### Jets \ Raiders -- The Official Game Thread ###

[Maxman]

The Jets have won two in a row. The Raiders are here from the west coast for a 1pm game, that is never an easy task. Beachum is playing, Hewitt is playing. The Jets looked like a different team when they both returned to the field.

Here is the game thread, although the forecast is for rain we are hoping for some sticky fingers on Sunday. Let's go Jets!

Bed time but I am hoping the Jets pull this one out. Everyone that is going try and find a way to stay dry. Go Jets!

Curious to see how our D holds up now. I’m expecting for us to have success on offense.

This might be the first time all year that I've seen the two words "expecting" and "success" in the same sentence about the Jets.

Haha. The Raiders D looks like another Redskins/Giants D. 
 

Their offense is a different story though. I think our D is going to have their hands full. I’m excited to watch Bless Austin. Good or bad. We’re going to learn a little bit more about him.

[Rangers9]

I’ll go for Jets 21 Raiders 20. (But I don’t really mean it). I don’t really think our D can match their QB. But anyways we’re playing with Monopoly money today. What the heh. We win by one?.

Jets have won the last 5 meetings at home going back to 1997 - 12-8-1 overall at the Jets yard. Interesting in that Geno Smith was involved in 2 of those wins.

I consider this to be an old rivalry that kind of fizzed out due to expansion and scheduling - back in the hey day I remember the excitement it brought with the anticipated match up with Namath and Lamonica... fun times.

Heck even later on with that playoff game at Oakland  where Walt Michaels went ballistic because of a prank phone call that he claimed it was an Al Davis imposter.... that was his undoing as it was his last year with the Jets.

Say what you will about the Jets' ownership, but at least it doesn't look like that.

Unless the words "against" and "the" and "New York" and "Jets" directly follow them.

Mark Davis looks like a Pedophile. Jets 20 Raiders 17

Leaving soon, time to tailgate.

[New York Mick]

Looking forward to seeing this one. It’s a good match up and the Raiders have a handful of good rookies to watch.

Clearly you weren't around after our first drive of the preseason.

Enjoy stay dry, and bring home the WIN. 

Any day at the stadium is a good day regardless of the weather you just need to prepare for it.

One of the most thrilling sports games I ever saw was when John Hall hit that 48 yarder in Oakland to get us in the playoffs in 2001

 

if we win today I will be equally thrilled

Raiders are only three point favorites, which is surprising considering the Jets quit on Adam Gase a month ago. Related: Bart Scott is awful on the radio
