Buffalo sure does suck.
Jets win a nail bited, Favre sucks cock yet again though so it's hardly an impressive win. Still, with three teams at 9-5, it's going to be a damn good finish to the season. Keep in mind, the Jets and Dolphins play eachother in week 17.. what a barnburner that one will be.. |

Go 'phins
Obstacles don't have to stop you. If you run into a wall, don't turn around and give up. Figure out how to climb it, go through it, or work around it.

Jets got fucking lucky. Losman handed the game over to them on a silver platter.
I cringed when i saw Favre jumping up and down like a little kid acting like he won the game for them. I despise that guy. |

I have always liked Farve, so he had an emotional fart.....could be worse, look at the rest of the NFL, the Bengals entire team, Plax...PAcman. Those are players that should be treated like villians. |

Favre is just as bad.
He's an egotistcal tool who cannot live without being in the spotlight or having celebratory status.
Fag, stop crying, you liar. |

I would imagine that would really bother a Green bay fan and that would give the fans who hated him fuel but still, he's only human.
What's the worst he's done in his career really....drugs? Everyone's done it one time or another. Did he sound like a whiner....yes. |

Eric Mangini, Jets fall to Seahawks and lose control of playoff destiny
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Sunday, December 21st 2008, 6:57 PM SEATTLE — If this is Brett Favre’s kind of weather, then the magic is gone for the veteran quarterback. And so likely are the Jets’ playoff chances. Seattle’s Maurice Morris sliced through the snow like a sled for a season-high 116 yards and John Carlson scored the only touchdown on a short pass from backup Seneca Wallace as the lowly Seahawks ended New York’s stay atop the AFC East with a 13-3 upset Sunday. Mike Holmgren, Favre’s confidant and former coach in Green Bay, went out a winner in his final home game as the leader in Seattle — largely because Favre came up short when the Jets (9-6) needed him most. New York must now beat AFC East co-leading Miami at home next week, and pray. Either New England or Baltimore, also 10-5, must lose for the Jets to get in the playoffs. The Patriots are at Buffalo next week and the Ravens, aiming for the conference’s last wild-card spot, host Jacksonville (5-10). Holmgren, who’s taking a sabbatical from football in 2009, took a victory lap around the edge of the field immediately after the second win in eight games for Seattle (4-11) as sentimental music blared over the public-address system. He and Favre also embraced on the field and spoke briefly after the game. Holmgren had planned to perhaps shake some hands with the fans who have cheered him while transforming the Seahawks in his 10 years, but snow cleared from the field before the game was piled up the railing of seats and prevented him from getting closer. New York piled up missed chances, as Seattle scored its fewest points in a home win since Nov. 27, 1994, a 10-9 win over Kansas City in the Kingdome. The Jets gave away seven potential points on two decisions by coach Eric Mangini. Their lone score came on a 20-yard field goal by Jay Feely to end the opening drive, after Mangini decided against going for it on fourth down with a half-yard to go at the 2 against the league’s 30th-ranked defense. The Jets stalled at the Seahawks 27 early in the fourth quarter. They were then penalized for delay of game just before Feely made a 45-yard field goal that was good by more than 5 yards. But after the 5-yard penalty, Mangini chose to punt. Feely angrily protested to his coach as he stomped off the snowy field. New York was down 10-3 and started at its own 12 with 3:06 left, but Darryl Tapp sacked Favre on first down. On fourth-and-2, Favre heaved perhaps his longest and best pass of his skittish day. The ball reached Laveranues Coles in stride at the Seahawks 40, but bounced off his chest and that of defensive back Kelly Jennings before falling to the turf. Favre, who finished 18-of-31 for 187 yards and two interceptions, just trudged off the field emotionless as snowballs thrown by the jubilant fans smacked into the turf near his feet. Olindo Mare then kicked the clinching field goal. For all of Favre’s renown as a wizard in the quarterback in the cold and snow, he’s actually more accurately just a whiz in the cold and snow of Green Bay. Favre is now 1-6 in road games played in temperatures of 34 degrees or below — Sunday it was 31 degrees. He was 43-6 in such conditions in home game with the Packers. Favre continually underthrew receivers who were running free downfield, such as Coles near the Seahawks 30 midway through the fourth quarter and David Clowney when he was 3 yards behind Josh Wilson at the Seahawks 40 to begin the second half to force another punt. That brought to mind questions last week that the 39-year-old, three-time MVP’s passing shoulder is finally betraying him. New York looked as bad as a division leader not in the NFC West can look throughout a first half spent sputtering through the snow, which increasingly covered the field and concealed the yard lines. Favre started 8-for-9 passing but finished the first half 2-for-7 with an interception thrown like a shot put across his body into Wilson’s arms. Seattle took a 7-3 lead into the locker room by converting prime field position late in the half following a 35-yard punt by Reggie Hodges. Seattle’s 40-yard drive ended with Carlson’s leaping catch of a 2-yard touchdown pass from Wallace in the back of the end zone. Carlson made the catch with snowflakes and linebacker David Harris’ hands in his face, and a snowball party broke out among fans in the end zone. |

Fan-tastic. Now, all they have to do is beat the dolphins next week and the Pats need to beat the Bills.
If sense were common, everyone would have it.

