2008/2009

gonna pick up dwayne bowe for my fantasy team.

Rams gonna win the NFC West if we can stay healthy. LOVE our new offensive coordinator, Saunders.

Rams/Chiefs Super Bowl

Missouri baby. Fuck yeah

LMFAO

It could happen. :shifty:

Yo Krisp, you "LMFAO" at the idea of the Rams beating the Saints last year, too :)

G-MEN

I still do..

The St. Louis Cardinals and and Kansas City Royals are more likely to make the Super Bowl than those two teams.

<font color=goldenrod>Feels weird going into the year as the defending champs...never experienced this before</font>

Brocos

Colt Brennan

They say its lonely at the top, in whatever you do, you always gotta watch motha fuckas around you. :cool:

shaun hill

ZING!!!

:|

AYYOOOO, Just got sweet fucking tickets for Rams/Hawks in Seattle, section 205, right by one of the endzones basically. Wooorddd.

Didn't you go to Seattle once and say it was terrible? That stadium has to be one of the worst places to go if you're rooting for the other team

Patriots wont make the playoffs this year.

It was absolutely terrible, never felt worse basically. BUT, this time I am not rocking Rams gear, gonna wear a hoodie or some shit, or a t-shirt. Fuck that, still gonna be cheerin for the rams, but don't want everyone there throwing beer bottles at me feel me.

God I hope not. But they probably will :mad:

Broncos are winning the West this year.

<font color=goldenrod>What I hate is that so many of my friends (ironically...Packers and Pats fans) are all like "Well the Giants are just a 10-6 team that happened to get hot at the right time, they weren't the best team in football by a long shot :roll: "

All I can say to that is "isn't the goal of every team to make the playoffs and get hot at the right time?"

Fuckin idiots.</font>

I think they get the AFC east by default of the other 3 teams sucking...

Exactly. To be honest, rarely does the best team in the regular season actually go on to win the whole thing. Hell, it doesn't matter if you make the playoffs with a 7-9 record, as long as you win the Super Bowl then it doesn't fucking matter.

I don't mind playing the AFC east, Rams can go 3-1 against that, but playing the NFC East is gonna suck ass.

Fuck Shun Andrew's depression

Colt Brennan looked foreal in that preseason game. Ofcourse, he didnt have Bob Sanders all up in his shit, but he looked good.

I've had people say that to me too. I don't give a fuck. The Giants won the Superbowl. They put it together at the right time. Last time I checked thats just the same as a team that steamrolled every opponent and won a Superbowl.

lol

:(

What is wrong with that

Atleast we can still get high

Honestly, FUCK YOU Steven Jackson. Report to camp, accept the offer they fucking made you, it would put him in the top 5 highest paid backs in the league, and he only had 1 year essentially that he proved he can be a top 5 back in the NFL. Jesus Christ.

<font color=goldenrod>Exactly.

It feels weird...you would think that after winning the SB my expectations would be high, but they aren't. Last year, I was expecting them to at LEAST get past the Wild Card round of the playoffs and it would be a good year. This year...I'd probably only be pissed off if they missed the playoffs altogether. It's like being responsible for one of the best comebacks and upsets ever has actually LOWERED my expectations, and I'm not sure why.</font> :o

My hopes are high for a strong showing in 2008. I would be extremely pissed off if the Giants missed the playoffs this year. I think that 2007's results are as good as you can hope for. The only way to repeat them would be to in fact, repeat.

<font color=goldenrod>Yeah, that might be what it was. In 2007, I knew that they had to make the playoffs and win at least one game there after back-to-back first round losses, or else Coughlin was toast.

This year, Coughlin isn't toast under any circumstances...and I'd only think its a bad year if they don't make the playoffs. A first round exit wouldn't even bother me so much (as long as it's not a slaughter like against the Panthers 2 years ago)...obviously I'd love to see them go deeper, but yeah. Hard to grill the team after last year.</font>

Holy shit! Breaking News : Favre traded to Jets!

Where you seeing this?

ESPN just reported this on SportsCenter. They just had Mark Schlereth (sp?) on, talking about it.

Yeah my brother just walked by and mentioned it being on ESPN. Figured it would be plastered all over sport websites, guess it hasn't gotten to them yet.

Does this make the Jets kinda legit? Oh fuck, Rams play the Jets this year. Fuck this trade!

woo

The country boy in the Wranglers is gun slingin INTS all over New York!

I'm just happy he's not a Tampa Bay Fuckinqueer..

Awesome. Not crazy about Favre really, didn't really want this, but fuck it now. Brett Favre is a Jet :cool:

At least this bullshit is over with now. Thank god.

All I can think of is that lady who covers the Yankees saying how Roger Clemens is a New York Yankee, except replace it with Bret Farve and the Jets

BRETT IS IN THE BOX! BRETT FAVRE IS A NEW YORK JET! OF ALL THE DRAMATIC THINGS IVE EVER SEEN, BRETT FAVRE IS A JET!

lol yup

You're just happy you don't have to play him twice a year..

