varjet Posted November 2, 2015 Share Posted November 2, 2015 That hit from Amerson on Geno looked pretty similar to that from Lewis on Bledsoe, understanding that Lewis was much bigger. Geno is lucky that that hit did not knock him out. That being said, maybe it did if it is his shoulder that is injured. The hit while throwing was to his chest.

jamesr Posted November 3, 2015 Share Posted November 3, 2015 I've only ever seen 4 Jets games in person (three at Meadowlands, and one in London). In all 4 I've seen a QB that wasn't the intended starter : 1st two games I saw were Penny's first two starts (Vikings / Browns in 02) after Vinny was hurt / benched Next game was vs. Miami in 03, when Chad got hurt in preseason and Vinny played London we got Fitzmagic after Geno got IK'd in pre-season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoFlaJets Posted November 3, 2015 Author Share Posted November 3, 2015 Let's all wallow in misery with SoFlaJets! I'm not in misery-I'm just pointing out facts and if you see them as miserable then that's on you Joe. For me football is simply a game that has very little meaning in my everyday life nor do I let even upset me anymore like it used to say 8-9 years ago. The truth is this, just like how the steroid scandal drove baseball and the Yankees from of my heart, Goodell and the Pats cheating and continuing to get away with it along with the whole idiotic fantasy football money thing-well pro football is inches away from the same fate for this once diehard sports fan. When I was a kid and all through high school my dream was to be a sports cartoonist like the ones we used to see in the Daily News back in the 60's and 70's Bill Gallo, Bruce Stark was my hero along with Mickey and Joe Willie. Now I can watch a game and disconnect myself emotionally from it. So letting something as stupid as that make ME miserable? You have no idea of what my life is like bro... I've never once put you down and have supported you and complimented you and even asked Max to consider letting you write articles here before you used to write here at JN.

I canceled the Sunday Ticket this year, and when they asked why I made them write down "because Tom Brady lied to me." your post is dead on SoFla. Even worse than the fact that the Jets have had 14 different QBs is that they are in the division with either the greatest QB of all time or the biggest cheater of all time. And neither of those outcomes is good. We will spend all this time and energy debating Geno vs Fitz vs Petty vs whoever but in the end they are in the division with a juggernaut. There are contenders and pretenders in this league and it's clear where the Jets fall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AzogtheDefiler Posted November 3, 2015 Share Posted November 3, 2015 Me thinks Brady is proving this season that the "cheating" card is vastly overplayed. Instead of worrying about bugs, footballs and videos we should have been worried about the pass rush, Gronk, Brady, Edelman and Amendola. Priorities.

There are contenders and pretenders in this league and it's clear where the Jets fall. The simple fact of the matter is the game has changed so much since the turn of the century as to make it nearly unrecognizable from what it was before. From the game we have invested so much of our hearts, our time and not to mention all of the money that a guy like you Matt has spent pursuing what you loved. All of those trips to the combines combines and individual school workouts in becoming a very well respected go-to guy when it came to draft days. From being a person who did all of the work that you have done all the reports you have written at Draft Daddy to now being a person who has cancelled Sunday Ticket. Maybe the game has passed us by bro, there used to be a purity to it and every team was looked upon and treated pretty much the same with a few slight cases of threats being levied to refs by bullies like Shula. Now certain players can be suspended for stuff that has nothing to do with the game of football while the cheating Brady and his compatriots can mess with game balls, get caught, get suspended and then hire a lawyer and have it thrown out-there is no justice in the game anymore.

Not because of the money, but because I don't have faith in the fair outcomes of these games. It's like boxing now. The physical feats are real and people get hurt but the outcomes are set up so that the NFL can sell a million Tom Brady jerseys in London. The Pats are their manchester united. Which makes the Jets something like Everton. Scrappy lovable losers who exist purely to get beat by manchester united 9 times out of 10. i just can't have optimistic expectations anymore. That this team will win anything significant. Not while Brady is in the division. if they get good enough they will be on the playoffs and Super bowl and that tv is always free. Paying to watch them out of market lose to jacksonville isn't a smart purchase. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
