I think a group of their core guys are getting up there.
Plus, we'll see what defenses can do after a year to prepare against Kaepernick and their offense*.
*except if/when he plays the Packers where he'll be guaranteed 300+ yards.
:lol
That is what everyone says right after they win the Superbowl.
You and I were singing the same tune in 2008 and 2010. Look at how fast those defenses fell apart!
Why it seems like yesterday I was having this exact same argument with you and Buckethead.

When they realigned to 4 divisions in 2002, guess who left the Pats* division, the Colts. It helped both of them to be yearly playoff participants. The Jets have been the Pats* biggest threat and we all know how hilarious that train wreck of a team is.

When Atlanta beats the two hottest/"best" teams in the NFC (San Fran and Seattle), will we finally be taken seriously?
the answer is no, unless we play Baltimore.

Ravens should have acquired Tebow somehow. No way we lose with Tebow, Ray, and God's blessing.
M$. CrApple. Pats*. Nintendo is for babies.

Yeah, that ship sailed last night when that news broke everywhere. Pats are better prepared for him not being in the lineup this time around, though.
But not having him sucks.
I cannot in good faith wear a Flacco avatar. Sorry Larry, I don't want to jinx your team. September seems so far away, I guess I'll have to find constructive to do with my life until then.
That's not even fair.
That's not even fair.
That is blasphemy and the mere thought of Ray influencing Tebow is enough to make me even more nauseous than I already am.
Shirtless League needs a logo and a theme song.
This is an easy fix and makes geographical sense as well: Colts to the AFC North, Ravens to the AFC East and Miami to the AFC South.
While they are at it put the Cowboys in the NFC South and move the Panthers to the NFC East.
I like it.

I know we're mostly talking about the Brady era but here's a fun fact nonetheless: The New England (not Boston) Patriots and Miami Dolphins have won the AFC East 14 times apiece. The Jets have won the division only 4 times (tied with the Houston Oilers!). The last time the Dolphins won it was in '08 and the last time the Jets won it was in '02.
tl;dr - Jets suck.
Post more.
Jets will trade Tebow to the Raven's for gm

Nobody will ever take Atlanta seriously. Ever. Even if they win the Super Bowl.
People hate the Falcons because they personify boring (to the average fan). Their franchise QB has less personality that Eli, their head coach and the other are literally the definition of vanilla, their running back runs a 5.3 40, most people couldn't even name 4 starters on their defense, and play in Atlanta.
They manage to go 13-3 and nobody cares, other teams put up that same record like the Broncos and they are destined for a Super Bowl, it's like the Falcons weren't even in the playoffs in the first place.

Age was never the Pack Defenses problem. Bunch of softies that fluked up for a season to win a championship.
What? Who on the Packers defense is old? Do you watch football anymore?
lol his wife letting him watch football? haha good one

I'm a bit biased but I do too. Russell Wilson IMO is 10 times the QB Colin Kaepernick is, and we still won against the #1 scoring defense and Wilson having a fantastic game with practically no mistakes. I'd be pretty surprised if CK is as poised as RW in his first road playoff game, RW is just a machine. Also I think Ryan will play a lot more loose and it's not like he even had a bad game or anything.

Yeah, but in the last 10 years, the Jets somehow managed to get to the postseason 5 times without a QB while the Dolphins managed to do it once. Though, I think the Dolphins should be on the upswing while the Jets playing footsies with Rex should set them back another 5 years.
I blame the drugs.
I am actually shocked at the age of your defense (i was just going through their ages on NFL.com). I have no explanation for why they looked so slow and weak against the Niners. Age is the excuse of the Steelers, not sure what the fuck happened to the Packers defense.
Shhhhhh....you will reveal my true plan when we bring Luck home in 3 years.

It's true, the Jets were actually fairly decent when that defense was healthy and functioning there for awhile. I mean, they were still incredibly overrated and had no right whatsoever to be in those AFC Championship games but I'll give some credit where it's due.
I hate you guys!
Awful FS play and out of control OLB's basically. Capers also had his head so far up his ass that he apparently couldn't watch the game. He rotated Matthews over the center on multiple third downs to blitz which allowed Kaepernick the entire half of the field to scamper. Just awful defensive playcalling and ridiculous misuse of resources.

That's what stuck out to me the most. It's like the Packers were still using a game plan they drew up for Alex Smith.

I thought he was gonna have a field day with Brady. .5 sack? Brady probably told him "you rebel scum"

Highest profile players being Goldson, Soap, Walker, and Moss. Goldson will probably be resigned. The rest are pretty much replaceable. Don't forget that because of the QB change midseason, the niners will be able to get some cap room by letting Alex Smith go. The front office guys have just been money.

In the office, and, somehow, the Niners fans are trying to talk shit to me about them winning. Is it that they didn't watch the Ravens game? Of course that is the reason, because they didn't even know there were other games. I'm fairly certain some of these people thought that was the Superbowl.
And yes, one lady did yell "Calvin Kaepernick!" and fist pump from her desk.

Safety or OL.
edit: Specifically, a center or tackle. Maybe even a guard depending on if there's someone really good available.

I heard the Dolphins have $60 million in available cap space for next season. How about the Jets?

The like EDS and he did a fine job. Newhouse is coming along and Barclay has been good. Like always, TT will take the best available but I'm hoping that this offseason is spent getting better at linebacker.
I heard they are lacking WRs and ready to give 1 of 2 overrated wrs big contracts

Hmm, well it isn't going to be easy to get Alex Smith in that case. He's already got one of those.
Already sad about Mike Wallace leaving, huh?
