Dolphins 30 Jets 25: Sick to My Stomach

Afc_divisional_game_6b53
I don't think the Jets could have gone into the bye on a worse note. Today's 30-25 loss to Miami at the Meadowlands stings. It drops the Jets to 4-4, one and a half games in back of the Patriots in the division, two in the loss column. The Dolphins are just half a game...

Audible: Can the Jets run better?

Cincinnati_bengals_v_4c72
I was reading Alan Faneca’s thoughts that the Jets run game could be better, and I wanted to pose the question to you guys: Can they? Are there things they can do better on the ground?

Hot diggity dog!

Banging out a report card at 35,000 feet, still wondering two things from yesterday’s beat down in the Black Hole: How does a stadium hot dog help a queasy stomach? Does Richard Seymour still think the Raiders will make the playoffs? As for the latter, my guess is no. After...

Same old Jets ... only worse

Picture_1
It was a Same-Old-Jets performance, straight out of … well, 2008, except this time they couldn’t blame a broken-down quarterback or a trip to the West Coast. (That’ll come next week.) The Jets were shockingly bad yesterday against the Bills in a game that should’...

Packers Sign G Stanley Daniels; Release T Dane Randolph

Green_bay_packers_0c34
As it says in the title; G Stanley Daniels was added to the practice squad, and T Dane Randolph was released. Randolph made it until the final cuts of the preseason, but was just added recently when T Jamon Meredith was signed off the practice squad by the Bills. Not much to go...

Why the Jets are 3-0 this year

New_york_jets_4831
This is a team that nobody expected this type of start from. Nobody except the coaches, players and myself. I am a firm believer in "you play to win the game" and so when I saw the offseason moves that were made, I thought we could have a great year. This is a team of talented...

Grading Titans-Oilers ... er, Jets-Titans

New_york_jets_4376
The Jets are one of seven 3-0 teams, and every long-suffering Jets fan has a right to be giddy with the Rex Ryan Effect, but please don’t say yesterday’s win was some sort of character-testing, letdown-avoiding victory. Yes, it was a gritty performance, and all three phrases...

Quick thoughts on Jets 24, Titans 17

Kerry_collins_c82c
1. Gutty, gutty win by the Jets. To go from a 14-0 lead to a 17-14 deficit to a 24-17 victory ... it shows something about the team's resilience. 2. That was a nice touchdown run by QB Mark Sanchez, and he heard plenty of kudos from teammates, but he might want to think about...

Mark Sanchez studies the offense like a vet

Philadelphia_eagles_v_4f4d
FLORHAM PARK, N.J. — Mark Sanchez’s studious nature won’t allow him to kick back and relax Tuesday nights, not with the game plan for the upcoming opponent sitting in his e-mail inbox. While some players may take the last few hours of their weekly day off to get better acquainted...

Another winning report card

St_louis_rams_4edd
Well, now Mark Sanchez knows how Eric Mangini felt all those years, getting the look-away treatment by Bill Belichick for the post-game handshake. At least Belichick had a reason to be angry with Mangini, who blew the whistle on him in the SpyGate scandal. But what did Sanchez do other...

Game Recap: HC of the NEP Takes a Dive, 16-9

First, the bad news.  No sacks, Lito Sheppard, Kris Jenkins and Donald Strickland are banged up, and the Titans, next week’s opponent, is 0-2 and desperate for a win (by the way, they lost today because they gave up 34 points to the Houston Texans—the guys who couldn’t score...

Key To The Season: It All Starts In The Trench

New_york_jets_c537
I planned to write a follow up article on my 53 man prediction, however with Mike Tannenbaum seemingly hopped up on sugar, the roster changes daily, so if I were to write about the 53 man roster, it would likely be old news in hours. Over the past few days we have seen players signed...

Finding Thomas Jones: How His 2008 Success Affects Mark Sanchez

Gettyimageproxy
Much like Michael Turner did for Matt Ryan with the Atlanta Falcons in 2008, Thomas Jones will have to be the running back every defense has to respect. But before that happens, the 31-year-old running back has to prove he's actually capable of shouldering the responsibility on...

"Make Mine" Marvel Calls it a Career

Marvel Smith is done after nine years with the Steelers, hanging it up before he ever played a regular season snap with the 49ers, the team he signed with in the offseason. It's an unfortunate, if hardly unexpected development. The left tackle has been dogged by severe back problems...
