lmfao...i love how Farve is being blamed for Man"Genious" being fired. Comical.
the team won quite a few more than was expected at the beginning of the year.......but what is most being attacked is their porous defense over the past month and a half. Farve also threw for 3400 yards and 22TD, not that you only look at the negative though lol. :rolleyes:
I'm not saying Farve isn't a part of the team, or a reason for them not making the playoffs....but to blame him for Mangini getting the axe is far from accurate.
Yeah it was a cheap shot but the devil made me do it...
Though Farve's antics the past few years with the I'm retired , no i'm not, etc etc etc etc have worn a bit thin with me. It shows a 'it's all about me' mentality that seems more in keeping with T.O. than with Brett.
I agree that Favre's "Sugar Ray Leonard" impression (I retire, No I dont) got old quickly, and, for whatever reason, I lost some respect for him. He isnt the main reason that the Jets folded down the stretch, just like he wasn't the primary reason they played so well earlier in the season.
Early in the year the Jets defense was much improved. That same defense seemed to collapse down the stretch. Mangini's firing comes as no surprise to me, although I wouldn't place the blame on Favre.
It just goes to show you cannot be a gunslinger in the league and win. Especially when that gun is firing blanks because of a bad shoulder. With that said, football is a team game, it took a team effort to collapse the way they did. But they were much improved from last season, I think the fans had their expectations way too high.
yea.. 22 TD to 21 INT's... THATS a good ratio... now I knoew he wasnt going to come in the NY and become Manning/Brady with 30 TD and 15-18 INT's but come on... 1 more TD than INT... I am not placing the blame on him at all... but I dont wnat him back... at all... we can get the same from our backup.
We sucked because of playcalling and poor game management...
It seamed like Man"Gina" was always tring to do something other than what the team was built for. They abandon the run WAY to often. I believe it was KC that we played agains who had given up 200+ rushing yards 3-4 games in a row... and what do we do... throw... nonstop throw... we at that point had the leading russher in the AFC... and we have Leon Washington... I mean COME ON!!! In a game later in teh season...)49'rs maybe) washington gets the ball 1 time and runs for 47 yards in the 1st or 2nd quarter) never comes near the ball again.
We have a power back, and an EXPLOSIVE back... why not use the 2 back set??? i am FAR from a coach and dont understand all the points of football but the play calling was attrocious. Farve needs not be blamed for everything but I can think of 3 occasions where he threw the ball for a pic that noone was within 10 yards of it and im not talking about BOMBS. Constantly overthrowing and underthrowing balls in the 2nd 1/2 of the season. EVERYONE is to play a part in this collaps except the RB's in my opinion.
The defense gave up and stopped, stoppig the run, That Jenkins even admitted a week or so ago he stopped playing 100% and slacked off a little. The fact that we had to go sigh Ty Law was a joke. 3-4 years from now we will be in sallary cap hell... we lose a draft pick this year... when we need all we can get DESPERATLY. Man"Gina" and his staff all have to go except the special teams coach... he stays. I want a corner and a QB this off season... and if either Brett or Man"Gina" are back next year... don't expect me to watch.
The Dolphins improved much more than the Jets did, and they did it with the quarterback the Jets dumped, the much maligned Chad Pennington.
I thought it was stupid we got rid of chad. Don't get me wrong... I was not sad when we got brett because i have always loved brett... but I always loved chad... he is a qb with a GREAT head on his sholders. The speech Brett gave before the game pissed me off too.
dont give me this crap we want to win but if we dont its ok... wtf
Eric Mangini became grossly overrated after his first season with the team, pure and simple. When he couldn't live up to that in the following years he got shown the door.
Is it just me, or do Patriots assistants seem to do very badly after they leave the Patriots?
