Darrelle Revis Is Still Getting Roasted
The Jets won yesterday, beating the Browns, which, okay.

Todd Bowles Changes His Mind About Ryan Fitzpatrick
Last night, the Jets limped their way to a 28-3 loss to the Cardinals. Ryan Fitzpatrick started, went 16-for-31, and tossed a pick.

The Jets Dragged Andy Dalton All Over The Field And Still Couldn't Win

Offer Sheet Drama Might Be My Favorite Part Of The NHL Calendar
There is nothing that gets hockey people riled up quite like offer sheets. Nothing. The mere rumor of their existence is enough to send fans clogging talk radio lines, and set GMs to vowing revenge and—quite literally—challenging each other to fights.
