I like that saying " Show me a happy loser and I'll show you a loser" If Jets fans weren't so insecure, they wouldn't even have a thread about Belichick here. Pats fans understand the animosity Jets fans have for Bill. He left you at the altar. Pats went on to be a force for better part of a decade. He is retooling his team on the fly after losing Harrison and Bruschi. And what HC in his right mind would trade a HOF DL for a future first rounder, lose his ROY LB for a few games, and still beat 2 top NFL teams back to back? You thought stealing his DC would be payback, but it backfired. Us Pats fans feel your pain.
remember after the Jets-Pats wildcard game and he threw a camera man out of the way to hug Mangini? Then the next time the two teams played Mangini snitched on him?
Yeah, you feel our pain and do everything you can to add insult to injury. That's why, when the jets eventually do overcome you scumbags, there will be absolutely no class shown towards any Patriot fan. Than again...by then..all the alleged "patriot fans" will pack their brady jersey deep into their closets along w/ their worn out Faulk, Terrell Davis, Aikman and Joe Montana Jersies. You beat 2 top teams back- to-back but you looked awfully ordinary against a below average Bills team, and were made to look very ineffective by a supposed "Inferior" jets team. We don't need a former DC to get payback...all the payback we need is seeing BB and co. pouting off the field after playing us, which we have accomplished 2 meetings in a row. Us Jet fans feel Bellichick's pain...we just remember the year 2000 and don't give a shit.
http://content.usatoday.com/communities/thehuddle/post/2009/09/rex-ryan-he-and-bill-belichick-talked-after-quick-handshake-in-week-2/1 I can respond and maybe call you guys "faggots" and interesting and intelligent things like that... (BTW, "JetDynasty," nice name... and way to support the notion that Jet fans are just below WNBA fans on the food chain.) But the worst thing I can say: When it comes to this handshake thing, you're worse than Colts fans. They shook hands... Ryan is happy... the rest of you should just get over it.
Yep, I agree. Pats looked awful against a bad Bills team and a supposedly inferior ( your words not mine) Jets team. Brady was still rusty after a year off and was tentative overthrowing wide open recievers.Defense was still getting its act together after losing Harrison,Bruschi,Seymour, Hobbs and Mayo. ( I forgot Vrabel, thanks for your years of loyal play Mike) I'd say they have come back nicely and look 100% better than their first 2 games. 3-1 after completely retooling their defense with wins against previously undefeated Atlanta and Ravens. Jets QB is a rookie and will struggle at times as he did against NO. Long term, Jets will be fine. In the meantime, they have the unfortunate luck to be in the same division as the Pats who have a Pro Bowl QB and HOF Coach and know how to win. Nothing wrong with second place. Pats were there last year with 11 wins.
Now I gave the Saints credit for kicking our asses but I watched a good portion of your game yesterday and baltimore shot itself in the foot. Flacco's RZ pick was as bad as Sanchez's and the roughing calls against the Ravens ended in 14 points for the Pats. Obviiously the Pats capitalized on Baltimore's mistakes which is what still makes them a very good team but I don't quite think the Pats would beat the Ravens in Baltimore and I think they lose to the Steelers. I'm not jumping off the bridge but I'm gonna say the Jets at the present are better than the Pats.
:beer: Pats are still reinventing their defense with alot of new faces and Brady is just starting to look like he has shaken alot of the rust off. He isn't 100% yet so assuming the Pats don't implode, he should be ready for the playoff run. The Steelers don't look better than Pats so far this year. Pats with Brady always match up with Pittsburgh and have beaten them before so your point is just speculation. Baltimore has a tougher rushing D than Pitt and Pats were grouped right in with those 2 teams as far as total defense. Jets Defense is better than Pats right now. I agree, but Pats offense is better than Jets O with Brady getting better each game. That is the difference. Getting Mayo back will shore up the middle of the Pats D and the Seau signing will help also by helping all the rookies the Pats currently have playing. Jets may or maynot be at the top of the AFC East in the end. It all depends on which team stays healthiest and how fast Sanchez comes along. I'll put my money on the Patriots and Belichick. Enjoy the season :beer:
With both teams at 3-1, and the Jets winning the head-to-head matchup, you're absolutely right IMO. I don't see how anyone could rank the two teams any differently at the moment. What we're excited about is the consistency of our defense. That wasn't really expected. The offense will round into form (it's started to already). I've been through enough of these seasons now to know that teams have to be playing their best football in December/January. With a 16 game schedule you can't give any away, but you also don't want to peak early. Gonna be a fun season. Enjoy it, and cheers... :beer:
