Jets linebacker Calvin Pace wins "whiny bitch of the week" award.
<snip>
Ryan and Jets safety Kerry Rhodes apparently aren't the only folks who speak without a filter on behalf of the New York defense. According to the New York Times, Jets linebacker Calvin Pace had this to say about the Dolphins offense upon returning to the team from his four-game, season-opening league suspension:

"Against a second-year clown quarterback, we didn't affect him enough,'' Pace was quoted as saying. "I guess you have to give him credit. The defense lost the game today.''

So you're giving the "clown quarterback'' begrudging credit, but making it clear that he didn't win the game for Miami, the Jets defense just lost it? Faint praise, indeed.

We can also count Pace among those who aren't big on the Wildcat. "I can't respect that stuff, all that Wildcat,'' said Pace, according to the Times. "We're in the NFL. Don't come here with that nonsense.''

There's some nonsense involved here, Calvin. But it doesn't have much to do with the Dolphins offense.

2. If it's the NFL, Mr, Pace, you should be able to handle that nonsense.
Your award is well placed, trumad.

4. Funny how he couldn't lay a finger on the "clown" QB.... (no sacks)
and how that "nonsense" Wildcat offense ran for over 150 yards against your stud defense and wildcatted the last 3 yards for the winning TD.

6. The defense didn't lose
it wasn't close. The refs gave the Jets three scores with bogus interference calls.
Should have been a blow out for the Fins.

7. Also---two fake punts when they should have been 3 and out
helped them get 10 points.
