Hand It To Ateam
 

If you had told me after the first game the Jets would be 5-1, and winning games they have always lost in the past, I would've said you were crazy. They are a very good team, not great. But in a league filled with parity, they only need a 1 or 2 seed to be right there for the SuperBowl....Looking at the rest of their games, I am hard pressed to see how they win less than 11.

11? That limb shaky out there, brah?

Not really. They will definitely be over their number was more my point.

Long way to go, but thanks Rand. :D

Ateam is the one making them win. Good Job Ateam.

I appreciate that, Lt. Sandy Vagina.

Do I have to bring up the Rex Ryan thread where I was called stupid and making an ass out of myself for picking their schedule. I had them at 5-1 at this break, and I easily could have been perfect as they should have won the Baltimore game, and should have lost yesterday, at least from what I hear, although I didn't see the game but did see Ateam's FB posts about them getting hosed.

They are 13-3 or 12-4, easy, this year.

And Joey, don't go throwing my Bears predictions in my face because they are horrendous and still will be 6-10 or 7-9 at the end of this season. They should be 1-5, not 4-2

I'm not throwing anything in your face. I still think picking the schedule before the season is stupid and futile. I'm glad you were right about the Jets so far though.

You talk a lot of **** for someone who is in a first place tie.

They should be 6-0, and haven't even come close to playing their best football, which is fine, because you don't want to peak this early. The offense has been spotty, the defense not nearly as good as they can be, only the special teams have been excellent thus far.

Was definitely concerned when they replaced Feely with Nick Folk, but that has been a great decision to this point.

Technically they aren't tied. But don't let it stop you from repeating it another hundred times.

Has it become way more difficult to win on the road these days, or is it just seem like it because I root for the Lions?

You own the tie breaker, but you still have to come to NE. So whatever you say. The Pats are a top 4 team. The Pats, Jets, Pitt, Ravens. Sucks they are all in AFC.

How the hell is 5-1 with a head-to-head win vs. 4-1 a tie? You're just mad that everything you've said (and bet) against the Jets this year has turned to dust. The Jets aren't tied with anyone. They have the most wins in the NFL.

If you take stupid penalties (such as an unsportsmanlike conduct penalty after stopping a team inside the 10) and give a team another 3 shots at the endzone, I really think it doesn't matter where you play your games.

I'll take the Jets in that game, you can make the line right now. You have to name 5 players that have to be active, I will name 4 players that have to be active.

Anything up to $200

Skids...stick wih fantasy horsey racing.

No good at that, gotta focus on fantasy foozball and outsmarting the public



SIR

Well, with all due respect, that particular play seemed to warrant offsetting unsportsmanlike penalties, but as is typical with the Lions, only Cliff Avril was flagged. The late fumble and Brandon Pettigrew's stone hands also didn't help. Otherwise, Giants fans might be in a panic today about losing to the "lowly" Detroit Lions. It's a moral victory, I know, but this is the best Lions team I've seen since the late 90's in terms of overall talent. Now, if they could just figure out how to close out a game or two, they might be onto something. A 1-5 record does not really accurately describe how they've played, especially considering how brutal the schedule has been (@NYG, MIN, GB, CHI, home versus PHI, STL).

i'm just happy to see all the "jets can't win with mark sanchez" cripples have apparently crawled back into their cave.

what a shocker he's moderately better as a second year qb. no one could possibly have predicted that. not that this was a team that needed peyton manning to win games.

"hey mark! stop being alex smith or we'll make you hand the ball off a lot more so we can win games that way."

"okay, coach."

problem solved.

that deeply thought out jets qb analysis was genius next to someone on this site actually dissing sam bradford after his first pre-season game though.

God.

Gotta say, he's been excellent as a rookie. I thought he would get smoked playing for a crappy team, and was somewhat overrated in the draft, but he's definitely proved me wrong so far.

They are much improved and seem to be right in the thick of every ball game. They were about 2-3 plays away from winning that game this past Sunday. And of course let's not forget about the opener which as far as I'm concerned was stolen away from them.
They are slowly building a nucleus and in this league of parity (especially in the horrid NFC), they could be a playoff team a couple years down the road.

Did not know you were a Lions fan.

outside of sjax, he has almost no talent around him but seems to be making what little there is better.

i just wonder how committed that franchise is to winning games.

I'm not.

Dont be ashamed of your team. We both know, YOU ARE.

And we all know what you are Joseph, so I guess we are even.

What am I Math? Please tell me, and dont wait 3-5 days. Say it now. Kinda like the last 36 second response.

You are just that guy who thinks he knows everything.

MY BC picks are up. Well, some of them.

Good Luck with them.

Crazy thing is, they can win that horrid division THIS YEAR. But probably only more committed than one team in the entire league.

NOBODY CIRCLES THE WAGONS LIKE THE BUFFA...

eh, nevermind. :(

FTFY

Hell, as bad as the NFC North has been, they could go on a run and be a playoff team this year. I think they beat MIN, GB, and CHI at home later this season. Oh, and Suh has guaranteed they won't lose another home game, so that's six wins right there!

When do you get your real QB back?

Lions are a talented team...

0ctober 31 against the Redskins. I'll be there.
