Popular Post freestater Posted November 9, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted November 9, 2020 This is the day that can screw up our tank. A reeling pats team and a devious monster willing to throw one to sabotage his hated ex-employers. This is the one I'm worried about. If we can manage to get blown out tonight, that #1 pick is ours baby. 7 1 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The combination of roster, injuries and coaching is one of the best managed tanks in modern day sports. 4 1 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know we're accustomed to the Jets doing the exact opposite of what they're supposed to do. We've spent a life time watching it. It's maddening but this time, luckily, the Jets are so bad that they cant hurt us this time. Fear not, this is the worst Football team in the history of the NFL and they will go 0-16, no questions asked. Sit back and relax. We go this. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It feels kind of greasy and skeezy to do that, so I don't. If it happens by natural selection or death by natural causes or something like that, I guess . . . but pulling a Terry Malloy, eh.

CTJetsFan Posted November 9, 2020 Share Posted November 9, 2020 I'm completely ambivalent. It's a "win-win" or "no lose" situation (puns intended) If they win, I feel good (although I don't want to see Flacco at the helm) and if they lose, there may be a consolation prize after the season is over (Gase gone and #1 pick) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The combination of roster, injuries and coaching is one of the best managed tanks in modern day sports. Pats had half their defense opt out, Gilmore is out and they are down their top 2 WRs. We are horrible, but if Bellichick realizes his season is over I wouldn't put it past him to try less than 100pct tonight and screw the Jets. I will say that his ego will probably prevent him from trying to lose tonight and he may be invigorated after watching Brady look washed last night so hopefully I am wrong.

For me right now, I'm rooting for the complete excoriation and subsequent expulsion from my beloved Jets, of a certain offensive genius. Getting #1 overall is like our reward for enduring the last two years.

Does Gase get crowned King or does he get deposed? If some folks had their way on here, they'd go full crazy Italian and string him up like Benito Mussolini. Probably mutilate his body, too. Gase has to be getting his ass fired, right? I SAID RIGHT? We're old, and ya never know who's hard of herring around here. That pun reminds me of . . . and the tank talk and all . . .
