    Wow. Great post. That's the most direct, clearly written overview I've seen on ESPNs "fugazi ratings"

    Obviously he would. Because he just gave you all the reasons the ratings suck and not one of them was where the Jets were rated

    Yes. It would be even worse if they somehow rated us 12 because we are a bad team.

    Until we get a superstar QB. RB, Or WR we will always be predicted at the bottom of the league...this is 90 percent of what goes into national media predictions...Vegas has us at 6.5 which is about right.

    There ya go. That's what I like to look at too. I think it's up a game from last year.

    When someone predicts 0-16 or says they're the worst team like this I always wish I could bet them on their number.

    Last year was 3.5 I believe and everyone said we would be 0-16 with the worst roster in the history of football...this year it's 6.5 and ESPN and other media outlets still have us as the worst team in the league....and I thought last years predictions were off.

    So espn ,who just called the jets the worst team in the league,has Cleveland with the lowest projected win total.
     
  11. No doubt hes very smart but when it comes to the Pats they can do no wrong esp Bellichick.Course its kind of similar ina way to Casserly always kissing Mac’s ass.

    Casserly is the only guy in the national media who seems to have any sort of clue what the Jets have been trying to do the past 2 years. Those Patriot guys are just shills..Mangini is the worst because Belichick still hates him no matter how much he kisses his ass.

    Well, if you think Miami and Buffalo are worse than Baltimore and Cincinnati those two things don't actually contradict each other, and ESPN does, ranking them 30th and 27th, respectively, versus 15th and 25th, respectively.
