Just watched it. Nothing much to say except: hey, at least it’s something about the Jets during this 6 week lull. Also, Todd seems like he’s dropping some serious weight. Wonder if he’s doing the lapband/all liquid diet of the 2011 Rex.

Better start rooting for a different team then, because soon, Darnold will be the best. BOOM.

To: John Madden CC: Electronic Arts Sports From: Ethan Albright Re: Being the worst rated player on Madden ‘07 Hi, John, my name is Ethan Albright. I play line for the Washington Redskins. You probably already knew that, so I’ll continue. I am writing in regards to the overall player rating of 53 that I have received in Madden NFL Football 2007. I feel that this is ******* bullsh*t and you should kiss my mother-******* ass. Ahmed Carroll was rated a 78 and the Packers just cut his ass on a Tuesday morning after his performance in a Monday night game. That is pretty terrible. The worst part is that his overall rating was sniffing 80. You know what, John? Two can play this game. I rate you a ******* 12. I rate you a ******* 12 in Ethan Albright Football 2000-ever… except for in the category of ball-licking. That is where I will spot you a 98 rating. You will receive this score because I will never give your blubbery ass a 99 in any category. Take that, pencil-dick. Go do Al Micheals or something. Boom. Score one for Red Beard. It’s also pretty wonderful that my awareness rating was 59. You make it sound like I wake up in the morning, helplessly sh*t and piss myself, then lose three of my teeth before I discover that I am trying to eat a rock for breakfast. ****, John, I understand you saying that I am slow and lacking athleticism, but a rating like this pretty much labels me as retarded. Rod “He Hate Me” Smart has a 52 in this category. Electronic Arts is saying that seven rating points separate me and the breathing embodiment of the perfect oxymoron. Rod Smart struggled to arrange words in sentence form. Cave men had better hold of the English language. The only actions that separate point values of ignorance at this embarrassing level are things like using your own toothbrush to wipe your ass. I basically edged out Rod by my lack of sh*t teeth. If I take a night school class, could you bump me up to a 60? I guess I just can’t fathom the fact that I am the absolute worst player rated out of the entire NFL. ****, man, there are some sh*tty guys out there. Amongst everyone, I was rated the absolute worst. I have received the impression that you feel that I am lacking in the agility category. I should consider a walk through my living room where I don’t crash trough a wall or kick over furniture a resounding success. My agility rating on your game is 33. It makes it sound like I just topple over if I start walking too fast. Ted Washington is rated a 40 in agility. He is listed at 365 pounds. If Ted Washington tied a white lady up and made her wear a metal bikini, he’d look just like Jabba the Hut. Red Alert! John, you are such a ******* dick. I also noticed that my kick return rating was a 0. I was rated a ******* zero? So you feel that I shouldn’t even receive a 10, or even a 5? You are pretty much saying that I couldn’t even fall forward on a ball kicked in my direction. I would just stand there and let the ball bounce off of my ******* face. **** that, John, I returned an onside kick 6 yards in 2002. You should have just slapped a - 4 on me and had the EA staff ambush me with paintball guns. Finally, I would like to comment on an unlikely topic, my pass coverage ratings. I see that I am a better at man-to-man coverage (31) than zone (21). **** me sideways with a lunchbox. Where did these scores even come from? How much time is spent coming up with the pass coverage ratings of offensive lineman? Can I have that job? Let’s see here, I think that Orlando Pace would be slightly better at jumping intermediate routes than Larry Allen. While I’m at it, I can assign the passing ratings for offensive lineman as well. I can use mine as a guide. I was rated with a throwing power of 17 and accuracy of 16. Orlando Pace is has a 22 power and 17 accuracy rating. Did someone at EA really put time into figuring out that Orlando Pace edges out Ethan Albright in both throwing power and accuracy? I will challenge him any day. My horrible passer ratings are of greatest misfortune to my son, Red Beard Jr. The poor boy is not only hideously ugly and covered by freakishly large freckles. He also has to suffer through playing catch with me and my senile-elderly-woman-type passer ratings. A session of tossing the pigskin usually consists of me missing my son by thirty yards in sporadic directions. I led him in front of a fire truck once and my wife kicked my ass. This is because of my 76 toughness rating. Yes, a 76 is far better than the other ratings, but I’m a ******* lineman, damn it. NFL Linemen are considered to be synonymous with toughness. According to your game, I am a retarded, uncoordinated, pussy-ass ****wad that can’t fall on a kickoff, throw, or spell. I am, however, slightly better at manning up on a receiver than dropping into zone coverage. You lose your mind more and more each year, old man. When I'm not snapping balls, I snap necks. **** you, John. Please expect to find red pubes in various meals you consume for the rest of your life. If you **** with Ethan Albright, you call down the thunder. Rot in Hell, Ethan Albright

