Pace Backpedals From Comments

After the first game against Miami, Calvin Pace made some uncomplimentary comments about the Dolphins. He backed away from them on Thursday.

Jets LB Calvin Pace, who after the 31-27 loss called Miami’s QB Chad Henne a "clown’’ and called the Dolphins’ "wildcat’’ offense "nonsense,’’ explained his comments today when I aksed him about it.

"I’m not much of a talker, and I said some things kind of out of character,’’ Pace said. "I meant them, but that wasn’t the right time to say them. Moving forward, we’ve got to stop them. They made a valid point (after his comments). If you don’t like it, stop them.’’

Pace said "emotion and embarrassment’’ caused him to lash out like that after the game.

"When you go out in any game _ especially Monday night in a division game _ the level that the defense played before I got back (from a four-game suspension) really wasn’t there,’’ Pace said. "For whatever reason we just looked rattled. We lost a lot of our poise in that game.’’

Talk about blown out of proportion. The media hits this guy after a heartbreaking loss to a bitter rival. It's ridiculous how much talk those comments generated.

A dolphins blog commentor to express his equally juvenile opinions

That’s what I expect.

How do you get “feud points” and how much time have you spent accruing them?

Don't they watch game film?

Do you think they remember that one touchdown was given to them on a blatantly fabricated pass interference call?

And one drive was kept alive by a roughing penalty that was also shit and went for 3 points? The game should have been 31-17 if the refs had not decided to give it to the jets

Dolphins and Gators baby!

Blatantly fabricated?

The guy was hanging all over Edwards the whole way down the field.

Good luck banking on Henne going 20-26 again.

Are you blind

are you stupid? even Jets fans were saying that wasn’t a penalty, even the biggest jet fan that guy from mike and mike was saying that was a horrible call and he’s a big time jets fan.

And now with Jenkins and Washington out

it will be even more in Miami’s favor. Barring shitty refereeing, the Jets will fare much worse in this game and will be lucky to score 14 pts.

Dolphins and Gators baby!

I actually agree

Wholeheartedly with both of your comments. Dolphins outplayed the Jets last meeting, and with key Jets players dropping off like flies onto the injury list I see very little hope in the upcoming matchup, especially without Jenkins, who was the cornerstone of the Jets Defensive rush. Washington , as valuable a playmaker as he is, can be compensated for with the rookie running back and the resigning of Justin Miller for returns.

Still, the team just can’t be the same.

Jets run game is gonna pound the Phins...

The Jets have been running like crazy lately and as much as i liked Leon, Shonn is a better back. Don’t be suprised if the Jets rush for 200 and pick 6 Henne (Again).

You do think highly of yourselves, don’t you?

2009 Dallas Cowboys: 10-6
2009 New York Jets: 11-5?
2009-2010 Dallas Mavericks: 57-25

If someone could make for me and send to me a joint Cowboys/Jets avatar, I'd really appreciate it. :D

I like how you are a fan of two teams

a true sign of a bandwagon bitch If I say so myself

I've been

a meadowlands fan my entire life since I would spend days there as a child, sometimes catching an early and late afternoon game with both teams. I don’t think this makes me any less of a person than your average steelers/cowboys/dolphins fan. If anything it makes me more objective and less arrogant than other fans.

Having two NY teams that play in different conferences gives me more football to watch. Since the majority of my years watching American Football have had both of my teams constantly losing, I have adjusted to just being a football fan, enjoying any game even if it’s the Lions and the Raiders. Fantasy football’s uprising has only aided this outlook.

The point being, if he were a front runner or a “bandwagon bitch” as you so eloquently put it he could be much better served to pick two teams BESIDES the Jets and Cowboys, especially this year. Furthermore, who cares? Only crotchety partisan minded singular fans that lack any creativity or research to otherwise talk down their rivals.

With the amount of people with favorite teams in each conference you must get to “say so yourself”, whatever the hell that implies, in person often, as I’m sure a strong minded and courageous person of your stature so frequently does.

It did come off as inappropriate at the time

However it says something that he revisited his comments and owned up to them.

I think the Jets win...

I really think we’re going to shove it down their throats. Our o-line is gelling, cotch is back at basically 100%, and we’re home. The dolphins game was the only bad game by the Jets all season, I think rex is gonna change up the schemes and our secondary and pass rush won’t let Henne throw 20-26…but this is why we play the game lol.

how are teh Jets gonna generate a pass rush without Jenkins?

Pace and Sccott overrelied on him and they havent done shit.
