Seth Wickersham ESPN The Magazine DIVISION FINISH: 4 Bad news, Brett: Laveranues Coles and Jerricho Cotchery are not Donald Driver and Greg Jennings. Worse news: The rest of the Jets aren't great, either. What a joke....
What do you mean! Coles is almost as old and decrepit as Driver and Cotchery has just as little experience as Jennings!!
A big joke considering Coles has about 300 MORE career yards than Driver in one LESS season, especially considering that Driver had a HOF passer, while Coles had to deal with the P-factor most of his career. Their touchdown numbers are also almost identical (37 and 38, respectively). Rec Yds Avg Lng TD Coles 561 7,245 12.9 64 37 Driver 503 6,977 13.9 85 38 Cotch also had 200 more yards receiving in his second season of starting than did Jennings. Again, when QB and line are taken into account, this is more than impressive. Both Coles and Cotch have had more yards and more catches with a whole lot less of a supporting cast to work with. This guy qualifies for TGG's media mook of the year award for spewing this nonsense.
I don't know if you realize this, but Driver gets double-teamed just about every play, has been for eyars. Surely that has to factor into any comparison.
There is no way we finish 4th. The Fact that this guy thinks Miami will finish ahead of us tells me that he doesn't know sh*t about football
Five greater than signs??? Hmm, how many orders of magnitude does that translate to? I don't know enough about Cotchery to compare to Jennings. Apparently you know a lot about Jennings though. D@mn Cotchery must be good, because Jennings is an emerging star in this league, as I'm sure you know.
I wondering what he has based his information on? Coles is as good as Driver and I feel like Cotchery is a much better receiver than Jennings. And why does he feel the rest of the team isn't that good either? I mean...c'mon ... give us something WickerSHAM
http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2008/football/nfl/specials/preview/2008/08/25/jets/index.html this seems more realistic to me
Coles is real good and he may well be damaged goods? Haven't seen him play much this year. Has had his bell rung a few times the last few years. Coles may not be a big factor this year? Hard to tell but it looks like we have some depth and he may be less important especially if Keller and Stuckey keep coming on. I think the passing game is going to be fine.
The asshole then goes on to predict the BILLS making the playoffs!!! Ok first he says Laveranues and Jerricho arent Donald Driver and Greg Jennings...your right moron they're better. Then you pick the Bills?!?! How does this asshole have a job?!?!
Let me get this right, the Jets won 4 games last year v.s. the Phins 1??? So how much better do you honestly belive the Jets are?? I hate to break it to you but your in for rude awakening once the season starts.
