.  By year 3 he should have been further along than this and I can’t just put it on the Jets.  

[Carton to host "responsible" gambling radio show]

I miss listening to actual sports on afternoon drive without Carton trying to turn it into the radio variety hour.  Congrats WFAN you've finally turned me into an ESPN listener, and those guys aren't that good either.

Say what you will about Benigno, he and Roberts were still way better than this.

[Dabo Swinney on with Rich Eisen]

Come with him, Dabo

[Gase says he made the decision to fire Williams]

It's so comical that the worst HC in football who should have been fired like 8 weeks ago is now firing others for something he had the power to overrule during the game.

Clock management didn't lose us that game; the stupid HB pass did... 

The NFL screwed us because it was a horrible referee decision (was really an incomplete pass) but the play call was awful and caused us the playoffs (week 17). 

I remember watching this game @ 12 years old and being absolutely heartbroken as a kid and this game still bothers me to this day when I think about it.

I think you're crossing up your traumatic HB pass memories here

[2004 Jets vs Ravens]

The first game Quincy Carter started in place of Chad, if I remember correctly.

The game will forever be remembered for the ill-timed Lamont Jordan halfback pass call in the red zone, which was easily picked off by Ed Reed in his prime and returned for a TD.

Jets were a really good team that year but Chad's shoulder injury ruined the run.
