Cry me a river

Pretty good… Pretty… Pretty good. The focus all week in Jets land has not been on the teams loss to Jacksonville last sunday; it hasn’t been on the freefall that has seen the Jets lose 4 of the 5 and face first place New England this week.  Cry me a river…...

D-pressing

Well, at least you can’t blame this one on the kid. In a must-win, playoff implication, fresh off the bye, ready to rumble game, the Jets hit the snooze bar and didn’t realize the 1pm start against the Jacksonville Jaguars actually meant the game would begin at 1pm. Looking...

Beware of the Jaguars

Looking at the AFC Standings (wins by Cincy and San Diego), there is no doubt that Sundays game against the 4-4 Jacksonville Jaguars is a big game. Big big game. (have I said Big enough?) . With a 24-21 Win against the Chiefs, in a blacked-out game, the Jaguars come to New York with...

Well isn’t that special…

8d
100 and 101 are apparently better numbers than 104. The focus all week in Miami was Ted Ginn Jr.’s loss of the starting WR position.  Good thing Miami didn’t take the kick-return responsibility as well.  Ginn ran not one, but two kick-returns for Touchdowns. The first...

Ground Control, we have liftoff

It started early, and it was loud….  No, not the Black Hole. Sunday was all about the Jets defense (Welcome back Calvin Pace), getting to JaMarcus Russell early and often, and forcing the Raiders QB into making mistake after mistake, until Tom Cable had seen enough and subbed...

Sunday, Sunday, Sunday…

The day can’t come soon enough for the New York Jets. What began as a dream is slowly turning into a classic Jets nightmare. For Rex Ryan, the goal was to turn around the franchise, beginning with the Defense, and have the team become respected and feared throughout the league. For...

Get cha popcorn ready…
