Here We Go Again
Well, my NFL season got underway this morning pretty much as expected: with the Jets losing.
They were playing another rebuilding team from the AFC East, the Buffalo Bills. One of the weaker teams on their schedule, yeah... but they still managed to lose, and look terrible doing so. The Bills gutted Gang Green with their running game, going right through the line... where, as it happens, Sheldon Richardson used to be standing.
On the good side, our first round draft choice looked pretty good.
The rest of the team, not so much.
And instead of playing either of the young QBs, to see what they've got and maybe watch them develop, we played the old guy, Josh McCown, a 38 year old journeyman on his 8th team. Sorry, I just don't see the point.
It's going to be a long long season for fans of Gang Green.

If they can pull off a win next week against Oakland then that will hopefully propel them to win the next two games and hopefully look even with New England.

I think Petty will be the starter once his knee is better. They couldn't roll out Hack for obvious reasons.
Crazy week 1, my Niners looked as bad as expected. Hoping for some better offense but Hoyer, ugh. The Ryan brothers ree merged, Rex was pretty bad on MNF but I listened to Rob on Fox radio in the car for a while and thought he was funny and insightful.
