No, they don't suck. They're average.
I love the Jets, but they weren't exactly world-beaters last year. As Patsies and Phish fans like to remind us, we won the division on tie-breakers in a three-way tie.
You'll be swearing at Hall before the year is over, just like we used to. Pennington made Coles, and that's going to become very apparent very quickly. Thomas is probably the best guy you took from us. We'll miss him, but that's about it. |

Actually, bud, that was a fox. But you keep trying. One of these days, you're going to get something right. |

By the way - nice web site - I liked the tailgating party pic - you bringing the truck to FedEx field? 
They are better than avg, with Coles being phenominal. I watched him make some stupendous catches along with 98% of the normal catches. He stumbled for a 20 yard gain after the catch in one game. Match him up with Gardener and Jacobs on the same field and most 4-3 defenses will be hard pressed not letting someone open. Especially with Jacobs in the slot being guarded by a safety.
Pennington will be a free agent next year too, by the way 
You'll more than miss Thomas when people pour through your guard slot to chase the 40 yr old QB around until he trips on his own feet. |

#1 wide receiver, starting guard, #2 KR in the NFL and your kicker... nobody important?
Well we didn't take Pennington or Martin, but saying that we took 'nobody important' is in your own word, 'just silly'.
I know a few Jets fans up here in Canada and I know there weren't any of them singing the 'Coles ain't that good' tune in 2002... |

Once again you are irrelevant and not much of a football fan if you can't talk football better than you are. Just get on the Jets bandwagon last year did we? |

Hey fellas, think it's a coincidence that Cole$ was nothing but an average receiver at best until Pennington took over the team? Ramsey is no Pennington. He's not even a Testaverde at this point. I'd be very surprised if you saw the same type of production from Cole$ without Chad tossing him the rock. No way that guy was worth a $13.5MM bonus.
Also, ever think that Morton's success might be attributed to the best special teams coach in the NFL (Mike Westhoff)? Hell, an obscure WR Craig Yeast was in the top five kickoff returners in the NFL under Westhoff for the Jets before Morton was here. $8.5MM Bonus for a guy that returns kicks??
Please.
Thomas was a good pickup but you overpaid for him too.

I can...but I like to keep it clean.
Your prediction is assinine. I'd imagine you to be the same.

Or maybe you couldn't get in!

Let's keep it clean boys.
No need for name calling or cursing. If that's a hardship, just take it to the Talking Smack forum, that's what it's there for. |

By the way - that would be spelled incorrectly. "Keep trying, you might get something right."
