jetophile Posted October 3, 2020 Share Posted October 3, 2020 I never thought in a temporary lapse of mediocre reason that the Jets would do worse than mediocrity. I was thinking 6-10, MAYYYBBEEEE 7-9 (because think big, I always say)?, but this is just . . . I don't know what this is. I'm not feeling 0-16, though. 2-14 has a lot more snap to it than 4-12. I'm sick of that one. For those who weren't born yet, the Jets once went 3-11 three years in a row (before the NFL instituted a 16 game season). Talk about pre-teen Hell. '75, '76, and then '77, when I officially became a teenager. I mean, I know in many cultures turning 13 is a very heavy symbolic, ritualistic and/or religious Rite of Passage, but what the fck. It wouldn't surprise me if the Jets hold the distinction of being the only team to do that. We hold a lot of chitty records. Chitty Bang Bang, Chitty Chitty Bang Bang we love you! High Chitty, Low Chitty, anywhere we go on Chitty Chitty we depend! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peebag Posted October 3, 2020 Share Posted October 3, 2020 In 2 years, about 95% of the players on the Jets will be doing something other than playing football. I get a worse vibe for this 2020 team than I had for the '96 team. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wish in two years that 95% of me would be doing something else other than hoping this team will be better than a nasty piece of chewed up bubble gum that isn't even Bazooka.

Strength of schedule. Best combined ranking among conference teams in points scored and points allowed. i think this is right, but not 100% sure bud 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Irish Jet Posted October 12, 2020 Share Posted October 12, 2020 Still think we'll find a way to screw it up. And it probably wont take many wins to end up behind Atlanta/NYG/Washington/Jacksonville. Thankfully the NFC East trash have to play each other. The Miami games are what scare me. Over the years our divisional games always throw up bizarre results. If the roles were reversed I'd fully expect Miami to win - In fact they did in similar circumstances last season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adoni Beast Posted October 12, 2020 Share Posted October 12, 2020 Giants still have Washington twice. Falcons have Detroit soon. Our best chances to win are gone and looking ahead were Miami, which no longer look like winnable games. But a bad day of Fitz as we all know can be wild ride so who knows.

Resilient fans like myself attended every home game and stayed until the end. Good thing fans aren't allowed in this season I don't think there would be much of a crowd anyway. I was there for every game and every crappy minute of the 1996 season. I loved it somehow, such was my fandom. As unlikely as it seems, Mims may eventually return and screw up the Lawrence scenario.

I know. We're clearly the worst team. Which will make it worse when we don't get the #1 pick. We did play Denver close tbf. With Brett Rypien going across the country on a short week. LOL.

I'm right on board behind our fearless tank commander Gase but despite all the deficiencies of the Jets, those Jets receivers/TEs outside of Crowder were stone-handed. If they can catch a damn ball before our QBs get IR'ed behind that banged up O line of ours who knows how this season will play out... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GreenFish Posted October 12, 2020 Share Posted October 12, 2020 Remember when some of us thought the Jets were in position to take over the division? Brady is gone, Allen is a bust, and Miami has a young QB coming off an injury. Haha. Dang were we wrong. I was drinking the Green Koolaid with extra sugar before we heard from reporters that we suck. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
