Maybe that “missing” piece is already in house and for once WE can have a break out player... Possibly McKnight, Maybin or some other young player can be this.
im predicting we have a better season than what all these analyst are saying... I think we will be lead by a strong defense and our Safety position will be solid ... a pass rush that we have been lacking will emerge. McKnight and Hill will have a good season and we will really see Mark Sanchez rise
Without going game by game: Rex's Defense will be near the top and will shut down & dominate half the teams we play, handing us 8 wins. Sparano's Offense will play well at time, struggle at others and lose half of the remaining 8 games, giving us 4 wins. Defense wins 8 Offense wins 4 Jets 12-4
vs BUF - W @ PIT - L @ MIA - W vs SF - L vs HOU - W vs IND - W @ NE - L vs MIA - W @ SEA - L @ STL - W vs NE - L vs ARI - W @ JAX - L @ TEN - W vs SD - W @ BUF - W 11-5, wild card berth. There's just no chance we beat Jacksonville or Seattle. Typical trap games
Im thinking 9_7. I have very little faith in the offense, Im always netvous when the offense takes the feild and our defense is bound to have anx offday.
Week 1 vs Bills - W Week 2 @ Pittsburgh Steelers - L Week 3 @ Dolphins - W Week 4 vs San Francisco 49ers - W Week 5 vs Houston Texans - L Week 6 vs Indianapolis Colts - W Week 7 @ Patriots - W Week 8 vs Dolphins - L Week 10 @ Seattle Seahawks - W Week 11 @ St Louis Rams - W Week 12 vs Patriots - L Week 13 vs Arizona Cardinals - W Week 14 @ Jacksonville Jaguars - W Week 15 @ Tennessee Titans - W Week 16 vs San Diego Chargers - L Week 17 @ Bills - W ----- I guess that puts my prediction at 11-5... Didn't put much thought into my choices, and didn't keep track of record as I was going through it, just hunches/gut feeling/pure guesses
Week 1 vs Bills - W Week 2 @ Pittsburgh Steelers - W Week 3 @ Dolphins - W Week 4 vs San Francisco 49ers - L Week 5 vs Houston Texans - L Week 6 vs Indianapolis Colts - W Week 7 @ Patriots - W Week 8 vs Dolphins - W Week 10 @ Seattle Seahawks - L(i really dont think we will lose this one i just didnt wanna hear everyone say im crazy for a 12-4 record) Week 11 @ St Louis Rams - W Week 12 vs Patriots - L Week 13 vs Arizona Cardinals - W Week 14 @ Jacksonville Jaguars - W Week 15 @ Tennessee Titans - W Week 16 vs San Diego Chargers - W Week 17 @ Bills - L

Man, I thought my 9-7 or 10-6 was generous. Seeing a lot of 11s and 12s here. Obviously I hope you guys are right but if we're going to get there the offense is going to have to step up huge, the defense looks extremely solid but not sure the offense will be able to get the points in those tight games.
Is it stupid to say that Week 1 is a must win? Having the chance to be 0-2 after Pittsburgh would be disastrous and would open up the flood gates for the Tebow worshippers.
Week 1 is really important there is no denying that. I will be shocked if we lose though. We match up well with the Bills. If we are healthy going into that game as we should be we will beat them.
Jets have lots of questions this year, more than usual. It starts at Qb. Last year the question was whether Sanchez would improve significantly. He did not, and now the Jets have Tebow, and that has the potential to,well, ruin the whole season. Meanwhile there's not much more than a hope McKnight can spell Greene, who is not an every down back, the OC is new, the OL is one injury away from disaster with Hunter still at RT. The D could be better, but the LB's are still slow. Based on the foregoing, I have a hard time seeing how thie team will navigate through the schedule much better than last year's team did. As for last year, I don't get these predictions of teams stepping back. Yeah that's possible, but predicitng it now? On top of that some teams like the Cards were much better as the season went on last year. That means something to me, more than just their overall record can tell you. And as some other realists have noted, the Jets historically have had trouble winning west coast games. Anyone predicting wins against the Seahawks and Chargers, let alone the Niners as well, is not paying attention to that history. I also remember the Jets were lucky to win that second Buffalo game. And on paper are not likely to beat the Pats. Going 3-3 in the division right now almost looks optimistic. So, let's start with 3-3 in the division, and losses to the Niners, Steelers, and one of Seattle or San Diego. I also see the Texans game as a loss. I would not be surprised to see them in the Champ game, possibly even the SB. I also can't see wins against both Arizona and Tennessee, if one of them. On the other hand the Rams game should be a win, along with Jville and Indy. That seems to end up at another 8-8.
This will be part of the pressure the Jets will face from Tebow. He stays in his box if the Jets are winning enough. But even a 0-2 start would be enough to get the Qb controversy going.
So you think we are going to lose every game against a playoff team. Texans, SF, Patsx2, Steelers, Chargers. We should win atleast 2 of those games but if we are going to seriously be a playoff team we should atleast go 3-3. Texans are a team we have handled well in the past. Revis on Andre Johnson. Shutting down Foster is the issue there and there D is much improved. We are at home though. SF is a team that looks a lot like ours but runs the ball better. Pats we should be able to split with again and win our home. Steelers always have a solid D but they aren't unstoppable. Chargers are another team we can handle with our corners. Good teams lose to bad teams every year in the NFL. The Jets should be able to win a few of those games.
Actually I did not specifically predict a loss to SD. I said the Jets were unlikely to win both in Seattle and San Diego given their poor history with West Coast trips. On what is based your prediction that the Jets will beat NE once this year? The Jets have no answer for their TE's. Unless Brady is injured, I expect two more losses to the Pats, just like last year. The Texans are a better team than the one the Jets handled in the past. Look, 8-8 is the best I can see right now. That even assumes a 3-3 division record, which could be optimistic.
