OT: Football Thread

[Gordon Bombay]

Nobody just decides to do that whole ass lateral play. It's called.

Pats players say costly laterals were improvised

Jakobi Meyers and Rhamondre Stevenson said their laterals at the end of Sunday's game were not something the coaches told them to do.

Can you bench a whole team? I would.

The Jets are just indeed a cursed franchise, no other way to put it. It doesn't matter who the coach is, the coaching staff, the QB, the players, etc. They'll find ways to blow games and collapse seasons like no other team can.

Sounds like their first cousins out in Citifield.

That looked a lot like some of Zach Wilson's passes yesterday.

I think that what happened was the running back saw a guy and wanted to a hero and that led to the guy making the final lateral losing his head.

It'll be interesting to see if he benches Stevenson or Meyers. Tough to bench your 2 best offensive players in a playoff chase, although slim chances now

Anyone see Mike Francesca's article on Zach Wilson in the Post today?

So, I’m facing QB Armageddon in fantasy this week. I managed to steer all three of my teams to first round byes, and proceeded to lose my QB in all three leagues (Hurts, Kyler, and Lamar).

I am currently planning to play Daniel Jones in 2/3 leagues. I feel like this game against Minnesota is going to be a shootout. This kid just has no one to throw the ball to though.

Brutal.

WR is really weak especially with questionable pass protection. I have a feeling they will start using the TE more for pass catching. They also may split Breida or Barkley wide more. Good luck! I will definitely be rooting for DJ!

Its just a pile on at this point but add Kayvon Thibodeaux to the list of Giants with more TDs than Kenny Golladay.

Also has as many as Toney so far.

If the Jets could re-do the 2021 draft today, would they take Justin Fields at #2?

Fields may not be perfect as a passer right now at least, but they would for sure either take Fields or trade back. Or draft someone like Chase at #2.

Well Fields is ahead right now but mostly because of his legs. Steve Young and Alex Smith both kind of went off on the Jets saying they have not given Zach a fair shake. They did make a legit case. I think 1 or both may be family friends. Watching Fields vs the Giants I was not overwhelmed but that is just 1 game.

 

[Rangers in 7]

If the Jets could re-do the 2021 draft today, would they take Justin Fields at #2?

no, because at the end of the day he hasnt shown the ability to win in the air......the guy is a great rushing qb but right now i wouldnt take fields

chase on the other hand id do

Eagles best with 8 in Pro Bowl; Dallas, KC get 7

The 13-1 Eagles lead the NFL with eight players making the league's newly rebranded Pro Bowl Games, while the Cowboys and Chiefs each have seven.

Something is not right here.

we already have a good running back

 

[17futurecap]

Would be nice to not have the season be effectively over tonight.

 

[Ben Grimm]

How the Jets brightened their future in 41 minutes by drafting Sauce Gardner, Garrett Wilson

A franchise with a history of draft blunders got it right in 2022 with Gardner and Wilson, who might finally fill the team's star power void.

[Deleted member 23124]

Jets just did something I've never seen in the nhl.....Jets called for false start....ref states the penalty was called on "everyone but the center". What kind of nonsense is that???

 

[KirkAlbuquerque]

Wilson is so awful my god. I mean the Oline is trash but Wilson can’t read a defense or make an accurate throw

 

[17futurecap]

The difference in QB play is astonishing, even with the Lawrence fumble.

 

[Crease]

Wilson is simply ineffective—and the team clearly does not like playing for him. Too bad White got hurt when he did.

Seems to me Wilson is afraid to throw the ball -- everything is tenative......if he does have something on the ball it's usually to a receiver who's got 3 opponents around him.
