NFL (since 2016)

Post crystal falace »

"Free agency started last night and was pretty crazy some huge money being spent. Osweiler getting £18m a year for the Texans, leaving the Broncos without a QB, Giants have spent a fortune on good but not great players, Oliver Vernon has more guaranteed money than JJ Watt. lots more deals but cant be bothered to list them all."

"Jets will get the number one pick in the draft next year, Giants will get a top 5 pick."

"Probably say that the defending against the run was more ridiculous and I can't work out whether or not Darnold is absolutely fucking useless, considering he doesn't have much of a receivers set to use. Definitely a decent call below that they will go winless, they're as bad as miami were at one point in the last couple of years. Thought the Bronco lad played well though."

That Sam Darnold run for a TD was ridiculous. As were the couple of sacks he took where he inexplicably dropped back 10 yards before tripping himself up for a massive loss. He's got an arm though.

Would make the offence very scary with edelman being able to have the number 2 corner and defences having to respect the passing game allowing them to run with theor huge stable of backs and cam on the read option

That would be interesting. It is a fair old while since the Patriots had a genuine deep threat.

"Talking of Fitzpatrick, I like the way he is still happy to put his head down, play as an emergency fullback and batter his way over the gain line. Not many QBs of his age do that."

Crystal. You rejected my offer. It was the offer of a lifetime. You must have been mad not to take it.

Sorry Crystal A bad game against the Chiefs won't make me give up on Jackson just yet. Even if you play on my Who Dat loyalty.

Ryan Fitzpatrick is still available. He could have fun with the Seahawks secondary.

"I take more interest than ever now, and gase should have been sacked at the end of last season. the bloke is fucking clueless and doesn't know how to use players. your only potent weapon at the weekend, herndon, got just three catches. nothing worse than an owner using a coach as a vanity project. just admit you got it wrong and make the change"

"Somebody who was cheap, would be grateful for the job, wouldn't say boo to a goose and who has extraodinary stare-y eyes! In all honest, IH, I really don't know what they (think they) saw in Gase. It was a ridiculously poor appointment. He bombed in that final season in Miami and he has carried on bombing since he arrived. The flurry of wins we had at the end of last season (when the season was effectively already over) flattered his record and probably kept him in the job. But he is utterly useless on every level. He's a ""yes man"", grateful for the and not prepared to face-up to the owners over the lack of investment and the constant player/contract churn etc. When Bowles finally went, Mike McCarthy actively sought the HC job in New York. He was exactly what we neeed - a gnarly old fucker of a HC who knows his way around the NFL and would bring that bruising NFC North approach to the AFC East. But McCarthy knows his own mind (he will no doubt fall out with Jones in Dallas at some point) and that scared the living bejesus out of our owners and GM. The Jets have generally thrived (rare periods) when they've had experienced head coaches - it just seems to be how best to handle the media pressure and market in New York. Bill Parcells, Weeb Ewbank (who won our only superbowl back in the 60s) - best coaches we've had and they had already won titles elsewhere. Whenever we've picked younger/inexperienced head coaches, like Gase, they have tended to be useless (like Gase), pciked too soon (like Pete Carroll way back in the 1990s) or the kind of coaches who do OK but fall a little short (Rex Ryan, Herm Edwards etc). I don't know how McCarthy will do at the Cowgirls, but I'd have bitten your arm off for him last year when he was asking to be appointed at the Jets. How the hell did Gase interview better than McCarthy?"
