OT: Football Thread

[IDvsEGO]

For a bit, but I don't think the number of reps or the gravity behind them were appropriate.

Don't get me wrong, it's not a criticism of the Jets. I'm not going to be sour grapes over a preseason results. All I'm saying is, they looked very prepared for that game and came out with a high level of intensity. It was the right thing to do.

I never felt we had a true dress rehearsal like that. I know you don't want guys to get hurt but that display last night was clear lack of preparation.

And if any of the jets starters got hurt in that, they’d have been ripped to shreds.
The pre-season is always a gamble.

Guys are just going to start getting hurt when the season starts anyway. It's football.

Yeah if you lose a player to an achilles tear in week 1 vs preseason do you really feel any better about it?

It looked like it was pouring on TV. Hope the tailgate equipment at least stayed dry.

It didn't start raining until we were walking in.

 

[Glen Sathers Cigar]

That was just an absolutely embarrassing and abhorrent performance by the entire roster.

 

[East Coast Bias]

Not a giants fan and I was gonna say just burn the tapes and move on, they’ll be fine. But man their schedule is rough. Not a lot of room for error.

Same with the Jets really. Can’t afford to play yourself into form.

 

[Hunter Gathers]

I'm not even going to spend time on that loss. The team looked shellshocked after the early 2 Dallas scores and errors. Never recovered and the loss just snowballed from there.

I'll put weight on this loss if they have an awful showing next week.

 

[KirkAlbuquerque]

Betting my life savings against the Jets tonight.

Lots of hype
New QB
First Monday night game of the year
9/11 anniversary at home

There’s absolutely zero chance they don’t embarrass themselves.

There's a good chance this team is 1-6 by Halloween. If they lose to Washington in Week 7 and they're not somehow .500 or better, I think I punt the season, get what I can at the deadline to clear some salary, and focus on next year.

This year's schedule is absolutely brutal.

I have a hockey game tonight. I kept going back and forth about “calling in sick” but in the end, I decided that the Jets are either going to win or ruin my night, so best just to play hockey and catch the highlights after.

Tell me the Jets went back to this classic kit and this is not a one game throwback

 

[17futurecap]

[will1066]

[Taluss]

Man. Just unbelievable

 

[KirkAlbuquerque]

Literally the most predictable thing to ever happen

Dammit it is a throwback

 

[Gardner McKay]

You have to wonder. Are the Jets cursed? Like, I can't think of anything else.

 

[17futurecap]

Thank God he put that condition on the first round pick.

What's worse...being a Jets fan or a Ranger fan? Can never have nice things.

Looked like his left leg got caught in the turf or something as he was being sacked

What’s there to wonder about? It’s been clear for decades .
