I have officially given up on the 2007 Jets season. I want them to lose very single game. I do not want them to go 8-8. I would like 1-15. We are aiming for the number one draft pick next year. Mostly likely, they should trade that pick down and build up some depth in the team. I am wathcing Chad Pennington run the offense. He just looks lack-luster. Something about his body language makes it look like he has lost his edge. And certainly, his passes are slow and wounded-duck-like.
The season is a completely fiasco. We don’t have enough talent and we don’t have the right chemistry. We need defense!
Ugh. Maybe I should just take the games off my calendar. This is embarrassing. I would rather be playing tennis or writing the book. Speaking of which, I should do that now.
No, no, no. The first pick is bad, bad, bad. In a world of salary caps the first picks is never worth the huge investment. Since 1990, in 17 years, there have only been 4 number picks who have even close to justifying the money for the #1 pick, Bledsoe, Orlando Pace, Payton Manning, and Carlson Palmer. Of course, the #1 pick would be great if they traded it for several later first round picks, but they never do that. However, a more reasonable approach to hoping the Jets lose, is that their schedule next year would be much easier. And as I believe the Jets are actually a better team this year than last, a creampuff schedule could bring us back to the playoffs again.
