We are on to the JETE

[SHOWTIME15]

The Jete scored 38 points yesterday against Green Bay so we cannot take them lightly. Lots at stake in this one:

-Pats win or Houston loss: 2 seed (and playoff bye)

-Pats win and KC and LAC loss: 1 seed

-Pats loss and Houston win: 3 seed

I hope the passing game finally wakes up, but with rumors of Brady’s knee I’m a bit worried. I am willing to bet we will rely heavily on the running game for the remainder of the season.

On defense if we can shut down Robby Anderson we should be ok...

Probably going to be Todd Bowles’ last game and the Jete are in play for the 3rd overall pick.

You got it right in your post but in your thread headline: it's the Jete, not the Jetes -- like sheep. Also on to, not onto.

It's a battle to see who's the best QB in the division.

While we are on the subject, can anyone explain the origin/history of the JETE name?

2017 draft. Tony Richardson spelled it incorrectly. Thank you Tony!

Read the OP on the Jets Suck thread, it's in the itemized bullet points.

In case it hasn't been mentioned recently, thank you for that thread. I am never depressed after checking it. Very entertaining.

Tune, what is the proper pronunciation of "jete"?
Is it "Jeet"?
Or "jet-AY"?
I kinda like je-tay as that's the French ballet term. Makes me picture them in tutus...
...On second thought, that's not a good thing.
Oth,jeet rhymes with sheet... more appropriate.

Ok, let’s make sure this holds true for NYJ next week.

I say jeet and you are correct to reference it rhyming with sheet, a la "The Jete played like sheet." If you say jet-ay, the French connotation makes it sound kind of classy, yet we all know there is nothing classy about the Jete.

I wonder if the JETE will mail it in. One more win they could be picking 8th or 9th instead of 3rd or 4th...

Because I had daughters who did dance classes, my understanding is a jete is a dance move.

Not to take the Jete lightly, but the Packers - out of the playoffs and with an interim HC - may have throw in the towel.

Darnold hasn't been significantly better than Josh Allen, and the Jete offense overall hadn't been setting the world ablaze since week-6 until yesterday.

Meanwhile ... the JETE defense (thru wk-16):

25th in passing yds allowed - 15th in passing TDs - 17th in yds/att
26th in rushing yds allowed - 24th in rushing TDs - 21st in yds/att

Significantly worse than the Bills, across the board.

OTOH ..
2nd in 3rd-down conversions allowed .. 6th in RZ TDs allowed

It's also a crap football team. But your definition is pronounced differently so the two can't be confused.

Jete was a shortstop that never dove for a grounder in his lifetime.

I mean, is it like a reclusive animal I can see on Natgeo? Something that other animals beat up on for fun? Just trying to get a mental picture.
