Jets' Turnovers 2012 - take the ball away!

The Jets are a turnover waiting to happen - they have a +1 turnover ratio but it could be so much worse.

They've fumbled the ball 9 times in six games - 1.5 times per game - but only lost four, so they're quick to recover the ball.

Passing - Sanchez has thrown 6 interceptions in six games (Brady has 3 INTs). Sanchez' six picks have come on just 177 throws. He throws a pick every 29.5 attempts ( Brady throws a pick every 81 attempts).

Today, you can expect two or three turnovers, minimum, from the Jets. With the Patriots leading the league (tied with the Falcons) at +10 in takeaways, Patricia and Belichick should dial up a very aggressive defense.

This should be a week where the defense attacks and just flat-out goes for the ball. The defensive backs should stop chasing receivers and start going for picks. Seriously, do we expect Mark Sanchez and his dismal 70.9 passer rating to burn the Patriots with that set of receivers? Do we really?

A crappy passer against a crappy secondary...comedy of errors today maybe? It won't be pretty.

crappy passer + crappy secondary = incomplete pass + PI = chain movement.

After what Russell Wilson did it wouldn't be shocking. Although he at least had Sidney Rice. Sanchez has shred this defense before...seems like he either kills it or is absolutely dreadful.
