Sorry, but turning The Equalizer into a show starring Queen Latifa would be like rebooting John Wick starring Paul Rudd. I'm just not buying it.

I think the name is just an in-common. I don’t think they are related.

the great thing about this game is maybe some of the kids will now understand it's impossible to play QB without a line

I don’t think anyone was suggesting the Jets cut Becton (and Fant for that matter, in the absence of drafting/signing an upgrade) and just go with their backups instead. Because that’s what we’re watching here.

KC’s line held up in the playoffs before this (as did GB’s patchwork pair of tackles until the NFCCG). So it’s also a lesson in how important it is to be able to generate pressure within 3 seconds without blitzing one’s safety.

Imagine being so pathetic you think you recognize someone from a Jets message board from 20 years ago?  20 years ago I was 11. lol

I rethought my position. Math isn't my strong suit on some days. It was 2006, but about 11 years old still sounds about right.

Nothing ever changes. Defense wins championships.

If you can get pressure with 4, you can stop anyone.

Also, if your O Line cam dominate, you cam beat anyone.   It is all in the lines.   I hope the Jets remember this come draft.

I've been way behind live until just now due to several child meltdowns.  

I'll probably get dubbed a Darnold apologist, but isn't it crazy how crappy Mahomes looks when his OL is swiss cheese?

And Mahomes still has Kelce, Hill, CEH, etc with Reid calling the plays.

If the Jets decide to move on from Darnold, fine. Understandable.

But what the sh*ttiest of sh*tty hands he’s been dealt.

Yeah I agree with that.  But I also think it's impossible to get a great read on Darnold or any other young QB with the talent we surround them with.

The thing is he's still making the most of every play. Darnold panics and throws into triple coverage when his line breaks down.

PFF graded the Chargers line 32nd of 32. Didn't affect Herbert all that much.

Mahomes having a bad SB because his line is out with injury doesn't absolve Darnold of sucking. He sucks on his own merits.
