Which is funny because everyone spent the whole offseason shitting on the Jets and saying that they would win 2 games or less.

All of those teams also had dominant (or at least competent) defenses, and kept their QB clean. It's a chicken egg scenario - Which is more important? Franchise guy, or complete team? Unless you're Brady, it's the latter.

I tried to warn everyone the most Jets thing possible would be winning at least just enough games to get away from the #1 pick the one year they actually want (and would benefit most from getting) it

"There's nothing wrong with him and he'll be back soon" - The Colts
Meanwhile he hasn't thrown a pass since day one of this year, and this is how he looks as of late July/early August
Yeah, totally ready to take a hit to salvage a season
Dude drives a glorified Honda and looks like he's headed to see his favorite jam band
Not exactly what I'd imagine a wealthy retired player doing but more power to him
Golden Tate is one of the most exciting players in the league when he gets the ball in his hands. His game winning TD last season on the road in Minny was probably one of my favorite sports moments ever as a fan.
I'm really hoping that Eric Ebron picks it up because the Detroit media has been (rightfully) hammering him after his terrible game against the Falcons.
Vikings v Lions is going to be a great game but in the end the better football team will win.
To me the most Jets thing would be them getting the 2nd pick or 3rd and have some team trade up infront of them. That team then takes the QB the Jets wanted.
was that his recent 38-5 year? 31-8? 40-7? I can't remember...
but go ahead and throw Graham Harrell in the starting position on that Super Bowl team that went 10-6 and barely snuck into the playoffs - let me know how that 'complete' team works out

goddamn he looks like a 40 year old cancer patient.
To shame you for the way you treat your books. If you really cared you would have either paid to have the cover reattached or bought another copy of it.

You're right, Aaron is all you need. That's why the Packers won the last 5 Super Bowls.
I'm supporting my Rams but not holding my breath on them winning this one
Just believe in miracles friend.
To be fair, they did have a high school level defense last year and still made it to the NFC championship.
A QB can only do so much. Not everyone can carry a team like Kurt Warner.

What happened to Andrew Luck? He looks like he lost a lot of weight.

Did the Colts even IR Peyton the year he had nothing left in his neck
No. They kept him off so that he could practice with the team.
Are there pineapples or bananas hiding in there?

What have you done to him Colts? He was the chosen one.
Seriously man. The wrinkles on his forehead are worrisome. The burden of carrying the Jim Irsay Colts may be to much. Here is his Dad for comparison sake (maybe he got Botox?)

that's not my argument, hence my surprise when you discovered that football was a team sport - that response was to show that great talent at the position could consistently make a lot happen with less (moreso than any other position)
you're making it seem like drafting/signing the best talent at EVERY OTHER POSITION is easy and is simply overlooked
GM Deacon: "Hey, guys, I have an idea - instead of that franchise QB, let's throw together one of those complete teams! Maybe we can settle for a 2015 Broncos-tier defense!"
And what year are you giving Brady credit for winning it all by himself?
We need the offense to carry the team during this next 3-4 weeks. Then hopefully we'll get Fletch, Darby and maybe Sidney Jones back for the second half of the season.

Perfect spiral by Stafford over a defender throwing off of his back foot.
While Cox is the best player on the D and 2nd most important behind Wentz, they should be able to win a game or two without him.

Last year. His defense once again shit the bed on him and he had to pull their assess out of the fire.
A lot happen /= winning the Super Bowl. Packers are experiencing this first hand - Packers
are dying a a slow death shedding their offensive line talent and continuously trotting out a mediocre at best D. Is Aaron Rodgers great? Sure. Can he drag the Pack to a Super Bowl victory? All signs so far say no. Drew Brees went through the same purgatory.
And I didn't say get a complete team. I said work on everything else, THEN get your QB! Not everyone can be the Broncos and have PM fall in their lap then subsequently buy a defense for a championship run.
Colts have broken Luck, they should never be allowed to draft a first round qb again. I seriously don't get why he stayed in Indy. He could have gotten paid by a bunch of different teams and those teams would actually surround him with talent instead of whatever the fuck they are tossing on the field in Indy.

wow Luck looks pretty emaciated. I don't think he's gonna play this year.
Colts really screwed up with him.

The main reason GB hasnt made it back to the SB, other than their defensive coordinator being one of the 5 worst in the league, is that they refuse to dip into the free agency pool. Teams that rely purely on drafting well or getting steals in free agency will never be on top.

Irsay said it was a minor surgery and that he would be back before the start of the season. He doesn't want to admit he was wrong/lying. Plus he seems crazy enough to think that maybe by week 6 or so the Colts will still be in it in the terrible south and they can just chuck Luck out their and hope for the best.
Yeah Luck should have at least forced them to tag him like Cousins forced the Skins. Maybe he could have gotten traded to a functional NFL team.
Farooq!
I know you'd appreciate it at least.
That guard had no chance one on one. They need to get him into more alignments that give him a one on one rush. I know he plays nose, but still there aren't too many interior lineman can block him alone.
How is the front-7 looking now?

Colts think their franchise QB will fix everything!
Would be crazy if it weren't a league wide epidemic. Grigson made GM of the year that year he drafted Luck, remember?

I'd like to say dominant, but last week happened.
They're the best they have been in years though. Speed everywhere, effective pass rushing. I really wish Watt was in that game last Sunday as I feel some of the problems where with Chickillo missing his run fits. I'm excited though, especially for Tuitt to come back.
Jason Peters is the one who actually hit that 61 yarder
