The game didn't go well for the Jets,
and with more attempts than usual for Pennington, it is easy to see
why. When he is forced to throw more than 30 times, it is rarely a good
thing.

The team's two leaders, Chad Pennington and Curtis Martin apparently addressed the team
yesterday to give the players a dose of reality and send a shock to the
system. After such a tough divisional loss, this is good to see. Just
days ago, we were getting reports about a disconsolate Chad after the home loss to the Patriots.
With [...]

Ken Berger of Newsday ponders whether Paul Hackett will be asked back
next season, which leads me to the question, who or what type of system
works most effectively with the players in this offense?
If you assume that LaMont Jordan, Wayne Chrebet and Anthony Becht
will not be back next year. With a 32 year old Running Back [...]

After
this Sunday's debacle, as tempted as I am to write a short piece and
then just say “that's my story and I'm sticking to it”, I will fulfill
my responsibility and report fully on the weekend's game. Suffice to
say, this was not a lot of fun. Here are my thoughts:
Having said I am going to report fully [...]

Here is a good, in depth piece about Curtis Martin and his story in today's Boston Globe.

Newsday's Johnette Howard (who?!) wanted to pile on good old “Mad Chad”, but like a bone-jarring hit five yeards out of bounds, this one is getting penalized.
Howard's problem is twofold. First, this piece is about four days
too late, and second, like Tom Smykowski's “Jump to Conclusions Matt”
the premise is a horrible, horrible idea. Mixing [...]

Time
for presents! Rather than sugarplums, it sounds like Luis Vuitton and
custom tailored suits are dancing in offensive linemen's heads.
Newsday reports that Chad is buying his guys suits while Curtis is showering them with accessories that Jersey girls would “die fo-wah.”
Here is what is on my Christmas List:
A win on the 26th.
A power ranking in [...]

Cannizarro writes a good article about Shaun Ellis and how the Jets are looking forward to this weekend:
“It's time for us to stand up,” Jason Ferguson said
yesterday. “You can't keep letting your big brother keep beating you
around. They've got three straight wins on us and we need to stand up
and stop that.
“The other thing [...]

The
New York Sports Media, still sulking from Chad's attack is still
writing about it, but now we are bringing in knowledgable sources, like
Boomer, who by the way, every NY paper quotes today… what did he do,
have a press conference of his own?
Rich Cimini writes a piece of crap
today about the Jets, employing Boomer Esiason to help [...]

I'd
like to open this week with an apology. I feel I may have been unduly
harsh to certain players over the last few weeks. In particular,
Anthony Becht has been unfairly singled out for criticism and in order
to affirm my allegiance to the team, I am watching the game sporting my
#88 Jets replica jersey. For one week [...]

Not
expecting much from the Monday Night Game, I was shocked to see the
Dolphins in the hunt at the half. I really did not want to stay up late
and was mad when I saw the game was still close, I realized that the
Dolphins were in a place to possibly beat the Patriots. Watching the
last four minutes [...]

After
such a demoralizing loss to the Steelers, this game became more
important to win. Me personally, I was looking forward to this one more
because I thought the Jets actually stood a chance of winning, but also
because I had counted this, like the Texans game as one of those “must
win games.”
With two games left, and three [...]
