Haha it had to be done.
I was thinking how last week Jets fan boy Albert Breer was saying that if his team could beat the Pats, they'd be one game behind then have an easy schedule ahead and could run the table.
In the afterglow of Thursday night, I re-checked their slate and yeah, they could run the table — they could conceivably lose out:
- vs Arizona (slumping but still playing tough)
- @Jax (see Houston game), Tebow homecoming
- @ Tennessee. But ESPN is glad to have this one for MNF
- vs SD (ditto for NBC Sunday night; flex anyone?)
- @Buffalo. Tough team.
Even if they don't lose out, 2-3 or 1-4 is very realistic.
“Even Fireman Ed is off the grid because it is so bad,” said Deegan, who publishes JetsInsider.com, which includes the biggest online forum for Gang Green fans. “The fans on our message board are taking it very badly and looking for everyone’s jobs.”
Deegan’s search for blame went beyond usual suspects like Johnson, Ryan and Tannenbaum. He even wants a MetLife Stadium employee canned for setting off fireworks after Gang Green’s field goal to end the first half, which cut New England’s lead to a mere 35-3.
“I hope that guy is the first guy to get fired,” Deegan said.

In a way, it's almost sad to see them lose their religion about another crop of messianic figures... Herm Edwards, Eric Mangina, Chad "Ow! that was a 15 yard throw!" Pennington, Wrex Ryan, the Sanchize, Tim Teblow, Revis the Occasional Island... the list goes on...
Every off-season, they get their off-season lombardi, every season, they get their hopes dashed... and every few years, it just becomes so manifestly obvious that they're broken that they threaten to start to figure it out again.
Of course, they're always a draft pick or two away from another offseason super bowl, but moments like this are dangerous. If they ever figure out that they really, really do reek, we may have an actual rivalry on our hands again.
But until then... it's comedy gold
I still got us in the playoffs.
