HomeTeam Posted December 21, 2020 Posted December 21, 2020 I've never been a big fan of bashing other teams. I remember how ***** it was when the bills were the laughing stock. This is going to be an unpopular take around here, but since the Bills are looking like they are going to be good for some time, maybe we should act with some decency or we will soon become what we so resented (Patriots fans). 7
Matt_In_NH Posted December 21, 2020 Posted December 21, 2020 The Jets are way better than their record talent wise. Same was true of the Dolphins last year when they were 0-8. The players and the coaching staff (who will get fired soon) could care less about a draft pick, they have pride and dont' want to go 0-16. What could the Jets do here really? I guess they could over rule the coaches and play an OL at QB or something. 1

Expand Useless win, and I don't believe you. Bills fans have been through this before, in the 68 season, when a generational talent named OJ Simpson was going first. A last month one win game wasn't worth losing him. If the Jets lose this "opportunity," it not only has the chance to effect the AFC East for years, it also has the potential to significantly determine head coaching and coordinator jobs for your franchise, and carries a potentially massive trade option hit. Enjoy your win. Immediate gratification is deserved, but it might be the very definition of a pyrrhic victory. Couldn't work out any better for the rest of the division.

Yeah. He had a good college career, but so did Manziel, Rosen, Tebow, hell even Jamarcus Russell Expand On 12/21/2020 at 12:50 AM, Augie said: I don’t mean to be harsh, but that should be an embarrassing post for you. The guys you compared him to were ALL major questions, despite how highly some were drafted. Trevor likely would have been the first pick in the draft after ONE season at Clemson. If you watch and understand the game even a little (and I do NOT claim to be the expert many here are), you will see the obvious difference. Expand Taro's comps weren't very good but the bolded is valid. Who was the last 'can't miss' college QB? The one that comes to my mind is Luck. Didn't exactly set the world on fire. Trevor may very well do just that, but history says it's not the slam dunk folks make it out to be.

muppy Posted December 21, 2020 Posted December 21, 2020 Maybe Im not really understanding this...so the jests are blaming their ills at the feet of Darnold? Are they already finished with him? Apparently according to the consensus opinion here that would be a yes since they are in the Trevor Lawrence draft discussion. I would say the coaching and management are at least as culpable for their ills as san darnold....? am I wrong? what am I missing here? I guess they could always trade Darnold *shrugs*......

Expand Sorry, not trying to dig in and argue, but Luck took teams who had no business being in the playoffs for some pretty good rides. If he had had a better supporting cast and a little more time (in today’s standards, he played about a half of a career), there’s no telling how he might be viewed decades from now. How he is viewed down the road will be very interesting. I do know his twitter stuff was funny as hell!
