Bradway's Mistakes
Too many mess ups from our General Manager. It may be time for a new regime!
Bradway's Mistakes:
Trading a #1 pick this year for Doug Jolley where we could have drafted Heath Miller (TE) or an offensive lineman.
Rushing Pennington back to start this season when he was not 100%.
The extremly high Pennington contract.
Muffing up the Laverneaus Coles tender where we could have picked up an additional 3rd Round pick.
Screwing up the tender as well to Chad Morton almost costing us a 5th round pick...or maybe it did...I can't remember.
Not drafting a single Pro-Bowl player in his regime. (Obviously Vilma will one day change that.)
Trading two first round picks to move up to the 4th slot to snag Dewayne Robertson who has bad knees.
Matthew Hatchette
Not figuring out how to sign Lamont.
Not getting a long term deal done with Abraham.
Not re-signing Jason Fergueson or Kareem McKenzie.
Giving up / Trading Santana Moss.
Dress Code Not Working
In the wake of the NBA's new dress code, Jets coach Herman Edwards has reminded his team of his rules regarding road attire.
Edwards requires his players to wear a sports coat or suit with a collared shirt, dress shoes and socks while traveling to the team hotel and to the stadium. Ties are optional but sweat suits, jeans, tennis shoes, sandals and excessive jewelry are prohibited. Following games, the rules are relaxed for travel.
Maybe they should try NUDE !

Barf Barf From Last Night
1. Vinny fumbles the snap on the 2nd offensive play of the game.
2. Vinny has 2 other fumbles and was sacked twice. Kendell is taking the blame but Vinny still needs to protect the ball.
3. Total of 3 fumbles on the first 4 possessions leading to a 17 point deficit.
4. The offensive line didn't protect the QB.
5. The offensive line didn't create any holes for the rushing game.
6. Clock management at the end of the half was terrible. We could have had 2 more plays from mid field if they were ready.
7. We got screwed out of a time out by the officials.
8. Bollinger's last drive took over 6 minutes off the clock to not score. They were not in any rush for some reason.
9. There was a Justin Miller kickoff return called back for a penality by Kenyatta Wright behind the play that was so stupid.
10. There were two completions called back due to offensive pass interference.
11. Testaverde strained his right Achilles' tendon and left the game in the third quarter.
12. The Jets (2-5) have lost six straight road games, their longest such streak since the Rich Kotite era.
13. On defense the Jets have allowed 382 yards rushing in the past two games -- against the Falcons and Bills.
14. The Jets lost linebacker Eric Barton (torn triceps) for the season. He got injured in the first quarter on his first play back.
15. Running back Curtis Martin was held to 28 yards on 14 carries.
16. Laveranues Coles suffered an elbow injury. The extent of the injury isn't known.
17. Also pathetic was wth a minute left in the first half, the Jets actually helped the Falcons overturn a 12-yard pass completion by Testaverde. The play set up the Jets at the Falcons 40-yard line with enough time to move into field-goal range. But confusion reigned on the Jets sideline, and Testaverde burned the Jets final time out. Replays of the play were shown on the scoreboard screens several times, leading Falcons coach Jim Mora to challenge the play. It was overturned, and the Jets had to punt.
18. This season, the Jets have been outscored in the first quarter, 40-7
19. When Testaverde bobbled the snap from Kendall on the Jets' second play from scrimmage, it was the team's 19th fumble this year - as many as they had all of last season.

Buc/Ex-Jet Anthony Becht reveals secret. . .
. . . that he has been a life-long victim of Hands Like Feet Syndrome.
"I've been holding this back for such a long time. It was eating me up inside, and I knew I wouldn't be able to be happy until I let it out." said Becht at a 4:20 PM press conference today.
When Anthony was born, doctors told his mother that the shape of his hands would correct itself within a year. However, after a year without any progress, he was diagnosed with HLFS. His parents were devastated. "We hoped that one day he would work in the family business. But who would eat a pizza made with someone's feet?"
At school, the other children ridiculed him, and frequent bullying forced him to eventually stand up for himself. He developed a strong shoving ability, and this was what drew the attention of the local high school football coach, Dirk Podinski. "He wasn't the brightest kid, and those mitts of his were about as useful for catching as hooves, but dang, he really knew how to shove." stated Podinski.
But Anthony refused to play on the offensive line, because he believed it was "for losers". So Coach P did the next best thing, and put him at tight end. That was the beginning of a magical journey that would lead all the way to being selected 27th overall in the 2000 draft by the New York Jets."
Every Sunday, I think of everyone who supported me so I could make it this far. I've started my own charity foundation to research a cure for HLFS, and I hope that I help some kids out there. As a kid I never could've imagined that I'd be making 1.69 catches per game for a professional football team."
When asked what he thought of Becht's revelation, Jets coach Herm Edwards said "Who the f**k is Anthony Becht?".
