He's now subjected to the scutiny of the NY media, and they are definitely starting to do a little mumbling. He might be playing injured...

Fans seem to be doing a little grumbling...

Brett's been struggling, funny though if you go to the poll on the right side of the article, 51% are saying the play calling stinks, that is the root cause for the losses.
Brett showed off the long ball in overtime, if it wasn't for the wide receiver slipping and falling down it would have been another "Monday night at Denver ending."
Those things happen, hopefully Brett isn't hurt, just a sub-par day last Sunday.

I watched that game on NFL Replay last night.. it was an awful offensive game for the Jets.. honestly.. one can't hang that solely on Brett..

Regardless of all the off field talk.. the man can still play QB. No doubt.

Not that I could tell.. he looked like the same guy throwing off balance and slinging it around.

One thing that I did notice.. he looked tired..

Here in Pennsylvania they put a smoking ban in place just prior to the start of the season. Anybody remember Earl Weaver, the Orioles manager? He had a relief pitcher he nicknamed "two pack"... Two Pack Stanhouse, to be exact, because every time Earl sent him out to pitch, Earl would consume two packs of cigarettes waiting for him to get the job done. Same with me and Brett... I always loved the "Good Brett", but being a fatalist, would worry about the re-emergence of "Bad Brett". Those were usually one pack games. Whenever I got "Bad Brett", I would hope for the re-emergence of "Good Brett". Those were two pack games. Now, I don't want to argue or discuss Aaron Rodgers vs. BF, but I will say that the switch was timely in that I'm down to less than half a pack per game for the first time in memory. I wonder if anyone is doing a study up in NY regarding cigarette consumption during Jet games.

The Jets need to continue wearing those ugly throwback uniforms.
Everytime they do Brett has a pretty good day and the Jets win.

What are the odds they wear them again this week at home?

Playing KC a good chance to get healthy and back on the winning track.

This is kind of what I meant by the MVP talk. Let's wait and see. I don't think the Jets are 3-3 if Favre isn't their QB. I think they maybe win one game and that's against the Bengals. I think Jet fans probably should relax and let things play out. I still think if they get to 8 or 9 wins this year, that's a good season for a team that was 4-12 the year before.

I read somewhere that you're only allowed to wear them twice in a season, which sucks because they're obviously good luck. Defenders take one look at the jersey and they fall down laughing and the WR is wide open.

Now we are talking about Brett Favre here!!! The man who will sell a million of those if he wears it enough(got me, bought mine a month ago!!!!)
Maybe Brett should call someone......................................................








NO DON'T DO IT BRETT!!!!!! :icon_smile: :icon_smile: :icon_smile:

.The New York Media cann be tough, but Brett is a pretty straight shooter when it comes to being interviewed, I think they will give him a little more time than most to see what happens.

4-12 to 9-7 would not be a bad 1 year improvement.
Raider game hurt, now The Jets need to win one that they are not suppose to to make up for it.

10-6 still possible!!!!!

beast (8h) : Thanks dfosterf, I'm still kicking myself for last week, as I forgot to change to pick Vikings and Lions... after putting in a holding spot.
Zero2Cool (10h) : First alternate: Elgton Jenkins Other alternates: Jordan Love, Kenny Clark, Keisean Nixon, Tucker Kraft, Josh Myers, Jaire Alexander
Zero2Cool (10h) : Pro Bowl still a thing? Guess Packers have three. Jacobs, Gary, McKinney.
dfosterf (10h) : It's a mine field with all the players sitting, etc
dfosterf (10h) : There was quite a bit of "chalk" matchups this year it seemed, but not this week coming up
Zero2Cool (10h) : Or we got better and by we I mean everyone except me
Zero2Cool (10h) : We have about six that by percent would have won nearly any season. I guess 2024 was predictable 🤷
Zero2Cool (10h) : You can check previous seasons. I quick did it and don't think anyone hit 70% before
dfosterf (10h) : Hats off to the Beast
dfosterf (10h) : I'm at 71.76% in pick 'em. 2nd place. Beast is at a flat 75% 9 games ahead. That 75% has got to be unprecedented this late in the season
beast (11h) : I don't care deeply, just want some good entertaining games
Zero2Cool (11h) : BTW, not serious.
Zero2Cool (11h) : You don't care about it either!!!!
Zero2Cool (11h) : NIL and Portal killed college, no one cares about it.
Mucky Tundra (16h) : outside of Texas-Arizona St, it's been a snoozefest
beast (20h) : I expect Georgia will change that tomorrow, but we'll have to wait and see. If they do, then only Big 10 and SEC are left.
beast (20h) : So much for Conference Championship meaning something as 100% (so far) of the conference Champions lost their first playoff game.
Zero2Cool (1-Jan) : Jaire had surgery, season over.
Mucky Tundra (1-Jan) : I guess I need a new sig Pic. Boo
Mucky Tundra (1-Jan) : Eric Dickerson approves of this decision
beast (1-Jan) : Eagles are resting RB Saquon Barkley, so there is no chance he breaks the record despite being just 101 yards from it
Zero2Cool (1-Jan) : Patriots are waiving veteran pass rusher Yannick Ngakoue
beast (1-Jan) : Happy New Year's 🥳🎉
beast (31-Dec) : I want to them chant some songs for Daniel Whelan
beast (31-Dec) : Let's win one! Also, hopefully the Irish will stand with Daniel Whelan
Mucky Tundra (31-Dec) : After London and Brazil, I could go without an overseas game for a while
Zero2Cool (31-Dec) : Packers. Steelers. Ireland. 2025. Reports say.
Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : Matt Lafleur on if Jaire will play again this season. "Yeah I don't know... he's been dealing with swelling."
Mucky Tundra (30-Dec) : After the way they played for most of the game yesterday, I don't see how you can sit anyone for the whole game
Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : I'd say play everyone. Going into playoffs at 7th seed on two game lose streak - yucky
Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : Do the Packers have any best players?
beast (30-Dec) : Play or Rest*
beast (30-Dec) : Should the Packers play or free their best players vs the Bears?
Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : Packers should be 3 - 2 in the Division. Bonkers being swept by both Lions and Vikings. yikes
go.pack.go. (30-Dec) : All crazy stuff…and good point beast
beast (30-Dec) : Packers should be 0-5 in the division, can't say I saw that coming, even 1-4
Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : Sam Darnold 35 TD's ... another one
Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : Baker Mayfield, 39 TD's ... can't say I saw that one
Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : No matter who is playing as 7th, I think we want them to win. Get rid of 2nd seed haha
go.pack.go. (30-Dec) : That would be dhazer who was rooting for Minnesota
beast (30-Dec) : Well, Commanders are currently the 6th seed and Packers the 7th
beast (30-Dec) : Who was it in Chat, that wanted the Vikings to win (because Lions fans upset them) because Packers could not lose the 6th seed?
beast (30-Dec) : If Falcons win, Packers stay as the 6th seed and Falcons lead the NFCS, if they lose, Commanders 6th and Bucs take NFCS lead
beast (30-Dec) : Win or Loss, the NFCS is going down to week 18
Mucky Tundra (30-Dec) : if the Falcons win, how does that affect the overall NFC playoff picture? Does it mean that the NFC South comes down to week 18?
beast (30-Dec) : If Commanders win, the Packers drop to the 7th seed
beast (29-Dec) : Taylor still at it!
beast (29-Dec) : Colts get the ball and fumble turn over
packerfanoutwest (29-Dec) : Jets pull Aaron Rodgers for Tyrod Taylor
Mucky Tundra (29-Dec) : Colts-Giants now a tight one
