[Ed Oliver vs Quinnen Williams]

Quinnen is on the trade block. Jets asking for a 2nd round pick.

 

Has Oliver been good for Buffalo?

[Week 7: Bills at Jets]

I think the Bills are walking into a buzzsaw on Sunday. Gregg Williams and Adam Gase will give us a tactical advantage. 

[Week 7: Bills at Jets]

I actually think the Jets are going to play well on Sunday. 
 

Reasons being:

 

1) Getting healthier-Mims and Darnold are practicing 

2) They typically play much better at home than on the road 

3) They haven’t hit a big play all year. I think maybe if they can connect on a long pass or break a long run that could get the offense going. 
 

The Jets are not a good team, but I don’t think they are 0-16 bad. I definitely see them winning 2-4 games. 

[Dolphins name Tua Tagovailoa starting QB going forward]

It’s pretty much a redux of the Kurt Warner situation on the Giants when he handed the job to Eli. 
 

Fitz will get another job 

[Proud to be a Democrat]

Joe Biden has really rose to the occasion in this election. He is going to save hundreds of thousands of American lives and improve the lives of black and brown people.
 

I also want to thank Nancy Pelosi for her leadership these four years. With her policies working hand in hand with AOC in the progressive wing of the party we are going to change the world!

 

Climate Change! Equality! Morality! Health Care! 
 

Every republican should look themselves in the mirror and change parties. I am a democrat. I am on the right side of history!

TBF that wasn’t Wallace’s question. He was speaking in the context of protester violence/riots. 
 

That said any time the word white supremacy comes up like that it’s probably a good idea to disavow immediately.

The whole interaction was cringe worthy. All both candidates had to say was they respect their constitutional Right to protest but disavow any damage to property and violence towards humans. 

[Inside track on Lawrence after 2 weeks?]

14 hours ago, Rochesterfan said:

 

Unless they are idiots - the Jets have to take the QB - just because of the contract.  After this season it is 5th year contract decision and then long term contract time for Darnold and they have wasted his cheap years.  
 

Yes they could get a boat load of picks for Lawerence, but if you figure those spread out over several years - you are to the point of paying your QB 40 million and it will impact who you can retain.

 

Lawerence resets that window and let’s you spend on FA to build around him and use your draft picks on future talent to grow with him.

 

I just don’t see the Jets as getting a top 3 pick.  They are terrible right now, but I think around game 6-7 when the pressure is off - they will start to stack a few wins and end up with 4-6 wins by the end.  Darnold will get hot and some teams will overlook them and bam. 
 

I expect Carolina, Jacksonville, Cincinnati, NYG, Detroit, and/or Minnesota to all be in the 2-5 win range with shots at picking before NYJs.

Why would the Jets have to trade Sam in the event and they drafted Lawrence? Can’t they keep both and May the best man win?

[The Jets are going to go on a run]

FTR I Hope yall sense was the sarcasm. 

[[Moderator Edit -last 2 pages] Moss and Knox vs. Rams]

Frank Gore is ready for his 25 carries on Sunday 

[The Jets are going to go on a run]

Reminds me a lot of 1998. I can see the Jets shocking the world after a slow start and winning the AFC East. 
 

The Jets have the talent and coaching acumen to do this. Joe Flacco will be back next week and go on a Vinny T like run.

 

Id take an offense of Gase, Flacco, and Frank Gore over anything else in this division. 
 

Fear the Jets 

[Thoughts on Conference Re-Alignment?]

Not horrible. Lot of little things that would need to be changed. Couple obvious ones:

 

Jacksonville is on the Atlantic Coast, while Tampa is on the Gulf coast.

 

As someone else said, no such division as “Rust belt” If it doesn’t include Pittsburgh.

 

The NFC north is the only division that lined up to begin with- just call them the Great Lakes division and you’re good to go. 

I think Pittsburgh made more sense in then Mid Atlantic so they could keep their rivalry with Baltimore. The other option would be to swap Cincy with Pittsburgh, but the natural rivalry between Cincy and Cleveland was important. 

