Remember, this is still a negotiation and you shouldn’t overplay your hand. It’s our job to look out for your best interests and to let you know that you’re in danger of spending the prime of your career going 4-12 for an unforgiving fanbase.” At press time, the NFLPA announced a push for more lucrative pensions to compensate players who had their careers and futures irreparably damaged after being forced to play for the Jets. 1 1 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EM31 Posted August 20, 2019 Share Posted August 20, 2019 If we don't like the shots, then we (the franchise) should stop painting the target on ourselves. I thought the idea was worth a chuckle. Wonder what L'aveon thought? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ohio State NY Jets fan Posted August 20, 2019 Share Posted August 20, 2019 LOL more funny the less true it is "unforgiving fanbase" this is hilarious, fans of the underdog, most of us just want players who show some effort like the Green Lantern Chez has playoff records, Fitz leads several offensive categories, how hard can it be to be a star player in Jets history, just work for it and many Jets have Superbowl Rings, it's the key to the victory for the last 40 years - no team has won the Lombardi without a former Jet on the team or in front office Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
