flgreen Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 NFL Nation reporters predict 3-13 for Jets Rich Cimini, ESPN New York Jets reporter Judging from the reaction on Twitter, it appears my 8-8 forecast for the New York Jets was hugely unpopular. Turns out that I'm the optimist, if you can believe that. The Jets got zero respect from the other NFL Nation reporters. They're apparently not buying into their big-money offseason because, scanning the game-by-game predictions from the reporters that cover teams on the Jets' schedule, the win total is a mere three. One worse than last season. The predictions say the Jets will beat the Cleveland Browns, Washington Redskins and Buffalo Bills -- and that's all, folks. The score in the Jets-Browns opener will be 9-6, according to Browns reporter Pat McManamon, who writes, "The Jets, like the Browns, are trying to win this season with defense. These offenses may have folks switching to Hulu by the second quarter. New York’s secondary is too talented for a Browns offense trying to piece itself together, especially in the first week." The Jets' uncertainty at quarterback is mentioned in six of the 16 predictions. My colleagues around the league must think Marty Mornhinweg still is calling plays on offense because they have the Jets scoring more than 21 points in only one game -- a 23-19 win over Rex Ryan's Bills, of all teams. That would be ironic, considering the Bills undoubtedly will field the greatest defense since the '85 Bears -- a Ryan prediction waiting to happen. The most lighthearted forecast comes from Patriots reporter Mike Reiss, who offers: "Here’s what we see in the crystal ball: His confidence rising after signingDarrelle Revis away from the Patriots, Jets owner Woody Johnson shares with reporters after the game that he was impressed with the way Patriots soon-to-be-free-agents Nate Solder, Chandler Jones and Dont’a Hightower looked and thinks they might be good fits in New York next year." He predicts a New England win, 24-13. Don't you love the offseason? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt39 Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 I doubt we'll be good, but this stupid team pulled off 4 wins last year. Thinking more in the 6 to 7 range. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GimmeShelter Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 The schedule is soft. Any type of competent QB play (barring major injuries) should get us to 8 or 9 wins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Savage69 Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 The schedule is soft. Any type of competent QB play (barring major injuries) should get us to 8 or 9 wins. I agree with the additions the team made and the 4-12 soft schedule I would be disappointed with less then that.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PatsFanTX Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 I agree with the additions the team made and the 4-12 soft schedule I would be disappointed with less then that.. The addition of 3 30+ year old FA's will take the Jets from 4 wins to 9 wins? That 4-12 soft schedule is the exact same schedule as the Pats, except for 2 games.

Larz Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 people are lazy. an NFL teams reputation is 100% on the QB people think jets = geno geno's reputation stinks, that all this proves most fans, reporters don't know the jets signed harvard or that he played well recently Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BroadwayJets Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 A healthy Fitzgerald with an OC who isn't afraid to let his QB throw the ball in the redzone will lead to TDs instead of stupid ******* QB draws on the 4 yard line. We'll be good this year. 3-13 is moronic. Should win 9. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spoot-Face Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 Jags have a lot of talented young players on their team from all their recent top 10 picks. I'm not saying that there isn't hope for that team in the future. I just don't think they are THAT good right now, nor are we THAT bad right now. I'll believe it when I see it. I actually think the Browns and the Bills will be tougher games than the Jags. The only thing that the Jags have over the Browns and Bills, IMHO, is possibly a better QB situation.

nycdan Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 At the moment I'm enjoying watching the Mets make a mockery of every pundit's predictions. Making W-L predictions in the NFL before the draft is about as dumb as passing from the 1 yard line with Lynch in the backfield. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Powpow Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 It all depends on who QB's this team. If Fitzy is at helm, I think we can pull off 9-10 wins. If they stick with you know who, it will be a disaster 5 games in and they wont recover the year and go 6-10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vinny16 Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 No idea what the final record will be, but I find it ridiculous for anyone to predict that 3-13 will be it. There's no way that the Jets, after shipping the clown show off to Buffalo, putting adults in charge, upgrading the defense into potentially one of the very best in the league, and significantly upgrading the offense, will finish a game worse than that "product" they had the nerve to put on the field last year managed to produce.

Ken Schroy Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 I just don't get all these predictions and we haven't even had the draft yet. I will make my prediction in the summer. Most of these other guys are just flipping a coin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That 4-12 soft schedule is the exact same schedule as the Pats, except for 2 games. I was excited about landing Revis, Marshall and Cromartie at first because they're all good to great players. Then I realized they will all be 30 or over by week 1, and that will cause the Jets to lose 13 games this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Revis Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 3-13 is a joke, who gives a rats ass what the "experts" say. We were ridiculed for selecting Sheldon Richardson, we're one of those franchises in the league that until we win an SB people will always doubt us. Jerry Reese has made miserable move one after another for years (paid Dwayne Harris a kick returner 7 mil) and not a peep on the Giants Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