[Thoughts on Conference Re-Alignment?]

This new MLB schedule would be great. Could you email imagine the spike in game day attendance if matchups were adjusted?

 

Here is my idea-32 teams and 8 divisons 

 

Northeast

NYJ

NYG

New England

Philadelphia 

 

Rust Belt 

Buffalo

Detroit

Cleveland

Cincinnati 

 

Mid Atlantic

Baltimore

Washington

Tennessee

Pittsburgh

 

South Atlantic 

Miami

Carolina 

Tampa 

Atlanta 

 

Gulf Coast

Dallas 

Houston

New Orleans 

Jacksonville

 

Midwest

Chicago

Green Bay

Indianapolis 

Minnesota 

 

Southwest 

Los Angeles Rams

Los Angeles Chargers

Arizona Cardinals 

Las Vegas Raiders

 

Northwest

San Francisco

Seattle

Denver 

Kansas City

[Josh Allen’s offense vs Sam Darnold’s offense]

If you were Joe Douglas and you had a 6 year contract what would you do?

 

He’s playing the slow game knowing that the Jets roster has too many holes to fix in one offseason. 

[Kamala Harris is the next VP]

Wow! Great choice by Joe Biden! Our country is in good hands.

Kakko put up 10G and 23 points... What can you really expect from another 18 year old?  40ish points?  Maybe?

I’m hoping LaFreniere is more like Sid the Kid, Matthews, McDavid. Instant star.

I'm an Islander fan and you can enjoy the #1 pick. I will enjoy Isles-Caps playoffs. One more day until they drop the puck.

LaFreniere is going to be wearing a Rangers sweater though.

The Rags weren’t making a championship run. 

 

Thank your lucky stars you have the pick.

 

what a stupid way they obtained it. That’s another story. 

I look at the NY Giants in both 2007 and 2011. 9-7 type teams that got hot at the right time to make a super bowl run. 
 

There are countless examples of this from all sports. 
 

That said I agree the Rangers situation was a little different. It would almost be the same as if the Jets were awarded the #1 pick after losing to the Bills in Week 17 2015.
 

Still, to me fans have a tendency to overhype draft picks. I’m sure LaFreniere is going to become an excellent forward, but you don’t want to put too high of expectations on a 18 year old kid.  

[Would you prefer to make the playoffs or get the #1 pick?]

 

As a die-hard Rangers fan I feel like Im in the minority, but I’d prefer to make the playoffs. 
 

Obviously the #1 pick is a great consolation prize and I was stoked to get it, but at the end of the day I want that shot at a championship. 
 

In the NBA I’d definitely take the #1 pick, but the other three sports (Baseball, Hockey, and Football) are definitely random enough to give any playoff team a fighting chance at a title. 
 

What are your thoughts? Would you rather win a game or series and make the playoffs or lose that game or series and end up with the #1 pick?

 

I ask because I respect Buffalo sports fans.

[Biden Declares That African Americans Are Pretty Much All Alike]

I said it once and I’ll say it again. James Clyborn had his choice to endorse a number of very qualified men and women. He chose Joe Biden. Barack Obama could have nominated a number of qualified men and women as VP he also chose Joe Biden?

 

Why because Joe Biden is a friend, community member, and strong advocate for equality.

USA has 161,000 reported covid deaths, New York has 32,801 of them, that's 20.3% and estimated 10000 of them were in nursing homes, so 6% of reported covid deaths were in New York nursing homes, because cuomo mandated they take sick residents.

 

So? It was the right decision. What did you want to do with folks in nursing homes? 
 

That’s why I support a party with top moral standards.

This is hogwash. Joe Biden has spent his political life fighting for Black and Brown people.

Yes, without thinking twice...bring on the multiple 1st rounders plus some...

 

Imo, players NEVER live up to their extension contracts unless they’re super bowl QBs!

That’s the other element to it. Two first round picks, a third, a player, and a ton of extra cap space. 
 

Non-QBs are often overvalued.
