Bears Week

The Jets have the 6th best run defense per DVOA and ypc. Their proficiency there - particularly compared to their abominable pass defense - is indisputable.

That said, I agree with your sentiments when it comes to the offensive coaching. NE obviously had some issues to start the season, but they've been excellent for the past three weeks, despite a patchwork OL for two of them. There really isn't much to complain about.

Yea, I will give Jets credit - they aren't bad vs the run. I think I am just a little surprised going back and seeing the Pat's had the second least rushing totals vs them this season (Raiders had the least) considering we have ran the ball on them 30+ times in single games quite a few times, had good yardage, and scored rushing TDS vs them since 2012. But then again, it was with Ridley and Ridley wasn't available Thursday night. They stopped the run vs us, they may of forgot we had TB throwing the ball as he was fantastic Thursday night, it's hard to get in stride when you don't have the ball much but TB was very efficient and looked sharp.

Really worried about our Pass rush. Cutler is good when he has time and a bunch of giants to throw the ball to. How do we get to him without leaving somebody like Bennet on Pat Chung 1 on 1. Who's watching forte out of the backfield if we're bringing heat? If we're not blitzing and cutler has all day to throw were in trouble. I think we might have to get into a shoutout and I'm not sure if we can make enough stops. Offensively if we don't kill ourselves getting behind the chains wth bad mistakes I think we'll be fine.

I agree, I'm worried as well. I definitely feel we need to run the ball this game much better than last week because Alshon/Marshall/Forte is no joke and I would like to see those guys on the sideline a lot Sunday. We can predict game plans and all that good stuff but at the end of the day those 3 are play makers and it doesn't matter who is on them in todays NFL ... they will make plays. I don't think it's on them, I think it's more on Cutler, those 3 consistently show up on a weekly basis year in and year out.

I don't think anyone in the NFL can completely shut them down, all you can really do is try to limit them as much as you can because they are beasts and they are definitely going to catch some balls.

Gronk 2 TDs..VERY vulnerable across middle...very

Did anybody noticed Matt Forte leads the NFL in receptions? Kind of impressive IMO.
Also, 1st player in league history with 50+ receptions and 100+ rush att thru his team's first 7 games.
Gotta be careful with this guy.

Good luck and enjoy the game.

@Brady_to_Moss had a pair last week vs the NYJ and couldn't get any takers, so I'm hoping things go a bit better for you this week. There is not a "catch all ticket thread" on the boards as of yet, although it's something I've suggested in the past.

I'd be all over these tix for sale if it weren't a double digit hrs drive for me.

I'll buy you a beer and chime in with some solid observational humor also willing to offer my 2017 birthday wish.

I ended up selling them...but on craiglist and they could have been jets fans! Still can't believe no one on here wanted them.

Double digit drive? It's called a plane

Supadummy..

Thanks everyone. I was able to sell the extra, and am on the bus up from New York right now (it's only 1:44am), for my third trip to the Blade this season.

That said, it'd definitely be really cool if there were a face value ticket swap board on here. I've lurked on here for years (hence the 2011 registration), and every now and then come across extras or need some advice picking some up.

I think that Ian may be concerned about this. As I understand it, the Patriots want the secondary market to be at face value through their own site.

And I too would have been all over your offer ... if I weren't here in Cambridge with a pair of tickets (from the season ticket waiting list) getting ready for the game!!! GO PATS!!!!
