It’s only the first day of the offseason, and already there is a ton of Jet news out there for us to digest.
First of all, yesterday’s win over the Chiefs turned out to be a “loss” in terms of draft order. If the Jets had lost, they would have picked third in the 2008 Draft. […]

Jets 13, Chiefs 10 (OT)

Leave it to two bad teams to play their last game of the season into overtime. The agony was prolonged more than anyone had a right to be subjected to it.
This was a bad game, no question about it. Both teams demonstrated their ineptness on offense–Kellen Clemens couldn’t seem to get a rhythym going, and […]

Turn out the lights, the party’s over…
Believe it or not, the season ends today for the Jets. It’s been a dismal one, and this marks the end of a (hopefully) bad stretch and the beginning of a new era for the franchise.
There’s not much to say about this game. The Chiefs are 4-11, so this […]

When your team is 3-12 entering the last game of the season, it’s hard to find many positives in a dismal year. However, there are signs that the Jets will be in a position to improve next year with a solid foundation of young and veteran players.
Of course, the offensive line, the defensive line, and […]

It looks like Kellen Clemens will get the start against the Chiefs this Sunday, as expected. This is an important start for him as this will in all likelihood be the last day that Chad Pennington will wear a Jets uniform so, for all intents and purposes, this is now Clemens’ team, and the spotlight […]

First of all, I hope all of you out there had a wonderful Christmas with your loved ones. Although it hasn’t been a great time for the Jets and their fans, hopefully our own lives and those of our friends and families have been enriched by our time together.
Anyway, this Sunday’s game against the Chiefs […]

I’m still trying to get over yesterday’s infuriating loss.  That was the seventh loss this season by seven points or less–that is truly the mark of a bad team. If you can’t find a way to win when the game is up for grabs, that is pure evidence that your personnel is not very good.
With […]

Titans 10, Jets 6

If you needed any further evidence that the 2007 New York Jets are a bad football team, all you need is to point to this game. The Jets were absolutely hideous on offense, with the offensive line being the number one culprit. The Titans’ Kyle Vanden Bosch was a beast–three sacks while making any one […]

I haven’t paid much attention to the Jets this week as I, like most of us, have been hurriedly finishing up my holiday shopping as well as wrapping up some projects at work so I can take some time off this coming week and simply relax.
However, there is a game today, and it’s an important […]

Pennington feels his time in New York is coming to a close

It seems that Chad Pennington has seen the writing on the wall and is pretty much convinced his time as a New York Jet is about to end. As we’ve said here time and again, he’s done a fine job, but he is not the right fit for this team any longer and it is […]
