Dolfan in NYC Posted October 27, 2014 Share Posted October 27, 2014 Felt compelled to start this early since the Jets have already made news for next week: Michael Vick will start on Sunday at the Chiefs (barring a GM or Owner veto). Which of course means there will be a GM or owner veto. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geno had more INT's than completions. . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hammerva Posted October 28, 2014 Share Posted October 28, 2014 Somebody check on Mike Francesa. I just watched the Rich Eisen 11 minute rant on the Jets on NFL Now and probably not as delusional but quite fun. Starting to wonder if the Jets have the most major sports radio guys that they are considered fans of. Eisen, Francesa, Mike Greenberg. I have to think either Boomer or Carton is one. Not like being a Jets fans is the chic thing in the NFL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J.T. Posted October 28, 2014 Share Posted October 28, 2014 Apparently the Giants best way to gain in the standings is to not play I am pretty sure that if I tell my girlfriend this, it will cost me dinner at Chopstix this weekend. I think Steelers are playing the hated Ravens this week. I expect no less than six of the Steeler players to be injured if they win or if they lose, it will be by no less than three touchdowns. Fucking Ravens.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dolfan in NYC Posted October 28, 2014 Author Share Posted October 28, 2014 So it seems putting Romo back into the game wasn't Garrett's idea. “I was here during the tail end of the examination and knew he planed to come back out and play if he were needed,” Jones said, via Clarence Hill of the Fort Worth Star Telegram. “Of course he was needed. I felt good that he could come back out. When he saw the opportunity he did. I told Jason that he would be back in.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
APO Posted October 28, 2014 Share Posted October 28, 2014 I'd have been more shocked if he didn't go back in. Gregg Rosenthal was being a dipshit on Twitter saying that people who have no rooting interest in the game shouldn't be bitching about the obvious missed holding call in the endzone that would've been a game-ending safety. Where does NFL Network find these morons? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FluffSnackwell Posted October 28, 2014 Share Posted October 28, 2014 I do feel the need to point one of those drives Weeden engineered was actually NOT putting the ball in the end zone after DeMarco's 51-yard run and another run to get the ball to the 6-yard line.

Red is Dead Posted October 29, 2014 Share Posted October 29, 2014 Dont know if it was covered in the week 8 thread... May I ask what you thought of watching the early game?

To be honest I missed everything until the fourth quarter because of that. I can't believe we now have pre-noon sports TV conflicts to consider. We are the greatest of societies. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dewar Posted October 29, 2014 Share Posted October 29, 2014 The Sunday morning game sucked for at least 2 1/2 quarters anyway. I turned it on when Newcastle/Spurs ended and it was 21-0. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Death From Above Posted October 29, 2014 Share Posted October 29, 2014 An NFL game sucking for 2 1/2 quarters isn't really noteworthy though, that's only a bit over par. And yet we just cannot help ourselves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GojiColin Posted October 29, 2014 Share Posted October 29, 2014 Well the deadline for trades may have passed, but the deadline for sucking is still weeks away! It's time for: The Top of the Bottom: The Road to the Goodell Trophy! Now with 100% less accusing people of being Gonzalez! To the rankings! 1) 0-7 Oakland 2) 1-7 Jacksonville 3) 1-7 New York (Allegedly) Football Jets 4) 1-6 Tampa Bay 5) 2-6 Tennessee 6) 2-6 Atlanta 7) 2-5 St. Louis 8) 3-5 Minnesota 9) 3-5 Washington 10) 3-5 Chicago As you can see, the usual suspects are still on the list, just a few positions have changed. Chicago may be at number 10, but they made a strong case for belonging on this list after that game with the New England Patriots. The Vikings hurt their chances by letting the Bucs fumble their way to failure in overtime; will Minnesota be able to bounce back from such a crushing victory? The Jag-u-wires (TM Jeremy Clarkson) certainly proved that they know how to suck, but they are nothing compared to the Mega Maid that is Oakland right now! Looking at our top five team's schedules, weeks 10 and 11 will be a big test for the Bucs as they face Atlanta and Washington in consecutive games. Personally I am pretty confident in their ability to not win those. We then move to week 13 which is massive as both Oakland and St. Louis go head to head in a match that could shake up the rankings considerably. Week 14 and 15 could be interesting as well as the Jets play the Vikings and Titans back to back, if they manage to lose both that would surely solidify their bid for their next QB to ruin. Week 16 will see round two of the Titans and Jags, a game Jacksonville only lost by 2 points; could the Jags stumble into another win? So tune in next week to see if there are any major upsets and buckle in because we are in for a roller coaster ride to the oh so bitter end! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
