Revis Calls TO and Moss Slouches

The Jets All-Pro corner won't face Moss until Gang Green play the Patriots next season, and who knows if he'll ever go toe-to-toe with T.O. again, as the Bills' soon-to-be free agent needs to find a team for 2010. But Revis has guaranteed there will be controversy leading up to those matchups after calling out both receivers in a recent interview with Deion Sanders on the NFL Network.

When Sanders asked Revis to play a game of name association using some of the game's top receivers, the Jet corner didn't hold back.

T.O.? "Slouch."

Randy Moss? "Probably say slouch, too."

Revis, who got my vote for defensive player of the year in the Associated Press awards balloting, was not thrilled when Moss downplayed being put on Revis Island in Week 2. Moss made just four catches for 24 yards, claiming Revis had help over the top. The Jets were not pleased when Tom Brady tried to hit Moss with a deep pass against Revis in the final minute in November with New England
up by 17.

When I asked Revis about his "slouch" comments the other day in the Jets locker room, not only did he not back off his words, but said he was angry because he felt he didn't get Moss' and Owens' best.

Did they give up against him?

"That's what I am saying," Revis said. "I'm all about competition. You got to play 60 minutes."

Was he disappointd they didn't?

"Yeah," he said. "You got to play 60 minutes if you are going to play against us. You can't sit here and play 45. It doesn't happen like that. You got to compete. That's is what it's about. When you're not competing - come on now. Let's compete. If they score five touchdowns on me, I'm going to give him his respect."

Revis gave respect to Chad Ochocinco, calling the Bengals receivers a "competitor," and the same for Smith. And he called Johnson a "beast."

I wonder what he calls Ted Ginn.

I would assume... "Butter Fingers"

Daddy.

 

[j.hen]

Dont fuck with Revis.

 

[theMINI]

I wouldn't fuck with Moss because if any receiver in the league can beat him it's probably Brady to Moss.

Fatass Rex is definitely brainwashing this dude. He was mad humble before.

Also, Randy Moss doesn't play hard all game?

I for one am shocked.

 

[Kuzzy Powers]

This whole Jets team talks way too fucking much..

Exactly. That's one thing I can't stand about the Jets. They need to learn to keep their mouths shut, especially Rex Ryan. I can't wait for the Colts to stomp all over them.

 

[wr50l]

Keep their mouths shut? Why? The Rex Ryan character has rubbed off on his team and they are now a fucking bad ass defence because of it.

You cant be a sick defense and keep your mouth shut off the field while doing it?

 

[wr50l]

The Jets attitude is brash and confident, when they go out on the field they back it up. Why should they change a winning formula to appease a few people who want to see them be a generic no personality team like every other?

What if they didnt limp their way into the playoffs and were at home right now.. would you still consider all that talk "a winning formula"? Its ridiculous. No reason not to stay classy when you're playing well.. the Jets are like the new kids on the block who just wont shut the fuck up and desperately need an ass beating. After this weekend, I dont expect anymore talking..

If they were at home right now they wouldn't be talking.

Jets playing with an attitude FTMFW.

I wonder how angry this forum will be tomorrow evening after the Jets beat the Colts

 

[wr50l]

What ifs are pointless. The Jets are in the AFC Championship game, they have great players, they talk shit, and they play mean team defence.

Quit being mad because the Jets called you and by you I mean a professional player you will never meet a slouch.

 

[.RoCkEtS1]

They don't exactly back it up. For one the Jets were just a better team than the Bengals, but the Chargers on the other hand played a bad game. They made UNFORCED ERRORS. I think the Chargers had something like 10 penalties all game and they missed 3 FG's and 2 of which were easily make able. The Jets got a couple of lucky plays as well and what annoyed me more than anything is that Sanchez was afraid to throw the ball downfield.

After they lose to the Colts they will return to their old ways and go 7-9/8-8.

Its not about calling anyone a slouch, its about being too fucking cocky and having nothing to show for it. They're lucky they were even able to get into the playoffs, their coach wrote them off, then turned around and talked shit like they were the best team in the league. Stick a pie in it fatso, save the trash talk for the field and try to win a title, stop acting like you won one already.

2 turnovers per game and 14 points against in both of their wins. This defence sure is lucky!

The Chargers played a bad game when it counted most, whilst the Jets played well. Rivers bottled it when his team needed him, and Sanchez did what was asked of him. Unforced errors are the signs of a bad team and 10 penalties in your most important game of the season is shockingly bad.

Don't forget the Chargers had to try those 3 FGs because the Jets D stopped the Chargers offense from getting into the endzone, they didn't just kick them for fun.

Yes, the Chargers played bad but to be honest the Jets didn't play any better. The Chargers kept them out of the back of the endzone except for a couple faults. One where Shonn Greene somehow ran through the whole defense and the other on was a TD pass to Dustin Keller in which the defender slipped (forgot who it was). Sanchez was a second from being sacked and if I remember correctly that was on 3rd down. The Chargers barely lost to an overrated team because they had a combination of playing a bad game when it meant most and just getting some bad breaks. That combination usually will result in a loss so I'm almost surprised that it was that close of a game.
