I'm not sure what I want to root for, here....a bit of success for Vick so they keep him out there and bury Green? Or no success so it's just a shit show.
 
For the record, I think the Jets are having a teamwide collapse today. I don't even know what Smith could have done, and that's making no excuses for him...he still sucks.

I want some inspired play by Vick to stoke the fires in NYC.

This is almost as much fun as the Pats getting creamed on Monday was painful. The sports gods giveth and they taketh.
 
Damn, the Jets have the greatest punter in history.

26th all time yardage, 25th all time TDs, 4th all time passer rating.
 
He's only 32 so he'll climb up those first two stats quite a bit.
 
Should be top 20 in yards and top 15 in TDs by the end of the year.
Still think he needs to reach if not win a SB to get in.

There are 18 SB era QBs in the HOF and only two never reached a Super Bowl: Fouts and Moon.

The window during which he'll be a leading candidate will be short. Manning, Brady and Brees will all go in first. He and Roethlisberger will be at the head of the class for a couple years, and then guys like Rodgers will start becoming eligible.

I'm not sure he gets there. He needs a championship.

Jets apparently only dressed 4 DL. 2 of them are now out with injury, Oliver has a real shot at 300 total yards.

The two games are pretty similar, as is the above described sense of implosion of the team on the losing end.

As amusing as watching this Jets implosion is, CBS can feel free to switch to the Chiefs/9ers game whenever.

So that stat they just gave in the jets game, I wonder how many games in history it has held true for entire game. And I am not referring to the 62 yards or 4 first downs
