Honest Review #6

Honest Review #6: Mercy
Let me start off by correcting myself from week 3, THIS IS THE WORST GAME OF THE SEASON. I had so much confidence going into this game with the amount of the talent on both sides of the ball, plus the way Arizona was playing football. Ryan Fitzpatrick who I have loved since he made his first start last year in Week One. I backed him after his terrible performance in Week Three in Kansas City. I cannot back him after this performance in Arizona. Fitz’ final line was 16/31 one hundred and seventy-four yards and an interception. The white flag was flown when the Jets put in third year man Geno Smith in the fourth quarter. Geno, who I loved in his rookie season, and thought the Jets in 2013 were only one step away with Geno in the back field. Geno in this game went 4/6 thirty-one yards and an interception. Geno is not the answer for this offense and he never will, just plain and simple. In my opinion Bryce Petty is the answer for this offense. Unfortunately, that won’t be until next year with Petty being on IR.

This offense is just absolutely deplorable and it is not the fault of Brandon Marshall, I actually feel horrible for Brandon Marshall. Matt Fortè has been nothing short of awful this season, excluding the Week Two win (because the entire team was on fire). Fortè had nine carries for nineteen yards and only one catch for three yards. Fortè also dropped a key third down ball in the first half that killed the drive.

Moving on to the defense that I love so much. Well this week it only showed sites of being a great defense. The defense couldn’t tackle to save their lives. Penalties absolutely killed the defense and prolonged the Cardinals drives to extend the lead and kill clock. Another thing that I noticed about the team as a whole is the fact that the Jets can’t get good field position at all throughout the entire game. The first four drives for the Jets started inside the Jets own twenty-yard line.

For the amount of confidence that I have had throughout the week and most of the game, I have none following that loss. I will say this, it is not Todd Bowles fault, blame will be put on his shoulders, but he can only do so much. Chan Gailey needs to be fired, Ryan Fitzpatrick and Geno Smith need to be benched if that was only possible. What this team is lacking is depth and right now that is killing the team as a whole. Eric Decker has missed more than I anticipated and that will become devastating for the Jets for the rest of the season. Right now I am now just waiting for pitchers and catchers to begin because I can’t take the heart wrenching pain of watching another terrible loss. After the great season last year just fell short, the entire Jet fan base felt like the team was moving on to bigger and better things, especially after signing Matt Fortè. Right now it is the same old feeling that the Jets have felt since 1970 and that is helplessness and despair after yet another loss.

I don’t know what there is to say after a blow-out no contest game like this. I am not looking forward to Sunday what so ever at the moment. It seems to be at the moment that the Jets will be picking in the lottery in the upcoming draft, and yet another quarterback might be coming off the board and heading into the crap shoot that is Gotham City right now. But as always LET’S GO JETS!

2024 MLB Preview

  Opening Day is about 24 hours away and the Shohei Ohtani gambling story has stole all the headlines and fleeting moments of baseball conversation over the past few days, many have now forgotten about the exciting marathon ahead of us! Even with the ever-evolving Ohtani story clouding the beginning of the Los Angeles Dodgers season, that doesn’t change the fact that L.A. is still the team to beat in baseball. The Dodgers have put their chips at the center of the table, no pun intended, for 2024 to show they can raise another World Series trophy after sending upwards of a billion dollars in free agency. In division however, the surprise Arizona Diamondbacks are capitalizing on their newfound championship window with a fantastic offseason that will have them in the mix to get back to a second straight fall classic. The San Diego Padres are done shopping for superstars, sort of, following a massively disappointing season that saw them move on from one of the games generational talent...

Dan Hurley Saved College Basketball

When you think of Men’s College Basketball, the names of Wooden, Dean, Krzyzewski, Williams, Thompson, and Calipari shoot to mind right away. All the memories of the great teams from UCLA, Duke, North Carolina, Kentucky, the Big East, UNLV, and even the Fab Five start to rush back. Nostalgia of a time when the sport meant something different. For all those longing for the days when great teams didn’t dissipate into the transfer portal after one disappointing year—Dan Hurley and the Connecticut Huskies are here to save the day! UConn has done something that only seven other programs have done in the history of college basketball, repeat as champions. Forget all the talk about “best team of all-time,” even though if you look at point differential (like it truly matters), this UConn team is the best team to ever play in the NCAA Tournament. This team means much more to the game of college basketball than that. Coach Hurley has given college basketball what it has been missing since the in...

Last Year the Season was one game long, it's different this year

  It took 363 days, but Jets fans finally got the debut from Aaron Rodgers they waited for. This time around that debut ended in a blowout loss on the road to the San Francisco 49’ers. Last year the Jets won the battle but lost the war following their overtime walk-off win against the Buffalo Bills. This year, the Jets hope they lost the battle but because they have Rodgers they will win the war.   Of all the ways the game could have gone last night, having the Jets defense get thoroughly dominated on the ground by a third year running back, Jordan Mason, who wasn’t a household name until last night, wasn’t on the bingo card. The trademark for Robert Saleh has been his defense. That’s what got him hired from San Francisco. The defense is what Jet fans have pointed to as a reason for optimism heading into this year with Rodgers. The defense was finally supposed to get the complimentary football they have been dying for since Robert Saleh walked in the doors at Florham Park...
