The 2010 Jets - Lots and lots of trash talking (1 Viewer)

[parrot]

What you had was a TEAM that really bonded more than any team I've ever watched...

I don't know, the Steelers were dry-humping each other yesterday. That's some pretty good bonding.

Not winning the Super Bowl lessens their win over NE though. Just like if you can get past the Yankees in the American League, you better win the WS or you are still just second fiddle. AFC East will be exciting next year Im sure.

That Pats game WAS their superbowl

Will be interesting to see when Rex's act will wear thin in the NYC market.At least sports area will be more listenable in the near future.Until proven otherwise he's taking on the role of Bum Phillips right about now.-QG

barring at least 2 straight bad seasons, no way....yea he's talked, to 2 afc titles games with a quarterback with just 2 years under his beltthey beat manning on the road, then brady on the road, then fell short against pitt....karma?? not really, more like the way sports works....you're telling me if rex and the jets laid low and shut their mouths the whole year they'd have better karma and in turn a better chance to win the game?not really karma, you're basically picking the field against the jets.....now if the jets collapsed and missed the playoffs, then perhaps the karma angle makes more sense.....if bad karma got them all the way to the afc title game, then they didnt really do anything all that bad right?

I'm just saying that things change really fast in this market. They go 8-8 and out next year and the big talk will wear thin. His dad's act wore thin even though he had turned things around in Philly pretty quickly. Look at the way Coughlin's talked about. With someone of the bravado of Rex, he'll make that rope shorter, not longer.-QG

EVERY "ACT" wears thin.....Herm Edwards act of blabbering incoherant nonsense and pretending to know a damn thing about football wore thin....Mangini's Bellichik Jr, wall of silence wore thin.....Most HC's IMO get about a 5 year window (except Marvin Lewis - WTF has that guy done to stick around????)But, damn 2 Championship Games with a QB with level of experience as Sanchez... Rex has got a little rope here - If Rex somehow went into IND then into NE then into Pitt and won each one of those games and came back and beat the Packers, you would have to build a statue of the man.... It would have been one of the greatest things I've ever seen in sports....

Well with Marvin it's more the factor that anyone Mike Brown selects would surely be worse. As far as coaches lasting...I don't think Cowher's act ever got old with the Steelers, or Noll's. Did Bill Walsh wear out his welcome in SF? Lots of examples.If you want to talk about the NYC market, there's the example of Joe Torre - and he was welcome to the town with headlines that read "Clueless Joe". Then again he won a ton. Maybe Bobby Valentine's a better example of a guy who lasted a long time in the market without really delivering the goods at the end.The dogs are already coming for Schottenheimer. I'm not saying it's fair. I'm just saying it is the nature of the market that a coach like Ryan is he's gonna burn hot, bright, and fast. Hell the Mangenius was feted all over the place, appeared on the Sopranos and was gone in what, like 2 years?It's impressive what he's done, but not all ACTs are created equal. It'll be interesting to watch it unfold especially with all the changes they will have next year -QG

It WILL be As usual.....Remember last offseason when people freaked out about how the Jets ruined the locker room by letting Jones and Faneca go?????? LOL, I knew that was complete hogwash. We have grown men, veteran players who can't express their love enough for this locker room and REX and outside players wanting in.Looking forward to the changes.... Some of these guys IMO were purely Hold the fort like Jason Taylor.I still say he's been running a defense that lacks players and can't wait to see what he can do if he gets a legit pass rusher... Bottom line, like I said from day 1 REX KNOWS FOOTBALL... And that's what trumps all.Hey, I was a Yankee fan done with Torre... He lasted 12 years, in Yankee years that's like 30. It was time for a change. But, Torre never knew baseball like Rex knows football - Torre had the best talent...Rex doesn't have the best talent... He has a good team in a conference that has 6 other good to great teams ALL good enough to represent the AFC.As for Schottenheimer.... I won't shed a tear if he's gone.. He did a good job working with Sanchez but, the play calling at times is mind boggling.I have to chuckle how the haters get all excited over the Jets last 2 years of losing in the Championship Game....... Really???? Sheesh, as a sports fan i would never even bother with such a thing.. Being a Yankee fan I'm quite used to that treatment and I hope the Jets continue to remain in that stratosphere where losing in the AFC Championship game gets people excited.. I can get used to this BRING IT ON

:karma:??

Two straight AFC championships games, not favored in either one, and we are talking about karma?

That's sad, wish my team had more bad 'karma' like the Jets.

Here's a quick tip: waiting all year long, then posting victory threads about karma after a team makes the final four, that's the definition of a hollow victory.

