parrot 789 Posted September 18, 2009 which one? sorry if I missed it. All I saw was a bunch of people saying that the Jets needed to shut their mouths because the Patriots eat up bulletin board material. And that somehow the Patriots were going to be extra fired up even though its already a well heated division rivalry. I didn't notice any of the Pats fans suggesting why Rex Ryan would make such comments. Maybe you noticed that Va Terp's first line was "I agree with this", "this" being my suggestion that the Jets are mostly trying to convince themselves that they should have nothing but confidence against the Pats.

Thornton Melon 620 Posted September 18, 2009 This coming from the Patriots who listed Tom Brady as questionable with a shoulder injury every game for what...5 years? What happened the first week they took him off???? Oh that's right, he tore up his knee I'm sure the Patriots reeeaaallllyyy take those injury reports seriously Questionable? Really? Try again, kid...... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kmbryant09 1 Posted September 18, 2009 Questionable? Really? Try again, kid...... Probable??? Ive always heard it was questionable, so maybe I just got the info from the wrong source...but regardless, it seems kind of ironic for a Pats fan to claim that a team mis-reporting injuries is cheating.

You do have to admit that Belichick comes from the same school as Parcells in that he does not offer up much info about injuries and such.

TD Ryan2 316 Posted September 18, 2009 1. Even though it's been lopsided, the Pats/Jets rivalry is very entertaining. They are always tough fought games... very physical and at times (Belichick, Parcells, Mangini, Ryan, Curtis Martin, Ty Law) very personal. 2. The Facts About Belichick and The Injury report. I've posted this before, but some of you should read it again so you can have some understanding of what's gone on. The nonesense with NE's injury report goes back years now ('03?) to a NE vs. ATL game.Michael Vick was listed as Questionable for that game then upgraded to Probable. Vick never even dressed for the game. Belichick was outraged at the manipulation of the injury report. The defense of ATL's report was the Vick participated "X" amount in practice and was therefore upgraded. NE had to prepare for both the running style offense that Vick uses AND the pocket passing style offense that Schaub uses. Belichick was angry about the report being manipulated to "purposely create extra work and preparation time" for NE... the Pats had to prepare 2 defenses: the spy version for Vick, the pressure version for Schaub. A player's status on the injury report is supposed to be determined by their availability for practice during the week (something along the lines of: miss a little practice time = probable, miss a full day of practice = questionable, miss multiple practices = doubtful). Brady frequently takes days off from throwing to rest his arm. Belichick, to the letter of the requirements for the injury report, will then list him as "probable" as the player has "technically" missed practice time.

It doesn't change my point that it was a laughing joke that he was even on the injury report to begin with. It also shows that you'd rather nit-pick the severity of the laughing matter, rather than recognizing that Nomad was trying to belittle the Jets for not listing their injuries correctly, and I merely pointed out that it's a little ironic hearing that from a Pats homer.

kmbryant09 1 Posted September 18, 2009 TDRyan2 - That is an interesting perspective on the injury reports...but I would definitely need to see something by the NFL before I'd believe that there's specific guidelines and qualifications that relate to practice time and players' game-status. And even if you nailed it, meaning those are the guidelines, because Brady would take some time off from throwing the ball (which i've also never heard of), he didn't "miss practice", and certainly not because of an injury. Hence INJURY reports. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TD Ryan2 316 Posted September 18, 2009 at Nomad was trying to belittle the Jets for not listing their injuries correctly, the "nitpicks" and "facts" are apparently the same thing here. NE has been listing their injury report correctly with Brady for years... he misses or takes a break from practice/throwing time, he's supposed to be on the injury report. Stupid? sure. But that's Belichick's point here... the whole system for the injury report is stupid. AS for Favre and the Jets? he was injured and was never listed... he was missing practice time and never listed. That is against the rules of the injury report and the NFL. It's not a big deal to me... I really don't care much about it... but suggesting the what NE did was the same as what NYJ did is completely false. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mambokings 0 Posted September 18, 2009 Ryan has brought this attitude to the Jets and I think it's refreshing. Wise? Probably not, but who cared about the Jets before this year? At least with bulletin board material like this he's got his team on the map again...yeah, maybe to get embarrassed, but what the hell - it's a game. And the NFL is entertainment at its core.

