Jets vs. Browns

But the jets ran for almost 250 against a good JAG d last week so one game examples aren't very insightful.

But some of those runs were just wacky stupid mistakes by the Jags. I think one was were they thought the runner was down but he was not and ran for a 75 yard TD.

But I agree. This year is wacky and I have no idea what the game will be like.

No matter what they root for, the Jets season is always over in week 5.

Watched a condensed version of this game. What a disaster. Browns should have won this easily. So many terrible self-inflicted mistakes. Neither team is very good at all.

That said, McCown showed more accuracy than anticipated. He's not a franchise guy, but he's clearly brought some level of stability to the Jets. I could see him having a 300 yard day, but I don't think the game will ever be in doubt. Yes, the Jets have played us pretty closely in the past, but the discrepancy in talent and coaching should be clear. I expect our first blowout win of the year.

Begrudgingly, yes.

It also seems like the Jags D is so preoccupied with rushing the passer, they abandon running lanes. So I'm not sure the admittedly good Jags D is really that good vs the run though.

You "begrudgingly" want your team to win. With "fans" like you, the Jete don't need enemies.

He doesn't F'ing know. This season has screwed up his whole trolling tactic. He started with "We're tanking so we're sucking on purpose" but now that they've beaten a few "Juggernaut" franchises he's not sure if he should talk **** or not. He's conflicted. He fears the commitment one way or another.

He has decided to passively troll the neutral line between winning and losing. IOW it's the same ole 8-8 ****.

"more top safeties in the draft for 2018!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"...it's always sunny skies in Jeteland

I hated the back to back safeties on draft day but have come around, they have masked a lot of the poor LB play and elevated the play of the corners.

The Jets are a below avg team this year that will finish with 5 or 6 wins and should be no match for the Pats who are looking quite average them selves.

These Bowles team seem to match the intensity of there opponents by playing up or down to there level. So I can see this turning into a good close game watch, but I doubt it, I can see the Pats ringing up 40 plus points and If they are lucky the Jets may score 24.

I always look forward to Pats week.

I thought you died !!! Welcome back!!!

The Jets are one of the worst 3-2 teams in the history of the NFL. If we don't beat them comfortably I will be very concerned about this team. I know, it's a division game and all those other excuses, but that offense (just like Carolina's) is terrible.

I don't see 40 happening without the Patriots' OL playing better than they have. Tampa isn't noted for their pass rush but even they got pressure on Brady.
Jules absence providing the gold standard option for getting rid of the ball quickly probably makes the 40 mark even more unlikely.

Your 2017 highwater mark is 23. IMHO a guess of "may score 24" is probably more accurate than you realize when factoring in the Patriots D having pitched only one good game (Tampa) this year.

Obviously your Jets are unlikely to win a shootout. It's just not how the Jets are built. And if the Patriots have gotten their OL issues even partly resolved I think scoring 30+ is likelier than not (If the Patriots do score 30+ I really like our chances). But if the Jets can put up in the vicinity of 25 (definitely possible) and the Patriots' OL struggles for too much of the game(again possible given some of their recent performances)? Unfortunately the chance of the Jets getting the W is very real.

This isn't to say I don't like the Patriots chances overall. All things considered I think we'll get the W. But this is a division game - it could end up a slugfest with an unexpected score. And again if the Patriots OL struggles the Patriots are, unfortunately, a bit too beatable for my liking .
