I did. I looked at the standings. You’re behind. Just like scoreboard a couple weeks back.

Meh. It doesn't matter but the Jets have just played much better than Miami has all season. That isn't saying much though. They are like 40+ point differential too.

That’s what I meant by them being equal. We’re all terrible.

And again I think your reasoning is flawed. Did Miami outplay New York in the 31-28 game?

Like I said...

If the Jets can't beat the terrible Bucs without Jameis and Evans that would be pretty bad.

its fitzpatrick, he will do inexplicibly well so someone gives him another contract where he's a bust

I’m hoping Miami loses out. We’re on backups. Tannehill is out. Who cares? Better to have the one poo poo year and rock a top 10 pick in the 1-2-3 -4 rounds.

Team need @ o-line + TE is through the roof.

He had a decent game against Arizona. If he can string a couple of those together he's got another payday in the bag.

He'll eventually run out of teams to sign for though. Unless someone forgets they already gave him a big contract and repeat the mistakes of the past.

EJ Gaines being out today is huge against Brees, though I hope I am wrong.

Bills next four are Saints, @Chargers, @kc, Pats.

They can very easily be 6-6 after this stretch. That Jets game will haunt them at the end of the year.

Thats what happens when your terrible QB plays like the player he really is. They need to lose the rest of the games now.

If you lose to a 2-6 team without their QB and best WR you are a fraud. Tank is back on.

It’s really good to me that before the season jets fans were saying they were tanking but would talk about how afraid they were that the team would win too much for a good pick while staying out of the playoffs, and then they went .500 and they were hype and forgot all about it, and now it’s crashing back in on them

Reign on me.
The Dolphins really should be like 1-8 with a lone win over the Matt Cassel led Titans.

I didn’t even bother watching after they let the Panthers score just before half, I knew what was coming.

I hope Ross is wise enough to clean house after Gase goes 6-10 next year. No team in the league starts every game down 2 scores except Miami.

Oh well at least Gase has the bye week now to straighten out some issues

When they were 3-2 I said it was somewhat likely that they’d end the season 3-13. Obviously they’ve beaten that but they’re a bad team thats super young other than at QB. There’s a lot to like going forward assuming they make a play for a QB in the offseason.

Has there ever been a second round QB that never played a snap for the team that drafted him?

Damn it, this always happens. I think I'm gonna score, and then I never score. It's not fair.

Once the season begins, it's hard to develop backups because their practice reps are few and far between. Hackenberg and Petty split the scout-team reps. If one throws an incomplete pass, he yields to the other. Bates developed that system to make it competitive.

That sounds.... really dumb.

Let's just make it as hard as possible to get into a rhythm and actually loving learn something. Practice works best when you can retry the thing you failed at immediately, not when you have to wait every single time you gently caress up. Not all forms of competition are good. It's also made so that you get taken out right at the best possible time to learn, right after you make a mistake.
