  1. He really does. And he is likely the most boring guy in the locker room. No point in having him do it.
  2. This is Fat Alice. Other guy was a cheap knockoff.
  3. After Sunday’s 19-14 loss to the Panthers, Jets head coach Robert Saleh complimented rookie quarterback Zach Wilson‘s “resolve” after watching him take six sacks and 10 hits over the course of his NFL debut. Wilson struggled early, but threw two touchdowns in the second half to give the Jets some hope of pulling off a comeback. The second of those scores came a couple of plays after he took a massive hit from Panthers defensive lineman Derrick Brown that left him feeling like he “got hit by a truck for a second.” The feeling that he survived a car accident didn’t go away after the game, but Wilson said it was just part of the learning process for a rookie quarterback. “Yeah, neck’s a little sore,” Wilson said, via Andy Vasquez of USAToday.com. “A little whiplash. But I’ll be alright. . . . It’s tough but it’s part of the job, right? It’s why we sign up to play quarterback. I feel like I’m getting better, experiencing having stuff in your face, you’ve got to be able to play. You can’t just say, ‘Uhhh, there’s pressure, I can’t do my job.’ That’s why quarterback is a tough position to come by. So it’s good for me and I’m going to continue to get better at that.” Wilson might have found some lessons from the game, but getting pummeled like that on a weekly basis is not going to be a plus for his development. That makes improved protection a clear priority for the Jets as they move forward this season.
  4. Corn is a decent nickel. Gives options to replace injured harstfield.
  5. Not unless he moved from New Orleans to Mt Holly
  6. Since when does anyone need to justify ripping on a NFC South Rival QB for any damn reason?
  7. After Sunday's games, Carolina's defense led the NFL in Week 1 with: 6.0 sacks (t-1st) 8 passes defensed (t-1st) 54.1 opponent comp pct (1st) 2.65 yds/rush att (1st) 9 QB hits (t-2nd) Posted from the twitter app
  8. This topic doesn't pass the quality assurance test. Needs some flare.
  9. Yep. It is weird for anyone to cross the room entirely while a star player in the NFL is speaking. Bad form. I didn't recognize him. Could be Jets media. But CMC wasn't upset about the question from Darin at all. It was a good question.
  10. Darin was asking the question. Not sure who it was that left and interrupted him. Didn't recognize him. Could be Jets media.
  11. From Panthers.com Carolina won its first season opener since beating Dallas to start the 2018 season. The Panthers' defense recorded six sacks, their most since a 2019 win in London over the Buccaneers. The Panthers had eight passes defensed, tied for their most since that game in London. After allowing opponents to convert nearly 50 percent of third downs last season, the Panthers held the Jets to 4-of-13 (30.8 percent) on third down. Carolina held the Jets to 45 net rushing yards, marking the fifth time in the last nine games (dating to Week 11 in 2020) that the Panthers have held an opponent to fewer than 100 rush yards. Carolina's 272 net yards in the first half were its second-most first half yards in a game dating back to 2015 (2020, Week 5 at Atlanta, 312). The Panthers struggled in the red zone, converting just one touchdown on four tries. After a 2020 season where Carolina went 3-8 in one-score games, the Panthers held on in the fourth quarter to win by 5. This was the first time the Panthers have won a game with a final score of 19-14. Quarterback Sam Darnold threw for 279 yards and a touchdown, and rushed for a score. It marked the seventh-most passing yards in his career and the fifth game where he recorded a rushing and passing touchdown. His 234 yards in the first half were the most he's ever thrown in the first two quarters. Running back Christian McCaffrey had 30 touches for 187 scrimmage yards, including 98 yards on the ground and 89 through the air. He passed Walter Payton with his seventh career game with at least 75 rushing and 75 receiving yards. McCaffrey also passed Wesley Walls (324) to move into fourth place in franchise history with 329 career receptions. Wide receiver Robby Anderson had a 57-yard touchdown catch, his 10th career receiving score over 40 yards. That's tied for second-most in the NFL since 2016. Linebacker Shaq Thompson had a career day, making 10 tackles with an interception, a sack, a tackle for loss and three pass deflections. It was his second career interception and 10th career sack, but the first time he did both in the same game. In his debut with Carolina, defensive end Haason Reddick had 1.5 sacks and a forced fumble, while fellow defensive end Brian Burns also had a sack. In his first game with Carolina, kicker Ryan Santoso hit field goals of 22 and 29 yards, but missed an extra point.
  12. If you thought Darnold was bad then you have an agenda you are sticking to. 102 QB rating.
  13. Pretty sure Bersickson is the plan until Shi returns. Just don't fumble is the mantra I think.
  14. On punt returns. Didn't do much as a receiver.
  15. True. But Kelvin didn't have two excellent receivers in front of him either.
