Honestly? Yeah, pretty much.

I resent this. How to Fail the SAT is a 300-level course, minimum.

This is just absolutely brutal to read. Super pumped for the velcro shoe crew to stagger in here and explain that none of this counts because the Jags started rebuilding like four years before us or because Woody ordered Maccagnan to draft bad players or because the fans are too negative or whatever bullsh*t they’re on today

Alabama : college football :: Jets : NFL

sh*tting my pants in public wasn’t fun, but credit where it’s due: I was able to throw those pants away

Well said. I’m also a fan of “we’re not allowed to judge a player until he’s good, and if he never becomes good, it wasn’t his fault anyway.”

Sunday was his 26th NFL start.

Every year is a bad year for free agency.

^this. In principle I love the idea of moving on quickly and getting the bad taste our of our mouths, but I fear the taste is only going to get worse.

This is awesome--thanks for all your hard work on this. You also have the best username of anyone here.

You hate to put a game on one guy, but there’s a solid mathematical argument that he single-handedly cost us the game.

Agreed. It really does seem like the stuff he’s good at is the stuff you can’t teach.

Hard to disagree with any of this. My biggest frustration is that the defense was great until it wasn’t. I know the offense and ST put them in a ton of bad spots, but that last drive was inexcusable. On the plus side, I thought Darnold was impressive. When was the last time a Jets QB threw for 300+ yards on 8+ YPA?

What the actual ****

One thing I’ve always loved about this place is that after a tough loss there will be maybe a half-dozen threads about it, and inevitably three will have titles like “On the bright side...” and the other three will have titles like “Every Person Employed By This Franchise Should Be Publicly Euthanized”
