HardyBoy Posted November 3, 2017 Share Posted November 3, 2017 Both teams played slow, it does not give any insight into either of these teams. Four days is way too soon. Seriously, go outside right now, and just dive 10 times on the ground. Then do it again in 4 days. Good luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

row_33 Posted November 3, 2017 Share Posted November 3, 2017 The jets played like they had all the time they needed to go full tilt. I didnt see any slowness at all by the Jets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fadingpain Posted November 3, 2017 Share Posted November 3, 2017 The jets played like they had all the time they needed to go full tilt. I didnt see any slowness at all by the Jets. Someone suggested the team may have been pumped up by the terrorist activity in NYC with the nut who drove down the bike path... I can see that being a motivator, not sure it really was however. I agree the Jets didn't seem nearly as tired as us despite having equal rest time. I also think this game will prove to be an anomaly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Augie Posted November 3, 2017 Share Posted November 3, 2017 It means a win or a loss. But it doesn’t mean a season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HardyBoy Posted November 3, 2017 Author Share Posted November 3, 2017 The jets played like they had all the time they needed to go full tilt. I didnt see any slowness at all by the Jets. There was this Are You Afraid of the Dark episode on Nick at Night back in the day where this girl, who was the worst on her team, wishes she could be the best player on her basketball team. Instead of getting good, everyone else ended up becoming worse, so technically she became the best on her team, but we Oregon Trail millennials learned a life lesson...that is what this game reminded me of.

MAJBobby Posted November 3, 2017 Share Posted November 3, 2017 Doesnt matter anyway. The NFL was never going to let the Jets lose this game. It was honoring the first responders game and a attack happening earlier in the week as well. NY was always going to win this game the NFL was going tk make sure of that.

MarlinTheMagician Posted November 3, 2017 Share Posted November 3, 2017 Counts as an L for sure, but does not indicate anything greater. Bad set-up for Bills tonight. On road, in short week, division opponent, playing for their season, that we had already beat once, Bills coming off a big win. Stuff happens. When team is more mature it will not let a letdown like this happen. We played stupid for the first time all year. How many penalties? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JerseyBills Posted November 3, 2017 Share Posted November 3, 2017 Road TNF games are brutal. TNF in general is brutal. 1/8 games I saw this team get clearly outplayed on O and D and that 1 game was a Thursday game on the road.. If this was Sunday or Monday I'd be extremely concerned. I'm not concerned. I don't expect to see the Bills look like tonight at any other point in season, tonight was an anomaly. They lacked their trademark- fundamentals. I attribute that to 3 days prep , on road.. Not making excuses, just my thoughts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr.Sack Posted November 3, 2017 Share Posted November 3, 2017 Curious what road teams records are on Thursday in comparison to all other games. Still no excuse for the lack of focus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doc Brown Posted November 3, 2017 Share Posted November 3, 2017 Curious what road teams records are on Thursday in comparison to all other games. Still no excuse for the lack of focus. 84-56 since 2006. 60% of games won by home team. That's slightly above a home team's winning percentage overall (around 58%) since 1990. We just played awful and now a lightning bolt has struck my neighbors front tree and I can't get back to sleep. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's cool! Much more interesting than the Bills game! Get out there and check it out. By the way, for anyone still up, the NFL Network is now replaying the game! You can watch it all again! Currently 7:43 left in 1st quarter, 7-0 Jets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heavy Kevi Posted November 3, 2017 Share Posted November 3, 2017 !@#$ insight, the W from TNF counts just as much as any other. So does the L Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Frankish Reich Posted November 3, 2017 Share Posted November 3, 2017 There was this Are You Afraid of the Dark episode on Nick at Night back in the day where this girl, who was the worst on her team, wishes she could be the best player on her basketball team.

That's a great comparison. As a tail end of the boom-er, I'll have to go find that episode and watch it for the first time. 84-56 since 2006. 60% of games won by home team. That's slightly above a home team's winning percentage overall (around 58%) since 1990. We just played awful and now a lightning bolt has struck my neighbors front tree and I can't get back to sleep. Doc, do you know how often the underdog wins on Thursdays vs. Sundays? My impression is that it's significantly higher, but in light of this stat, maybe I'm wrong ...
