Bengals don't know how to handle success.

I could stand to see Geno plant Roethlisberger a couple of times.

Here's something to tide you over til then.

Nice job on that one.  Look at that head bounce on the turf.  Ouch.

Almost as good as that Bart Scott hit from '06.

Why the hell is everyone still talking about the Jets?  They had a bad team this year and nobody with a brain thought they would make the playoffs.  Who the hell cares which QB will be starting for them next week?  Heaven forbid we talk about the AFC playoff picture or the wide-open possibilities for three of the NFC East teams.

The Jets have been a media darling for years now....seemingly the second Ryan became their head coach.

Yet they're the biggest non-story of the year.  I get that they're a New York team and are gonna get a lot of coverage, but there's another NY team that actually has a shot at the playoffs.

Just venting...

The Giants, being a traditional powerhouse in New York, constantly being under the radar is just bizarre.  The Jets are losers and always have been.

Add in Sanchez the Hollywood starlet dater and on-field fiasco to ESPN's Man of the Decade Tim Tebow, and I'm surprised they don't have entire shows fully devoted to them each day instead of just mostly.

I saw a Tweet Monday night, I think from Rachel Nicols of ESPN (very underrated hottie by the way) that said:

Dear Jets
Thank You
Love, The NY Giants

I haven't heard one peep about the Giants getting their faces kicked in by the Falcons all week, every thing is Jets, Jets, Jets.

KRonn

Agreed, the Jets are a non-story, except as failure this year. The Giants should be the team to discuss, IMO.


Neil

How can they avoid them?  Their coach is so brash and media-friendly, their starting QB is a pretty-boy GQ Brady-wannabe, their defence is full of guys who are better at talking than playing and their backup QB is the most overhyped guy in the history of the league.  It's shocking how much less attention is showered on top rookies from this year like Luck or RG3 (although RG3 is close just as Cam Newton was last year.  Advertisers love those exciting black QBs who get crushed after a few years in the league.) compared to Tebow.

We need more Russell Wilson discussion.  Little Wonder is amazing.

The kid was good at Wisky, but did I think he was NFL good? Nah.

Boy was I wrong. :blush:

We'll see if he Cam Newtons next year.

Little Wonder?  Bowie?
