Big Blue Huddle

Wow! What a coincidence!!!

But tomorrow... not today.  LOL

In the long run, it was a TEAM loss, so his blunder wasn't the only boo-boo in a game full of incompetence.

It's important to note this was a breakout game for a player who started the season lacking effort and a reputation for being a narcissistic hot dog. He was all business yesterday. Let's hope he doesn't need a week of fan admonishment to motivate himself going forward. The game wasn't on him. It was on Schoen and Daboll and Kafka. How the xxxx can they go into a game with a gimpy kicker and a QB they have not prepared and had no confidence in?

Jaime, he's made some bad decisions this season for sure. Sometimes it's a flip of the coin as to what the right decision is. I think we have to stop the two year HC firings unless the Coach loses the team. He hasn't. Although he's no spring chicken, with some support, he will learn hopefully and work through this.

As for Schoen, he has this team cap strapped where they couldn't even bring in an experienced backup to Taylor and his injury history and... he let Gano go into that game with a bad knee when he clearly needs to be put on IR. He let Phillips walk when he was clearly the best backup Tackle, although that's a partnership decision.

As for the Receivers, none of them were open when TT was still in the game. As Ceri said.

I also think he supported Jones because the owner fell in love and that two year out reeked of placeholder.

The team is still building. He needs another year.

Quote from: Bob In PA on October 30, 2023, 07:56:43 AMEd: No I won't. You know I defended Number 5 as "hard" as anyone here last week, but he personally lost the game.

In the NFL, one bad play can wipe out an entire day's worth of outstanding effort, and that's exactly what happened.

His off-sides penalty to start the final drive of regulation stopped the clock and gave Jets the ONE TIMEOUT they needed to travel far enough to tie the game. Inexcusable. It's as bad as being off-side on a game-winning field goal attempt which is missed, giving the opponent a second chance to make it from five yards nearer.

Look at my time stamp Bob. Before the off sides. Although there was a couple of Jets players who were off the hook after that.

Gotta give credit to Zach Wilson who came up big to win the game.

Sometimes the other team just makes plays.

This game has made me reflect on just how many words have multiple definitions. I was looking for parts or pertaining to a bow or violin, and different types of alarms.

On the second miss, I agreed he needed to attempt the kick there late in the game. They weren't going to score a TD.

Quote from: Echunks on October 29, 2023, 10:11:04 PMAs long as the center doesn't have his hand on the ball when the ref touches it, yes I believe so.

Tough to catch a snapshot on the phone but the Center did appear to have his hand on the ball.

Quote from: Jclayton92 on October 29, 2023, 09:18:57 PMI'd rather they sign a Bryce Perkins who is young, can run, and pass but also actually showed flashes in Ls Angeles as opposed to a Matt Barkley just bc he may remember some of the packages.

Colt McCoy or Foles.

Quote from: nicky1000 on October 29, 2023, 09:05:33 PMDaboll coached scared at the end and did not think through some decisions through a clear lens. Bad Year 2? No doubt. But you have to allow some continuity to develop and let him take his lumps. He may need a new OC but he has the potential to be a good coach.

I agree.

Daboll made a lot of questionable decisions. He's going to be roasted this week for it.

Sorry Dan, my anger is carrying over.

They must sign another QB this week. Taylor won't likely play and Jones may not hold up if he does come back. It has to be someone with experience who can step in and play. There are a few options available. And don't be concerned about any QB controversy. They need Cap room so they have to trade by tomorrow. Can they be relieved of the 2024 restructure for Adoree if they trade him? Do they want to restructure Leo? They are in a tough situation, Dan.

On a side note, this game shouldn't have even been this close. The Jets shots themselves in the foot multiple times starting from that first turnover which resulted in a FG and those killer penalties that kept the Giants in the game. The Jets are a good team that played badly.

I didn't say you did. I read the room too.
