A couple of bad news posts for Jets fans on Florio's new site - Pace Suspended - New England Patriots Forums

First the big blow:

Calvin Pace Suspended Four Games | ProFootballTalk.com

Looks like their best OLB will be out for September.

Gholston's Summer Was "Not Encouraging" | ProFootballTalk.com

And his replacement looks to be showing that last year was no fluke.

BTW, Ryan's defense is all about putting pressure on the QB. If the Jets' best outside pass rusher will miss a month and their first round disapointment looks to be quickly heading to All Time Bust category, this could be a very bad start to the season for the Jets. Couldn't happen to a nicer team.

At least Crowder can say that eventhough Rex Ryan doesn't know who he is, Ryan at least knows where he could find Crowder on game day. He can't say that about his own player in Pace.

Wonder if Ryan will open his big mouth again, looks like a classic case of what goes around comes around.. it's that karma thing.

I wonder if Kerry Rhodes still thinks they'll be the best defense in the league.

You make it like it's bad news for the Pats.

Interesting that there's info here on that news, but nothing yet on Jets "Insider".

Sorry, bad grammar there. I fixed it in the title.

I hear that Ryan is actually proud of Pace because eventhough he failed the drug test, he did take the test swaggerishiously and Pace plans to have fun with his time off. Those seem to be the priorities this offseason with the Jets.

I though the Jets' Ultimate Goal was .500.

Actually, it might not be that bad. The Jets are scheduled to play the Pats, Titans, Saints, and Texans to start the season. I wouldn't have been surprised if they started the season 0-4 or 1-3 even with Calvin Pace in the line up. Personally, I think all four of those teams may be better than the Jets.
