Back On Solid Ground In Time For The Dolphins http://www.newyorkjets.com/news/art...Dolphins/bc2669a9-4a00-4249-9040-a26092d052aa I get an email from the Jets last night touting the above headline. So I open it thinking we've brought in somebody really noteworthy to shore up the Safety position or something. Instead, it's this cockamamie article from the Jets PR squad trying to make light of the burial of the ball (and nothing else). WTF man, come on. Okay, so we buried the fucking football, but don't set me up this way. "Back on solid ground" my ass. Slap the hell out of the next 4 opponents and then we can talk about maybe getting back on solid ground and living up to expectations. Sheesh...
That's the 1st thing I thought too...... The whole thing was a freakin abortion. Combination of false bravado and panic. They should've taken the opening kickoff, and "ground'n'pounded" the ball right from the get go in an attempt to keep Brady on the sidelines. To think they would match offensive firepower was stupid. The wasted challenge, then the long kick by an unreliable kicker set the table for a long evening. Possibly Rex's worst performance with the J-E-T-S :shit:
Those plus the Eric Smith Pass Interference call at the 1YL. It all set the tone for a Jet fan's Night of the Living Dead scenario.
Definitely, but that falls on the player, not the coach. Same goes for Weatherford's heinous punt attempt.
We all need to relax. I have the perfect solution for our playoff problems. I'm reading in the other thread the 3 possible scenarios for us to make the playoffs, but there is also a 4th scenario that nobody mentions anymore: 4) The NYJ beat all remaining opponents by scaring the living hell out of them ahead of time into thinking that we'll "kick their asses" and that we're "going to the SuperBowl." It's just that easy. It worked for the first 11 games and we need to get back to "basics," that being the outlandish, distracting, nonsensical, over-the-top trash talk before each of the remaining games.
There you go again, showing your encyclopedic knowledge for New England and nostalgic side for the Patriots. You blood truly is green.
And of course, no one ever did it before as a coaching method in front of Belichick. Cliche coaching methods like this are stolen all the time.
