I like how the Jets are built but I feel like I am the only one who looks at this list and can only muster up a 'meh'.

LT: okay let's not get into it, the bottom line is he will be the #2 rb.
Holmes: Suspended, moderately one dimensional, not a gamebreaker.
Cromartie: HAHAHAHAHAHA
Jason Taylor: Done.
Kyle Wilson: Awesome, but let me know the next time a rookie CB does something.

They better hope Sanchez has grown leaps and bounds because the roster is simply not that different from the 7-7 team that got let into the playoffs by the Bengals and Colts.

Sean Payton on Brett Favre last year before the NFCCG:

"When you get older in life, you tend to get very careful, and a little more fearful," Payton said, according to players and staffers who were there. "You start thinking about your own mortality. If it rains outside you might not go to the store, especially at night. You figure you'll just wait it out. You might have somewhere to go and you tell yourself I don't want to go there. You don't want to get in a wreck.
"If you keep hitting (Favre), he'll make a mistake. ... I promise you, if we hit him for four quarters, he'll turn into that old man who's scared of the rain."

[Splat]

Any time I have watched Favre in a interview since he came back it feels like his confidence is down, like he knows he can't match his play from last year and he all ready knows this is not going to play out well.

With that ankle and that ****** offensive line, I wouldn't be surprised if his season is over after tonight. Either way, he's not making it through the year.

Everyone talks about Green Bay's line being bad, but they seemed to get better once they got healthy. Minnesota (McKinnie in particular) just dove off a cliff as the season was wrapping up.

LT: I agree.
Holmes: He is our most explosive player we've had here since Santana Moss. When he gets back from his suspension, he'll add another element to the offense.
Cromartie: He's looking real good in our man to man coverage schemes.
Taylor: I agree.
Wilson: I agree but he should make a good nickel for the time being.

But really it all comes down to Sanchez. He needs to improve.

[Hines]

I love Holmes and I'm not saying this because of sour grapes, but dude is VERY inconsistant. You don't know if you'll get dropsies Tone or Super Bowl MVP Holmes. Plus he's a major dumbass that can't stay out of trouble. If he had trouble staying out of trouble in little Pittsburgh, I cannot imagine the type of **** he'll get into in NY.

Rachel Nichols is looking so dope on NFL Live.

Yeah, our line sucks. But the refs paying attention to late hits on Favre will help our cause.

Teddy Bruschi just took the Saints running backs over Adrian Peterson. How biased is this mother ******?

I don't know if he is biased with a statement like that I would lean more towards him just being stupid.

[prock]

You can't say that! He had a stroke!

[General Zod]

Ugh, I got a bad feeling. Basically the entire Vikings secondary is inactive tonight. :-(

The Dave Matthews Band is the best they could get?

You have no soul.

I remember when I was around 13, me and a friend were walking back from the movies. Some car drove by and threw a cd at us, and it was Dave Matthews Band. I didn't take the cd even though it was free.

Bruschi taking Saints RB over AD is funny. How many fumbles did he have in the NFCCG though? That could be his reasoning, but I'd still take AD.

[General Zod]

Hell this is the NFL, your lucky it wasn't Chubby Checker or Bill Haley and the Comets.

I'm scarred at how much I'm agreeing with you lately. I hate DMB.

[DoughBoy]

I hate all of you.

Must. Kill. Dave Matthews.

Stupid may be the better word. They are both NFC teams, what does he have to be biased about?

[wonderbredd24]

Can we just start the ******* game already?

[b316]

God that was horrible why did they have him singing.
