I'm beginning to feel like moving to the Jets spells doom for any QB. Their record of QB injuries right after a deal is unreal.

No matter what happens, no matter how many well intentioned Jets QB moves go south, they can never take away that greatest gift of all . . . the butt fumble. I have a vidclip of that on my phone; in the dead of winter when it's cold and slushy and the bus just skipped my stop pulling that clip out and playing it puts a smile on my face. Thank you Jets, thank you.

I'll just run off on a little tangent here, something that bothers me about sporting events. Why do some people show up to the stadium/arena/etc or to watch a game wearing gear from a team that isn't playing?
Take the kid in the video. He is at a watch party for a Jets and Bills game, and he is wearing a Raiders hat.
Why?

Maybe he’s a Raiders fan and likes watching football? You have people that watch a game but aren’t fans of either team playing . They want to watch because of fantasy football or other gambling. Maybe they don’t like one team and is watching in hopes they lose. Could be it’s expected to be a good game because two solid teams are playing( doesn’t apply to any Jets game)….

Or, the Occam's Razor answer, maybe he lost a bet?

The watch party was in Wisconsin, meant for Rogers haters. So why not? ;)

I'm not in the camp, nor do I personally know anyone who is, that is happy about AR going down. Why? Primarily because we just lost out on a #1 pick in the 2024 draft. 2nd, at least for me, I only wished at most that the guy would've played terribly so as to enhance our pick. Now it's a 2nd round pick. I'm admittedly not an AR fan because of his demeanor in GB the last couple years, but always thank him for the 1 SB and for his service. Yes, he was fun to watch, but the constant divaness, superiority complex, "me-first" attitude, and his evident growing disdain for the organization grew old fast. I think someone recently said, "at least New York can look forward to signing Jordan Love in 20 years".

I'm not passing judgment on JLove until we've seen 8-9 games, but so far he looks poised and in control, admittedly against one of the worst teams in the league, however.

Hate to see Chubb go out like that. Dude is a classy player. Yikes.

Liking your assessment, obviously.

The first 2 weeks have ruined every fantasy team I drafted this year except one.

Notable disasters:
I drafted Cooper Kupp for the first time... opps.
I drafted Chubb as my RB1
I drafted Josh Jacobs as my RB2 on that same team... I was so excited, I was in the 8 spot on a 10 team league.
My back up RB on that same team is Breece Hall.... *sigh*
I drafted Joe Burrow. ( still have my fingers crossed )

Notable bright spots:
I picked up Puka to replace Kupp. He's been lights out so far.
