Real fans want to win.
In January and February.
Not a third win in mid-December.

It's not even just about the 1 pick. Every win degrades the value of all of your draft picks. When they're in the war room in May and the guy they're hoping falls to them at the top of the 4th gets taken 2 picks before, I hope they remember this great win over the Titans.
I'm never in favor of tanking from the outset, but if you have 1 win at the halfway mark, there's no advantage to finishing 4-12 instead of 2-14.

Sorry Rex but "real fans" have the long term interest of our team at heart, not a pointless win against another dogshit team in ugly fashion again.
Go high five and pull each other off on the flight home, we will worry about the long term effects of this loss long after your dreadful tenure comes to an end.
Real Jet fans deserve better than the shower of shite you and your team have displayed this season.

While I agree completely with the sentiments expressed here that losses will do us more good at this point than empty wins, I think we all know that neither players nor coaches are going to approach the game that way. Nor would the vast majority of us if we were in their place. For them, competing and winning is what drives them to get up in the morning. No athlete likes to lose or is going to try to play some strategic chess match to move up in the draft. Everybody here knows that. The problem is that they should never go down the road of denigrating their fan base. Just not smart. Pryor, Richardson, and Ryan would be the most cantankerous fans on this site if the shoe was on the other foot... they'd be calling for heads to roll. They should just shut up and finish the season. A little humility is in order.

Pryor, you suck. Wins like yesterday are the difference between drafting you and OBJ. GFY.
Rex, you wouldn't know what a QB prospect looked like if your life depended on it. So GFY.

I love being told by a bunch of mercenaries who play for whatever team is paying them the most millions at the moment that I'm not a "real fan", despite the sacrifices in money and time I've given to this organization for almost 40 years, particularly when it is clear my motivations are for long term improvement. Congratulations on your third win, douche bags. Ten years from now, I'll still be wearing Jets green and you'll wearing a white bib covered in drool.

Fine, I get it, you're players and you want to win. I would if I was "playing", but I'm not, I'm only a "fan". And as a lowly "fan" I'm actually the reason your stupid fucking team and entire league exists. Without me you are nothing. So, don't tell me what the fuck to root for. And how dare you accuse me of not being a real fan. You've been on this team for a few years, and might be on it for a few years more. I've been living and dieing with this team fort he past 44 years, and I'll be with them long after all of you are gone. How about a little empathy for the fans who've had to watch this shitty team and dimwitted coaching staff for the past 14 games. Maybe instead of calling out the fans, you should look in the mirror and acknowledge that the only reason a fan might be rooting for a loss to secure a higher pick in the draft is because the team is a complete failure this season.

I couldn't have said it any better.

Real fans. Got it. Like those blowhards in Jets gear going crazy at the stadium tonight, making themselves look like complete dunces because they didn't realize the implications of this game. Real fans like that fucking horrible family of frontrunners in that NFL.com commercial who all chose new teams for no fucking reason at all and loyally buy the NFL's Official Merchandise (tm) for all their new teams at 2,000% markup. Real fans keep the money flowing to the owners. Real fans live in a fugue state of Pepsi halftimes and Coors Light Cold Hard Facts and the ADRENALINE that comes from seeing your team take the field to Katy Perry on the loudspeakers and getting a .75c discount on their $14 beer. This is FOOTBALL, baby. I'll leave the rooting to the real fans. Thx Sheldon and Rex and Richard Pryor. You've taught me a lot today. Agreed. That fuckin commercial is a JOKE. Ive been a JETS fan 40 years and will always be. We have a management team that is clearly well below average yet we are not real fans??? Tackle someone Calvin and STFU.

We sit, watch and support this team to win week in and week out, but the general feeling is it's typical they win the game the majority of fans want them to lose, they can never just get it fuckin right. No one cares that they are trying to win, but we take issue when we get labeled as bad fans because we have a more long term view well beyond the bums currently playing have left. Who the hell are a 3-11 team to start pointing the finger at the fans agenda?

Say, "I'm a player and want to win, but I understand where the fans are coming from. They want the jets to be a winning team and we clearly let the fans down this season."

Yeah, well, based on their play, they're not pro football players. So, I guess it evens out. Came to post this. They aren't a REAL NFL team, and even one step further, Goodell and Kraft has ensured the games are not REAL either. I've pretty much lost interest in this WWE version of football, catered to women and sodomites. And don't even get me started with these FUCKING commercials of the football players and coaches not saying anything, looking like they are gonna cry/in shock over speaking about Domestic Violence. So fucking PR phony horseshit. Whoever came up with that fucking bullshit I wanna find them and beat the dogshit out of them. It knew somehow it's all Krafty's fault.
