JonEJet Posted December 27, 2006 Share Posted December 27, 2006 or, will it take AT LEAST a win in the playoffs to make the season a success? My expectations for this team are not that high....I think the team a few years ago that lost to Pittsburgh was a better team So even though I want to make some "noise" in the playoffs, the season will be considered a success after last year with one and done. Do I think we can make some noise against Indy, or the Pats.....absolutely Can we beat San Diego, and stop LT.....we did a few years ago Can we beat the Pats....absolutely Would the Ravens be a tough matchup.....sure thing Could the Broncos be beaten.....yep SO in other words, nothing would suprise me.....an invitation to the dance would make the year a success...anything more, well that would just be gravy.

shawn306 Posted December 27, 2006 Share Posted December 27, 2006 To me this season is already a great success. If they go in and get bombed first round, I'll be upset but I'll get over it in about 15 seconds. I think the Jets will give whoever they face in the first round a battle. Indy's defense is falling apart and now Manning is taking shots at them. So yeah I think they could go in and give them a good game. New England: I think again the Jets would keep the game close but New England is still superior in overall talent. I think the one team that could really put a beating on the Jets is Baltimore. They are just too fast and too physical for the Jets this time around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LionelRichie Posted December 27, 2006 Share Posted December 27, 2006 right now i will be happy with a win against the raiders. once the jets get in the playoffs anything is possible. i truly believe that with this coaching staff the jets will prepared and have a gameplan to beat whatever team they face. the jets can get hot at the right time get a couple of breaks and anything is possible. mangini, shot, and sutton have what it takes to beat the colts and the pressure in that game is squarely on peyton manning - crazier things have happened.

Maxman Posted December 27, 2006 Share Posted December 27, 2006 I will be happy with the season they had if they make it. To get this close and lose Sunday would be terrible. But if they lose in the 1st round it is still a great season. That being said I will want them to win, will go to the game and root like a madman!

124 Posted December 27, 2006 Share Posted December 27, 2006 As said about 2 weeks ago... If you told all of us on September 1st that the Jets would go 8-8, 99% of Jets fans would've signed up for it. Making the playoffs is a tremendous success and if we could find a way to win a playoff game(s) well then this will be one of the better seasons I've ever seen. But how about this from today's paper? 2005: Jets starters missed 71 games 2006: Jets starters missed 2 games (Kendall Weeks 2 & 3) Think about that. The talent was here. The only thing was keeping it healthy and bringing out the best in some players who havn't been used / havn't played up to their potential because of the former coaching staff (Bryan Thomas, Dewayne Robertson, Victor Hobson, Chris Baker & Jerricho Cotchery) and of course the impact of a handful of rookies (Ferguson, Mangold, Washington, B.Smith, E.Smith, etc.).

Scott Dierking Posted December 27, 2006 Share Posted December 27, 2006 Really, I would have to suggest that this would accelerate the overall progress of this front office by one year. With nice cap room and the hopes of a good draft, the Jets can make themselves a much different team next year. With more expectations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

faba Posted December 27, 2006 Share Posted December 27, 2006 I am confident that Mangini and Co has the Jets on the right path- I will be rooting like hell in any game the Jets play but they make me proud to be a Jet fan especially this year!

LionelRichie Posted December 27, 2006 Share Posted December 27, 2006 mangini's 1 game at a time has never been more true than now. winning the super bowl seems daunting - SD, Balt, Indy, NE. but none of that matters, all that matters in the raiders. seperating 1 game from the aggregate. the jets only have to beat the raiders that's it. the next week is exactly that, next week. the jets don't have to beat all of those teams - this isn't diggstown. they only have to beat 1 team each week and they can definitely do that.

I mean look at the 05 injured starters and games missed: Pennington - 13 games Barton - 12 games Mawae - 10 games Chrebet - 8 games Baker - 8 games Fabini - 7 games Martin - 4 games (even freakin' Curtis missed a quarter of the damn season!)

fatman Posted December 27, 2006 Share Posted December 27, 2006 The jets fan in me will be a little dissappointed if we don't win the super bowl in yet another season but the realist in will realize that this was a great season with a team that wasn't even supposed to be this good and that mangini is building a great base right now with great young talent and that the jets should be good for years to come.

I know what you're saying, I can read power rankings, and we've done astonishingly well. but a year that begins as a rebuilding year (in my mind) must end as one. I look forward to how good we'll be after Mangini gets some drafts and FA under his belt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I want to see him trying to punish the opposition for being aggressive. I believe!!! Chad is known for being a tough competitor... I am curious to see what happens with Shotty and the coaches when we go from expecting to have an OK season to making the playoffs.. with the season on the line will they give Chad even more slack and let him take over a game or will they reel him in? I think Chad has it in him personality wise, now we just have to see if he has that physical intensity you need to get it done. I love how you say it though.... I want to see a fire in chad's eyes, I want to see him trying to punish the opposition for being aggressive. Lets hope your wish comes true, you know I believe.

I'm the spokesman for the "We Think LaMont Jordan Is Over-Rated Fan Club" while Sperm is the spokesman for the exact opposite.

124 Posted December 27, 2006 Share Posted December 27, 2006 Randy Moss for Matt Schaub would make sense. That would be a very good trade for the Raiders. Also riz, what's the deal with Porter?
