    I have lived long enough to see the Arizona Cardinals reach a Super Bowl and I'll never see a Jets Super Bowl. It's just embarrassing seeing Arizona win a conf title at HOME in front of fans who always used to dress up as empty seats while for decades we have filled our building up every week w/ nothing to show for it. BILL BIDWELL was holding the George Halas trophy! I'm sick.

    If we held on to Chad and Herm we could have been eliminated a week before the Lamar Hunt Trophy was awarded instead of two weeks before it was awarded. I'm depressed also. The one positive with our team we usually win the off season which is just a couple of weeks away.

    The good news Junc... is that there is going to be change... again... You never really know what to expect from a new head coach... and for all we know Ryan will flop like Herm and Mangini did... however, from watching Baltimore's defense last night I get the impression that we're not going to get the same old conservative nonsense we've gotten so used to. I hope anyway, that Ryan brings the same kind of aggressive mentality to the Jets that he coached up in the Ravens D. If he does, this team might be that much closer to being where Arizona is now.

    Well, I have seen the Jets win a SB..:) Aside from that there are still 5 other teams that have never been to the SB so the Jets aren't as bad off as you may think.

    I said the same thing to my buddies last night junc. It is unbelieveable that the Cards are going to the superbowl. The Arizona fucking Cardinals. We just suck

    Not only that but their fans got to see it in person, it wasn't an upset on the road. obviously they needed alot of help but they still played the game at home in front of their fans. Imagine how incredible that would be to play an AFC Title game at home and win it? I hope my Grandkids are alive to enjoy it.

    He has 10s of millions of dollars to cushion the blow. I pay to watch the Jets never make the Super Bowl.

    They've got heart. I watched the special that was on before the Pre-Game show. "Chase for the Championship" or whatever it was, and all any Arizona player could say was that nobody believed in them. They wanted it most, they wanted to shut everybody's mouth. Add that with a 61 year stretch, and you have yourself a winning season.

    I've all but given up on my hopes of seeing this team win anything other than an early start on golfing.

    Turning your kids and grandkids into Jets fans - the Department of Youth Services is on the way. The cycle of abuse must end.

    I guess at this age, I'm a Half Full guy now...

    What I see from Arizona is proof positive not to go all crazy all year after every game and every play and know that with Parity in the NFL even the Cardinals can win it...

    Stay healthy, build as the year goes and anyone has a shot...

    THIS Jets team has talent - as much or more than Arizona IMO - The JEts best is better than Arizona's IMO..... Jets smacked Zona all over the field.

    Consistent drafting as well - which IMO the Jets have been doing, Gholston or not.

    I'd be more depressed if the Super Bowl was Titans - Cardinals.

    Well then cheer up because the Cards have proven that a seemingly never ending cycle of disappointments, failures and heartbreak can be broken.

    Well having seen 1 I am not quite in the same position U R but what is far more disgraceful if you ask me is that Steelers will be appearing in the 7th with 5 wins so far & during that same period we have zippo, nada, none.

    Also I would say that the Cards have been in Arizona for maybe 20/25 years so there fans have not "sufferered" any where as long as we have.

    Just think now the Bungles have been in 2 & the Cards in 1 & beyond SB3 we are at zero
