"Free agency started last night and was pretty crazy some huge money being spent. Osweiler getting £18m a year for the Texans, leaving the Broncos without a QB, Giants have spent a fortune on good but not great players, Oliver Vernon has more guaranteed money than JJ Watt. lots more deals but cant be bothered to list them all."

"A season of real promise for the Jets faded away into another year of obscurity on the back of a huge injury list and yet another crisis around the QB position. But there were some positives - crucially including the emergence of Rob Saleh as a credible head coach who has positively impacted on at least one key part of his team: defense, which really stepped up this year. There is a lot of young talent on that Jets roster and many of them will continue to get a lot better, which bodes well. It's still a young team. But the wheels fell off when opponents worked out that Zach Wilson has not stepped up at QB at all. So now he has regressed considerably. And then the big injuries - to the O-line and, most worryingly, to a RB rookie (Breese Hall) who was a contender for the pro-bowl and rookie of the year. QB is THE massive off-season issue for Saleh now. His defence looks big, aggressive and with depth. It is beginning to look like Saleh's former 49ers defense. Williams (DT) is an absolute beast now and teams struggle to handle him. So few teams thump us - lots of narrow defeats this season that could be reversed by a decent QB who gets the offense moving. Put us in the large group of teams with below-average QB capacity, who need an upgrade. Either Zach Wilson has to burst his own ego and work harder, or we bring in an established veteran to throw to a receiver set which has talent. Garrett Wilson and Elijah Moore are both fine targets. Play-offs will get interesting. No stand-out team just yet. The 49ers are rolling."

"Another regular season in the bag, it went by so quick. Niners with their 10th win in a row""¶. Seattle up next Saturday. A lot of talk that McVay won't be returning to the Rams next year, plus there is speculation that Donald will retire too""¶.. Poor old Burnsy! Purdy and the Niners are firing on all cylinders""¶. Every week it's an easy 30 Burger for this offense. Can't wait for the playoffs!"

Big week for us away to Washington Don't really see the giants beating the Eagles but worst case is we'll play the buccs who are by far the weakest team but we just do not do well against them Although I have liked sone of the performances last few weeks it gives me confidence that we are winning ugly as I think that's something we haven't done in the past as we're usually either lights out smashing teams or losing. We're into the back ups of the back ups in the secondary and it's a real weakness with two of the starting O line missing but nearly every team has players missing so if we can stay healthy we could get a decent playoff run

"Def - amen to that! I was in NYC when the other Jets players started wearing 'Mike Fucking White' t-shirts. Superb bit of 'Carlton Fucking Cole' trolling of Wilson...by his own fecked-off team-mates! Loved it. The press saw it as a divided camp, but I was less sure. Seemed to me that the camp under Saleh is actually pretty united...with one high-profile exception. He needs to come back down to Earth, start showing he's a team player and develop a Brady-style work ethic."

"southbankbornnbred 1:37 Oh cool I don't mind Jimmy G, Funnily enough I was watching the games Sunday and it was touted on there that Brady might be looking for one more season somewhere, ok he might be old but maybe that's what Wilson needs, Jimmy G fits the bill as well. Mayfield works as well. You're right about Wilson though he needs a attitude change, the difference between him and White in love from his team mates is enormous."

Trunds - I think Jimmy G would do alright with the Jets. The fans in New Jersey would certainly get behind him: Italian heritage and all that!

"Jimmy G is solid enough. I've never had the opinion that he was/is ever a SB winning QB, but he's easily good to lead most teams to a play-off place."

"Def - the smart money in Gotham suggests we're going in for Jimmy G in the off-season. He's certainly better than what we have - but 49ers fans will raise a smile! Personally, I'd take a risk on somebody like Baker Mayfield and sit Wilson as the #2 behind him. But that kid has to learn some humility and start focusing on his team-mates."

"lab 1:20 - ag ag ag That's the only way we're going to get them at the moment. :) A much better season than we've had for years but could've been so much more, a lot in common between the Jets and WHU. Hamlin just been reading about him confirming the posts on here. I generally sleep through anything but I was up till 4AM this mornng as couldn't sleep and I don't support either team, I was just looking forward to a cracking game like everyone else. Anyway as for the Jets, the future looks green, just need that QB"

"Awful situation and I hope the fella involved makes a full recovery, like Eriksen. Read that it seemed to come from heavy contact with his chest, which is always an unfortunate risk. The two head coaches, and players on both sides, deserve credit for refusing to continue when officials asked. It's too dangerous a game to have people distracted or concerned and not fully focused - other injuries would have followed. Bills went up in my estimation after that."

Wondered what happened. Got up to watch the 40 minutes highlights this morning and assumed that there was bad weather when I saw it was suspended. Well done to the coaches. What a brutal thing to happen. Hopefully the prompt medical attention will mean he lives to fight another day. No way can anyone play a game after that.

"Just reading that the officials were told to carry on playing 5 mins after he was carted off the field after receiving CPR. Both coaches told them to fuck off. I know the saying that the show must go on, but surely there limits?!"

"Shocking scenes at the Bills v Bengals game, Damar Hamlin given CPR on the pitch. Just went in for a normal tackle, got up then a second later literally just fell backwards. Not looking good."
