I'm not condoning it, then or now. There is that uncomfortable lineage back to the original incident...... But I believe that it is much like the steroids in MLB and the NFL; if you don't think they were all doing it to get that competetive advantage and keep up with the rest of the league or players, you are naive. Mangini didn't blow the whistle on that one until he needed to wound his former bosses more deeply than he could have by continuing his own taping. But he didn't come forward when he was the beneficiary... I do believe it was done league wide with a wink wink, don't tell, we're the NFL mentality. You want to compete, you did it. Now it is a rally call for all the BB haters. They hate losing to him. A lot.
But I fail to see how that strengthens your case for Cassel being a better choice for qb than Brady.....

Lets get back to the Pats/Jets

We need to put Revis on Welker and Cromartie on a tight end. I just can't take it when it is 3rd and 6 and Welker catches a 4 yard pass and darts ahead for an extra 3 yards for the first down. Please have Revis take him away.

Problem is that we don't have a third or fourth corner back to cover Branch or their other wideout because Lowery has a concussion and Wilson has been a bust so far. The idea in the off season was to get more options at corner back after the AFC Championship game showed that the 3rd and 4th corners were unable to cover.

On offense we need to do what Cleveland did and destroy the Patriots on the ground. If we can't run over them we are in trouble. We need to get Keller the ball and Cotchery kills the Pats.

First time we had no Pace and no Holmes and Slauson did not know what he was doing. Pool has been a disappointment.

Need to fake the slant with Holmes and go up top. Need to eliminate the Pat's running game- 3rd and 8 is better than 3rd and 3.

Need to make a special teams play and hope that Folk can make his kicks.

Need Jason Taylor to go back in a time machine. Need Shaun Ellis to get his usual one sack against Brady. Need Edwards to catch one long ball.

Need Sanchez to throw some long outs. Need Brad Smith to throw out of the Wildcat.


I get so manic that I need 3 shots of Don Julio before the game just to watch the game.

If you are going to try to compare Brady & Cassel, you should not overlook their schedules because they aren't even close.

Last I checked the season series is 1-1. Of course NE's win counts more ( who would argue with all the HUGE Patriot fans who discovered football in 2000). Let's not forget the buttkicking Cleveland gave NE that counts too.

who cares

2000 huh, try 1969 for me

not to worry, your team will get in the tournament, but hopefully this year your coach won't embarass himself not realizing it

good effort last night , but I think Brady and the Pats made up for their effort in the first matchup down there.

You're kidding, right? I had been to Patriots-Jets games at Fenway by the time you were being weamed of diapers. At Fenway Park no less. In Joe Willie's heyday.... Yep, the Browns definitely took it to the Pats. The team sucked it up and has now buttkicked the three strongest teams in the AFC. Two of which have recent Super Bowls to their credit. The third team, (who might that be?) appears to be the beneficiary of a loud, quotable coach, HBO hype, and a weak schedule. Eight of nine wins against opponents who aren't over .500........ Good team, but still smoke and mirrors. They got exposed last night. Bad day to be a Jets fan.

Jet fans getting off the bandwagon in droves over at SOL. Another day that it sucks to be a Jet fan. Miami ran it up on them, 10-6.....

No, good teams can get back up from a whuppin'.

Teams that have eked out a string of lucky wins, and buy into the swagger of a blowhard head coach, are the ones who have a hard time getting back up.

Just when you thought things couldn't get worse for the jets...



Stay classy New York.

Skips a good dude, he just rode the short bus all 6 years of high skool. The cheifs got whooped yesterday too, without 85 yards from Cassel.

Does your incessant whining make you feel better? How about you just shut the hell up and suck it up? It's a fishing forum , so please just stop.

That sums it up perfectly.....Rex Ryan is the biggtest Blowhard in the NFL right now.

I think he just wants to have his own Reality TV show.

I am embarassed to say I am a JETS fan after the coach tripping the Dolphin yesterday. Why isn't this guy fired?

That goes way beyond being a bad team or having a cocky coach. That shows the coach has no control over the team. This organization is out of control. I can see 3 more losses.

Time for Rex to go after this season. Time to bring in a respected proven coach like Gruden. Everyone is on the 2nd year QB. No way does he get most of the blame here.
