**** Official New York Jets vs Philadelphia Eagles Game Thread ****

[war ensemble]

Today we'll see who can win that illustrious third quarterback spot -- Matt Simms or Greg McElroy. The winner just may be the one who can score a touchdown. This game will decide some of those fringe roster spots and who makes the practice squad. With players' careers on the line, should be fun to watch!

J-E-T-S JETS JETS JETS!!!

By the way disappointing performance for all around to have to wake up in the morning to no game thread! The starters may not be playing but someone has to show up!

Didn't realize it was today, either.

I say McElroy throws a TD pass and we get one on defense.

[Jetsfan80]

Why is Tebow not playing at all? You don't protect a backup QB from injury.

[johnny utah]

Is this going to be worth staying up til 4.00 am for ?

[Ranick10]

I think McElroy scores 3TDs and makes Jets fans crazy for him.

[JetsFanInDenver]

Yup today is the day we find out if our team's future UPS drivers are better than the Eagles future UPS drivers!

Tell me about it. People used to fight to start this thread. Pick up your game people.

Dang, I will not get it live out here. Oddly enough, a local SoCal radio station has been airing all the Jets' games since last year, presumably for all the Sanchez aficionados. I guess I'll have to catch the replay on SNY. I am looking for an offensive juggernaut.

It's just re-season ambivalence Max. Everyone will be rabid in a week.

I was going to start it, but figured there were rules on who did what.

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

[Bleedin Green]

Interesting to see that Ellis got the game off too. I guess after this preseason he's about as close as you can get to being a starter without actually being one.

[Bleedin Green]

Coples killing that sh*t.

[Vicious89x]

Quick, someone find those whining posts when Coples was picked.

[war ensemble]

McElroy believes his arm strength is better! And he scrambles like Falcons-style Mike Vick! SUPERBOWL!!!!!

[dbatesman]

What the hell is with Opie scrambling so much?

That drop should explain it...

[war ensemble]

Quinton Coples is high as ****, lol.

[T0mShane]

Quinton Coples is high as ****, lol.

Did he fall asleep at the end of that interview?

[Bleedin Green]

Nice run from McKnight there, and some power along with it.

[T0mShane]

It'd be really awesome if Jason Smith worked out here. Like, really awesome.

[T0mShane]

Nice run from McKnight there, and some power along with it.

McKnight must drive all his coaches insane. He can do everything you want a back to do, but never, ever strings two consecutive good plays together.

[SayNoToDMC]

What about your starting punt protector?

[T0mShane]

McElroy is the only Jets QB that doesn't panic when his first option gets taken away. Ganaway looked like his fourth read on that play.

[jetscanes331]

Loving what I'm seeing from Powell.

[T0mShane]

Quick, someone find those whining posts when Coples was picked.

FTR, I equivocated.

[T0mShane]

God I love Bill Parcells.

[Matt39]

is this Omar Epps dude making the team?

[Matt39]

oh, go for it. who cares

[ZachEY]

A run on 3rd and 12? SHOTTENHEIMER?

[dbatesman]

This is the "hmmmmmmm" post.

[Bleedin Green]

holy sh*t... hell of a play from McElroy there.

McElroy >>>>> Tebow

[ZachEY]

Wow. Is it too soon to dub this "The Drive"?
