I predict the ENTIRE 2013 SEASON on June 6th.

[T0mShane]

There is no need to watch the Jets this year, because I have broken it down for you right here in an objective, analytical manner.

Week One:

Jets: 24

Bucs: 13

If you give Rex eight months, he'll prepare a defensive gameplan to stymie even the best quarterbacks. The Bucs begin this year as the most overrated by the media team in the league. Their coach sucks, the quarterback is average, and the defense has holes all over it, despite the spending spree.

Mark Sanchez will start because Geno just won't show enough over the summer to prove that he's ready, and Idzik will want to protect his psyche. Sanchez will finish 14-22, 165 yards, one TD, one INT. He'll challenge Revis one time, with an incomplete pass down the right sideline to Stephen Hill.

Player of the Game: Chris Ivory--26 carries, 142 yards, 2 TDs.

Week Two:

@Pats: 48

Jets: 14

The Pats will remember having to squeak out the first meeting with the Jets in 2012, and they'll come out motivated to beat the sh*t out of a Jets team on four days rest.

Sanchez will start out hot, riding the confidence from his Week One showing, but ultimately he'll break down trying to keep up with Brady, who will torture Dawan Landry and Antonio Allen down the middle of the field. Sanchez will throw two TDs, two INTs, and the Jets running game will be held to 76 yards total.

Player of the Game: Demario Davis--12 tackles, 1 sack, PD.

Week Three:

Jets: 28

Bills: 3

If there's one thing Rex Ryan knows how to do, it's humiliate rookie quarterbacks. He brutalized both Andrew Luck and Ryan Lindley last year, and he'll do the same to EJ Manuel this year. It'll be ugly.

This will be all about the defense. Mo Wilkerson and Quentin Coples will each tally sacks, and Cromartie will pick off Manuel twice. Chris Ivory and Mike Goodson will combine for 200 rushing yards, and Stephen Hill will get his first TD of the season.

Player of the Game: Cromartie--Two INTs, TD return.

Week Four:

@Titans: 7

Jets: 16

Jake Locker is Tennessee's Mark Sanchez, and this is the game where he finally gets benched. The Titans will be tough, but not tough enough to overcome Locker's suckness.

Player of the Game: David Harris--14 tackles.

Sanchez will have another meh game and finish the first quarter of the season completing 58% of his passes, with 6 TDs and 4 INTs. The fans won't break out the pitchforks, however, because the team will be 3-1, and the offense will be able to move the ball on the ground with a creative inside-out running game. The defense (despite the Pats massacre) will have people excited, with Wilkerson, Richardson, Coples, and Barnes providing a ton of pressure on obvious passing downs.

Week Five:

@Falcons: 36

Jets: 13

The Falcons will want to show off at home on Monday Night Football, and will pound the Jets senseless. The Falcons will use this game to announce that they're ready to compete for a title, how they want the respect they deserve, yadda yadda. All in all, a bad situation for the Jets. On the plus side, Santonio Holmes elects to make his season debut.

Absolutely nobody on the Jets has anything resembling a good game. The Falcons are tough to beat at home, and on MNF? Forget it.

Player of the Game: Mo Wilkerson, who is able to exploit the Falcons' lack of a RT until he blacks out from being on the field for 60+ snaps.

Week Six:

Jets: 17

Steelers: 24

The Steelers never found a groove in 2012, and will be looking to bounce back in 2013. Off of the Falcons debacle, the Jets will be coming home to face the boo-birds for the first time all season, with the majority of the venom aimed at Mark Sanchez.

Sanchez has his first real horrible game of the year, throwing three picks and getting sacked four times (two by Jarvis Jones, which will hurt Jets fans deeply). Santonio Holmes has a mini-meltdown during the game when Sanchez overthrows him on the one pattern he chose to run hard for. The defense will be stout, but rookie Leveon Bell will break 100 yards rushing. Coples, back to playing full-time on the DL, will get 1 1/2 sacks on Roethlisberger. Stephen Hill will get drilled by Ryan Clark and miss the next four weeks.

Player of the Game: Coples--2 sacks.

Week Seven:

Jets: 21

Pats: 31

Gronkowski returns from injury and nabs two scores in a by-the-numbers performance for the Pats. The Jets fight hard, but can't overcome a sluggish offense. The calls for Geno are loud and continuous, but Sanchez puts up a decent third and fourth quarter (two TD passes) to hang on to his job for another week.

Sanchez hits Goodson, Hayden Smith, and Santonio Holmes with TDs, much to the chagrin of many Jets fans who were anxious to see Geno Smith get some PT.

The Jets drop to 3-4, and the media takes out the knives they've been sharpening for over a year. They helped set Rex up, and now they're ready to cut him down. WFAN is flooded with Geno must start/Rex must go calls. Good times in JetLand.

Player of the Game: Mark Sanchez-- 22-35, 289 yards, 3 TDs, 1 INT.

Week Eight:

@Bengals: 24

Jets: 14

The Jets are completely unafraid of playing in Cincy, but the Bengals have convinced themselves that they're ready to make a run.

