I am gonna be rooting for the Jets Sunday, since the division is so weak, and we still have a tiny chance at playoffs. But realistically, I don't expect us to make it, the next 2 games will probably leave us at 1-5, and I don't think we climb out of that. So with that said, it's more about the future now. We have some positions where it would be nice to evaluate some young talent during a losing season. If I was the GM, I would want to replace Winters and Colon with Dozier and Aboushi, to get a sense of how they can play when it counts. Colon is old, and Winters is pretty much a bust by this point. Watching Dozier and Aboushi play could give us an idea of whether we need to draft/sign a guard or two next year. Also, I would want Reilly and IK to get playing time at OLB, mostly at Pace's expense, but Coples could give up a few snaps too. It would be nice to know what we have with these 2 young linebackers. Maybe plug in Edds and Bellore instead of Harris too. The problem is, of course, that Rex is 1) coaching for his job (at least in popular opinion), and 2) like any coach, will want to play the players that give him the best chance to win, which are veterans. So unless Idzik tells him behind the scenes that he will be back next year, it's hard to see how that situation will play out, if we lost the next few games and our season is done.
You guys make me sick,we have 12 games left and we are already talking next season?Enough of this bullshit the season just started,we are 1 win away from being tied for first place in the division.We have a chance to go 6-0 in the divison and I think we can do it
Are those pom poms in your left hand and a huge half smoked joint in your right? The rest of the AFCE may suck, but that doesn't mean the Jets suddenly got better because of it. There will be no WildCard team coming out of the AFCE this year so, unless we take the division, we're going home. We have mediocre Wr's and Oline. Our Qb is a work in progress and I'm being kind with that assessment. Our defense, despite its lofty rankings, still can't get a big stop and is not providing either TO's or points. This is NOT the year for the Jets to make a run. From the way its looking, try 2016 at the absolute earliest. Even that depends on which direction the Jets go. If we stay defense centric, you can write off 2016. We need fresh, high level talent on offense. Not 4th, 5th, 6th or 7th round afterthoughts. The Jets have to make Offense the top priority or the status quo will be maintained for better or worse.
Dude we aren't as bad as our record says we are,we should be 3-1 right now.I feel like we can beat anyone.You guys are over reacting to being two games out of 500,you'll see on Monday morning when the jets are 2-3
To quote the sainted Parcells: "you are what your record says you are..". This just isn't as good a team as we may have thought we were out of the gate. Yeah, we lost some close games but the bottom line is, we lost. Blame the Refs if you want but is anybody outside of NY/NJ/CT gonna care? Let me answer that for you.. NO. If the Jets beat SD and I'm not saying its impossible, that would go along way towards getting this team turned around but the issues still remain and until they're addressed, the results will be marginal. We'll win a few games, but we'll lose more than we'll win because there are holes in this roster that were not addressed via the Draft or FA. If Rivers doesn't shred this secondary, Manning certainly will and Brady/Belichek always saves his best for us. After that, although less formidable, we're not playing teams from the NCAA. Every team on our schedule can be beat, and conversely can beat us. Right now, 8-8 would be a miracle.
Yeah I know it, but the AFCCG spiked Koolaid is finally beginning to wear off a bit. The Rexaholics are coming out from their 6 year bender and starting to see what really is instead of what they want to see. There will be the diehards of course. They are the ones that excuse every and anything this team does because that what a "real Jets Fan" does.
8-4 is definitely doable where we're sitting right now. We have to get the offense moving and cut down on the mistakes on that side of the ball.
I wonder how much crack you smoked before you posted this and how you possibly think this will happen
I'm all for letting young players play and let them learn through experience at all positions except oline because offensive linemen mistakes can lead to other players getting hurt, more specifically QBs.
There's no reason the Jets can't win the division. As bad as the Jets' problems are, every team in the division has them. If the Jets beat the Patriots twice, a tall task, but a doable one if they keep playing like they have against Miami, Minnesota, Oakland, and Kansas City, then the division is there for the taking. The Pats schedule is much harder than the Jets schedule.
