Five short term solutions for the New York Jets so they don’t embarrass themselves for the rest of the 2012-2013 season. Check back later in the week for five long term solutions, so the Jets can be a competitive team in the AFC in the coming years.
1 - Use A Sensible Tebow Plan - The type of plan everybody assumed the Jets were going to use this summer. This offense is short on playmakers, particularly in the running game so there is a viable role for Tebow this season. Use him in every short yardage situation out of an empty formation. Let him run option with players that have speed like Jeremy Kerley and Joe McKnight. Lull a defense to sleep with him running a few times and then let him take a shot down the field. Stop lining him up at receiver or H-Back. He has zero value there and you are playing 10 on 11 in those situations. Turn him into your primary second rushing option behind Shonn Greene.
2 – More Jeremy Kerley, More Joe McKnight - Jeremy Kerley needs 8-12 touches on a w...

New York Jets coach Rex Ryan said in Monday's teleconference that he is sticking with Mark Sanchez as the starting quarterback, but backup Tim Tebow could get a bigger role. "I think Mark's our guy, there's no doubt about that," Ryan said via the Newark Star-Ledger. Ryan said that Sanchez was "fairly accurate" when he got enough time to throw....

Mike Tannenbaum's words -- "What we've become is a more diverse, dynamic offense" -- may come back to bite him. [Tannenbaum] was giddy when he said those words during a middle-of-the-night conference call to announce he had traded for Tim Tebow -- not just as a back-up quarterback, remember, but as a special secret weapon.
This has to be it for Tannenbaum, right...

How would you grade the 2012 NFL midseason report card for the New York Jets? Is there a grade low enough? Do they deserve an F? After all, they are only one game below .500 this season. So, would a failing grade be fair? I think a more realistic grade for the Jets through the half way point in the 2012 NFL season may be that of an incomplete.
As in, the Jets are an incomplete team...

I have no idea why they haven’t benched Mark Sanchez for Tim Tebow yet. Mark Sanchez is completing 53% of his passes. Only Brandon Weeden has a worse adjusted QB rating. The team is 3-5. They brought Tebow in to be an alternative for Sanchez if he struggled right? Well he’s struggling right now. What was the point of bringing him in if you’re...

What an embarrassment. The Jets faced Miami with a chance to go 3-1 in the AFC East and head into the bye week at 4-4, having overcome major injuries in the process. In position to fight for a playoff road they battled so hard the past month to stay on a path towards. Instead, they honored the ultimate brave Jet Dennis Byrd, on the day of his jersey retirement ceremony, with a ...

Jets sticking with Sanchez at QB
Changes might be coming for the New York Jets. Mark Sanchez losing his starting job won't be among them. Rex Ryan again stood by his quarterback Monday despite Sanchez's struggles in an ugly mistake-filled 30-9 loss to the Miami Dolphins on Sunday that left the Jets coach searching for answers and fans chanting for Tim Tebow to take over.

Tim Tebow may have only played a little more than 10 percent
of the Jets offensive snaps this year, but he's still a hot commodity in the
rumor mill.
Reports of a Tebow trade to his hometown of Jacksonville,
Fla. sprouted up over night, as the Jets and Jaguars were rumored to be in
discussions.
Now, that speculation is being shot down.

I’d rather listen to the New York Jets talk than watch them play football. At least their press conferences are interesting. I fear that the Jets idea of offensive rhythm is to curse loudly while listening to “The Super Bowl Shuffle”. Much of the focus has been on the inability of the Jet’s brain-trust to figure out how to utilize Tim Tebow. Calls for Rex Ryan to bench...