TD Ryan2 316 Posted September 18, 2009 That is an interesting perspective on the injury reports...but I would definitely need to see something by the NFL before I'd believe that there's specific guidelines and qualifications that relate to practice time and players' game-status. not the NFL rulebook, but this is from the USA Today a while back: Link to Injury Report Article In 2004, the NFL's competition committee began requiring teams to file reports on their practice sessions. Teams are required to list who did not participate, fully participate or had limited participation in practice. Teams playing Sunday games must submit practice reports every Wednesday, Thursday and Friday. The injury list must be submitted Friday and updated as needed Saturday. USA TODAY based its analysis on the Friday report. Also, from the article... the idea that the Injury Report is used strategically all the time... the "system" of reporting just doesn't work and should be changed: The NFL is investigating a recent situation regarding the Houston Texans and how they listed running back Ahman Green, Aiello says. During the week before their Oct. 28 game against the San Diego Chargers, Green — who had aggravated a knee injury the previous game — was listed as a limited participant in practice Wednesday and Thursday, a full participant Friday and then listed as "probable" for the game. Green wound up not playing. The discrepancy theoretically could have given the Texans an advantage over the Chargers, who, based on the injury reports, had to prepare for the game as if Green would play.

Just a few that come to mind: -After Mangini left, the Jets beat the Pats, BB blows off Mangini's handshake after the game...then later in the year the pats beat the jets, and BB is all best friends with Mangini all of a sudden -After a tough defeat to the Colts (I forget which one), BB basically blows off Tony Dungy's handshake -Spygate - I really don't know the extent of it, and Pats homers will argue he was simply testing the boundaries of rules to gain a competitive advantage. -Brady on the injury report is another example, as is the general lack of injury information on that team (ie Wes Welker the past week or two) -Running up scores in 07 - I know there are no rules for this, and power to the Patriots for being able to do so, but there's a reason other teams don't do it... I'm not saying any of these amounts to much individually, nor are any of them the difference between the Pats being a great team and being a crappy team.

Bellicheck VS Mangini was a big, albeit boring rivalry. And the Jets are a team that has made it to the playoffs a decen amount of times this decade. In a way, Ryan reminds me alot of Herm Edwards in that he isn't afraid to speak his mind. But I think Ryan does it in a more educated sounding way. Edwards often seemed like he was saying stuff just to say stuff. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I love his interviews... the guy is just plain smart... he challenges everything... he's always talking about rule changes (ex. cameras on the endzone) and always has a unique perspective on the game, the players, the rules, the calls, the history.

Dr. Octopus 0 Posted September 18, 2009 Saying they ARE going to hit Brady more than 6 times sounds a bit like a QB bounty to me, certainly Belichick will bring it to their attention.

Breaking the rules isn't gaining a competitive advantage, it's cheating. Being a pompous jackass doesn't make you a genius either. The smartest thing Belicheat ever did was unearth Brady...but he's been reaping the rewards and getting credit that I don't believe he really deserves.

We claim that Polian or Manning or Ryan, or Roethlisburger, or some loudmouthed Dback is why we hate them, but the fact is that they are usually the teams with us at the end fighting for the crown. here's what I've learned as a Pats fan in the 2000's... if they hate you, it's good. They hated the Lakers. They hated the Celtics. They hate the Yankees. They hate the Canadiens. They hated the Steelers and Cowboys in the 70's. They hated Jordan. They hated Bird. They hated Kareem. If they ain't hating you, you probably are not relevant. The Jets have done a really good job of being relevant without necessarilly winning all the time in the 2000's. What Ryan said is fine (if that's your style... and it seems the this style is part of the RyanFamilyFootballTradition.) Maybe it will work for him... but if/when it doesn't, he'll just be another jackass yapping without backing it up.

WhiteWonder 2,736 Posted September 18, 2009 actually, what I find to be the funniest part of all this is that no one in the Jets organization has said "We WILL win the game" or "We WILL hold Brady to X yards" there hasn't been a personal callout on any Patriot player (no I don't count saying they are going to get after Brady). Basically everything being said is to motivate themselves. Not to unjustifiably sh it talk to the Pats. Rex Ryan saying he didn't come to the AFC East to kiss the Patriots rings is a smart comment. If you came to the Jets in order to bow to New England, you should have stayed in Baltimore. It fires up the Jets and their fans but shouldn't worry the Pats in the least. Do they really expect teams to kiss their rings? Did the Giants? Kerry Rhodes says that "you go out there not just to win the game but to embarrass them" Im not quoting him word for word but you get the point. Nowhere in there is he saying "Man we are going to completely embarrass the Patriots this weekend". No, not at all. What hes doing is commenting on the mentality the Jets players need to have in this game. They should be playing every game with the intent to embarrass their opponent. Now I can sort of understand the minset of not saying anything but when I hear it from Pats fans I tend to shrug it off, knowing that they are so used to not getting to hear a thing from any of their players or coaches.

