The day they announce an NFL franchise in Toronto, i will be on the season seat holders list.

Yes, I'm kidding people.
Knew that line was coming.
Just can't bring myself to being a fan of the Dolphins. Nor the Jets and Pats.

I would consider trading Habsy the Dolphins fanhood for the Bills fanhood...

Geno finished up a nice preseason for himself, and while it's still up in the air if he'll be any good.....he's definitely showing flashes of progression, especially in pocket presence, accuracy, using the weapon that is his legs, and defense recognition.
Liking the chemistry he's shown with Decker so far too.....

All the Jets offense needs to be is mediocre, and they have a legit shot at the playoffs.
That said i'm not sure it can be mediocre.

you always think the offense is better than it is though.
Remember the Sanchez denial years?

Not really.....our offense was always our weakest point, and all Jets fans readily acknowledged that. Hell, your "Jets offense just needs to be mediocre" is damn near a verbatim regurgitation of what I'd say every pre-season.
With Sanchez I simply always said it was dumb for people to write him off so early.....noting plenty of good QB's had similarly shitty starts to their careers. Also said he'd his development would be benefit greatly from quality offensive coaching, instead of playing for the likes of Schotty and Sporano......and he's looked like a completely different QB under Chip Kelly's tutelage this pre-season.
I feel similarly about Tannenhill, now too.

The NFL has everything ass backwards. It'd be laughable if it wasn't so ridiculous. I've heard they are trying to leverage laxer recreational drug rules into tougher PED testing which I agree with, but they look like a joke when they take recreational drug use more serious than domestic abuse.

It's Gordon's third time getting busted, he also got caught for DWI after his third failed test.....all but ensuring Goddell wouldn't be showing him any leniency. Also, under the NFL's drug policy (which was agreed to by the Player's Union) drugs are drugs.....if you know it's a banned substance, and that you'll be tested....and you still fail 3 times? I don't have a whole lot of sympathy for you.
Ray Rice was a first time offender, had a great track record of charitable and community work on his resume and his own wife went before Godell asking for leniency with the suspension.
Which isn't to say that I believe (a) they should suspend for pot, or (b) that Rice shouldn't have received a harsher sentence.......but to pretend the two suspensions are comparable 1-1, is to ignore the reality of each individual situation, and the additional circumstances surrounding them.
