Okay when were going on sixty or seventy years without a Jet championship. Keep telling yourself that. AGAIN i WILL GLADLY TAKE SIX LOUSY YEARS IN A ROW TO HAVE THE SUCESS RAIDERS HAD EARLY IN THIS DECADE. iT ALL ABOUT PUTTING YOURSELF IN POSITION TO WIN CHAMPIONSHIP. ONE AND DONE IN PLAYOFFS DOSEN'T DO ANYTHING FOR ME. HEY IT WORKS FOR YOU AS YOU JUSDT ACCEPTED 41 YEARS WIITHOUT A CHAMPIONSHIP. Congratulations your a better fan than me.
AGREED. Jets suck. I also agree since I picked Oakland to win it all already. I don't know what the Jets record will be in 2009, but going to the black hole again, I have already pencilled in 1 loss. Tom Cable and his offensive line abilities is unstoppable.
Look down at your keyboard badge, the P and T are clearly too far apart for it to be a typing mistake. Thus, he is too much of a pussy.
Yes but you have been predicting improvement for each upcoming season since 2003 and it hasn't happened. This is why we don't take your opinion seriously, every move Davis makes to you is a good one. Right now you believe Russell and his 77.1 QB rating indicate he is a franchise player, and you use the QB situation as your only argument against Jets. You believe your WR corps of Higgens, Schillens, and Watkins is "young and exciting" because of their 40 times and height. If your logic is applied league-wide every team in the NFL has a young and exciting WR corps because of the speed and height of the receivers. The aforementioned 3 guys have done nothing to warrant any respect from any fanbase but because they are in the Raider system they must be good right? You can throw the 40+ yrs of futility in our faces all you want, we realize our franchise has underachieved, but you never eat crow. You refuse to admit the Raiders have been worst team in football since 03 (as per the stats; less wins than Detroit since) but the fact of the matter is that Jets futility does not cover Raider ineptitude. I look forward to more sunken pirate ships in the near future, and maybe soon you'll finally admit crazy Al's decision to sign Walker, Hall and Kelly were idiotic moves. But no, you'll just credit him when he cuts them. When they bury Al Davis they should put you in that coffin. Alive. I know that's what you want.
This is one hell of an intense post. I've been waiting for someone to truly rip Jeoux like this since I've been here. Great post.
Can you please give me the formula for equating prior success to current satisfaction? I'm a little fuzzy on the numbers. So, 2 AFC Championship Games + 1 Super Bowl Appearance = 6 Losing Seasons? Or, does it slightly outweigh 6 losing seasons since you're still excited about '09? So, an AFC Championship Game appearance/loss is worth 3 losing seasons? A SB appearance/loss is 5? Is that how it works? You're good through next season? Sorry, bear with me, I'm just trying to get it all sorted. So, let's say you have a Bills fan. His team went to 4 straight Super Bowls, winning none. That ended in 1994. So, technically, his team is guaranteed to be good through 2014? I mean 4 Super Bowl Appearances x 5 years each = 20 Happiness Years. Sorry, have to spell it out. I don't get to do math all day on the McDonalds register like you. Man, I thought there was something special about those Bills teams. Oh, does the quality of the non-playoff team matter? I mean, this is important stuff here. Your Raiders have had straight losing seasons, but those Bills fans have had some 8-8 years and even a couple of playoff seasons. Should their happiness carry over an extra year or two? Do those non-losing seasons delay the end of team satisfaction? And what does a Super Bowl win mean? 10 years? Are we going to have smug Pats fans through 2050? I've gotta tell you, I'm fascinated by the potential for this Jeaux Rule. I just need to know the details. Eagerly awaiting your response...
Whose your qb?haha all we know is that you have a qb that can throw the length of a field but sucks at throwing it accurately. And your defense now? good luck with out rob ryan there champ...all you can say is that niamdi and thomas howard will be the same...the rest....well....don't get your hopes up. And for who has a better shot at winning the superbowl? well until Al Davis dies or sells the franchise, your not winning or making 1 anytime soon. So keep thinking what you wanna think...whatever makes u sleep at night!
You have me. Like they say you are what you eat. Pussy. So If that saying is true. That must make you a dick.
Again I posted Jamarcus Russell numbers first eight games and last eight games. (look them up) They clearly show he was coming on and those numbers were a big reason Tom Cable got the head coaching job. Again if you haven't noticed Raiders cleaned house on defense.(the whole staff is gone) You think that was by accident. That Raider defense is loaded with some serious talent that Ryan failed to utilize properly. It was defintely time for a change. Again How many Super bowls have your Owner or FO ever won or been in. MY owner Al Davis has been involved in getting them to two AFc championship and one superbowl this decade. NOw i ask you which organization has a track record getting to championship game. So i would worry more about your owner deliver the goods(Championship) than my owner. Al Davis is not in the hall of fame without a reason. I must have missed Woody Johnson bust.( and Im not talking Vernon Gholston either)
Here is the formula . Jets are going on 41 years without a championship . Haven't even sniff one in a long time. MY contention is that number reaches fifty they should take away the Jet franchise forever. Put the franchise out of its misery. NOw anyone trying to compare the Jets franchise(laughiung stock for 41 years) to a team rich in tradition. (six lousy/laughable years) are just njot very bright.
