I`ve also heard reports of him saying he didn`t know what would happen. I`m not sure what`s true, what isn`t, but I`ll worry about it when it becomes official. All we can do is keep our fingers crossed I guess.

Not so fast...

No, it is official a 2 year deal with jets, reported on nfl.com

Well, it is what it is. It would have been fun to see him in purple, but it isn't like we needed him.

I wish him no ill will (although I can't wait to hold him to single digit yards when we play the jets this year... )

This is a good thing in the long run. I wish LT the best in NY... hell, maybe I'll even go see him play. Whether we sign someone or use Albert Young/Ian Johnson, I have full faith that player will step-up and play to the level of the team.

Good. We need to spend the money on our secondary and future QB.

Haha he's gonna be sorry. I don't think the jets will be much of a team next year. He just flushed his chances at a championship down the toilet.

if he really wanted a championship he would have signed with the vikings. he may be healthier than westbrook.....but he's not a homerun threat anymore like westbrook is. he doesnt put fear in defenses like he use to.

First of all.... LT is an ego-maniac. He could care less about the championship imo. He wants the ball. He wants to live in a big city.
Money helps. But the dude wants the glory. And aint no glory in Brett's, Allen's, and Peterson's homeland...LOL!!
