  1. It should be Kevin O'Connell.
  2. Really hope this isn't true. One of my favorites of all time. Those As teams were part of my childhood.
  3. Who are the 5 guys who said yes? The guy just quit on his team.
  4. Someone wanna explain that to me? I looked up and saw a field goal being kicked like a kickoff?
  5. Here's the deal with this article. Woody may indeed be a terrible owner, but this hit piece is the exact reason Joe Douglas and Robert Saleh should never be in a position of leadership in the NFL again. The article is clearly an attempt by their people to pass the buck onto ownership for their own failures. For example: “They keep on doing the same thing over and over: they change the football people. The football people are not the issue,” one former executive said. “It’s, ‘Hey, I have brain cancer.’ And, ‘Well, just cut off your foot.'”- Calling BS on this one. Joe Douglas drafted Zach Wilson not Woody Johnson. Joe Douglas traded for an about to be 40-year-old Quarterback, not Woody Johnson. The Jets had 8 different top 15 picks in the draft from 2019-2024. Somehow instead of turning any of those picks into a serviceable Quarterback Douglas collected edge rushers, cornerbacks, and wide receivers with no one to pass them the ball. It's clearly a football people thing. On the Jerry Jeudy thing. Yes, its stupid but Jerry Jeudy is the hill Douglas wants to die on? Was Jerry Jeudy going to somehow make the Jets a Super Bowl Contender? It's fairly clear the Jets hired two guys in Douglas and Saleh who lack an appetite for personal responsibility. Rather than take a look in the mirror for how the organization was run under their leadership they decided to cover their butts by blaming the guy who paid them millions of dollars to be failures.
  6. No one needs you to feel bad for them. Feelings are the reason we are in this mess.
  7. Miami isnt going to release him. The dead money for the remainder of this year alone 10.5 million. Not to mention the additional 40 million in dead cap for next year. If they move on from him its going to be with picks in hand.
  8. There were a few instances in the show where I wondered the same. He really needs to put those family demons to bed or it's never going to change. Having some purpose beyond football outside of "self reflection" may also help.
  9. How many seasons running is this now that Mahomes has an ankle or foot ouchy just before the playoffs? He isn't sitting. He will play just fine on it. It will just become more folklore ammunition for Collinsworth to suds up during the tongue bath.
  10. Gonna go out on a limb and say he just may not be that good. He has some name recognition from being a former 2nd round pick but even in his best year he had 77 receptions, 851 yards and 3 touchdowns. He's going on 29 years old and has never eclipsed 1000 yards in a season, and rarely been over 11 yards a reception. I think the Bills probably thought they could get more out of him playing with a great quarterback. The likelihood is they overpaid for potential and will have to live with it through next season.
  11. Just tuned in to see how motivated these guys were after the meeting yesterday. Yikes man.
  12. You got me on this one. I thought his role was being reduced at the end of that year. Ill eat the crow.
  13. Lets not act like Jim Kelly was a puny 1930's quarterback smoking cigarettes at halftime. He was a 6'2 230 pound guy who could have played linebacker in the league. Players dont get to choose what era they play in. That argument should not diminish their greatness.
  14. His peak was 1991 where he threw for 3844 yards, 33 touchdowns and 17 ints in 15 games. Thats 256 yards a game, 2.2 touchdown passes and 1.1 interceptions or a +1.1. For comparison over the last three years on average Josh is 254 yards a game 1.89 touchdown passes and .78 interceptions. Mahomes is 271, 1.9 and .78. Peak Kelly is very comparable to current day Joe Burrow. Easily a top 5-6 quarterback in the league. Kelly did his legacy a great disservice by not starting in the NFL until 1986. Not to mention he was a 23-year-old rookie in the USFL. If he played for the Bills for his entire career, he would likely be in the top 15 in both yards and touchdown passes all time. Allen is likely the best quarterback to ever play here but Kelly is an absolute all time great.
  15. Well to be fair he didn't start to speak out until his snaps were reduced and it was obvious he wasn't going to be back. He wasn't exactly Mr. Team or the image of emotional maturity.
