A good chunk of those were on Fields. He couldn’t pull the trigger on throws and he just ate it.

If this happens again next week…AG has to put in Taylor.

another week i did not watch. living life!
Go Jets, hope they wake up one of these years.

so…you literally have “Jets” in your name…and you don’t watch the games?

sure don't!
i stopped watching last year, after they fired saleh, or roundabouts.
I ddint' have any special allegiance to Saleh, it just became not worth my time around then.

I'll be back once they have >0 passing yards in a game.

When has it ever been worth anyone’s time? Torturing yourself every week is part of the pain.

if i'm honest, for me it was last worth it in 2015, 10-6 if i recall correctly... & no playoffs, NICE.

To trade Breece Hall or not to trade Breece Hall?

SInce he is in the last year of his contract, there is a lot of speculation around him. I wonder what could you actually get for him?I can’t imagine getting better than a 2…and could you draft another RB in the second round that you know will be as good as him? I haven’t seen enough from Allen to say they are fine without Breece.

I think he has suffered from horrific playcalling that hasn’t taken advantage of his talents. If they are starting over with a rookie QB next year, they need to have a solid running game to support him. And…he says he wants to stay a Jet….which has to mean something considering how bad they have been since he has been there.

I say keep him and extend him unless you get overwhelmed with a trade offer. The Jets don’t have cap issues…so it shouldn’t be hard to fit him in. Also…extend Jermaine Johnson now and hope you can get him at a discount. His return to the lineup was a huge difference against the Broncos.

Ok…I just heard Cimini’s podcast right after my Hall post…he said that the Jet’s would be lucky to get a 4 but more likely a 5 for him. He said it’s unlikely he is moved.

That sounds crazy to me…if it truly is just a 5…there is no way they should trade him. He thinks that SF…and Saleh…will be sniffing around for Quincy Williams..which he thinks is possible. He also thinks that SF would be interested in Jermaine Johnson…but he doesn’t think the Jets want to trade him because they control his rights through 2026.

I don't get the feeling Hall wants to be a Jet. I think he wants to get paid. This is the one contract RB's can cash in on, then their shelf life expires. His gripes about lack of usage or how he's being used, to me, tie back to having the stats to justify a big payday.

Personally? I don't care what they do with him. I like him and all....but the money spent on Wilson is already proven to be wasted for the next couple of years. Why throw another contract on top of that?

 

[Jetskies]

i hate trading away players who I know are good. but we are 0-infinity with the talent we do have, so literally cannot be worse, even with a roster of nobodies. I don't WANT to get rid of guys i love like the Q brothers, but at this point what difference does it make. sigh

Why can’t it be both? He wants to be paid and be a Jet.

He has every right to not be happy with how he has been used by the inept OCs. He also has every right to want his payday.

But…my point is…if you are going to just get a 5th round pick for him…what’s the point in trading him? They will need to draft another RB or sign a FA to fill his spot. Might as well just keep him.

They don’t have cap issues. His contract wouldn’t be as big as a contract like Wilson’s. I just don’t want to create another hole for a fifth round pick. You know what you have with Hall. I would rather build off of that than hope a draft pick or FA RB works out.

And you are right…I don’t really care either. It’s just something to talk about other than how bad this team is.

Yeah, I guess you're right. And I'm probably just tired out and apathetic about anything to do with this team right now.

As a Pats fan who would be happy to have him for a 5th and even a 4th, Jets would need to consider what he'd bring in a comp pick if he signed elsewhere in the offseason. Probably a 3rd or 4th. No reason to take less than that.

Here’s a good one. If you took the current rosters of the Jets and Giants and combined them, including coaching and owner. Could they win the Super Bowl this year?

I say no. Mostly because of coaching and you have to depend on Dart to be good enough to get through the playoffs. I love Dart…but we have not seen enough to believe he could win playoff games.

Combine the Jets and Patriots and I say yes. They would have the coaching and QB.

 

[ShakyTheMohel]

OK…bold prediction this week. I think that Engstrand has finally realized Fields is not Goff…and I think Fields realizes this is his last chance. I think they stop trying to make Fields a pocket passer and Fields stops being cautious.

Of course with Wilson probably sidelined, this will be difficult. And with Carolina playing tough lately they will play with confidence.

I think the Jets come out with a completely different approach. Short passes to Hall and Taylor…designed runs for Fields…and the defense has another solid week. Special teams continues to be special.

So…I am predicting a Jets win. My brain tells me they will lose…but I am going with my heart this week.
