The Jets...

The problem as i see it....and this won't play well in Hempstead, is none other than Joe Willie Namath......take a moment and think about it......for 40 years his enormous shadow has loomed over this team, and for 40 years newcomers to gang green try to emulate his legacy....NO TEAM in the history of any sport has talked as much nonsense without winning anything as this franchise....nobody....Hockey, baseball basketball, nothing comes close.....they have played in as many Superbowls as the Detroit Lions over the past 4 decades....could you imagine if every two or three years since the early 70's some new group of Lion Players were boasting about "Their" year, destiny, the team to beat, guarenteeing victory....it's laughable....and it all comes back to Joe.....everyone wants to be the next Namath, the Fans still were his jersey and parade his drunk ass onto the field on big occasions....it has to stop , but it probably won't until he dies....this organization should have moved to Los Angeles 10 years ao and started fresh, the could have built a legitimate contender by now.....and I hate to bring reality into the conversation, but THIS team? they won't even make the playoffs next year.......sound crazy? look at the facts honestly....they were 4-6 when suddenly the schedule and the breaks went there way....it happens, but rarely two years in a row....first off, next year they will be playing in prime time, on Monday-Sunday or Thursday Night Football, no more sneaking up on teams, every team will take them seriously and circle that game on their schedule.....this year they snuck in as wild card, but realistically if the schedule makers had them play Indy and Cincy in October or November when the games still mattered they probably loose both and miss the playoffs.......secondly , while they were running their mouths in San Diego and indy , the Steelers, Titans, Broncos, Dolphins and Pats were back at the drawing board....examining what went wrong and adressing it....I expect all of these teams to get in the playoffs ahead of the Jets next year....entitlement, the Jets always feel it, but never deserve it.....Rex already has them playing the Colts in the AFC title game at home next year, but History tells us....if we dare pay attention, that most teams that enjoy a tatse of success like the Jets just did, take a step back the following year....the Jets ALWAYS do......remember Herms first year, and Mangenius......Jet Nation was sold on those guys....Their Moses had arrived to take them to the promise land......and now these players want to be paid like Champions and that's always bad.....tough payroll decisions, prima donnas like Braylon Edwards, it all leads to downfall.......just remember it all goes bac to Namath and you heard it here first....the reason the Jints were able to sneak up on the world two years ago was because they did not tell EVERYONE they were coming....