Sanchez plays decently (16/24, 216, 1 TD, 0 INTs), but the Bengals use a Pats-like two-TE offense to torch the Jets' safeties. Tyler Eifert continues his Rookie of the Year campaign by catching 8 passes and 2 TDs.

Player of the Game: Santonio Holmes-- 6 catches, 109 yards, TD.

Week Nine:

Jets: 20

Saints: 48

Sean Payton sits down with Rob Ryan to create a game plan that absolutely torches his brother's defense, and it's a mess from start to finish.

Drew Brees has his way with the Jets' nickel and dime defenses, and the Jets offense doesn't show up until late in the fourth. The first paper bags show up in the crowd. Going into the Bye on a five-game skid, the Jets are under fire from all corners.

Player of the Game: Joe McKnight-- 92 yard kick return TD.

Bye Week

They held out as long as they could, but Rex finally comes out and says that Geno Smith will be the permanent starter moving forward. There was much rejoicing. Sanchez's stats actually aren't that awful--57% completions, 14 TDs, 8 INTs, 3 rushing TDs, 3 fumbles. The positives for the Jets at the Bye: Chris Ivory is healthy and is on pace for a 1200 season; Wilkerson, Richardson, and Coples have combined for 18 sacks, and Dee Milliner looks like the real deal; the left side of the OL (Brick, Winters, Mangold) is dominant. The negatives: Stephen Hill continues to be an injury nightmare; the TE position is a black hole, and the right side of the OL (Howard, Ducasse/Colon) is awful.

Week Eleven:

@Bills: 9

Jets: 21

The Geno Smith Era gets off to a good start, with the team responding to the change at QB. Smith is uneven, but commands the two-minute drill beautifully to end the first half, and the running game takes over the second half.

The Jets defense punishes EJ Manuel again, and there are already whispers in Buffalo that he's a huge bust. Geno Smith (14/25, 186, 1 TD, 1 INT) looks the part and gives the whole franchise a spark. His 26-yard rushing TD in the fourth quarter to put the game away is a thing of beauty.

Player of the Game: Smith

Week Twelve:

@Ravens: 34

Jets: 14

There is zero championship hangover in Baltimore, and they give Geno Smith his welcome to the NFL moment, sacking him five times and picking him off twice.

This game will be notable not only for Geno taking a beating, but also for Santonio Holmes going on IR with a hamstring, leaving Geno Smith with Clyde Gates, Jeremy Kerley and a gimpy Stephen Hill at WR.

Player of the Game: Smith, who takes his beating like a man, and comes back in the fourth quarter to lead two late TD drives.

Week Thirteen:

Jets: 17

Dolphins: 14

The Dolphins come in at 7-4, looking toward a playoff spot.

Geno Smith leads a late TD drive to bring the Jets all the way back from a ten-point halftime deficit. Sheldon Richardson has his breakout game, roughing up Ryan Tannehill with two sacks and a FF. The Jets running game returns with a vengeance, as teams start accounting for Geno Smith's willingness to spread the ball around, as well as scramble.

Player of the Game: Richardson.

Week Fourteen:

Jets: 28

Raiders: 6

The Raiders engage in full-on Jadeveon Clowney tanking early on. The first mentions of "GenoMania" are witnessed in the media.

The Jets offense starts fast, and the Raiders lay down. Geno Smith throws two TDs, Ivory runs for one, and Demario Davis returns a Terrelle Pryor for a score.

Player of the Game: Ivory--103 yards, TD

Week Fifteen:

@Panthers: 24

Jets: 13

Cam Newton takes the next step this season to emerge among the elites. The Panthers come in looking to lock up a playoff spot, and do.

Chris Ivory tweaks an ankle, but Mike Goodson and Bilal Powell pick up the slack in a losing effort. Geno Smith takes another beating.

Player of the game: Dee Milliner-- holds Steve Smith to two catches.

Week Sixteen:

Jets: 27

Browns: 21

The Browns will be surprisingly tough this season, but the Jets will be resilient all year.

Brandon Weeden, coming in leading a surprisingly powerful Browns passing game, gets his head beat in by the Jets' front four, as they play most of the game in a 4-3 front. Trent Richardson rushes for 115 yards, but earns every one of them. This will be Geno's coming out party, and he plays much of the game from the shotgun, completing TDs to Hayden Smith, Jeremy Kerley, and Joe McKnight.

Player of the Game: Smith

Week Seventeen:

@Dolphins: 10

Jets: 7

Tons of intrigue going into this last game: Can Rex get them to 8-8?; Is Geno Smith the real deal? Can they knock the Dolphins out of the playoffs? Answers: No, Yes, No.

The Dolphins defense comes to play, and they bottle up Geno Smith and the Jets offense behind Cameron Wake's three sacks and four Dolphin interceptions. A very Jets ending to the season.

Player of the Game: Null

Jets MVP: Chris Ivory-- 986 yards, 12 TDs.

