Cool. You don't like the bravado. I do. Big deal.

All the pressure is on the Patriots in this game. If the Jets get beat they were going to get destroyed by the media regardless of any recent trash talk. They have nothing to lose by talking mad shit right now.

I don't totally agree with this. The seahawks have nothing to lose since they're a sub .500 team. The Jets are a solid team that could definitely pull off a win, it's not david vs. goliath here. I disagree about the media bashing, i think if the jets didnt talk smack and lost it wouldn't be nearly as bad. Now if they lose they come off as a team that can hype a match up but can't follow through

The Jets talked enough shit before the previous two games that even if they were totally silent this time around the media would rip them apart.

Also, what Cro said is true. No one is disputing that so why is a big deal? No one gave a shit when Brady went out of his way to say how much he hated the Jets a while ago.

If you talk stuff like this about arguably the best QB of all-time before a huge game.....it's going to be news. You know that. It comes with the territory.

You can't say that Tom Brady is "an asshole" and "Fuck him" and not expect eyebrows to be raised and for the media not to run with it.

Saying you hate a team when asked if you watch Hard knocks is a little different than calling him an asshole. He's setting himself up to get burned, like Revis did when he called Moss a slouch.

Tom hates the Jets. He expressed that. Cro thinks Tom is an asshole. He expressed that. No difference.

Just want to see a good game. If I had to root for a team I'd say the Jets.

Really don't understand why Cromartie's comments are being discussed. Of course he thinks Brady is an asshole. Why wouldn't he?

And yes, the Jets have nothing to lose in this game. No one thinks they will win and why would they change their tune now? They have always been a shit talking team and continue to be so. I'd be more concerned if they were not talking.

Not always. They didn't talk shit under Mangini. I like the swagger they have now, even if it does backfire sometimes. It's entertainment.

You're looking too much into the last meeting if you think no one will pick the Jets to win. You're pretty much saying they have no shot so why not talk smack and hope they have a bad game

And apparently the players have responded well to the change of culture. Before they were a bunch of trash talking assholes they wallowed in mediocrity, making the playoffs every other year or so but getting bounced in the first or second round every time. Ryan comes in, changes the culture and they head to the AFCCG game in his rookie season. He has a chance to get there again in his second season. Yeah, yeah, I get it. Harbaugh did the same thing without talking shit.

I meant with Ryan. He was the right hire for the personnel they have.

And I'm not saying they have no shot. They have a shot, but microphones are going to be in their faces even more this time around, so of course some things are going to be said that are considered trash talk.

Antonio Cromartie has fathered 9 children with 8 women living in 5 different states!! Why does anyone think for a minute he would say anything intelligent?

(An) illegitimate kid, not 8 of them!!

I dont think Brady has been charged with 5 different failure to pay child supports, either.

Bottom line. Cromartie is an idiot. Tom Brady is a prick. They both have illegitimate kids.

Would you rather have Brady or Sanchez as your QB for the next 5 years?

Brady is better than any player that has ever played for the Jets. I know that. Doesn't mean I can't think he's an asshole and a whiny bitch.
