Re: Win tomorrow puts the jets in the cellar once again
I expect the Patriots to win and this will put the nail in the coffin for the Jets......but let's not get ahead of ourselves. Jets played us VERY tight at home -- this one is in their house. The Jets/Rexy know the Patriots as well as any team. Patriots have some key injuries (key injuries that just happened -- meaning less time to work with alternatives and get adequately past them). This is a November division game against a team whose very 2012 lives depend on winning this game. I just don't know about this one.....
IMHO the big deal in this game is not Gronkowski especially if Hernandez is back. The big deal is Talib. Will he provide that solid play on one side of the defensive backfield, allowing a smaller field for other pass defenders to cover, and force Sanchez into throws he shouldn't throw? Or will Talib be another member of a porous secondary and Sanchez can put plenty of points on the board .........and the only chance of a Patriot victory is scoring 35? We shall see in less than 24 hours.....
