I guess the Jets aren't the Super Bowl Champs yet, huh?

I'm having a hard time buying this. He made the catch as he was getting drilled and had fractions of a second to decide what he was going to do next. He could either:

a) Put his hand down to brace his fall. It just so happens that there was a ball in it.

b) Start celebrating by waving the ball around/slamming it down/etc.

Given that he had fractions of a second, which do you think was more instinctual?
Wes Welker would have been fundamentally sound and playing the game the right way as he watched that pass sail over his head incomplete.

They'll be a media darling 9-7 8-8 again. Their offense is one of the most pathetic things I've ever seen.

The Chiefs/Chargers game is way more exciting than the Jets/Ravens game, but ESPN will be talking about what this loss means to the Jets.

McLuster returns a punt for a TD.

And of course I'm sitting McCluster this week because he was listed as doubtful... Chiefs are looking pretty exciting today.

That was a punt return, so you wouldn't have gotten any points. Chiefs have 3 players that are legit threats every time they touch the ball.

I can think of 4, if you include Jones. If the Chiefs win, this is going to make the Rams loss sting a bit more.

Jones is a threat if you count falling into the pile after 3 yards a threat.