I don't like Ryan's routine, not a believer in Sanchez, and thought they got way too much hype this year. Well, Ryan's routine isn't for me to like, and looks like I was wrong about the other two things as well.

The Jets will look much different next year. They need to resign Harris, and will choose from Holmes and Braylon most likely. Throw in that Cromartie may get CB1 money somewhere else, things could change pretty quickly. So hard to get to one Championship game, let alone two. Now to get back there again next year? I hope I am wrong, but I am skeptical.

The Jets are a damn good football team as someone said above. They lost to a better team. Not by much, though. Also, Ryan's act will wear thin when he loses, not before then. This team is finally relevant, he'll be around until they aren't.

AFC East will be exciting next year Im sure.

They did win the 2nd biggest game in their historygranted they have lost 4 AFC championships, but those games were not as big as beating the pats

So the second biggest game is not one of those AFC championships? Wow, that explains a lot.Lets win a AFC Divisional game, but lose 4 AFC championships, lol, sorry I have to question your fandum if that satisfies u.Glad that pleases you.

Not my words, I was quoting RexI agree with you

Rex doesn't have the best talent...

REALLY????!!!!!!Jesus, some list all the 1st rounders they have playing there. This is the Yankees of the NFL. Buying all the talent they can and still sucking feet.

I was unaware the Jets did any significant trash talking during the week of the AFC Championship Game.

You have a link?

They were all business, and played it straight.

Pats? #### them. #### their fans. #### their coach. The whole lot of them are arrogant and deserve the disrespect the Jets showed them.

Its like a trash talking kid in school, shutting up cuz the bully is around and wanting to meet him at the bike rack, they got scared...and played like it. Thats all that happened this past week, do you think the Jets really wanted to make Harrison mad? And to be honest, I'm glad the Jets lost...even better the shot of Shrex throwing down his headset as he realizes he "didnt have the best team all year"....Go Steelers, well, actually go Pack...but any team that shuts up the Jets is a new favorite of mine. I wonder if this game was about Tomlin and Shrex...If it was Tomlin owned him.

Yea, you're absolutely right. The Steelers were the big bad "bully"...certainly not the 14-2 Patriots coming off a 45-3 thrashing with their MVP QB and Coach of the Year leading the assault The Steelers were the better team and the better team won. The Patriots (in my opinion) were also the better team, and the Jets were able to outplay them on that Sunday. It was a fun season that fell short of expectations, and at the end of the day, there are 31 teams who fall short of expectations and probably only a relatively small percentage of fans who can truly say that they had some fun. I'm glad I was one of them. Still can't wait to see what happens next year

I really don't think something like the number of first rounders is indicative of how much talent a team has.Vernon Gholston was a first rounder (and a high one at that). James Harrison was undrafted. And I have no idea how you can possibly say that the Jets are buying talent when there is a salary cap. This team has very few impact big money free agents.But for the record, the Jets first rounders.....Sanchez- DraftedTomlinson- Free agent, but didn't get huge money and is obviously on the downside, if not doneEdwards- TradeHolmes- TradeKeller- DraftedFerguson- DraftedMangold- DraftedEllis- Drafted Gholston (didn't play yesterday and unfortunately, was drafted)Pryce- signed as a free agent mid-season after the Ravens cut himPace- big money free agent signingRevis- DraftedCromartie- TradeBryan Thomas- DraftedWilson- Drafted

To Whoever Started This Topic:

You realize this is exactly what the Jets did last year too right? They talked smack all year long and lost in the AFC championship. Rex Ryan has 4 road wins in 2 years in the playoffs. That's not bad.

(As a Seahawk fan, I would gladly that.......)

Not everybody can live up to your example.

Before Rex came, the Jets hadn't really been relevant for quite some time, and were the clear second fiddle to the Giants. Now, they've made two straight AFC championship games and they should be good for the foreseeable future. On that alone, I would say that what Rex brought to the table was "worth it."But aside from that, is what Rex does wrong? People complain when coaches speak in cliches and platitudes, and then Rex comes along who is nothing but honest and complimentary of his players, and of other players as well, and people take shots at him. Lost amidst all the "trash-talking" was the fact that Rex was borderline reverential in how he talked about Bellichick, and he has nothing but respect for most teams in the NFL. I don't really see why so many people dislike him, except that maybe he vocalizes the things that other coaches say behind closed doors?

maybe because he has a fat yap, coaches his team to trip other players, and fakes injuries a half dozen times a game for free time outs if he can't compete on the field.basically, if belichick did 10% of the #### ryan does, you'd be on here every week crying a river about it.

Basically, we need a separate board for 12-year-olds.
