Captain Hindsight Posted October 12, 2011 Posted October 12, 2011 Derrick Mason was just traded to the Texans for a draft pick Just saw it on the NFLN bottom line. This comes shortly after a report he was unhappy with Offense cordinator Schottenheimer. http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2011/10/11/jets-ship-derrick-mason-to-houston/
Punch Posted October 12, 2011 Posted October 12, 2011 I think everyone in New Jersey is unhappy with Lil' Schotts. Wonder what this says about Andre Johnson's recovery?
Captain Hindsight Posted October 12, 2011 Author Posted October 12, 2011 Bet the Jets wish they had kept Cotchery or B. Smith Being too proud can kill ya
T master Posted October 12, 2011 Posted October 12, 2011 And just think 2 years ago every one here wanted him or was wondering why we didn't pursue him more -- Every thing happens for a reason Thank God !!
DJasper Probincrux III Posted October 12, 2011 Posted October 12, 2011 Being too proud can kill ya Repeating the sins of the father. All defense to the neglect of the offense. Buddy couldn't win for the same reason. Gotta have both phases fellas.
Malazan Posted October 12, 2011 Posted October 12, 2011 Kerley is better than Mason. He had just over 100 yards so far this season and fell down more than he broke tackles.
Zulu Cthulhu Posted October 12, 2011 Posted October 12, 2011 We'll see how the Jets handle this adversity over the next few weeks - they don't seem to be doing too well so far. That said, i don't blame Mason. He has been running on fumes for a couple years. I can't believe he's still playing after Balt coaxed him out of retirement seasons ago.

Had over 1000 yds each season from 2007-09. Last year had 61 catches for 802 yds and 7 tds. Not bad for a guy who's gonna be 38 in January.

Not bad for a guy who's gonna be 38 in January. Those are eye opening stats and thanks for posting them. I don't know what went on in NY between Mason and Shotty but i'm inclined to take Mason's side. Still surprised he's hung around this long after being on the brink of retirement, but i hope he continues to produce in Houston.

Alaska Darin Posted October 12, 2011 Posted October 12, 2011 There have been multiple instances where the television cameras have caught Mason not running routes - either because he doesn't know the offense or because he doesn't care. That's not the recipe for winning and Ryan (and any other coach worth a crap) isn't going to put up with that kind of garbage, no matter who the veteran is.
BuffaloWings Posted October 12, 2011 Posted October 12, 2011 Kerley is better than Mason. He had just over 100 yards so far this season and fell down more than he broke tackles. His game on Sunday was probably Mason's final nail in the coffin. I'll bet Rex showed everyone who's boss by benching Mason, then trading him. That'll show everyone not to open their mouth.

San Jose Bills Fan Posted October 12, 2011 Posted October 12, 2011 Jets vs Miami battle of the poor QB's Correction. Battle of the highly-drafted, poor QB's.
CSBill Posted October 12, 2011 Posted October 12, 2011 (edited) And didn't I see where they just signed Ellis Lankster . . . funny, the second Bills reject the Jets have signed this season, and both defensive players as well. The world is being turned upside down. Link Edited October 12, 2011 by CSBill
Armchair GM Posted October 12, 2011 Posted October 12, 2011 (edited) Bet the Jets wish they had kept Cotchery or B. Smith Being too proud can kill ya It's all about EGO...the only thing worse than having a bunch of egomaniacs as players, is having an eve bigger one as your coach....Ryan, Reid...Bill "man boobs" Bellychick is the exception to the rule.
