Pats-Jets

[wader-dad]

Its not easy being a Jet fan. I am happy they won but obviously a hollow victory. Almost had a stroke with 1 second left.

The Jets may be sort of a wildcard type quality team that gets knocked out in a round or two of the playoffs- if we are lucky. I would like to live to see the day when the Jets are a top 4 team in the league. If we blew you guys out after being up- then maybe I would feel differently.

But we still don't have a pass rush unless we blitz and we don't seem to be able to cover the underneath stuff. Our linebackers are big but slow. The offensive coordinator does not have any plays to respond to blitzes. Plus we have maybe one year of Farve -then we are nowhere. If you had your starters it would have been the usual outcome.


I can't believe we drafted Gholston (who will probably be one of the big busts in Jet history --and that is saying alot) and not Mayo.

It was a game to remember.

Don't sell yourself short, your team is improving just as ours is(or was till the latest injury bug)

I am old enough to remember being in my friend Lee Stone's backyard in November 1965 when his older brother tells us to come in and watch this quarterback the Jets got from Alabama. They were playing the Boston Patriots and - I looked it up just now- the Jets beat the Patriots 30-20. 43 years ago yesterday. Babe Parilli was the Boston QB and Nance and Garrett were the running backs. Interesting that the Jets were up in that game 24-3 and Boston came back to get within 27-20 before the Jets Jim Turner kicked a field goal to end it.

So I have seen it all and I sort of believe that Namath made a deal with the Devil to win SB III and we got the curse now.

I am like most old Jet fans- expect the worse but live and die with the team. I had seasons tickets for 18 years and only missed a few home games. J= E= T =S Jets Jets Jets

I admire your loyalty
NIB sticks with his Jets also
oods are eventually they'll win one again, but it is so hard in the NFL for things to go right to even get there let alone win it. with Brady out this year and Indy having trouble, this year might be your best shot unless Brett comes back again.

Babe was a damn good quarterback also.
