Jets' Holmes unimpressed with Pats' defensive efforts By Marc Sessler NFL.com Published: Oct. 6, 2011 at 12:54 p.m. Updated: Oct. 6, 2011 at 04:22 p.m.
C'mon, Rex, say something!
It's been awfully quiet in the hours leading up to Sunday's clash between the Patriots and the Jets. New York's Santonio Holmes finally broke the silence Wednesday, ripping New England's struggling defense.
"The numbers speak for themselves about how well they're not playing," the wide receiver told reporters Wednesday, via ESPN New York.
Holmes then took a shot at the equally mouthy Joe Namath, who's spent an inordinate amount of time dishing out his opinion on the Jets' disastrous two-game skid.
"Joe Namath doesn't work for the New York Jets," Holmes said. "He doesn't coach here. He doesn't have anything positive to say about us. We can't feed into what he talks about on the outside to the media."
Does anybody still regret trading this clown? I know Tone was a good receiver, and it sucked what we got in return for him (esentially, Bryant McFadden ), but I no longer miss this goofball with his "me, me, me" antics, off-field troubles, and big mouth. I think he's making a big mistake poking Brady and the Pats with a sharp stick considering the way his team has performed so far this year.
I'm still rooting for the Jets even though I despise both teams, but I hate the Cheats even more. Shut up and play the damned game, Tone!

I'm not sad that he is gone.

I gotta admit, Wallace really softened the blow.

Now it's official: The New York Jets' locker room is fractured.Veteran guard Brandon Moore, taking offense to Santonio Holmes' latest criticism of the offensive line, fired back at the wide receiver Friday, telling ESPNNewYork.com that Holmes is creating a rift by throwing teammates under the bus. "He's obviously got the green light to evaluate every position on the team," Moore said. "I just didn't think captaincy entailed that. I've never seen a captain do that. That's not leading. That's not being a leader. It actually fragments the locker room. It's not productive."
Moore, the longest-tenured player on the Jets' sputtering offense, is regarded as one of the quiet leaders on the team. That he decided to speak out against Holmes is an indication of the current state of team chemistry. "Obviously, it's OK to do that," said Moore, alluding to Rex Ryan's freedom-of-speech policy. "This organization lets you say whatever you want. There's no muzzle. But as a professional, there are some things you do muzzle. I've muzzled my mouth numerous times. It's called being a pro. It's called taking care of your brothers in the locker room, the guys who fight for each other.
On Thursday, Holmes called out the offensive line for the second time in two weeks, saying the line is the root of the unit's problems. He made critical remarks after the Jets' Week 3 loss to the Baltimore Ravens, and he followed that up Thursday, by saying, "I may be criticized again for saying it, but it starts up front. The big guys know it. If they give Mark (Sanchez) enough time to sit in the pocket and complete passes, I think everything changes."
Really not upset we got rid of this cancer. Let's watch this one unfold
