Same Old Jets, They Haven't Improved

[reflexblue]

Same Old Jests as in they haven't improved. The jests team Now is the pretty much the same team that started out in the beginning of the season, they haven't gotten markedly better as the season has gone on. The Pats on the other hand have, and decidedly so.
Both the Offense and Defense have gotten much better since the start of the season, the same can't be said for the Jests IMO. I am not worried about beating them on Sunday, starting to think that the december beat down was indicative of the difference between the two teams......Thoughts

You don't have to be a detective to figure out why. Watch Sound FX or many programs during the week and you'll see how Rex Ryan believes you coach a team. To him, you get all of your talent in the offseason and then spend the season talking about how great you are. After the Jets squeaked by teams like the Texans and Broncos, he was quick to celebrate and tell them how great they are, and then boast that they are the best team in the NFL.

On the contrary, not sure if anyone saw the Patriots locker room after their win over the Packers. It was somber; the players looked like they'd lost the game. Belichick basically told them they are finished if they play like that again.

And this, folks, is the reason why the Jets were the better team at the beginning of the year, and the Patriots are the better team now.

Interesting statistic on Mark Sanchez:

First 5 Games: 8 TD Passes, 0 Interceptions
Last 11 Games: 9 TD Passes, 13 Interceptions

Mark Sanchez versus the Indianapolis Colts in the AFC Wildcard Round:

0 TD Passes, 1 Interception (01/08/11)

The downward spiral continues for Mark Sanchez.

Yep. Defenses have adjusted and he hasn't.

The intellectual insight from Jets fans is lacking, as usual.

Re: Same Old Jets

Here's another gem on Sanchez.

What do Sanchez, Massaquoi and Randle El all have in common?

They've all thrown 1 TD in the last six games.

Re: Same Old Jets

Whats even sadder than that are my memories of living in Southie back in the late '90s, walking around in a Chrebet Jersey and not getting any grief because nobody really cared about the Pats. I almost felt bad for Pete Carroll, Drew Bledsoe, and the rest of the fellas....I think Patriot Football was located somewhere in the collective conscience of Boston somewhere between BC Football and the Pawtucket Sox.

You had two dynamics going on back then

One- Tuna was coaching the Jets. At that point in time, he walked on water here- even after he left. In 1998 and even 1999, the Jets were a better run organization than the Pats. I know I was a bit jealous.

Two- By 1998 and 1999, folks were resigned to the fact that the Pats were in decline. The sentiment against Pete Carroll was swelling.

Not sure about what others say but Chrebet was a helluva player.

This is all you have to remember, just this one date....1969.

Yes the Pats were definitely irrelevant in 1990's, with all those playoffs team compared with those amazing 1-15 Jets teams!!!

Re: Same Old Jets

Not sure you can consider it same old Jets..back to back playoff appearences with a young QB and new HC isnt bad. Jets havent had an 11 win season in a while (sadly). That being said, this isnt same old jets and it will be a tough game Sunday. Dont look for another blowout though

True. Same old jets that gets a free ticket into the playoffs. To me, teams that HAVE to rely on other teams to get into the playoffs, probably shouldnt be there

Free ticket last year? yes..but hey they made the most of it right? How did they get a free ticket this year? They had 11 wins..that was better than the rest of the field..last time I checked they didnt beat anyone resting there starters this year?

You say they probably shouldnt be there, they said they PROBABLY should have been, seeing as they were 30min from the superbowl.

If multiple teams didn't completely fold in the last minute the Jets could be a .500 team or worse.

Re: Same Old Jets

If the Jets didnt finish strong and decided to quit last minute, they could be a .500 team or worse.

Here, i fixed it for you

I guess when they lost to the bears and only got in because the Jags lost.... maybe thats why we feel that way.

Ok? And then they beat the Bills the next week so it wouldnt have mattered. The week we beat the Steelers at 1pm, the Ravens lost the 4pm game later on, and that is how they clinched thier playoff birth. Did the Steelers back in too

yea but we beat the bills and that would have been a automatic entry so I don't get your logic?

Yeah but you HAD to beat Bills to get in, the Bills.....Bills? of course your team couldnt beat a team with a winning record to get in sorry, my fault. Forgive me

Free tickets, if Jags had won, you would have had to wait another week. And remember which Mark played that game against the Bills
