The Jets are #1 on defense and #1 in rushing after their highest ranked rivals this season (aside from the Pats) avoided playing them for real since in almost every scenario, if the Pats beat their opponent, the Colts would play the Jets and the Bengals would, as well.
What would our stats be if we played the Colts and New Orleans, the two toughest teams we've faced, in our last two weeks, and they played us the exact same half-assed way?
We would be 12-4. We would have some road wins. By the logic some mediots use to pimp the Jets, they should use the same to pimp every other team. For example, the Titans would be 10-6. The Jaguars or Dolphins might have made the playoffs with 9-7. In either case, does that automatically make those teams the most likely to win the Super Bowl?
