Week 5 Game Thread: New York Jets @ Pittsburgh Steelers

[hatnlvr]

OMG we got a turnover

and big Richardson gets hurt!!! SOJ

 

[The Wicker Man]

Todd Bowles is one of the worst coaches I have ever seen. He's starting to remind me of Rich Kotite.....

That name is never to be spoken or written........ever!

Even with the schedule lessening in a couple weeks, it would be over.

You expect your team to lose 1-2 games it should win, and win 1-2 games it should lose. So far, the Jets haven't beaten anyone they should have lost to, and after next week, there aren't going to be many chances.

So if they lose this game and next, even if they split with the Asterisks, they will still likely lose a game or two to an also-ran and finish about 8-8 - just good enough to avoid a good draft slot.

This team doesn't stand a chance of 8-8.... 6 wins is their absolute ceiling......

Pretty down on Bowles myself. But he's in a no-win with this challenge.

If he doesn't challenge it, he gets bashed for giving up.

If he challenges it, he gets bashed for wasting a challenge.

I think no one bashes him if he doesn't challenge because the replay very early showed that the spot was exactly accurate well before the snap. I actually have never been as down on him myself, and I am seriously beginning to doubt his in-game management/adjustments/presence.

Not sure I remember Kotite going 10-6 in his two seasons.

I'm down on Bowles, too, but this just totally lacks perspective of how bad it was under Kotite.

I hope you're right. I'd much rather go 5-11 or 4-12 and get the better draft slot than be mediocre.

 

[The Wicker Man]

Hurry the F up. 2 scores down, show some urgency.

 

[The Wicker Man]

Defenseless receiver, no call.

 

[Oraelo]

how was that late hit not a flag?

 

[The Wicker Man]

Bowles is a moron....I really wanted to like him but he's making it impossible.

 

[SackExchange]

how was that late hit not a flag?

Establishment team, NFL darlings.

Steelers, Giants, Asterisks (Deflategate aside).

 

[Elias]

Bowles needs to go. No game day awareness? Punt? In the situation?

 

[TebowCan'tThrow]

Any chance Fitzpatrick could hit a WR in stride?? Never mind I know the answer.

 

[SackExchange]

That late hit was disgusting, but more of the same from the NFL.

 

[Mainejet]

Is there a fucking thing that Bowles has done right today?

 

[Mainejet]

Somebody check the Jets locker room and make sure Bowles didn't shit on the floor..........

 

[The Wicker Man]

That late hit was disgusting, but more of the same from the NFL.

Other way around, it would be raining flags from every damn ref on the field.

 

[The Wicker Man]

Steelers keep running out of bounds...prolonging the pain.

 

[SackExchange]

Other way around, it would be raining flags from every damn ref on the field.

If Antonio Brown got hit 2 and a half seconds after the ball hit the ground, there'd be emergency congressional hearings convening right now.

He is coaching an awful team. So we can't totally blame him.
