Our O is still not getting TDs on a regular basis, and there's blood in the water on D with all the injuries. Meanwhile the Jesters are getting more familiar with their team identity considering all the personnel changes, so they have reason to be confident.
I surely hope BB & co. can come up with a good one this week.
This year's team reminds me of an automobile windshield. It keeps getting chips and cracks, but there's a thin film holding it all together.
Do you want to talk about how the Pats dominated the Bills more than the Jets did a week earlier and the Jets faced a Bills offense that didn't have Marshawn Lynch for 3 quarters? Yet, the Bills were legitimately in it in the fourth quarter and actually had the ball longer and had 5 less yards than the Jets. The Bills were more desperate yesterday than they were a week ago. We can look at a lot of individual games and get different analysis.
I can also argue the Pats are getting more in tune with their team identity too. People thought the Jets had turned the corner a month ago with opening up the offense vs. the Cards. After turning the ball over like crazy against bad teams like the Bengals, Raiders, and Chiefs; they are now going back to a conservative offense. Are they finding their identity or are they finding their indetity for the moment?
I think you can argue the Pats have found their identity more than the Jets because they have been doing the same thing week after week and barring a few mental mistakes last week, it has been working very well. The Jets' offense took the conservative approach for the first time since the Pats game yesterday and I don't know if it would have worked nearly as well if the Rams didn't cough up the ball 5 times. The week before the Jets won very differently because the Bills were somewhat successful on offense (292 total yards, 61% third down effiency, Trent Edwards completed 68.6% of his passes, the Bills had the ball for 30:02).

Re: Jets full of themselves after 2 wins in a row (link)
Of course Jets players and fans are going to be very confident right now. They've won three in a row, including a road victory over the team that was the division leader at that time, and now the biggest blowout in the NFL this season. The Jets came out of the game with no injuries while the Pats lost yet another starter. Regardless, it's now up to the Pats to bring them back to earth and feeling like they did after losing to the Raiders three weeks ago.

Agree to the last points but didn't the Bills miss more D starters against us than the Jets?
Re: Jets full of themselves after 2 wins in a row (link)
The Jest defense is playing great and their offense is coming on because of Thomas Jones - not Lord Favre. The Pats, I think will contain the run game, leaving the offense in Favre's hands. This will either bite the Pats - or feed the Pats.
The Jets haven’t been in first place this late in the season since 2004, when they won their first five games. Guess who knocked them off in Game 6? New England, 13-7, at Foxborough.

“We’re a contender now,” nose tackle Kris Jenkins said.
As they had done against Buffalo, the Jets’ defensive players had sauntered, not sprinted, out of the tunnel before the game. They had walked next to one another, as if they owned the place. Jenkins said this was the defense’s swagger — walking the walk.
In Smith’s place was Abram Elam, who had returned an interception 92 yards for a touchdown against the Bills. This week, Elam forced the fumble that Pace returned for his touchdown.
Pace does not have sprinter’s speed, but he did manage to rumble down the field faster than Elam had the week before.
“The difference between me and Abram is I held my form,” Pace said.
“On the highlights, they had to speed his up to get it in. Mine, they can just ride out.”
Cornerback Darrelle Revis said: “We know we’re a good football team. We showed that. Now, we’ve just got to continue to play like it.”
They beat up on one of the worst teams in the league now they are world beaters, LOL. Favre should of been picked off twice yesterday but Rams DB's can't catch. Bills should of beat them the week before as well but they made too many dumb mistakes.
