Geez. The NY tabloids are even being harder on the Jests than we are. Awwww, too bad, but the article is a nice way to start Saturday morning.
"Ryan became a cult hero to Jets fans craving a championship. But there’s only so many times you can make a promise, not deliver, and then expect anybody to still pay attention. Even if Ryan’s guarantee for the 2011 season was greeted with the proper amount of skepticism, it was taken for granted the Jets would at least get back into the playoffs. But the Jets are done — even in a league where things change so drastically from week to week."

Something that fascinated me about the Jets/Broncos game:
On two particular plays, it seemed like the Jets (or Schottenheimer in particular) were trying to emulate Brady and the Patriots.
The first was the 'quick WR screen' that Brady ran on them during the no-huddle when a WR was uncovered. I can't remember the last time I've seen Sanchez yelling so much at the line, then throwing to the WR while everyone else is playing run. I know the Patriots aren't the only ones to do this, but again, I really don't remember seeing Sanchez ever run this audible before.
The second was the failed direct snap to the RB. I don't remember seeing the Jets run that in the past. It seemed very odd because it seems like a play you need to practice regularly and can be very easy to screw up, so I was surprised they would have added it to the gameplan on such a short week.
I don't know what to make of it, but it almost seems like Schottenheimer is grasping at straws with his offense right now.

They need to get creative. Their running game is in the bottom 1/4 of the league, their D is shotty and their QB cannot carry an offense.
