Ya I guess not everyone can be a day 1 starter, but that kind of contract would normally be reserved for after sustained success. He had 5 career sacks over 2 seasons (plus a season on IR). Jumping to a $55m extension after a good 4 game start to a season reeks of desperation.

https://www.nfl.com/news/jets-dl-john-franklin-meyers-agree-to-4-year-55m-extension 4 year extension with $30.2m guaranteed. Jets continue their storied tradition of falling in love hard and fast with D-linemen giving John Franklin-Meyers a big payday for notching 3 sacks in 4 games. Hopefully he turns out to be a flash in the pan and hampers their salary cap for the next few years. Probably gets traded next offseason after the honeymoon wears off and the gravity of playing for New Jersey sinks in.

You don't know PI, he tripped.

Yeah I misspoke. Guess they ruled his trailing foot was still on the line, like the rules for illegal forward pass. Rule changes are fun...

Kicker got past the LoS, so it's legal to kick again.

Rams getting away with illegal formation. Tackles lining up way off the line.

Oh do explain, this should be fun.

So what you're saying is only playoff games count? You say "especially the playoffs" when you clearly mean "only the playoffs". If we win out through the Super Bowl with the first seed so we don't even get to play on the road, will you still be upset?

Hey I'm a proponent for Star, but to be fair his first sack was credited to him for being closest to the QB when he ran out of bounds for a loss, and the second was Houston...

You're just determined to ignore the concepts of context and sample size. The whopping THREE whole losses without him were... 1. Covid-rescheduled game against the very good Titans who beat us by 26 points. This was before our defense woke up and Moss wouldn't have won that game for us. 2. Injury riddled game against THE KANSAS CITY CHIEFS in the AFC Championship game where game planning hurt us more than the lack of Moss did. 3. ONE inactive game against Pitt in week 1, where pass blocking was sketchy and Allen was rusty. You talk as if we're sitting him all the time and losing because of it. 2 of the 3 losses without him were because he was injured and came against Championship contender teams.

I thought this was going to be about Hurts and Brissett coming to beg to be the next Trubisky for us next year.

Absolutely unnecessary to come in like a missile at someone already on the ground. Irresponsibly dangerous.

"Data: PFF" That explains a lot.

It's not a matter of IF we make the playoffs (the division is ours), it's what seed will we be.

This feels like the "We have a good record when Moss plays. Coincidence? I think not!" thread, only with an even smaller sample size.

Yeah a lot of people are SUPER judgey despite their belief system explicitly telling them "judge not, lest ye be judged". And that's all I'll say on that matter. I can just hope they've been working on some new plays in practice and wanted to save Beas (2 catches) and Davis (zero catches I think) for KC? Probably not the case, but that's my headcanon.

Let's just not end up like the Chargers, who had the #1 offense AND defense.....and managed to not make the playoffs.

Ooh Pats player just threw a back elbow at an O lineman.

So close. Almost did gift them a FG on Josh's first pass, but they went for it on 4th down like FOOLS.

Been telling my friends since the day after Pittsburgh that they were our Hail Murray for the year

I bet you could take the defending champs from any given year, put them against the 1st overall draft pick team, and they would seldomly hold them under 300 yards four games in a row. That's what gets me about the haters who say "doesn't count, it was only (bad team)". We keep being told elite teams need to reliably dominate bad teams, but our 118-21 run still "doesn't count". When we win by only one or two scores the first thing said about it is how we failed to dominate.

Before the game last week I expoused Star's virtues of how he is still a valuable part of the D-line even being kept off the stat sheet. He responds with sacks in back to back games. Ok fine Star, you do you what do I know. We were also like 20 more yards or something on the last minute INT from not only breaking our record for biggest win, but also covering the 47 point over single-handedly.

Devin looked as much like Zack today (or even more so) than Zack looks like Zack. I also 100% approve of the hybrid names proposed in this thread. I wonder how many iterations you guys can come up with.

You really should stop grinding your ass in the direction of random old men. Gonna get a lot of good innocent guys in trouble.

You're saying I have a chance with her? I'm tellin ya, I'm amazed 14 year old me managed to convince his girlfriend he didn't have a big thing for J-Lo.