I agree here, but I don't hate the Patriots because they are great, and rivals with the Colts, I can't stand them because their organization, in my opinion, lacks sportsmanship, and are somewhat corrupt (I don't want to throw "cheat" around because that's a whole new debate). But even still, there's 2 sides to everything, I know Patriots fans that hate Peyton Manning, I know Yankee fans that hate the Red Sox, etc. I just hate when homers stick up for their team so blindly as some of my experiences with Patriots fans. There was a Patriots fan on here a few weeks ago that sat here and listed Fred Taylor, Sammy Morris, BGE, Watson, Edelman, and Baker as HUUUGE WEAPONS for the Patriots, and that teams cant possibly cover all those guys. When in reality, they have a top2 QB, and the best 1-2 punch at WR (behind Fitz and Boldin arguably). It just differs for me, because as a Colts fan, I can sit here and argue the strengths AND WEAKNESSES, when some homers just simply think their team is perfect.

PATSSOX 22 Posted September 19, 2009 hey i can say with absolute certainty that i HATE THE YANKEES does that count for anything who cares who is listed on injury report and who is not? its not much of our business unless you guys work for a NFL team so why do you care so much? if i was a coach i would do exactly what BB does. not disclose any more information than i have to. why give your opponent any edge what so ever he does everything very close to the line. does he cross it...maybe sometimes, does it piss us fans off when he wont say how bad someone is hurt.....YES. but unless you are paying that player or coaches salary who gives a SH!T my hate list -The ENITRE YANKEEs(well i do say i admire Jeter, Posada, and Rivera they are true pro's but the rest especially A-hole can rot in hell) -Bill Buckner -Bob Stanley -Big pathetic Ben(something about him i just do not like) -the VaGiants -thats all for now so its kind of a short list but you get the point PATS still will go 14-2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Boston Three Party 6 Posted September 19, 2009 Fock the Yanks. Fock the Jets. Bring the rain and the long TD pain come Sunday TB. I cannot believe how much ish is being spouted, especially the focking voicemail. Ridiculous, and hilarious at the same time for a Game 2. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pittnthat 0 Posted September 19, 2009 Totally agree.... Have you heard that new song "Hey Ya" by Outkast???It's great that we are living in 2004 That's when the big games numerals still had 30's in it. Wow,that was a very long time ago. Wonder if they can win a championship in the 40's numerals? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BirdBradyBobbyOrr 0 Posted September 19, 2009 Did a little research today on Kerry Rhodes. He's a pretty damn nasty football player and he's actually on pace to have 20 sacks and 20 interceptions which will put him in some pretty elite class. Of course Rodney is the only 30 sack 30 interception player of all time but still Kerry Rhodes has been balling since he came into the NFL. Knowing that fact I'm even more interested to see how he handles himself and I will give even more credit to Brady and the Pats when they school him.

WhiteWonder 2,736 Posted September 19, 2009 Rhodes is a good player. I remember the year he was drafted, alot of people were saying Andre Maddox who was drafted a round later, was actually going to be the better NFL safety. I think alot of what he has done gets overshadowed by the fact that he is one of the more outspoken Jets, GQ photo shoots and all, and that there are alot of other amazing safeties in the AFC (Polamalu, Reed, Sanders). He was definately snubbed for the Pro Bowl a few years back when he had 98 tackles, 4 picks and 5 sacks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

OK I understand the question so I'll answer it and then critique. Brady. Either is disgusting, I like vag, but if I had to choose I'd take Brady, think Jessica Alba vs Maude and that's where I'm coming from. Now to the critique part ... Only a freaking queeeeeeeeah would call it a "snake". What is your pet name for the nutsack? Purse? You didn't use "who's" correctly. It's actually "whose snake" not "who is snake". I hate to be the grammar police but you are a dink. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