I know you have no experience breaking in a franchise QB(you keep passing on them in the draft) Again it just takes time. Do you Know Peyton Manning threw 11 interceptions his first three games. Usually franchise QB don't come into situation Flacco and Matt Ryan came into. (solid Olines and running game) Raiders upgrade their oline and everyone will see just how good Russell is and the Raiders offense.(strong draft for OT this year and everything looking good) We saw it down the stretch already when Mario Henderson took over LT. Now on to WRs, I say what I do is because if you look at Both Schilens and Higgins what they did down the stretch . They proved they have a very bright future. ( Look at AL davis press conference couldn't praise both anymore) Raiders best Young WR(the guy they like the best is Arman Shields- who they IR so he can be 100% healthy in 2009) That not counting a DJ hall who was real impressive in Giant camp last year but lost out on the numbers. Raiders have alot of young exciting Wrs it just takes time to develope. NOw Raiders have one of the best all round Tes Zach Miller. You throw in the running backs Raiders have(Fargas, Mcfadden-rather limited last year since week two with turf toe and M Bush) Raiders couldn't utilize these RBs in the passing game as much as they wanted as this position had the injury bug last year. Again all the horses are there on offense , if they upgrade the oline. Really just need a RT if what Mario Henderson did at LT(dominated) was no fluke. Now another reason why Raiders chances are looking Great. AFc West is down. IF Mcfadden was healthy last year they just might have won the AFc West . Raiders are extremely young on both sides of the ball and sooner or later they are going to start winning and Big.
Lets focus on small things first. How bout more than 5 wins before we start talking division. I know thats hard for you because the 07-08 raiders "doubled" their amount of wins from the year before, and that was all part of Al's plan. Too bad last year they only went up a 25%. So a 1st round drafted OT solves all their problems? Just like McFadden solved all their problems last year, and Russell did the year before, and y player did the year before... Rob Ryan was the problem, Lane Kiffin was an idiot, Art Shell was a moron, Injuries, Zone blocking, 40 times, Russell is ahead of manning at the same stage of development, turf toe, growing pains, playing the wrong schemes for their players, man to man and raiders suck at it, making too many predictions, offensive line, dominant rushing attack, all the experts say this, best young players,showed a lot but he got cut from X team during camp but he got picked up by the raiders and hes now awesome, Al Davis, Godfather of football, Close games last year but ended up 5-11, surprise a lot of people, and my personal favorite all the experts say CHAMPIONSHIP CALIBER (of course spelled wrong)..... Any more excuses from you and untrue phrases about the raiders that you said or did I hit them all.
I am on your side man. I was calling you a pussy. Thats better than being dumb and not being able to spell. I was defending you!
You are the definition of Raider myopia. Peyton Manning threw over 3700 yards and 26 TDs in his rookie season. Russell has yet to throw for 3000 in his career, please refrain from ever comparing the two. What exactly did Schillens and Higgins do down the stretch? In the last 9 games they had 7 catches and 15 catches respectively. Very dangerous. Shields is yet to catch a f*ckin' pass in the NFL, and is the equivalent of Marcus Henry as for as you are concerned. If you want to base the young and exciting label on TC performances then you must have high expectations for David Clowney? Saying your QBs development depends on oline upgrades is a cop-out. We could say the exact same about Kellen Clemens. Look what Kerry Collins did this year with time in the f'n pocket. Yeah, your division sucks, largely due to the fact the Raiders are a part of it. Last place 2009, 6-10.
Here is why You have tobe excited on offense. 23 year Old franchise Qb -Jamarcus Russell RB- 21 Years old D Mcfadden and 24 M Bush TE - 23 Zach Miller and 22 Darrell Strong FB- 25 Oren Oneal , 28 Justin Griffith and 23 marcel Reese. WR Chaz schilens 23 , Johnnie Lee Higgins-25, A Shields 23, and 23 Dj Hall Oline LT Mario Henderson 23 LG R Gallery 28 C J Grove- UFA???? 29 (could be draft choice) RG Kwame harris 26 RT- Could be number 1 pick 22- 23 Reserves 24 James Marten - third rounder cowboys tried to sneak past on waivers (Raiders said thankyou) 25 Paul Mcquistan 25 C Morris 25 Now are all these guys going to m ake it. OF couse not but the future sure dpoes look bright.
