All the pre-game noise about descension in locker room, their offensive struggles, etc etc...

The way I see it...

Jets said they were going to run the ball, and they did, and that was critical in trying to control TOP and keep Brady and the offense off the field.

The numbers might not dictate it, but Jets played pretty well on D, and keeping Patriots in check, and keeping the game within reach for most of the game.

It was a game at half time, and everybody here knows it. The opening second-half drive was a killer for the Jets, a mistake by Smith in zone protection, and a hell of an effort by Revis to make a play to try and save the drive.

That pass to Branch, that was a BS call, I know you'll agree, Branch was switching hands, when contact was made, Branch didn't even have possession of the ball, that call should have never been overturned.

The officiating once again bounced the way of the Pats, it's tiring to see the officials bail the Patriots out, and they did on several drives, while killing the Jets on a couple of their own drives.

Pats made some critical in game adjustments against Jets defensive packages that were designed to play the pass, additional DB's on the field, and less up front on the LOS, Pats made the adjustment and ran the ball. As I said earlier, the Pats set up the run off of their passing game, the Jets had to respect the passing game, credit to the Pats for running it and executing. Some would say they gashed the Jets run D, no, not true, because Jets didn't have their run D in many of those situations, they had their pass defensive packages on the field.

The Jets came to play, their running game showed up, and the offense showed some signs after a poor week last week. Mangold returning was huge, and immediately played dividends in the running game, and in pass protection.

The defense needed to make a play on that final drive, and they fell short, credit to the Pats.

It was a battle, round 1 goes to the Pats.

It's a long season, it's about who is playing the best at the end of the season.

Could you explain the fumble rule and cite sources? Then I'll acknowledge the officiating bias.

Jets didn't lose cuz of the calls, they lost because they got beat.

If this was a real congrats thread I'd keep it on the Main forum. But this is a backhanded way of telling us that the Patriots are lucky and the ref's are on our side.

captain insano

how was the branch call bs? his knee was down when he was touched. doesnt matter what he was doing with the ball. you should do your crying in private.

You guys got an INT gift right before halftime.

It was a close game, but that's to be expected from these two teams. Your team has issues going forward. Your defense isn't what it used to be and Sanchez has regressed. A playoff birth isn't a sure thing for you guys at the moment.

I was surprised the refs even called it a fumble on the field. Was a little close after replay but pretty easy call.

A good start of a thread title followed by the whining and *****ing and excuse making typical of a team and it's fan base that is all talk.

You got lucky that Hernandez dropped an easy TD at the end of the half, that's why it was a game at the half. And Revis gets away with holding constantly so please save the refs crap.

The Jets ran well on a couple of drives but their run D is a joke. Basically an average team with no depth that should be 1-4 but for the grace of Romo.

Deus Irae

You're full of it on the officials argument, and you know it. Without the punt return, the Jets lose by 17.

Quit whining and hope for better luck in New York.
