Even those pencil-necked geeks at The Economist think the Jets fleeced the Redskins in the last draft. (Honestly, the Economist is one of the best magazines ever).
Coach P. from YES takes a look at the Jets defense and the week ahead.
Ciminiblog, nuff said.
It’s like the set of One Day at a Time over in Hempstead.

My post last week was a little pre-mature. Every journey begins with a first step, and this past Sunday the Jets took theirs. I watched a lot of football this past weekend, keeping an eye on the Jets future opponents and on the wild-card and division competition. I liked some of the things [...]

So the Jets head to Green Bay this weekend to take on the Packers. Think this one is in the bag? The Jets are ranked one notch higher right now in Team Efficiency than the Pack on Football Outsiders. You know my rule of thumb in picking games: if one team is very close to [...]

After spending far too much of my work day cutting little strips of paper to write names on, the winner of the Jonathan Vilma charity event at Fusion 215 is Bill Carter. If you didn’t win, but would still like to go to the event, you can register for the event as either a regular [...]

Randy Lange writes an article on Mike Nugent, which highlights Nugent’s focus. Lange also throws in a stat about Nugent’s kicks this season as compared to last year.
One problem area remains — kickoffs. His key numbers are virtually identical to his underwhelming rookie season, from the yard line his kicks reach (6.3 after 11 games [...]

An update on Mangblog!
An interesting article about Pennington from last week that I missed. Not sure about the total premise, but it’s definitely worth a read.
Cimini writes a blurb about one of Bradway’s draft picks. Rich, we know Bradway kills below the third round, it’s the stuff above that which drew issues.
A Schlegel article with [...]

Houston. At home. The way the Jets have played this should theoreticaly be a comfortable win (although inevitably with the threat of a last ditch comeback). Would things pan out that way though?
Let’s find out…
* Not much doing this week in the first half, although compared with last week, I guess 9-3 [...]

Word has hit the papers today that Adrian Jones was arrested for driving while intoxicated. Apparently, Jones wouldn’t take the breathylizer test, which I believe is the same thing as failing a test in New York. Jones wasn’t active on for the first time on Sunday, and was fined $20,000 by the team, not the [...]
