I haven't seen any thread on the NFL here since 2021. Any other fans here?
Been a Jets fan for years.
The off season is shaping up to be eventful this year for the Jets in the search for a quarterback. Hopefully' it won't all fall apart (as often happens for the Jets).

There's a few of us about.

Mower Liberation Front is a NY Jets fan.

I'm a Chicago Bears fan.

There's probably someone on this board who supports a team that might actually win something too...

There's a serious rebuild on the cards for the Bears alright. Fields is a decent quarterback but he's been thrown in the deep end.

Long time New York Giants fan. Actually really enjoy watching college football. Follow no team in that.

An interesting deal between the Giants and Daniel Jones yesterday. He's a decent quarterback but that's serious money!

It got popular in Ireland in the early 1990s, believe there were Irish teams at the time.  And a league.

Yeah there was a highlights show on RTE back then. Miles Dungan presented it.
There's still an Irish league. Their season kicked off last weekend I think.

And one who is expecting to end up with either Jimmy G or Baker Mayfield as QB1 next season.

I remember that NFL show well. They had NBA highlights back then too. Was mad on the Chicago Bulls back then with Jordan, Scotty and Rodman.

Yeah I think we dropped the ball in a big way by not signing Carr. Who knows what goes on in Rodger's head and he could hold everyone to ransom and then decide to retire.

Yep - college ball is great. I should have thrown this into the Simple Pleasures thread long ago but any time that I go to the US, no matter what city - I'll go to an NCAA game if there's one on. I don't keep up with college stats so it's great to just be there and not have a dog in the fight. It's also a great conversation starter - you can just ask any of the die-hards and they'll give you a colour commentary.

I ended up at a high school varsity game once in Iowa where one of the teams was playing Iron Man football. Blood and guts stuff.

"Here's my shopping list. Sign my drinking buddies, OBJ, and I might think about it."

You know what fuck this. Move on. Talk to Baltimore about Lamar.

No two ways about it, he's an absolute embarrassment.  Would be nice to keep up the pipeline of Packers QBs moving to the Jets after three or four years of open retirement speculation.  Look forward to seeing Jordan Love in New York come 2032.

His arrogance has really fucking peaked! Unfortunately, he knows that Johnson wants him and I'd say Rodgers can make almost any demand and the Jets will pander to it. I think Lazard is a good signing. Anything else on that list is completely unnecessary given the players the Jets have. He can fuck right off with Beckham Jr!

It's shaping up to be yet another Woody Johnson disasterclass. He hires guys to build the team and coaching staff then constantly overrules them because he wants "his guy". Happening with Rodgers, happened with Tebow, and worst of all did the same with Herm fucking Edwards. That Jets team of the early-mid 2000s, with anyone other than Herm coaching, they go to at least one Super Bowl.