<font color=goldenrod>Guessing Chad Pennington's gonna get cut within a few days and head over to Minnesota.</font>

holy shit

Favre to...............

Wait who is the Jets #1 wideout?

Wayne Chrebet

Is Curtis Martin still the starting tailback?

Neil O'Donnell

This is crazy shit. I have a feeling it is not gonna work out at all and this is kinda a waste of a year if he just leaves after this season but whatever, gonna be a mad exciting season to watch and will get the Jets a lot of coverage obviously and make them a "team to watch". :mad: Also their schedule is mad easy this year so who knows

RIP Chad :'(. I will never forget 2002 :wavesad:

Gonna be crazy weird to see Pennington in a diff jersey. Such a lovable guy. :'(

...And you're thinking about going to Palestine.

NAH saving that for like February-March :cool:

Dammit Chiefs you fucked this up. :mad:

He knew he was slow, and he knew he couldn't throw more than 15 yards without completely floating it. But he seemed like he cared/tried SO HARD :'( Was always fucking standing on the bench waving towels around whenever the defense was on the field, and he was always right there on the sideline when he was in a cast (which was almost always :( ) Love the guy

John Clayton from ESPN:

I wonder if they'll change the Madden cover to a Jets uniform. :lol:

Shut up John Clayton you huge fucking nerd

Has Madden 09 been released? Sorry if that is the dumbest question ever.

Next week I think.

No, nowhere near enough time to change the cover, much less the roster. Unless you download the roster updates Favre will porbably not even be in the game... Back to Chad :'(

Roster update.

To come out of retirement and have only hopes of a wild-card berth has to be disappointing to Favre.


LOL

It can't be. Tommorrow morning there will probably be reports of the trade falling through or something

http://www.nyjetsfan.com/images/chadbill.gif

Come on, you can't beat that

LOL the head fake

Raymond,
Go Jets!
-Chad Pennington #10

Has to be the highlight of his career right there.

The best is it was like 31-3 in the 4th quarter and 4th and goal from like the 1 and fucking Paul Hackett roles Pennington out and he just puts DA MOVES on London Fletcher

Can't wait for Mike & Mike in the morning tommorrow, Greeny will be absolutely losing it. All he has been talking about for the last few weeks is how elated he would be if Favre went to the Jets

Yeah been listening to M&M. Pretty hilarious with his songs and what not.

Jets fans will be thrilled when they see a pass travelling over 25 yards.

= 10-6 seems real likely I think, considering they could also win a couple of the games I put as an L

LMFAO @ the new details of trade.

Pick is a 3rd rounder if Favre plays 50 percent of snaps.

2nd rounder if Favre plays 70 percent of snaps, and Jets make playoffs.

1st rounder if Favre plays 80 percent of snaps, and Jets make Superbowl.

COME ON
<!-- / message -->

yeah definitely staying up for that

The Broncos deadly Wide Out corps for the first 3 games of Keary Colbert and Brandon Stokely is pretty exciting too guys

To be fair everyone will be a loser when that game comes around

<font color=goldenrod>Supposedly in the game, Favre isn't in the exhibition rosters but when you start a franchise you have the option of either keeping Favre retired or transferring him to one of the 32 teams.</font>

Awesome! When it was being talked about Favre going to the Jets I wasn't thrilled, just thought it would be a waste because it's a short term fix and he'll only be there for a season. But hey there's always time to start rebuilding next year :P And with the good schedule, could get quite far.

GO JETS.

J.E.T.S. JETS JETS JETS

with the Jets sorry ass luck, he'll blow out his knee first play of week 1 probably

oh and fuck, I would trade away half the team if the fucking Jets get to the Superbowl.

and I thought I wore patriot blinders... wanna bet on 10-6?

I can't wait to see if the over/under for the season goes up and take the under.

Let's be real here guys... he's a 38 going to be 39 during the season year old gun slinger.

yeah, he had a decent year last year.. but look at 2006 and 2005.

He's never had to learn a "new system" since he was traded from Atlanta.

He's never had to learn a whole new set of personel.

What type of shape is he in?

and it's not like this is Feb or March... the season is a month away.

Don't get me wrong, I don't think he's a bum and he's should be an upgrade on Pennington, but a little reality check.

Dunno, I just think the downside for the Jets is bigger then the upside... although at a worst case of a 3rd round pick isn't a horrible gamble..

and Ferguson is going to have to step it up big time... Mangold has been a beast since being drafted but Ferguson hasn't lived up to the hype and if they start spining Favre blind side blocker like a top they're in big trouble.

the contract has a clause that if the Jets deal him to Minessota they owe the Packers 3 first round picks..

So, the Vikes just need another Hershal Walker deal... send 5 #1's to the Jets and the Jets send 3 to GB and pick up 2 1st round picks for nothing!
