The anti NY bias strikes again.

Waaaaah.

Do you really care this much about awards Joey? Revis may have a monetary gain by being named, but other than that, I doubt he cares. Sportswriters and Broadcasters voted. They're all clowns.

All they have to do is poll the players and coaches.....

Sports awards, including our beloved Eclipse Awards are a joke.

Let it go Joey. Although it is BS, you/they have bigger fish to fry. If anything maybe Rex will try to use this to fire them up even more (not that you should have to be motivated at this point). But how the Jets get no respect, while pointing to the line and the snub that Revis got.
Unfortunately for Revis, it's tough to accumulate stats when they don't throw to your side of the field.

Nah, ultimately it's meaningless of course, but what gets me is that they're rewarding Woodson for being an all-or-nothing highlight hungry douchebag while Revis quietly eliminates Andre Johnson, Moss twice, Owens twice, Ochocinco twice, Steve Smith, Reggie Wayne, Marques Colston, etc etc every week.

The Jets are still playing while Woodson's jerking off into his award so that's what matters to me, but it'd be nice if the best season by a corner since Deion was recognized more by these idiots. FFS, Woodson got TWICE as many votes.

Exactly. Byrd should win Defensive ROY but who cares because the Bills went 5-11 for like the 11th straight year. Awards are stupid.

Revis may have had the best year Evah at his position. Any team playing the Jets basically had to count their best receiver out of their gameplan. And he continued into the playoffs. Not a Jets fan by any stretch but I do not remember any player dominating his position like Revis did this year.

Personally, I could care less about these awards, even if a Bear were to win them, but when you hold the WR's that Revis has held to under 38 yards, or whatever the stat is, well, that is even MVP worthy, let alone these hilarious awards. I am sure Ateam has the WR's that he completely stopped, the list is amazing

Love this quote:
"Remember Woodson also beat Peyton Manning for the Heisman, so he has a long and storied history of robbing deserving players out of postseason honors."

Rex Ryan Summary:
"For those of you that voted for Revis, I commend you for knowing Football."
"I want to let you know one number, and that is 8. No its not the number of TDs that GB gave up on Sunday. Its the number of TDs our defense gave up in the air all season."

Actually it might be 30 yds. I was reading the numbers were somewhere a total of 482 yds for the season against Revis. Now thats amazing.
