Ghost Posted August 15, 2008 Share Posted August 15, 2008 The Jets Will Go 12-4... Facts are facts and opinions are just that. A FACT is the Jets lost 7 games last year by a touchdown or less, this is all coming from a team with a very weak run defense and a very weak offense period. The Jets had one of the worst offensive lines last year, they had no QB and the running game was practically invisible. Thomas Jones ran for more than 1,000 yards and 1 Touchdown, this was a very quiet 1,000. The Jets running game is going to be alive this year, the offense is going to put up points, especially now we have a QB who can throw more than 20 yards with accuracy. On the defensive side, Kris Jenkins is the player we been missing. The addition of Pace and Gholston should solve the ' Rushing the QB situation ', what I'm trying to say is, anything less than a playoff birth is a huge disappointment for this team. Games are won through the trenches and if you don't believe me, watch the SB and see how the Giants' defensive lineman dominated the Pats'. The Jets have a easy schedule this year and I expect them to triple their wins from last year. We upgraded the TE position, we no longer have Doug Jolley, Anthony Becht, or Kyle Brady, I think we broke this curse this year, Dustin Keller is much more versatile than all of those players coming out, he's showing a lot of potential. I think our ST this year is still going to be good, I just really hope Mike Nugent can start kicking in the long ones. You expectations are very high when you get drafted in the 2nd rounder as a kicker, hopefully he shows what he's really made off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gainzo Posted August 15, 2008 Share Posted August 15, 2008 id say 11-5, just because I know we'll lose a game we should win. I said 10 wins because for some strange reason the Jets can't seem to get over the 10 win level. In my lifetime the Jets have only won more than more than 10 games in a season twice ('85 & '98).

I was 4 in 98, but I didnt get into football until I was 7, so I havent really seen a season over 10 wins either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The big advantage the Jets have over the Pats is that they play Cincy & Tennessee while the Pats play Indy & Pittsburgh. Other than those two games the schedule is the same for both teams.

MACPAC Posted August 16, 2008 Share Posted August 16, 2008 On paper the team looks like 10 - 11 wins. The Jets have spent a ton of money on free agents. Can Mangini manage it all? Or is this a Dan Snyder situation? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MasonJet Posted August 16, 2008 Share Posted August 16, 2008 I think they'll probly win 10, and hopefully 11 if they can pull of a win against New England or San Diego and beat Buffalo in Buffalo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its just my opinion mate. You and I know this is a very disingenuous opinion here. What do past records have to do with this team? If you want to use a past record, how many games did Favre win last year? How many TDs and how much yardage has he thrown for in the past? You want to go by past, then be fair Gainzo.

pauliec Posted August 16, 2008 Share Posted August 16, 2008 I don't know about 12-4, but I like the enthusiasm. I'm being cautiously optimistic and saying 10-6. I also think the Pats will have a bad year, very bad for their standards. Perhaps also 10-6, maybe 11-5, and a poor showing in the playoffs.

Chadwick10 Posted August 16, 2008 Share Posted August 16, 2008 I gotta go 10-6. The first 3 weeks are gonna be tough. if they acn reach the bye week at 2-2, than get to that patriots thursday game at 6-3, they should be alright. If youre staring at 5-5 in the face on thursday, and lose. % and 1 the rest of the way will not be easy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GodWearsAGrayHoodie Posted August 16, 2008 Share Posted August 16, 2008 Simple, they lost out on a wild card spot by 7 games, had the Jets gone 11-5, instead of 4-12 they would have made the playoffs. Of course if you added 7 wins to almost any team other than the fish that team would have made the playoffs as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This with an improved O-line and a QB who's in a different league to Pennington, Favre and our offense should have a field day vs you guys. Regardless of what history says. The Bengals should still have a great offense but I wouldn't expect you to dominate our D the way you did last time, there is no Dewayne Robertson or Jonathan Vilma any more and somehow I doubt Kenny Watson will be rushing for 200 yards with Jenkins and Harris in the middle.

Irish Jet Posted August 16, 2008 Share Posted August 16, 2008 We may go 12-4, but that's all we'll do. We will not win the SB. I think we would have gone 10-6 with Chaddy P at QB, it wouldn't have been as exciting to watch but the end result would have been the same. Playoffs and done.

Buzz kill You have a 31/32 chance of being right, but after all of our upgrades, especially at the QB position, come on, have a little faith! If Eli can do it, so can we!

billybroome Posted August 16, 2008 Share Posted August 16, 2008 Billy is a good guy. I was trying to be nice. Well thank you sir for the compliment, but I stand by my statement. FWIW the Cincinnati defense put Rodgers on his butt on the games second play, and soon after dinged him for an INT, and a total of three turnovers for the game. IMHO the Bengals won on the road against a last season NFC playoff team with new DC and LB coaches, and it bodes well. I will grant you New York has made many improvements. We shall see how they play out when our two teams meet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
