There will be 14 seconds on the clock if the Jets recover.

3 chances at the end zone is 14 seconds? Heh. Time is weird.

I have some great analysis: Jets need to try to not get down by 17 points early going forward.

Also, Matt Ryan is good. Falcons should be better. They almost gave away a game they dominated.

This meme is so tired - Blank has been coming down to field level at the end of games ever since he became the owner. People who don't know this and think he was the bad luck charm in the Super Bowl or something are just misinformed.
I got you. Thank you for the clarification. Clearly Blank didn't just mush them in the Super Bowl, he's mushed them in toto.

As long as I live, the Jags drafting Etienne will not make sense to me. Robinson is legitimately very good and it was obvious to anybody who watched him play on a TERRIBLE team last season.

Maybe a good luck charm?

Sorry. That meme never gets old.

WTF are you thinking, Burrow? Slide or get out of bounds, don't open yourself up to get destroyed. Really hope he's okay.

My son is a Jags fan and was apoplectic about the Etienne pick on draft night. Picking a RB in the 1st round is always questionable; for a team with a good young RB and lots of other holes, it was inexcusable.

Would you remind us how this happened?
That letter J hooks some foolish children
Pretty much. I think he liked the unis when he was 6, plus he has a soft spot for underdogs, even more than most of us. But it blossomed quickly into serious fandom — a few years later, he explained to me in detail on draft night why the Jags were going to draft Blake Bortles when no one was expecting it. Now he’s 16 and still loyal. Even rooted for the Jags against the Pats in the CCG.

That was just about the best Red Zone 4pm moment ever. I can't remember 4 games literally having game changing moments at the end of the game, simultaneously.