Ok, and I'm just saying that losing 26-6 to the pats wasn't particularly exciting either just because brady was playing. Regarding beating the man....we have brady, including when it mattered in the playoffs. Regardless, if Darnold is winning playoff games, you're not gonna give a sh*t which man we're beating. They'll all be exciting.

As opposed to what? The 26-6 loss we took against the Pats last year? The guy I quoted essentially said that he wanted brady to continue to play just so he can say it's an "exciting" game, even though most of our games against them are decided before we get to the 4Q. And you're basically saying that the Jets winning games was boring. I'm not sure where to go from here. Do I tell you guys to find something else that excites you if you don't want to see Darnold tearing up the league? Like, what was the point of this?

1) We "bested" brady in the playoffs at his place when we were the 6th seed and they were the 1 seed after going 14-2. We also have beaten him in regular season games too. And we would never play him in the super bowl. So I have no idea what you mean by never having "bested brady" 2) **** brady. **** the pats. Jets games will always be exciting if you're rooting for the Jets to win.

While you’re right, I didn’t wanna go full savage on a Monday morning. Gotta throw dbate and shane a bone for still pumping Idzik after all these years, even in the face of facts. The pathetic part is that I’ve had to go so low as to using Mac or Jamal Adams as comps to point out just how relatively awful Idzik was.

So you’re saying that all of those things take precedence over you admitting Idzik sucked? Thats legit. If nothing else, props.

Ooh, that’s a fun game. QQ: were there any NFL caliber players on the board when Idzik was picking, and can you play the exact same game with Idzik’s 12 picks and get different results? Asking for a friend.

I call your favorite stat, and raise. My favorite: Jamal Adams > Σ Idzik’s 19 picks.

No no, thank you for that. The truly sh*tty part for you is that Mac will go down as the Jets savior while Idzik will always and forever be trash who will never again be trusted to lead anything because he has shown complete ineptitude the one time he got his shot. But thanks for all that 2015 cap space, bruh!

The above feels like listening to Lefty’s explanation on Saturday. Deliberately disingenuous and passing the buck. The only time Idzik was big man on campus, he produced (1) a guy jerking off in a parking lot loaded on synthetic weed, and (2) a guy going 900mph on a highway while high and with a child in the car, (3) 19 picks [5 in the first two rounds] with the only notable player being an 800 yard WR who hasn’t played a single snap during the Oompa Loompa administration.

Fair enough. I don't necessarily find the negative in the Giants loving and taking Barkley either...as a standalone pick. However, I find it in the lost opportunity cost of selecting a potential top 10 QB for the next 10-12 years; especially given Eli's age and productivity. That was the intent of my original post. Of course it is too early to make any judgement on the Giants, just as it is too early to make any judgement on any player or team in the 2018 draft. But talking about the Giants strategy and how bad it was (IMO) is not casting judgement on the player's careers before they happen.

Awesome, awesome match. From the first minute till the final whistle. Humblebrag: I called top right on a curve for the free kick on the final goal.

I value a QB over an RB. If both players are HoF, GOATs at their position when they retire, I'm taking the QB over the RB every single time. I don't really understand your position. Are you saying that you would have taken Barkley over your choice of QB?
