Around the NFL Week 5

Yeah since the Jets got rid of the dumbasses on the field and organization (GM, O-Cor, Sanchez) they've played a ton better. Rex doing a good job. Addition by subtraction folks.

Geno looked good last night but lets not forget he's having a rough year so far. I do like the jets fight and that D is legit

Are Jadeveon Clowney's actions caused by agent whispers? - NFL.com (http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap2000000258572/article/are-jadeveon-clowneys-actions-caused-by-agent-whispers)

I have a big feeling this guy is going to be a huge bust.

^ he's lazy

My take on clowney is that he knows he's great and he knows he's going to be making millions, he probably has a minor injury which he could play through but he doesn't want to risk anything so he's playing really cautious right now, and wants to go to the combine 100% healthy.

I agree

Totally agree on Clowney. He has nothing to gain by playing. NFL execs have pretty much said he's not hurting his draft stock at all.

Jets have beaten the bucs, bills, and falcons(who are obviously not as good as we all thought).
They have really only played one pretty good team - the Titans- and got blown out.
Smith is definitely making strides, but this is a six win team at best.

I think a man quitting on his team is a huge sign of character issues. Huge. Also, he wasn't doing all that great at the start of this year. I would not want a guy who's going to quit on his teammates when it benefited him. Remember Carlos Rogers? Well, that's exactly what he did his contract year. Stayed out of games he could have played in (and was cleared) so he wouldn't get hurt.

Also, read the article I posted. You are hearing whispers from scouts about his dedication to the game. I'd say it is hurting his stock.

NFL execs: No one cares Jadeveon Clowney is hurt, draft stock is fine (http://www.usatoday.com/story/sports/nfl/draft/2013/10/07/jadeveon-clowney-2014-draft-south-carolina-gamecocks-steve-spurrier-marcus-lattimore/2935999/)

"Nah, no one will care," an executive in personnel for an NFL team told USA TODAY Sports on Sunday. "If he's healthy, works out well and most importantly interviews well, it won't hurt him."
