The 68 D blew 1 late game lead and in 1968 the O and STs of the Jets allowed an incredible 70 points yet they were still able to lead that team to the title though they got more offensive help than the 09 team. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saw Jenkins later that year (after ACL year) on a rent a car shuttle in Charlotte airport. He was with his wife. He was much shorter than i thought he would be. Nice guy.

Grandy Posted July 10, 2019 Share Posted July 10, 2019 Like I said in the other thread, I never got to see the 68 Jets so I'll go with 09. #1 ranked defense in the league, and we had Revis post arguably the most dominant season by a corner ever. They pulled Sanchez who had a low 60 rating with almost double the INT's than TD's to the championship game. Let's also not forget guys like Harris, and Kris Jenkins on that team too.

I *think* Gatineau was called because hypothetically, coming in at an angle, he had a better view of the ball while the DB was bull charging head down up the middle.

It was hilarious watching the DPOY Woodson and his overrated Packer defense give up 51 points to Arizona in their only playoff game (if I recall Warner threw more TDs than incompletions in that game) while Revis continued to blank receivers like Ochocinco and Vincent Jackson while intercepting both Palmer and Rivers in back to back weeks. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What you fail to mention in that second half is that Shonn Greene left after the first series so we had no threat of a run game (Thomas Jones was hurt and shot) against 2 premiere pass rushers in a dome with a rookie QB. We had all the momentum, the O scored 2 TDs and we had a 14-6 lead then the D created a TO and we were up 17-6 late in the first half. What does the D do? Allows a 4 play, 80 yard TD drive in less than a minute giving Indy all the momentum going into the half down only 4. We got the ball to begin the second half, had a nice drive that ended with a missed FG. Indy takes over and 3 minutes later the lead was gone for good and Indy could have kept scoring if they wanted to. They mercifully stopped at 30. You think it's fair to expect a rookie QB (or really any QB) to have to lead his O to more than 30 on the road to win? We were led by our D, our D failed in the biggest game of the year.

That actually supports my primary point, that the offense was anemic and did nothing in the second half to help the defense that was facing an elite QB at home, in a dome. I completely agree that we would've won that game had we not lost Shonn Greene, which again, supports my point. So thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honestly breaking down entire unit performances over the course of a season by looking at one half of football seems silly. Lito Shephard was the weak link of the defense and Peyton exposed him. The offense didnt do sh*t in the second half either. Shonn Greene left the game with a booboo if I remember correctly. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never mind the fact that the game is designed to score points, and there's tons of time left on the clock. I don't have the stats on hand, but I'd pointed out in one of these debates years ago, in most of these playoff games, we'd held the opposing offenses to below their averages for the season, and we'd scored below the opposing defenses averages for the season. In other words, our defense did better than should have been expected and our offense did worse. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we should be so lucky that Darnold turns into a Top 10 type QB in this league then it makes running an attacking defense so much fun. Putting the other team down by two scores in the 4th Quarter of games really lets you unleash some things on a team forced to pass the ball. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think we would have won even if Greene stayed in, I don't think our O was built to win a game scoring 30+ points in a game like that. Most offenses aren't. I know NE did it last year but I wonder how many teams have won road championship games needing to score 30+? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZachEY Posted July 11, 2019 Share Posted July 11, 2019 Let's pretend you were given this circumstance: You have a very strong defense. You are facing the leagues #2 passing offense in yards, #1 in TDs, and #1 in passing 1st downs. Top 10 in total points and yards. You have an 11 point lead with 2:00 left in the 1st half. You won't score another point. You will only get 9 more 1st downs in the 32 minutes of football. So, who feels like there's a good chance you win this game?

Guess Sheppard must have sucked too because Garcon and Collie both went off. I know Sheppard was dinged, so maybe his sucking wasn't an all year thing.

Peyton was throwing absolute lasers past tight coverage by our nickle and dime DB’s. We played well that game. Peyton played lights out in the second half. I was honestly believing we were going to the Super Bowl in the first half. That TD right before the half sucked the air out of the room I was In with 200 other jets fans. It went silent and I think we all knew it was about to go SOJ in the second half. So sad.
