Titans are favored by 1 point?

Yep, a 4-9 team is favored over us by 1 point...


Talk about no respect, this team needs to go down there and hand the Titans their asses for that, really they do. A 4-9 team is favored over us now? That is the final damned straw, or it should be.

When you play as bad as we do, you don't deserve respect. You have to go out there and earn it every single week.

Actually favored by 1.5 or 2 on some sites.

Really? What respect are the Titans due? What makes them a favorite in this game?

I'm not talking about them. I don't care who we're playing against. With the way we've played this year, we do NOT deserve respect so don't go crying about it when no one gives it to us.

So... NO! The Jets should be favored by at least 3 points here.

No respect? You realize this is the Jets right? If you just listened to WFAN and ESPN soundbytes and didn't know our actual record you'd think this team was 0-12 by now. Rex Ryan is worse than Dick Kotite.

Who gives a sh_t what the degenerates in Vegas think? They had Brian Schittenheimer's Rams favored to beat us and we dominated those clowns in their own backyard.

Okay wait a second, if we don't deserve respect they don't deserve respect either. Matter of fact they deserve less respect than we do, so how are we underdogs in this?

Dick Kotite > Rex Ryan

Mike Francesco and his kiss-ass screened callers told me so.

I'm not saying we should be. I'm simply talking about the respect angle.

Also, isn't this a home game for them? Home teams are usually favored by about 3 points, no? Them being a only 1 point favorite should tell you all you need to know

Jets are a little better than the Titans, but Titans are at home. Spread makes sense, but if you are so sure it's a bad line, put some big money on the Jets.

I'm coming out of retirement to make this comment.

If you think the point spread is that awful, have some balls and put some money on it. I mean if you think the Jets are such clear favorites to win then it should be a no brainer..right?

The Jets are 3-1 in their last four. Tennessee is 1-5 in their last six and have lost to Jacksonville once and Indy twice and we annihilated Indy when we played them.

How are we not favored here again?

I really don't care, to be honest. Either way, we still don't deserve respect until we go out there and earn it.

And, no, barely beating Jacksonville and Arizona isn't earning it.

Same exact argument for Vegas favoring Rams over the Jets in STL? How'd it work out?

Uh... did Tennessee barely beat Jacksonville? Did they hand the Colts their asses? I mean they had two shots at the Colts and couldn't get it done, no way they're as good as the Jets.

I don't give a **** what they did because I'm not talking about THEM. I'm talking about US. We barely beat Arizona and Jacksonville after getting embarrassed by New England. That doesn't deserve respect, mate.

You're missing the point... Who deserves less respect, us or them?

No, YOU'RE missing the point. I'm not including THEM in the conversation. I'm talking specifically about us and us alone. Don't whine about us not getting respect when we've done **** all to earn it.