Brett Favre, Jets complete collapse as Eric Mangini awaits fate
BY RICH CIMINI DAILY NEWS SPORTS WRITER Sunday, December 28th 2008, 7:39 PM Woody Johnson had just witnessed the final insult in an unfathomable collapse that began four weeks ago, and he was clearly disgusted. In a brief interview outside the Jets' locker room Sunday night after a season-ending, 24-17 loss to the Dolphins at the Meadowlands, the owner ripped his team of underachievers and put Eric Mangini on notice. "It's extremely frustrating. I'm disappointed in the season," said Johnson, who rarely shows any public anger. "We have a lot of talent. I'm unhappy with what turned out. I hate to disappoint the fans. I feel badly for them. They deserved more and we wanted to give it to them." For a mild-mannered owner like Johnson, that amounted to flinging a chair through a pane of glass. It may not bode well for Mangini, whose status was discussed last week in high-level organizational meetings. Johnson was mum on his onetime Boy Wonder, declining to give him a vote of confidence after the Jets' fourth loss in five games, the worst meltdown in the team's star-crossed history. Asked if Mangini will return next season, Johnson said, "We're going to look at that. I'm going to get my guys together and we'll look at everything. . . . We're going to make these decisions in a rational way." Johnson said he hopes to make a decision this week. It could take weeks, maybe months to figure out how out the Jets went from an 8-3 Super Bowl contender to a 9-7 also-ran, officially eliminated at 7:04 p.m., when the Ravens beat the Jaguars to secure the final wild-card spot. Johnson doled out nearly $160 million for veteran acquisitions, including future Hall of Famer Brett Favre, and it ended with a Nightmare on L Street. The only thing missing were cameo appearances by A.J. Duhe and Dan Marino, Dolphin villains from their haunted past. Of all the Jets' bloody endings - it's now 40 straight years without a Super Bowl - this may have been the worst. They lost to their old quarterback, Chad Pennington, who outplayed their new old quarterback, who threw three interceptions, admitted he was plagued by shoulder pain through the season and sounded like he was ready to head back to his farm in Mississippi. "I'm sure everybody's going to say he's old and washed up. Maybe they're right," said Favre, 39, who will have an MRI exam today on his throwing shoulder and is leaning toward retirement (again), according to several people close to him. The Jets lost to a team they had beaten five straight times, a team that was 1-15 a year ago. Now the Dolphins are the AFC East champions, an amazing turnaround, and the Jets could be on the verge of a housecleaning. A subdued, emotionless Mangini, 23-25 in three seasons (0-1 in the playoffs), said he hasn't discussed his future with ownership, but he expects to return. "That's my anticipation," he said. His contract, with only one year remaining, will have to be addressed even if he stays. As it turned out, the Jets would've missed the playoffs even if they had won. They needed a Patriots loss to the Bills or a Ravens loss, and neither happened. The day was a total loss. So was the season. "I'm trying to wrap my mind around this whole thing, just the collapse we had," tackle Damien Woody said. "One minute, we're 8-3. Next minute, we're done, season over. It's hard to fathom right now. Shoot, you could look at it like we lost five games. The Buffalo game was a gift." Linebacker Calvin Pace was livid. "It's embarrassing, to be honest with you," he said. "We don't really have anyone to blame but ourselves. Everybody in this room should take a look in the mirror and see why we'll be sitting at home." Guard Brandon Moore scoffed at the suggestion that the team nosedived because it bought into the hype of its five-game winning streak. "That's the easy way out," he sniffed. "That's like trying to blame coaches for losing. If you can't handle winning, you're never going to win anything." The Jets' decline coincided with Favre's late-season slump, a five-game stretch in which he threw for nine interceptions and only two touchdowns. Favre (20-for-40, 233 yards) showed some spunk yesterday, but he killed the team with his second interception, returned 25 yards for a touchdown by defensive end Phillip Merling. His third interception came on a potential game-tying touchdown in the fourth quarter. How's that quarterback switch looking now? Pennington, fired by the Jets after the Favre trade, made his old team look silly. Showing that it doesn't take a big arm or a Hall of Fame resume to win a division title, he passed for 200 yards and two touchdowns, dissecting a sometimes-confused Jets defense. What else is new? The Jets blew 6-0 and 17-14 leads, coming apart like a jigsaw puzzle in a windstorm. "The hardest part is the finality of it, especially when you expect to go on," Favre said somberly. Mangini addressed the team after the game, but he didn't mention his future. Asked to summarize Mangini's message, guard Alan Faneca said, "Basically, this feeling sucks, but we'll regroup." But maybe with a different coach and a different quarterback. |

A good team would have beaten the Dolphins, Chad looked like he had more arm strength than Farve. |

Interesting.
I always thought the Belichick thing was strange too. I really wonder what the riff was about initially to fuel such an intense hatred for one another. Not even being able to shake hands? |

Precise quote.
I never thought much of the Jets the last couple years. Teams play like their coaches IMO. The Jets were defensive, paranoid, inconsistent etc. in his tenure and I certainly see why he's now gone. Cowher would be a good hire for them. Another guy I can't stand. |

Mike Shanahan is out of the running as New York Jets coach
Mike Shanahan is the second veteran coach to take himself out of the running for the Jets' vacant head coaching job, according to someone with knowledge of the team's coaching search. That person requested anonymity because he's not authorized to speak publicly. Three days after Bill Cowher bowed out, the former Denver Broncos coach sent word to the Jets that he's not interested. The team had held discussions regarding Shanahan and planned to bring him in for an interview if he were interested. |

"Being apart was tough on the family," he admits. "I'll never ever do that again. I hope I can be at Boston College for a long, long time. I have no desire to go elsewhere. Boston College is a great opportunity for me and my family. We plan on making to most of it."
