A look at the NY Jets remaining schedule

Now that the New York Jets bye week has come and gone, lets take a quick look at Gang Green’s remaining schedule.

10/31 Green Bay (4-3) The Packers are a dangerous team as their passing offense can score points in bunches. Defensively Green Bay has struggled, especially against the run, which plays to one of the Jets strengths. It will be interesting to see how Gang Green plays coming off of their bye week. The home crowd will be fired up, will Gang Green match their energy?

11/7 @ Detroit (1-5) The Lions are much improved, especially on offense where they are ranked 16th overall, and 7th in passing. It is on defense where Detroit struggles as they are ranked 27th. On paper this is a game the Jets should win with their ground and pound running attack.

11/14 @ Cleveland (2-5) The Jets get their first shot at former coach Eric Mangini which will make for great storylines. The Browns are a young team, playing with nothing to lose, which makes them very dangerous. Just ask the New Orleans Saints. I expect the Jets to come out with some extra juice for this one, as several current players would love to get back at their former coach.

11/21 Houston (4-2) The Houston Texans are a team that is loaded with talent on both sides of the ball. As of this point the team’s performance has not been very consistent, but they remain a contending team in the AFC. The Jets defense will have their hands full with the Texans 4th ranked offense.

11/25 Cincinnati (2-4) A Thanksgiving night game that was intended to be a primetime matchup between 2 contending teams. Well the Bengals have been a disappointment thus far, and could be a team in turmoil by the time this game is played.

12/6 @ New England (5-1) A Monday night battle against one of the Jets biggest rivals. This game could have serious playoff implications, not only for the division, but also for playoff seeding. The Jets won the first meeting this season 28-14.

12/12 Miami (3-3) Back to back tough games for Gang Green as they take on another division rival. As with the Pats game, this matchup could have serious playoff implications as well. Gang Green beat the Fish back in week 3 31-23.

12/19 @ Pittsburgh (5-1) This could be the Jets toughest road test of the season as the Steelers are arguably one of the best teams in the NFL. Pittsburgh brings an excellent defense to the table, along with a powerful offense. Add in the home field advantage and the Jets will have the cards stacked against them in this one.

12/26 @ Chicago (4-3) The Bears got off to a quick start, but have come back to reality now that teams have figured out Mike Martz’ schemes. Chicago is no easy place to play, especially in December, but the Jets defense and ground and pound offense are a good formula heading into the game.

1/2 Buffalo (0-6) The Jets close out the regular season with the Buffalo Bills, a team that could be looking at the #1 pick in the 2011 draft. There is a good chance that the Bills will have mailed in the season by this game, which could be important as the Jets may be fighting for playoff positioning.

It is hard to predict how the rest of the season will play out, but the Jets will definitely face some challenges as the season progresses. The three game stretch of New England, Miami, and Pittsburgh could dictate the Jets season.

Games @Detroit, @Chicago and @Cleveland will not be calkwalk games for the Jets.

This is the NFL there are very few cake walks. Did anyone say otherwise?

Look at the Chargers yesterday. They lost a game at home that they had circled as a victory. These things happen.

Does the author really think there are Jets players who want to get back at Mangini? I thought the players thought he was a dick, but had a decent relationship with him, anyway. No water bottle fines or bus trips halfway across the country in NY.

That NE game, I didn't realize that it's on Monday Night. Sanchez seems to suck on Monday Night so far in his young career. Not a good sign. Then a short week for the mediocre sea mammals? Not the best scenario.

But the Jets get extra prep for the NE game, so that is a bonus.

I would say that 2 games on MNF is hardly a true trend.

If we come out of the bye and beat the Packers, I can't see how the Jets don't move to 8-1, we'll hopefully be able to move the ball at will against the Lions, and unless Peyton Hillis goes off in the Cleveland game, I don't see how McCoy, assuming he's still starting, beats our defense.

They're just looking for and pushing a storyline.

That NE game is on the road in December...That's usually when teams trying to live a dream start to collapse. I hope we win the next 5 to make that game easier to take W or L.

Ummm, so do that Pats.

Who would you rather have prepping for a game, BB or Wrecks? :blink:

If the last meeting between the Jets & Patriots is any indicator, "Wrecks" is as good or better than Belichick at designing a gameplan.

Certainly Rex is better at in-game adjustments. Belichick didn't look real smart going away from what worked in the 1st half (underneath throws) and having Brady lobbing it up for a blanketed Moss in the 2nd half.

The Pats are winning by the skin of their teeth.

Now that's pretty funny coming from a Jets fan.

How did the Jets do against a team that the friggn' Raiders completely destoyed.

Oh yea, they needed a penalty on a 4th down desparation throw to barely squeak out a win.

Wow. This is pathetic and demonstrates zero football knowledge whatsoever. Nothing but a weak trolling attempt.

Sorry, not taking the bait basement boy.

You know this is not a fair comparison week to week.

Look at both the Jets and Pats fared against the Bills.

Well, BB is 1-2 vs. Rex...so...

Its Klacko, he's got mushy brains. The Jets and Pats both squeaked out a couple of wins here lately, but thats what good teams do. Win despite not playing well.

However, the Pats are having some major adjustment issues without Moss. Having a hard time moving the chains and scoring. Their offense was terrible yesterday. And seeing how the Jets won the first meeting, could be interesting to see how well the Pats move the ball against the Jets D assuming they are full strength and Revis isnt playing like dingle-berry.

You want to compare the game against the winless Bills?

How about comparing the games against good teams, like the Phins and Ravens.

Are you telling me that NFL teams should be judged in comparison by how they played against different teams on different weeks? Do you really want to do that, and feel that equates to some scientific approach to analysis? Really?

Yeah, and that Jet team that could barely beat the Broncos beat the Pats by 2 TD's - so I guess the Raiders must be like 50-60 points better than NE on any given Sunday, right?

Or are you a complete idiot?

Or both? Both's definitely an option.

If it supports my arguement, then yes. ;)

Comparing games played against common opponents doesn't mean anything and is a waste of time.

This coming from a guy who said the Pats would go 0-3, or 1-2 at the very best in the last 3 games @Miami, Ravens and @San Diego.

Good call on that one.

Find that quote.

I gotta warn you, though, it's gonna be tough. I had NE beating both Miami and San Diego.

Not that facts ever have much to do with what you post here, anyway.

BB won a Super Bowl title in his 2nd year as HC of the NEP's.

I could give a rat's a$$ what he did in Cleveland.

I understand you don;t care what he did in Cleveland, but it's still where he started. Be awesome if Rex won a Superbowl with the Jets this year. I'm dressing up as chubby Neil Armstrong for the parade. You can go with me and be a moon rock.
