As i said above, a lot of it was due to Chad having a great comeback season. And playing a last place schedule, that enabled them to finish strong with 5 wins inthe last six against powerhouses like Houston, GB, Minn (pre-AP), Miami in the rain, Oakland and GB. They were hardly worldbeaters. 11 Sun November 19 box L 5-5 Chicago Bears 12 Sun November 26 box W 6-5 Houston Texans 13 Sun December 3 box W 7-5 @ Green Bay Packers 14 Sun December 10 box L 7-6 Buffalo Bills 15 Sun December 17 box W 8-6 @ Minnesota Vikings 16 Mon December 25 box W 9-6 @ Miami Dolphins 17 Sun December 31 box W 10-6 Oakland Raiders
what Favre brought us Even though Favre sucks d--- now, the one thing he did bring is his threat. This caused Thomas Jones to take off.
i still think the jets can pull it off, for some reason, i dont see BOTH the Pats and Ravens winning on sunday
I agree with you, the Chad "can't" throw makes no sense. But I think we just see the situation differently, thats all. I think Chad isn't "that" guy thats going to lead a team to a Super Bowl. He has limited ability but a lot of heart. Plus he's smart and can react very quickly. But in January, just like he did with the Jets, I don't see him "winning" games. The Dolphins have won one game of significance thus far and that was against the Pats with Ronnie Brown had like 5 TD's or something. I think they've benefited from a very easy schedule and pulled out a lot of close games against crappy teams. If they play the Ravens again, IMO, they get beat down again. Thats why to me anyway, the Favre experiment was worth it. If it doesn't work out, whatever, the Dolphins are not winning the Super Bowl with Pennington either, so who gives a hoot. And I'm NOT saying that the Phins have more to work with on offense. I thought you meant the team as a whole. I don't think the Dolphins are that much worse than the Jets considering how crap our pass defense is. But I am also saying that coaching makes a difference too. There is a reason why the Pats are still almost playoff bound even though they lost their starting MVP QB and their RB for the whole year. I think the Dolphins coaching staff has done a great job and the Jets not so much, but thats just my opinion.
I hear you, but you do realize we had the exact same schedule except for 2 games, so the real shame is we could not pull out a few more wins against those crappy teams, especially since we have way more on the field offensively and the great Brett Favre, who right now does not look like the guy to lead us to a super bowl either. I just hope with help we can get into the playoffs despite Favre and the rest of the underachieving Jets and coaches.
:rofl2: The same cake schedule your Hall of Famer has played so poorly in. Can't throw?:lol: Try watching some Fin games every now and then, might be worth it considering we'll be at the top of the division for years to come. http://www.nfl.com/videos?videoId=09000d5d80c54bfe
WTF IS WITH YOU PEOPLE AND PLAYING THE BLAME GAME! Chad went to Miami and they are better. Favre came here, and oh, guess what, we're better. They are both good quarterbacks. Personally I believe that the QB switch just filled up the front part of the Action. I think that the Trade DID affect both teams, but I also believe that both teams had major changes that affected the teams majorly. You're not convincing the other side that one QB is better then the one they are arguing for, that practically never happens. Favre, was bad in 2004, and nobody ever thought he'd get better till 2007-08 season came and he was great. And we wouldn't be having this conversation 5 weeks ago, and 5 weeks doesn't change a QB form a winning standard of playing to a losing standard. But then Chad had a 4 win season last year,and look at him know, whether or not you think he would still be better on the jets doesn't matter because he's on the Dolphins and he's winning. However on that same note, Favre is with the Jets now, and they can make the playoffs, so right now, Favre is our QB, NOT Pennington. We have a game we have to win, so don't ask yourself " should i go for Favre or Pennington" ask yourself " Am I a Dolphins or Jets fan." Because If you picked the former, you can go ahead and leave the Gang green forums and head to the Phins forums. NOW WHO HERE IS A JETS FAN?
Right direction? I wouldn't call no QB of the future and the shitty Salary Cap situation you guys are sure to have "going in the right direction".
I respectfully disagree. What I think you meant to say was "One is a good quarterback and the other used to be a good quarterback"? I do agree with the rest of your post though. Chad is in Miami and the Phins are winning and Brett is with New York and the Jets are choking. Everyone should stop worrying about the "What if we still had Penny".
Great point Chad was brought to Miami after Favre was brought to New York, that argument is a bad one.
There you go! Blame Chad's great season on everything but the fact he makes great throws, great job! While I do agree about the whole playcalling part. It's funny because during Chad's whole career as a Jet, your coaching squad tried so hard at making Chad a gunslinger type. And then, after you get a gun slinger in Favre, you guys convert to the short passes that you should've been using with Penny :lol: Funny stuff. So I do agree, your coaching staff is just plain bad. But like I said, it's pretty ignorant to try and take this season away from Chad and give it to the Playcalling, Gameplan, Coaching, Playbook, and whatever else. Watch Chad play and you will see, he is just very damn accurate and smart with his throws.
You conveniently begin this list the week after we beat the Pats in Foxboro with Chad. That was the last game the Pats would lose in Foxboro until this year, when Miami went up there and destroyed them--with Chad. Yet people constantly say we'd never have won up there this year with Chad instead of Favre, I'm not sure what that logic is based on.
Okay add on the NE game in the mud, BFD. The point is still what it is- they did not have a difficult schedule down the stretch in 06, and they eeked into the POs because they played weak teams the entire month of december, and chad had a good season. This CS has done squat with what they had. It isn't hard to see they arent very good. Sutton is horrible, Schottie- i dont know what to make of him. sometimes he just calls games like he has a buttplug up his ass. and Mangina is a POS with no ability to adapt to the game, and he has no feel of the game because he is a gum-chewing twat.
That was a pretty dumb response to a post saying that coaching has a lot to do with both players coming to the Jets and not playing as well as they have been with other teams. Actually, that seems like you're only argument in this case. Also, I don't root for the Phins so I'm not much interested in their games or highlights.
