The good news..

Yesterday was a hard loss but the good news is, we still remain in the No. 5 Wildcard spot due to everything that occurred yesterday. Now I will say this, next week is a must win. We need to beat the Seahawks . At least it is a home game where we play pretty good. We will get things back on track. Anything can happen guys. Last time couple games have been hard to take I know but we still are in a good position to make the playoffs where anything can happen . Let’s Keep Pounding!

I get the frustration buddy but you never know. I was just thinking back to 2013. We were 1-3 I believe. The players called a players only meeting if I can remember correctly. I remember Greg Hardy talking about it. Steve Smith Stood up and said we aren’t losing any more games and the we go on a 9 game winning streak. This team needs to take accountability and get that fire back. If we can get hot the next few games, who knows what could happened.

Whats the point of even going to the playoffs?  We will have to play on the road regardless, against I'm sure a high powered offense....so whats the point?

And we lost in our first playoff game.

Playoffs is a whole another season. Everyone is 0-0. I would rather go and have a chance then to start our offseason at the end of the December and having to wait 8-9 months to see our games play again.

Not long ago,.. the NY football Giants were like a 9-7 team that barely made the playoffs..  they got hot and ended up beating the  NE patriots  in the Super bowl,,  You never know when a team will get hot..

That's why you want to make the playoffs every year..

No one is making the complainers watch

The team is pounding something, unfortunately it doesn't involve playing football or winning games. They are not playoff material.

I agree i dont think this team will make it out the first round, let alone has a chance to win the conference.  But, I do want to get the 2 consecutive season monkey of our back.  Just hope a winning season doesnt keep the same HC and GM around.

    • Too late to edit above but the quote is from this Diane Russini article in the Athletic: https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/5941684/2024/11/23/russinis-what-im-hearing-the-day-the-jets-fell-apart-and-the-broncos-rallied-belichick-best-fits/ Okay.. there you have sorry I left that out the first post.  Also waivers keep the contract intact. That is the major difference in released and waived. It's all in that link from the other post.
    • Okay so I am reading something in The Athletic and it says that Jones had to pass through waivers. So I don't know. I looked this stuff up when we were number one there all offseason and I thought it said 4 years in the league got you vested, as they call it.  Vested gets you out of waivers as I understood it. I probably got something wrong, but when I think about the slack quality of journalism these days I wonder about that. So I went and looked, again. Well, well.  For everyone: "When a player has accrued at least four seasons in the NFL, they are considered a vested veteran. When these vested veterans get cut, they are released and their contract is terminated. When a vested veteran is released, they are an unrestricted free agent that can sign with any NFL team, and the team that released them doesn’t need to provide any additional compensation." It runs it all down here, where the quotes came from: https://www.profootballnetwork.com/waived-vs-released-nfl/ As far as Jones, the team turned down his 5th year option so I knew that meant he had 4 years in, because they re-signed him anyway, after turning down the much cheaper extra year.  The Athletic is owned by the New York Times so I shouldn't be surprised. That paper was an institution once upon a time but they let their standards go.
