jetscrazey Posted September 13, 2015 Share Posted September 13, 2015 Colts are weak at the point of attack, so the Jets need to run the ball and control the clock. I have no doubt the Jets D can stop the Colts running game. Bowles needs to cook some blitzes up to get Luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Larz Posted September 13, 2015 Share Posted September 13, 2015 here is the media narrative for the week "the colts started slow, but came on late, they were just rusty. now they are mad and will take it out on a jets team that got lucky against the worst team in the AFC" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JetPotato Posted September 14, 2015 Share Posted September 14, 2015 I hate getting ahead of ourselves, especially given this franchise's history. But... If they win Monday and can build some momentum and improve as a unit with time, you're suddenly going to see a very different perception of this team nationally. In fact, if any AFC East team is able to rise unexpectedly and threaten the Hooded Sociopath and his Band of Misfits even a little, they will instantly become America's darling. Hardcore football fans are just waiting for someone to punch them in the mouth as so they richly deserve for what they've done to the game.

The Troll Posted September 14, 2015 Share Posted September 14, 2015 We are a better team than Buffalo. Will be tough to win in Indy, but their defense is bad and they will be without T.Y. Hilton. Andre Johnson is done. Was last year. Still is. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jgb Posted September 14, 2015 Share Posted September 14, 2015 The positive about Fitz is you can win any game with him. Sure he'll throw up turds now and then but unlike Geno, Fitz is capable of rising to the occasion and winning any given game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ohio State NY Jets fan Posted September 14, 2015 Share Posted September 14, 2015 Jets can win this game, the Bills provided the recipe, let's hope it translates to next week, I think the key differences are; the Colts are a different team at home and had no tape on Taylor so game planning not as good as they should be able to prepare for Fitz, the Bills and Jets have similar talent and the ball bounced their way, so as long as the Jets avoid turnovers and study that game tape they should be very competitive...

Jetster Posted September 14, 2015 Share Posted September 14, 2015 Looks like TY will be back. Jets have to control the ball & keep Luck on the sideline. Here's the bottom line, if we let Luck run around like we the the Browns QBs run for 1st downs we won't have a chance but the truth is that no one has talked about today is that the Bownies Oline is definitely top 5 in the league. They are tough brawlers whereas the Colts Oline is soft comparitively. Great practice for our front 7 yesterday vs a stud Oline. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Crusher Posted September 14, 2015 Share Posted September 14, 2015 This. Sanchez, Geno, even Pennington were all the game-losing INT at the worst possible time types of QB. We need someone that just doesn't fire nails into our own coffin. Every QB is going to commit turnovers, it's whether or not they lose us games that were otherwise winnable that will dictate a change in our fortunes. Or a top tier bad ass true #1 wide receiver that just turns around and snags the ball away like me going for the last doughnut when they do.

Augustiniak Posted September 14, 2015 Share Posted September 14, 2015 the league is very even right now. guys like brandon marshall make a big difference. and not having turnover machines as qbs makes a huge difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jetsfan80 Posted September 14, 2015 Share Posted September 14, 2015 I'm not putting any stock whatsoever into Indy's loss to Buffalo. Rex Ryan's teams always come out blazing in that Week 1-3 range then get exposed later. Indy entered a buzzsaw going to Buffalo. Now they return back to their cushy dome. I know their defense is brutal, but Luck will toy with our secondary on national TV. No chance they start out 0-2. This is just a brutal Week 2 matchup for us.

Jettington Posted September 14, 2015 Share Posted September 14, 2015 The Colts as a team are extremely overhyped as media darlings 2015. Luck is very good, but the team as a whole is less than remarkable. They likely won't have TY Hilton and may not have Gore. Put Revis on Johnson, make Luck win with anyone else and I don't think he will be able to if Fitzpatrick plays a mistake free game. Score 28 and I don't think Luck will be able to score more.

NYs Stepchild Posted September 14, 2015 Share Posted September 14, 2015 The Colts are a soft team. The Jets are going to be the kind of team that will shut you down then run the football down your throat. Old school football... and it just happens to be the exact blueprint to beat a soft finesse team like the Colts. The Colts are a very poorly run franchise. I started paying attention when they traded for Richardson. Idiotic. I watched all of Fitz' games last year and noticed AJ is a shell of himself. Most of their other moves have seemed just as ignorant. Like they're being run by the fans. They have Luck and he has to win on his own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is all reasonable and may very well happen, but being able to run the ball is the best counter for a prolific passer. You cannot have any doubt we can run the ball on Colts soft serve defense? Do you? This is a 50/50 game at worse at this point. We control the clock and win the turnover battle this is a win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colts will be favored, and they should be, but with Fitz and a defense that actually seems to care about fighting for loose balls, this team has an "any given Sunday" feel to it that I haven't felt in a long time. Yes it is early, but it seems that the adults are in charge now, and any week we have a puncher's chance with competent coaching and QB. With Geno you just knew there were games we had 0% chance to win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless Luck can play defense and use a helicopter to avoid the pass rush, we have a very good chance to win here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
