I've been invisible as of late as I've taken time away from the team 😅

But I came back to simply say I wish everyone here has a safe holiday week! Whether you celebrate with family, friends, loved ones, alone, or not at all, I hope you all find time to be happy!

All love!

13 targets to Davante 7 catches. 7 targets to Garrett 6 catches. I feel for Garrett.

My only hope for the rest of the season is the teams with less wins than the Jets win their games while the Jets lose out.

Sad to see Fashunu's injury. He was a bright spot. Hope not too serious.

Happy holidays to everybody.

Good Morning and Merry Christmas, watching the Jets will kill your holiday spirit, they are just not good for you. Not sure whether it’s the constant penalties or the inability to stop the run that creates the greater RAGE, it’s just exhausting. Time to empty the bench , start Adrian Martinez at QB.

David, you hit the nail on the right on the head this morning.

While I have many thoughts about the current state of the only team that I root for, today and tomorrow will definitely not be the time to vent.

Priorities must be met, getting ready for Xmas and worrying about 14 people coming over for Xmas Eve dinner are higher on my list than commenting about this franchise.

Woody Johnson is right and he proves it every day “ thinking is overrated”

Every thought this clown has ever come up with in regard to this team, just buries this team into a large black hole day by day.

To all who celebrate Xmas, Merry Xmas, to anyone who doesn’t Happy Holidays.

David, thank you very much, I once called you the Dr Phil of Jet sport writers. You have definitely been the voice of reason carrying your readers through the most difficult season in the franchise history.

Since you are across the pond, HAPPY XMAS TO YOU AND YOUR FAMILY.

To David and the gang here, I want to wish you all the Happiest of the holidays! Merry Christmas to all who celebrate. David, on a side note, I said this two years ago when we fired MLF, He was not the problem. This team had players that didn’t fit his system. The QB situation needs no explanation. The LT was a better fit in the power blocking scheme he was in as a rookie. He was not a good fit in the zone blocking scheme. Becton has been really good in Philly’s power scheme. He’s much better going forward than moving laterally. LeFluer had a new job days after he was fired. LA’s receivers were getting open all day. Neither one of their starters are speed guys. Scheme matters. Hey, how about my boy Sam? 3 more TD’s! If I’m the Vike’s there is no way I let him out the door this offseason. Are they gonna hand the keys to an untested rookie with a roster like this? If they do and they struggle next year theres gonna be some serious questions to answer.

I think they are going to franchise Darnold. Don't think they will give him long term contract with McCarthy around. Or maybe they give him a Cousins contract which they can get out of not too painfully.

Here’s a thought, in a weak QB class what could they get for McCarthy ?

Interesting. However, I don't think they wud do it. I think the next Jet QB might be Kirk Cousins as a bridge.

Phil, not a fan of that. He’s less mobile than Rodgers and his salary might be a problem considering they are paying not only Rodgers but Tyrod Taylor as well. Rodgers and Taylor are at least $35m against the cap. if we cut Rodgers before June 1st it’s even worse.

Ron, I am not actually a fan of that either. However, if Atlanta releases him he is still guaranteed 40 million and he would be in a similar situation like Russell Wilson was so they could basically get him for nothing. The situation with Rodgers is tricky. I frankly don't know what they should do. I do prefer that he doesn't return. Maybe they draft somebody like Jalen Monroe from Alabama or maybe miracle of miracles Jordan Travis returns healthy and becomes something. With either one of these they still need a bridge QB. So maybe it's Tyrone with those two fighting it out to be the future. The problem with Tyrone though is he is quite fragile. Let's see what the new management thinks. Hopefully they get it right on selecting somebody good for the GM role and he in turn picks a viable coach. Happy holidays.

Milroe is a long term project. He’s got the size,the arm and he’s an athlete. What he’s not at this point is a NFL QB. He’s basically a bigger Zach! Anthony Richardson is the best comp I can think of at this point.
