The Jets scrimmaged yesterday, and their 1st string offenses, and defenses were scorched by their opposing #2s. A common refrain on their message boards was that the #2s were all fighting for their roster spots, and were therefor playing a lot harder. So, I guess it's a bit concerning to me that our #2s aren't playing very hard for their roster spots, and also that our #1s are so insecure in their spots that they're playing so hard during a scrimmage.

How about NOW? Is anybody else missing preseason games?

Although, the Jets 1st string D got scorched by their 2nd string O.

I was thinking the D backfield snuck into his bedroom with bars of soap slung in hand-towels.

You're welcome!

I was joking about this in another thread. But, I suppose if other teams are allowed to have fans present, we should be allowed to startle the crap out of them with a train horn.

NOW is anybody missing preseason games???

OMG, that thread almost deserves its own thread on TBD.

Maybe, maybe not... but maybe...

Seriously. F cats. EDIT: Oh, wait... maybe that wasn't your point...?

Edelman really is an ass. Someone with some better photoshop skills than me needs to retool this image to Cam dressed as Batman, and Jules dressed as Robin in the old 60's Adam West style.

Sure. But, let's not forget how badly McD managed the start of Allen's career. Although, McD, and Beane did pull it together the following season. The Jets seem to have Darnold on a downward trajectory.

It reminds me of an Onion headline I read once: "23 Hour Suicide Watch a Failure."

Sure would be a cool story if he did.

I'm not sure if this applies to this thread, or not, but Moss has been compared to Barry Sanders on this site, and from one comment made by Diggs, Hodgins is utterly NFL-ready. Maybe more to the point of this thread, I'll bet that if this were a normal year, Dane Jackson would be turning heads, and might be this year's David Sills.

My guess is he's a troll from New Jersey.

I had no idea. I used to have DirectTV, became disgusted with their customer service, took the dish down, and chucked it into my recycling. Did not have any problem signing up for it on Roku.

And Cam Newton.

Well, I used to have DirectTV, and then git rid of it. And now I have Roku, and get the Sunday Ticket on that.

I'm not really sure (my wife writes all the checks), but I believe it's the same price as it is on DirectTV. Not cheap, but reliable. I think there are also different options available.

I get the NFL Season Ticket on Roku.

I agree with this in theory, although I don't think they need to be all that "adamant." I think they're confident Ford will continue to develop. I also think Ford grew comfortable in his role as last season progressed. And, if Ford is a better G than T, the same might be said for Williams. I also suspect that the acquisitions for such a deep O-line unit may have more to do with the possibility for attrition due to Covid-19. Offensive, and defensive linemen are certainly the highest risk players on the team as they are in close, face-to-face contact with opposing players, and many of them are technically obese. I would not be surprised if, in practice, they were moving players around the line a lot for this reason. But, I still think, at least for the start of the season, they are going to place a higher value on continuity than they would for other, more typical seasons.

I haven't gone through this entire thread, but I think I may be the only one on this board that thinks Ford is going to stay at RT, and Williams will play RG.

I just wrote in my blog that every team in the league is going to go 0-0-16, a 32-way tie, and instead of the Lombardi Trophy, they're going to hand out participation ribbons. It's in my blog, so it's probably true.

It would be AI bots programmed to mimic Bills fans. Might even see a virtual ***** during the Pats* game.
