Who are you rooting for in the Patriots/Jets game?

Thats the Nacho we all know and love.

 

helping Wilfork up is a good way to tear a bicep. Better chance of rescuing a kid being crushed by a Buick.

 

Hopefully the Jets will be favored next week. That could dampen whatever fire they come out with on the heels of this game. If they're a dog we're in deep trouble IMO.

 

In other news, Sanchez still sucks balls.

 

Everybody see the JJ Watt-tipped pick six today?

 

That's not true. Sometimes the losing team loses b/c they're bad or inferior, period.... which makes them a better opponent to face than a winning team. I'd rather face a 1-6 team coming off a loss than a 6-1 team coming off a win.

 

I'm talking about statistically only.

 

Sanchez is runnin around smilin and sh!$, he knows he didn't sh$$ the bed this week and won't have to answer tebow questions for another week at least....

Jet fans with a moral victory.

 

Dolphins better not hand Sanchez and co a win again. Pressure him and knock him to the ground as much as possible. Need some sacks this time. Should come out rested and take control early.

And the Patriots are clearly vulnerable this year.

 

statistically you probably have a better chance of beating a losing team than a winning one. Just a hunch.

 

Patriots are nowhere near their old selves IMO. That culture is starting to dilute up there.

 

I agree, but that's beside the point.

 

They are so mad at Gang Green lol!! They cut off registration for new members lol!

 

How is it besides the point when your point was that it's allegedly worse to face a team coming off a loss?

 

You seriously can't be saying what I think you're saying. The Jets are going to play better/worse or be more/less motivated based on what Vegas thinks? Riiiight

 

Teams in general are more likely to win after losses than after wins. The "in general" part was my point. Your point was something different and therefore beside the one I made.

 

Well of course you're free to think whatever you'd like, but realize that the statistics regarding home underdogs disagree with you.

 

I think there's no doubt that the Jets are at least 2 point favorites next week. If I had to guess, the line will be Jets -3.5

 

Good. I don't like playing against home dogs unless I have a really good team.

I predict the Jets, as a home favorite, come out flat next week after that loss today. However, after we get up early, I think they'll come back and win.

 

Again, that's not necessarily true. If a team is losing b/c they're a subpar team, then they're losing for a reason; hence a loss won't make them more likely to win the following game, or else they wouldn't be a losing team in the first place.

If what you were saying is true then the Colts should've been an 8-8 team last year b/c they "would've" won a bunch of games coming off all their losses.

 

all the better for us

 

You're going past the "in general" point I made and talking about specifics and exceptions to the rule.

 

I'm worried about the game. Ryan's Defenses always seem to give inexperienced QBs issues. I hope we're able to run the ball at least semi-effectively.

 

actually, you're trying to be the exception to the rule.

 

No I'm not. Go back over however many weeks it would take to pick 50 teams at random that lose one week, and you'll find that those teams were more likely to win than lose the following week. That's the rule. The exceptions come when you introduce other variables that account for those exceptions, as you have done.

But either way, I'm done talking about it. I've made my point and you've made yours.

 

I've heard that before. Every year it seems. Then they go to the SB. Tom Brady is still Tom Brady. He has weapons all over the field. If his Oline gels, it's going to be NE dominating as usual.

 

I haven't thought it myself until now.

 

Eh, Kurley and Hill looked good for the green turds.

If I had time, I'd pop open a brew and go over to GG and enjoy the spectacle.

 

Wrong. How 'bout if I go back to 2003 instead?
Teams have a 1062-1162 record following a loss.
Please mail me my cookie at your earliest convenience. Thanks in advance.

 

There are mass suicides over there! One guy admitted he cried!

 

Gillette Stadium.

 

You forgot to mention the tattoo on his ***:

 

Yup. The announcers spit off a stat of something like the Pats 3 wins are by 50+ combined and the 3 losses less than 10. 9 times out of 10 and divisional rivalry is tight as the teams see each other 2x a year.

 

That's understandable considering most Jets fans have little in life to look forward to outside of their team winning.

 

Wouldn't be the first time or the last.

 

uhh Mark, its Football, not Fútbol.
(and yes I know what he was trying to do, prevent the Pats from getting a TD, however the fumble itself was his fault, still funny though).

 

Perhaps if you produced some exact statistics rather than offering what appears to be personal perceptions or anecdotal evidence.
