Yeah, the team is super talented. If they stay healthy, they should be playing in late January for sure.

The stat where every team that played SF last year lost the following week is an insane one.
SF beats the shit out of teams.
Sometimes I watch him and think he's got a decent arm and the ability to make real things happen with his legs. He looks excellent for a super raw rookie. Then I wake up and remember he's in year 3, and minus a quick slant that Garrett Wilson took to the house, he's 6-13 for 48 yards today.
I know. It was thrown to the almost exact location as OBJ's one-handed grab in 2014.
It’s truly tragic (from just a pure football fan perspective) that we didn’t get to see what Aaron Rodgers could do with that group. Jets have some good weapons on offense and the defense is legit.
Jets offense has been on the field for 13 minutes out of 48. The defense is objectively amazing.
But they are also human.
All of these long field goal attempts will just make it sting worse when Bill punts on 4th and 7 from the opposing 38.
@luckiestman called it when he pointed out that the Jets’ TD was a quick strike that meant the D got no rest.
Of course. I’m also amused by trying to figure out a past tense for the Jets defense being historically great, as per @snowmanny ’s
post. Historically greated?
Eh, the only thing they've been good at today is keeping Dallas from scoring TDs every single time. They aren't getting any help from the offense, but they've forced 2 punts on 8 drives. 70 plays for Dallas, 0 turnovers. Dallas is 9-15 on 3rd down. The best thing I can say about the Jets' D today is that they aren't the reason Dallas will win.
Hadn't heard that one. Lynch and Shanahan must must be tasting the Super Bowl champagne, but you never know what will happen.
Parsons was a wrestler who does boxing for conditioning? I’m always surprised more of these guys don’t crack the code like that; like LeBron and Kareem with yoga and pilates. But maybe if you’re already pro, who cares? I dunno.
If the Jets had Davis Mills they'd win 11 games. Wilson is a level below the average backup in this league.
They have been on the field for the entire game. They haven't had any rest except for half time. It gets tough when you know the offense can't do anything.
Parsons seems like a total physical freak. Like yeah, maybe a few more guys could do that but not on the same level as he does.
I didn’t want the Giants to come back. But if they lose in heartbreaking fashion that’s cool too.
Oh fersure. But if you want to build wind, stamina, nothing beats three minute sparring rounds. Nothing. And his ability to consistently explode, emphasis on consistently…
But yeah, I agree: Shit’s hard, so maybe there’s some correlation bias there, i.e. he’s someone who can actually pull all that off and not, like, die?
Yeah I don't blame them, but let's not pretend like they've been "amazing" today. They've been good enough for the game to be close if the offense was competent. This isn't the day to send praise their way.
Denver is going to lose this game, at home, in a game they were up 18. To Sam Howell.
That is piss poor.
That is piss poor.
Lots of good, competent QB play in this league. Even from the rookies or the first year starters.
We’re going to have to specify R Wilson or Z Wilson for QBs stinking up the joint this afternoon.
