Ahh...Football

So, the Bills and Jets were playing one of those extremely nasty offensive games today. It was 6-3 Bills in the 4th Quarter, Jets with the ball, and a little over 6 minutes left when one of the announcers said, "I think the Jets are in 4-down territory here." Never before has a statement sounded so ridiculous, but so true, at the same time.

Of course, the Jets punted and then the Bills got a luck-and-skill 85-yard TD on the next drive. Like most announcers, this was pure proof that the Jets should have gone for it on 4th down, as if this was a completely predictable outcome in a game that had featured more punts than scores.

And with Chad Pennington struggling again, it didn't really matter what backup QB Kellen Clemens did in the last three minutes, he's got to be the new QB in town. Clemens didn't fare much better than Pennington, but I guess a guy who sucks and has arm strength is better than a guy who sucks and has no arm strength.

Boy, you gotta love sports.
