I'm not getting carried away. I'm taking it for what it was. A great win at home where both units looked very good. It was a dominant win against a division rival who made the playoffs last year, and has a QB whose had legit NFL success. That's all. I'm not under the impression that this is going to catapult the Jets to a great season or anything. 

Unfortunately it could catapult us into the #3-6 pick instead of the #1 pick. ?

Sure whatever you say. So every 7-9, 8-8 team with less than a franchise QB should just tank the season in hopes of getting the 1st or 2nd pick. Yea, ok. 

Boyitellya, those mediocre seasons with Sanchez, Geno, and Fitz at the helm sure were magical, weren't they?

Wouldn't get carried away. Cutler is playing with a new cast, was basically retired-out of shape- lacked preseason reps - and the Fins have traveled half way around the world, dealt with a hurricane and were on the road vs. a divisional opponent that has historically given them fits for decades. Ho hum. Inevitably  they're going to win a few games. #1 pick still a real possibility.

I don't think anybody is getting carried away here. Cutler was terrible as was the entire Fins team. Still doesn't take away from the fact the the jets played very well.

It's GOOD to be BACK.

Didn't say they didn't. Just think the Fins were super flat. We are not that good. Nowhere near as 'dominant' as some think this 'win' was. JoeWillie12 is absolutely correct when he said MCowan should never have even been signed. Hack and Petty should have played this year. Starting A 40 year old journeyman QB is a total waste of time and ruins any possible chance of seeing what you gave in either of these two prospects or getting a top draft pick.

Same can be said for the 15-20 other teams every year in the mediocre category. Would be great league if every one of them went into tank mode. Wouldn't it? Jets went to 2 straight AFC championship games with Sanchez as QB. I guess we should have tanked those years too because we never had a real franchise QB anyway. Right?

If Petty and Hack can't beat out McCown chances are they aren't good enough.

McCown isn't the future but he's not a bad NFL QB. Been one of our better players. That was a pretty dominant win, they scored their only points with the last play of the game. Not sure what game you were watching.

Nah, tank starting in 2012. Those 09 10 teams actually had some talent.

But they still didn't have a real franchise QB so they should have tanked anyway. Damn the 2 Straight AFC title games.

Not the point whether Hack or Petty could win the spot. They need experience and live action reps to see if they are the future. I could care less what McDick did. I have no emotional investment in this scrub. Fool's gold who will cost us a top rated QB in next years draft.

Just supporting his viewpoint which is 100% agree on regarding a QB that has absolutely no future with this team.

Shut up with this. Plenty of us said this same thing. I still think McCown is a waste of time, as is not playing Hansen today and Stewart just getting in this game.  Jets missed plays but for the most part were fine. Young team learning to play together.

No doubt, but for folks of a certain age and geographic locale, it'll always hold a nostalgic place in their heart.

Plus, in my and Crusher's defense, Pizza in the DC/NoVA region is often worse than sh*t anyway, even the so-called "NY Style".

There's good pizza in Charlottesville VA by Va U. 3-4 hour drive from D.C. Pizza Pizza ? 

[Warfish]

I should admit it now, publicly.....

...while I grew up on L.I., and I DO know what good Pizza is (Vincent's), I have to admit, here, openly....

.....that I really enjoy a cheap ass Little Skeezers Pan Pizza.

It's like white trash Sicilian. 

[joewilly12]

Just got home from the game what a day at MetLife had free MEZZ seats and access to the Touchdown Club I like it the WIN helped out the day. 

Hard pressed for any Jets fan to root for your team to lose...IT IS WHAT IT IS.......

Wasn't a full house and a lot of Miami fans but the Jets fans there for the most part supported the team today, way too many fans not interested in football and just there going through the motions nothing like the old crowd.

I'd like to point out that this is the only official game day thread I've ever made and we dominated. You're welcome true Jets fans. Tankers, you also are welcome.

Nice job pointman thank you but remember we played the Dolphins and they really suck.

It's to early in the season for me to think like that. I'd love Darnold or Rosen but you have to let that play out in my opinion.

I saw some of our young players who we want to be key pieces for a long time look good. I can't root against them or ask them to play poorly until next year. Guys like Adams, Williams played great on D. We need that and will need that going forward. If it leads to some wins than that's a good thing IMO.

Definitely great to see these young kids shine. Key word YOUNG. Not some over the hill 40 year old QB leading us to a meaningless win. We are not the George Allen Redskins vying for a playoff spot.

We're not gonna go 0-16, but this team thru the first few weeks looks better coached for the most part. Solid win. 

Thank you!!

We have posters saying in effect in this thread that "yea we are not as good a we played today, it might have looked like a well played and coached game but it wasn't" all so that they can justify their tanking narrative!!

This is the sort of thing that is humorous as well as embarrassing.  I call it the FF infection of the game that results in an anything goes, lose out (borderline cheat) and a sort of imbalance in fans' actual thought process that is ruining the game. 

This is why one fan actually suggested in this thread that if the team wasn't going to lose out on "all their games" the way he thought that the Jets should he was going to go root for another team!!

Simply amazing to me.....
