It is as the old saying goes, "The cream always rises to the top".
While the jets were partying and getting DUIs, other teams were working hard.
While the jets were eating cheeseburgers and having snacks, other teams were working hard.
While the jets were making tv shows and talking to the media, other teams were working hard.
Is it really any great surprise that their ability to execute seemed to tapper off as the year progressed? "Who will help me plant the wheat", said the little red hen! At the Meadowlands there was no response, they were too busy making movies and eating cheeseburgers.
The question is, are the jets capable of working as hard as the colts will work in preparation for this game (imo, no)? Or will they have to rely on the Manning playoff choke factor to back in to another playoff game (imo, this is the only chance they have).
