Yep, if you're paying attention the more you see the more something becomes apparent. I felt the same way. Psyched for a win or even betting on them in that situation only to be disappointed, many times. Even them being a heavy favorite at any time. Always wondered if the NY press contributed to it by the players and team falling for the shortsighted hype Rodgers has said it a couple of times now, that you have to know how to handle prosperity. Don't be distracted by the media. He knows that. Hopefully the team and coaching staff are aware of it. So many pitfalls and why experienced leadership is so important
Over the last 18 years they have a .412 winning pct so those after the bye games win pct are pretty close. I think it's more just a they have been bad overall those last 18 years, rather than then being bad just after the bye.
Do you not see the dichotomy in citing "Douglas/Saleh" in one sentence and " No questions and excuses" in the next?
Do you think that anyone here really cares about getting offended by Payton's words when Hackett has been a source of pain here all by himself? I don't buy the "he's an idiot, but he's our idiot" defense.
"after byes" is extraneous information. So since you did, I went and looked it up as well. In the last 18 years overall the Jets are 120 - 171 for a winning percentage of .412. I'm okay with disregarding both byes and mini byes. On the "level of suck" meter it appears to be well within the margin of error.
If I had read this, I could have saved myself a lot of work. Just watching another lousy SEC game anyway.
John-Franklin Myers revenge game? I expect at least 1 roughing the passer penalty today from this guy.
I hear you. I see it a different way. Every game in the NFL is tough because every team has talent and there is a lot of parity. Every team has to be prepared and pumped up for every game. Talent isn't enough in this league to win consistently.
