They wasted Luanne on Lucky!

She could of have been so much more but the writers just didn't care!

I think people are just telling themselves "This is the week Russ & the Broncos put it all together"

Plus no one wants to believe Geno Smith is a better QB then Russ.

I bet on the Jets and it's one of the more baffling lines of the season.

Best sense I can make of it is that people think the two teams are roughly equal (bad Wilson QBs, good defenses) but the Broncos are at home. But yeah, I'd rather have Zach right now and the Jets offense and coaching in general.

Shaughnessy has this old timey sports guy pretentious arrogance you don't really get anymore. He's not JUST a sports dickhead, he's an insufferable martyr who thinks he's fighting The Powers That Be by spreading vintage Larry Bird gossip or whatever the gently caress. That story about Wade Boggs jerking off in the locker room soap dish is treated like the end of Le Morte d'Arthur, and the Red Sox getting a bad call 50 years ago was like how Watergate killed the American Dream.

Usually when WR's make a big stink they have actually accomplished something in the league first. This team is having it's first successful streak in forever and Moore needs to do this loving drama. What an rear end in a top hat. The opposite of a team guy.

It's so hilarious to see this BS when you have AVT playing a new position every week for the good of the team. I almost agree you have to trade him, though I think Saleh may succeed at talking him out of it. I just think pulling this in the middle of the team's best stretch in years is unparalleled levels of selfishness.

He’s trying to get a second contract. He probably doesn’t rate the Jets going 9-8 as more important than millions of future dollars.

It's only his second year. He has a ton of time. The Jets should get him involved more but going nuclear in his second year with 2.5 years of team control left is just really lovely.

If true this could explain why the Jets have so much of an issue getting the passing game started. Trying to force it to the least talented receiver on the field is not a winning strategy.

Being the third WR on a team that’s targeting you less than their running back in the passing game probably doesn’t feel like you’re being set up for success. And the Jets have barely thrown the ball since Wilson came back as well.

It’s one thing to throw a fit a year into a big contract but rookies don’t get to pick where they go or negotiate anything, they’re just stuck with whatever the CBA dictates. It’s hard to fault a guy for feeling like he shouldn’t just wait around for four years and see what happens.

He requested a trade off of 3 games, not 4 years.

I think the point is that Moore doesn't want to wait those 4 years.

Completely agree that this is just a dumb thing to have to deal with during a good run for the team, but it reminds me a lot of the Minkah Fitzpatrick situation. It sucks because you're not gonna get his real trade value from anyone with the complaints public, and worst case scenario he balls out for whoever takes him

Correct. And he shouldn’t. Football careers are very short and what happens in your first few years usually sets the tone for your whole career.
