No Comments »History Repeating Itself for Brian Schottenheimer
December 27th, 2011 afcbeast There is an old saying, “Those who do not learn from history are doomed to repeat it.” In some ways the present Jets struggle down the stretch resembles the one the team suffered in 2008. The offense is laboring to generate anything positive. Back in 2008, the most explosive player the Jets had was Leon [...]

September 1st, 2011 afcbeast RENTON, Wash. — Thoughts and observations after watching the Seattle Seahawks practice Wednesday: Marshawn Lynch jogged on his sore ankle without much trouble. He did not practice, but the injury does not appear serious. Reports of the Seahawks’ expected visit with veteran free-agent running back Clinton Portis appear unrelated to Lynch’s health. Portis, whose cousin [...]
