Bullshit

 

The producers of a hbo show under a hard deadline working with a 5ish day window isn't editing under the premise of making the carolina panthers look bad.  That's just moronic to even insinuate 

I would argue that they absolutely edit to make the Jets look good. The panthers looking bad is just a byproduct. 

Full disclosure, I didn't watch the game or this episode of hard knocks. Also, from the highlights (if you can call them that) of the game I saw, we didn't need much help looking bad Saturday.

You have the Jets winning the AFC?

 

I seen this before. The media darlings never work out. This is not a Tom Brady situation. Aaron Rodgers gets put on that level but he's just not that great when the games really matter. Rodgers haven't been to a SB in over a decade. Now that he gets a new team in the largest media market we are supposed to crown them the favorites?

 

I seen this before and it usually ends with said team failing expectations. Im not picking the Jets over the Bengals or Chiefs. That's just my opinion. You like them to win the AFC then so be it.

I wouldn't make the favorites over those 2 either, BUT they are certainly in the running. If they did make it to the SB, I wouldn't be surprised.

I feel like Buffalo isn’t evolving or improving much and NYJ and MIA have been adding a ton and already have quickly upcoming pieces.

Doesn't it feel downright wrong to be talking about the AFC East and be completely disregarding the pats?? they completely dominated that pansy-ass conference for so long.

Are you being deliberately obtuse?  It's not about "making the panthers look bad", it's about making the Jets look good.  No one is arguing that HBO has a personal vendetta against the Carolina Panthers...we just happened to be the Jets' opponent, so them looking good and us looking bad kinda go hand in hand.  If they were playing against *insert NFL team here*, it'd likely be a similar outcome.

You hit people for a living, act like it. Too many choir boys not enough tough guys. The panthers have no dawg in them. 

This is what I’m talking about. Like if you sucked, get mad, throw something. Get mad at yourself, get mad at a coach, teammate, idc. Show me you’re willing to fight through this crap. Not nonchalantly say “we have to do better” without any change.

Im willing to bet they edit to get you to watch the next episodes.  HBO doesnt give a damn if the Jets are SB Champs or a rolling dumpster fire, they only care about creating tension and drama that gets you to tune in next week.

More about making the Jets look good

(as others have mentioned already)

      Can we get to 9-8?

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      A winning record would be nice, but I still have us winning around the 6 to 8 game mark. Realistically we should beat the Jets and Saints, that gets us to 5 wins. After that, we have to face a lot of potential play off teams and our divisional opponents. I think we’ll win 1 or 2 of those games to take us to 6 or 7 wins, perhaps 8 wins if we can spring a further surprise.  Is that enough progress for head coach and QB? I’m not sure, it will depend on performances and output. That said, it’s nice to be back in a position where we are thinking about the play offs.

      Eight of Bryce Young's nine wins have come off game-winning drives

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      I would tend to agree about not falling into the trap and paying a below average QB, but sometimes situations can “force” a team to pay that QB. For example, if we play ourselves into a 9-8 like record, then what options will we have in the draft? Or do we avoid the draft and trade for or sign someone in free agency?  I’m not convinced by the 2026 QB draft class. There’s some intriguing prospects but no one that really screams “draft me”. I’m not sure we’ve got anyone really that stands out as a trade candidate or free agent signing. So although we might not want to commit a big money contract to Young, him playing well and showing progress might force the team’s hand.

      Trade Chuba?

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      Realistically we would be looking at no more than a mid round pick for Dowdle or Chuba. Are we really that desperate for a mid round pick? Not really. I would much prefer us utilise the two RBs in a 1-2 punch similar to how we used D-Will and Stewart. After all, Bryce is not Drew Brees. He won’t throw for 300+ yards and carry the team consistently as a passer. So having a strong running game with a 1-2 punch will be beneficial to him, and it will also be beneficial to the RBs because we can spell them and not overwork them.
