flgreen Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 New York Jets prediction: 6-10 August, 28, 2013 Aug 28 10:15 AM ET By Rich Cimini | ESPNNewYork.com The rebuilding Jets will miss the playoffs for the third straight year, and it will be curtains for Rex Ryan. New general manager John Idzik gutted the roster, hoping to create salary-cap room for 2014. In the process, he forgot to import enough talent to compete in 2013. The uncertainty at quarterback, coupled with a difficult first-half schedule, will leave them out of contention by Halloween. The second half of the year will be all about trying to determine whether Geno Smith is their future. Ryan is a defensive master and has enough leftover talent to build a respectable unit, which should keep them in most games. But the offense? It could be hard to watch. Marty Mornhinweg is an experienced playcaller, but he simply doesn't have enough weapons for his West Coast offense. They'll trick it up, using Wildcat and pistol formations -- smoke and mirrors in an attempt to camouflage the lack of talent. The lack of stability at quarterback will doom the team and could divide the locker room. Smith has talent, but he's raw and immature. Mark Sanchez, public enemy No. 1 in New York, has too many scars to succeed. He needs a change of scenery. No one said rebuilding is easy. Predicted finish in AFC East: third Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt39 Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 This team is desperate for a guy who can sell jerseys on offense. A Ray Rice, AJ Green...a player like that.

MexiRoll6 Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 Which is what happens when your top picks are always either DBs, DL guys or Mark Sanchez. Exactly. Quinton Coples we could have done without. Would have preferred a WR or TE that could stretch the field offensively, but T-Rex supplied us with Derrick Mason and Plaxico Burress while letting Cotchery, Edwards, Thomas Jones walk. Rex has ignored the offense at every turn, which is one reason I think he is half a HC at best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JiFtheOracle Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 Seems about right. 6-8 wins is about where I see this team at seasons end.

lamont_jordan_rules Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 outside of QB we have enough guys to HTF if there are no major injuries problem is - there are always injuries & QB is pitiful at least DL will be fun to watch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maxman Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 This is a 10 win team people. Maybe more. My official prediction is 9 wins. But as long as Mark's Sanchez holds up I think this could be the season. That's right. Super Bowl. I have been watching the Jets for a long time and I am really feeling good about them right now. Things are lining up nicely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jacked4JetsFB Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 I just don't see this as a 6 win team. I think the worst case is 8-8, unless Marty is just awful. Sparano was attrocious, as bad as Sanchez was last year, which was historically bad, Sparano may have been that bad as an OC. Even if Marty is just competent, not even good, that is a huge upgrade even with sh*tchez. The defense should be better than last year IMO, so I think Marty alone is worth at least an extra 2 wins. I think this team is going 9-7 or 10-6. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As far as the 9 defensive players...what percentage of those picks were in rounds 1 and 2? And I said this lack of star caliber players on offense predates Rex.

Most peculiar This is true, although you also have to consider that most of that space wasn't freed up until long after the initial FA rush (e.g., all of the money they gained from the Revis trade). Of course there could be an entirely different debate about whether the Jets could have done that all earlier in order to make more moves in FA, but they didn't seem to be all that concerned with doing so.