Jets Pro Bowlers: Mo Wilkerson (11 sacks); Antonio Cromartie (4 INTs, TD); Nick Mangold; D'Brickashaw Ferguson.

[Bugg]

_{7-9 is not likely. This is at best a 5 win team at best.}

[Matt39]

And Rex is retained or fired?

[T0mShane]

_{7-9 is not likely. This is at best a 5 win team at best.}

I think it will take some injuries to drop below six wins. There are just too many bad teams in the league. Vegas has them favored in five games as of right now.

[T0mShane]

And Rex is retained or fired?

I'm biased because I'm done with him, but I think he's a dead man walking unless he pulls off a miracle season. I don't think a 7-9 does it, personally.

[stugotz81]

Can you please predict the preseason too? I'd rather not watch that either unless its gonna be worth it. Thanks in advance 

[The Gun Of Bavaria]

I'd rather watch cells of Syphilis and Gonorrhea fight each other over a host through an electron microscope than the 2013-2014 N.Y. Jets.

Da-yum.  That's bad.

Damn.

 

Is that original?

[SayNoToDMC]

You got too much time on your hands dawg

[SenorGato]

You know those ****ass Astros went and took Mark Appel #1 overall?

 

Cubs got Kris Bryant THO, so not too bad.

Wanna see my 2014 mock offseason?

Dale Sveum was the worst third base coach I ever saw.  I knew he would be a rousing success as manager.

[PatriotReign37]

I'd rather watch cells of Syphilis and Gonorrhea fight each other over a host through an electron microscope than the 2013-2014 N.Y. Jets.

 

 That sounds just like the Geno vs Sanchez competition.

[NJ]

Dale Sveum was the worst third base coach I ever saw.  I knew he would be a rousing success as manager.

In defense of my Cubs, Jack - they are actually doing a viable rebuild - so the jury's still out on Sveum.

 

 

On TS's predictions - I think he's got it down pretty well cept I see us splitting with the Bills and losing one to a crappier team in either the Titans or the Raiders. 

[FloridaJetsFan]

Player of the Game: Mark Sanchez-- 22-35, 289 yards, 3 TDs, 1 INT.

This thread is devoid of any inkling of credibility by this one statement. Lock and Ban please.

[Twin]

yes

[flgreen]

I'm biased because I'm done with him, but I think he's a dead man walking unless he pulls off a miracle season. I don't think a 7-9 does it, personally.

Actually that was a great job T0m.

 

If the season goes as you depicted it, Rex stays

[bitonti]

Actually that was a great job T0m.

 

If the season goes as you depicted it, Rex stays

 

if Rex can get this team to 7-9 with it's talent level, it's a great coaching job. 

[faba]

OK basically you are saying we will get throttled by any good team in the league. Without a good QB play and offense hard to argue

[j4jets]

_{7-9 is not likely. This is at best a 5 win team at best.}

 

We won 6 last year. Are you saying losing Revis (who played next to no games last year) and Keller (who was injured even when he played the handful of games) is going to result in us winning fewer games? Or you think without Bart Scott, this team is doomed?

[Jetsfan80]

Week One:

Jets: 24

Bucs: 13

 

If you give Rex eight months, he'll prepare a defensive gameplan to stymie even the best quarterbacks. The Bucs begin this year as the most overrated by the media team in the league. Their coach sucks, the quarterback is average, and the defense has holes all over it, despite the spending spree.

Week Three:

Jets: 28

Bills: 3

If there's one thing Rex Ryan knows how to do, it's humiliate rookie quarterbacks. He brutalized both Andrew Luck and Ryan Lindley last year, and he'll do the same to EJ Manuel this year. It'll be ugly.

 

 

For a guy who wants Rex fired, and thinks he will be, you sure give him a lot of credit here, as well as the W-L column.  No chance a 7-9 wins gets him canned.

 

And before you respond that these teams you speak of suck, remember this.  Being able to beat inferior competition consistently means two things:  1) You bring more value to the table than probably two-thirds of the league's coaches, and 2) you aren't coaching an inferior team, which means that even in your down years, your team is at least mediocre.  Again, that's better than about two-thirds of the NFL's coaches out there.

 

If Rex coaches a team like this, with a QB transition and so much roster turnover, to 7-9, for as much as you've ripped him and the talent he's assembled, he's closer to Coach of the Year than he is to getting fired.

[j4jets]

Yep.  And we won 6 with one of the worst QB seasons of all-time.  Imagine what we can do if Geno Smith comes in and lights up the league to the tune of below average QB play.

[slats]

I agree.

 

If Rex wins 7 games, and Geno Smith looks like an NFL starting QB in Mornhinweg's system, Rex gets extended.

[Jetsfan80]

I think it will take some injuries to drop below six wins. There are just too many bad teams in the league. Vegas has them favored in five games as of right now.

 

But I thought WE were supposed to be one of those bad teams, Tom?  You've been talking like we're headed for 3-13 all offseason.

[yanks9596]
