"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."

Giants blow it at the end. And carry on for a top pick.
GO G MEN.!
To be fair, they didn't blow it as much as it was an incredible play by a player that has been one of the few bright spots in the Saints' season.

No need to apologise, fella. The Jets’ ability to lose from seemingly unassailable positions is astonishing.
And on it goes.

We go 26-23 up with just 50 seconds left, and still they get the field goal they need!
Aaarrrggghhh!

23 -23 against the Fish, with 4mins left in the game. After being comfortably ahead. But we have the ball.
These are the moments when a top-level QB and a good play-caller get you over the line...

No doubt about that, it's just strange the record holder (Fletcher) isn't in there. Well I know why, but it's a personal insult to him considering how quickly Lewis got in

Bobby Wagner has had his thirteenth consecutive season hitting 100 tackles or more, surpassing that mark again on Sunday against the Titans . He's now tied with Ray Lewis, but still one season of 100 behind the great London Fletcher (still not in the Hall of Fame)
Was my favourite Seahawk for a long time. Deffo a future Hall of Famer

Yeah I don't think Rodgers is helping your cause much, throwing that much money at him, is not helping things.
Two of the many things I’ve learned about the Jets, Cough:
1. We’re never good enough to cherry-pick the games we win or lose!
2. We’re so bad at scouting and drafting that high picks have become irrelevant (Wilson etc). So tanking is a bit pointless.
But we are SO incompetent that I wouldn’t rule out us trying. And probably failing.

Just four or five games to go in the regular season now. Looking like many of the same contenders again this year: Chiefs, Eagles, Lions, Bills, possibly the Ravens if they can get their act together on pass defense. Steelers, Chargers, Washington and Vikes looking to gatecrash the party.
Biggest disappointment (beyond the ever-present-in-that-category Jets) looks like San Francisco.
The Madden Curse.?

I’m heading out to Seattle in a couple of weeks for our game. I’m fully expecting us to lose, but my Vikes mate coming with me is sure they’ll lose - and I’ve only ever seen us win so far…
So fuck knows

I'd take a win by bribery at this stage! The Jets' season must rank as one of the worst of all time, considering the expectations others had for the team (although, have to say, I always thought it would be a disappointment: never wanted Rodgers, never really rated Saleh as a HC and our o-line was put together on the back of a fag packet).

Honestly, Joe, you couldn’t make it up.
The Jets entire coaching staff needs ripping up and starting from scratch.
Genuinely, I’m not sure if keep a single one of the coaching staff.

That Al-Shaair hit on Lawrence was disgraceful, btw.
It was a late slide by Lawrence, and he should have gone down with his head much lower - to protect himself. But all the same: the defender knew exactly what he was doing. Head-to-head contact, plus two forearms, while the QB was that upright. And he looked straight at the ref after doing it: knew exactly what he’d done.
The Jets just find new, innovative ways to lose. Every week. Today was ridiculous. How many times did we have Seattle at “4th and…” and then give away STUPID penalties - like having a returner (and 12th man) on the field?!
Seriously, it’s a good job Yank sports fans are not like our (WHU) lot: we’d have instigated an intervention by now.
Yet another losing season now guaranteed. And this was, according to some, supposed to be our run at the play-offs. Yeah, right! It’s criminal.
We had seven (SEVEN) attempts at 4th & 1 in one drive and fucked them all up - yet still won! Yeah, you bad
