Week 5 Discussion Thread.

Can someone Tweet Cro for me asking him, if he is now the best CB on the team and best WR?

[Rosebud]

I'm disappointed to see that Tebow's impact was limited one inspiring throw that motivated the team to beat the spread. Hope this doesn't mean we have to wait another week before Tebow Time arrives for reals.

IF he didnt say yes, he wouldnt be Cro.

I'm still more than comfortable with my Steelers Super Bowl pick after watching the Texans. I don't trust Schaub at all.

There are many, many, many other reasons to be uncomfortable with that pick.

Pitt to the SB???

I think Baltimore has better chances than Pitt.

[Hurricanes25]

A loss always sucks but I'm happy with the jets effort. I didn't think this game would be close but they were able to hang in there. Disappointing considering we left some points on the field but we played with a team much better than us.

He's an idiot, but an incredibly athletic idiot. He was born to play press man, and that's what they ask him to do.

Also extremely inconsistent. He'll have games like tonight and then the next game he'll look like crud.

In years past yes, but he's been pretty damn good this year, consistent too. He's playing like a pro bowler through 5 games.

He's been very consistent as a Jet. Again, this Cro isn't the SD Cro you saw out there. He's much better now.

Well yeah, it was a preseason pick. I just don't buy Houston as the juggernaut a lot of people thought they were. I think Pittsburgh would beat them in a playoff game.

Right now I'd probably take New England, just because the AFC sucks and they're probably gonna coast to a first round bye.

That's the worst kind of awful.

except, of course, when they ask him to play the deep third.

i'm sorry, i'll stop now.

Andre Johnson looks kind of washed up to me. I know he had the big game against Miami but besides that he doesn't look like the same player at all.

Agreed. Sad he was wasted for so long but he's not the AJ of old.

He's had a groin injury but i agree he isn't where he was a couple of years ago.

I haven't watched the play, but since it was Daniels.....was he covering the seam? Because if so, it sounds like he was trying to cover for a safety's mistake.

i have no idea. i'm just taking out years of frustration with people calling out champ for coverages other people blew on cromartie. i haven't really looked at the play at all.

Yeah, I noticed before my fantasy drafts that he was 31, which kind of surprised me.....seems like that happened really fast. Along with all the probable wear and tear, I made sure to avoid him. After watching him today, I'm very happy with that decision. He looked like Dane Sanzenbacher trying to beat Cro's jam.

Ah. I remember arguing with a Cowboys fan about Champ Bailey vs. Terence Newman a few years ago and TDs against being the guy's main argument, so I know what you mean.

[Thecollegedropout]

The Good
- The secondary was great today. Cromartie was amazing, Kyle Wilson AND Eric Smith two guys I have given **** on for a while both played great. We did leave guys open inexplicably which falls on our 2 **** pass coverage safeties but the secondary was alright for the most part.
- Sanchez was alright. People who think Sanchez was to blame for the loss like the idiots on Jets post game for SNY need to turn their football cards in. 1st Int was a tipped pass and as a result an INT......2nd one was on Cumberland for not getting the ball. He played a alright game, not a great one...but given the pressure he was feeling, a lame running attack yet again and unfamiliar targets on offense.....he did well enough to keep us in the game, if not win it.
- Joe McKnight balled on the kickoff for TD. Knew he'd do it, Graham has a **** leg on kickoffs.

The Bad
- Hate the onside kick call but it came close to working and its either a good move or bad move if it works. I hated it after a McKnight kick return TD personally since you give your awful D less field to protect
- Tebow was hit and miss. Not terrible but times I would rather not see him personally. Indifferent all around but he did serve his purpose for today.

The Ugly
- Run defense is god awful once again......we have absolutely nothing here. Even if Pouha played this would not have mattered. I know Foster is a sick tailback but regardless this is a joke how we keep letting backs go for 150+ on the ground
- Did not get a single sack.....absolutely sickening. We drafted Coples to do something worth a damn as a guy to apply pressure and he did absolute jack **** in the game. Wilkerson came close but he was nonexistant. Devito is becoming a problem as a starter and Pace/Thomas are worthless if they cannot get to the passer. Aaron Maybin is an invisible ghost.
- Burning the timeouts stunk but the problem this coaching staff had was these stupid playcalls. I swear I saw something that Schotty would have done with the random McKnight wildcat call
- Shonn Greene ******* sucks and both he and Powell and absolutely useless as pass catching backs. I want to see Grimes play.....we need something out of this position. Greene had two good runs the entire game and while I get we ran against another great Rush D, it comes a point and time where you need to try something else at the spot. Saw at least two times a good RB makes a cut on the outside for more yards though I will be fair here and say the O-Line did not do much as far as getting a push goes.
- Offensive Line got dominated by a hell of a pass rush. Moore got his **** ate by Watt, Brooks Reed bursted through Smith and Howard and Slauson was even getting tooled there.
- We refuse to give Sanchez weapons and whoever thought it was a good idea to have THREE active WRs(One we signed 5 days ago in Hill who sucked) to play with Gates then leaving, leaving us with two should be reprehended. Cromartie as a WR even if Sanchez hits that is just a head ponderer. Braylon should have been brought back, simple as that.

We played arguably the toughest team in the league and lost by 6....can't get mad at the team. Now we need to play like this vs the Colts cause if we do, we can win. This was a solid effort all around and I know if we had been more healthy, we could have won this game.

Like the Steelers suck major ass?

[Raiderz4Life]

Sanchez wasn't an atrocity but he still sucked.

Which is a hell of a rut to be in.
