Ray in CT,

My sentiments exactaly. They have to win today, whatever happens the two following weeks happens, as long as they play hard and smart.

To quote another NFL organization: Just win, baby.

If they lose the next two (vs. New England & SD), I would be upset but could live with it. Losing today, however … ugh. And I expect the revamped Dolphins to give the Jets everything they can handle. Should be a good one!

Brett couldn’t beat Chad with the Packers so, he’ll have to beat him with his own team. Life can be amazing.

sounds like a hot one and will be decided in 4thQ. can’t let the defense stay on the field. that would be a real problem.
have to figure they’ll start getting real worn after about 45 plays, so time of possession will be important if this game stays close.
run the ball, stop the run and all the big plays will go jets way in the pasing game.

The Jets must flat out win this game ! If its even close we must take a close look at those areas and make changes. The huge difference this year, like last year, will be our defense. We will go as far as our defense will take us and there is no reason why we cant make up the points diff in 5-6 loses last year.

ok i see i very good game for cotchery, favre might not get 300 yds , but cotchery ( who i have in my fantasy team ) will destroy will allen or the other guy which coles will destroy , and this is the game where all our questions about the running game will be answered

Jake long , wow what can i say about this guy he was a beast in college ,and i know he will be freakin awesome in the NFL , i just hope it will take him time to make his transition to the NFL speed

i love the way you think we do have leon and the other guys but i think you forgot about ted ginn , but no matter we have the genius Westoff to control him , so we have the best special teams , only 2nd to DA bears ( losers )

All great points, the Jets need to control both lines of scrimmage. How about special teams where the Jets have an advantage with Leon returning kicks and Lowery returning punts possibly, or Miller, either way this will be an advantage not only for this game but throughout the season.

So that link above actually broadcasts the game from CBS?

I think you got all the talking points right as well. We essentially need to not beat ourselves out there today.
