Yup. It was surprising. Good job Jets! Love the speed and intensity of the defense too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

West end of Long Island? We will make the Jets pay when they come to Orchard Park We're on the South Shore of Suffolk, but close to the Nassau border. Much prefer visiting the North Shore fork, for it's ruralness, farmstands, and Bed and Breakfast places. South Shore fork is over-crowded, more expensive, and extremely snooty.

paul carruthers Posted November 7, 2022 Share Posted November 7, 2022 It's amazing that as much as Tampa sucks, they can still win that shitty division & get a home playoff game. I know it's happened before, but it still pisses me off when a mediocre division winner gets an advantage over a team with a better record...

But weren't there nationally televised games also, for other areas who had only one local team - or even no local teams? Yes, but the national game tended to usually feature the Green Bay Packers/Dallas Cowboys on the NFC channel (CBS) and Miami Dolphins/Pittsburgh Steelers on the AFC channel (NBC). Except on Thanksgiving, when everybody got to see Detroit and Dallas host nationally televised games. 3 hours ago, LedZeppfan1977 said: I went to Montauk last summer. The one before this recent one.

Due to either injury or lack of motivation due to looking ahead at next opponent. We lost Miami game where any one of several things by itself would have swung it our way. Missing McKenzie in end zone, Bass missing FG….you get the idea. So do think the Bills are no longer the favorite to win East? Miami and Jets have to come to Buffalo and it won’t be 100 degrees Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paul carruthers Posted November 7, 2022 Share Posted November 7, 2022 Oh I'm sure if Buffalo plays the way they are capable of playing, they will still win the division. I guess every team has a week where they look like underachievers, or shit just happens. Like I said previously, I have no idea what Josh saw when he threw those picks. I still think the Jets are just over-achieving, which is why I thought Buffalo would hang 30 on them yesterday, so maybe that's why I was pissed...

My wife always enjoyed stopping there, good quality seafood. If you do visit the North Fork, you'll want to check out Claudios and the activities on the dock nearby.

As good as Cape cod, Barnstable where the whale 🐳 tours are and best fish market in the NE. I had a Flounder sandwich also. I bought some Flounder on way home on route 27. Before I was beyond the West Hamptons. Montauk point gift shop we liked and a book we bought there will go to my granddaughter. The lighthouse was closed due to remodeling. I want to return next summer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I recall there was a proposal to actually move it, last time we visited. Originally commissioned by George Washington - that is just amazing to ponder. Did you hear that Allen has some sort of UCL issue - anything to do with his sombersault roll after that TD run? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LedZeppfan1977 Posted November 10, 2022 Share Posted November 10, 2022 5 point swing in Vegas on the line if Josh is out. They know McDermott' cat and mouse games already. They are NOT RISKING Josh jeopardizing his season over this. They can win with Case Keenum. Still favored by 3.5 with Case. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strider Posted November 10, 2022 Share Posted November 10, 2022 Halfway point in the season and can anyone name a sure-fire favourite to get to the Super Bowl? Kansas City, I suppose, especially if they beat Buffalo for home field advantage. But who among the rest? Buffalo, Miami, Baltimore, San Diego, Tennessee, Cincinnati in the AFC have all shown themselves to be beatable and downright awful at times. And the NFC is a compete mystery. Philadelphia and Minnesota are the most untrustworthy 8-0 and 7-1 teams in NFL history. Philadelphia has feasted on the dregs of the league so far...Detroit, Jacksonville, Washington, Arizona, Pittsburgh, Houston. They do not play a team with a winning record until December, when they play Tennessee, the NY Giants, and Dallas (provided those teams keep winning and don't fall below .500). Minnesota? All you need to say is two words: Kirk Cousins. When has he ever showed up in a big playoff game? Dallas, Tampa Bay, Seattle, NY Giants, San Francisco...big question marks, all. This year may be the most wild, wide open playoffs in a long time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both the Bill and Vikings are 0-4 in Super Bowls. Vikings had the misfortune of facing Raiders with Stabler, Bradshaws Steelers, Dolphins with Shula and Griese and the one they should have won, vs the fat boys KC team. They put that game on astro turf, and Joe Kapp would have murdered them on grass. Of course we know the Bills missed the game winning FG in 1990. Nobody will be happier if they win than Scott Norwood. Last I knew he was selling insurance somewhere in Seattle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They still list that as one of the greatest Super Bowls, and sure we celebrated heavily - but I'd think fans in general would want to see an accomplishment decide the game? So it seems that Allen will play out the season with that arm issue? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
