I think the Jets are finally focus on reaching the goals of Division winner & 1st week Playoffs bye. That being said, I’m now just going to try to enjoy the ride.

Also, if the Jets win they are in, the rest of the contenders all play each other and somebody has to lose those matchups!

I said to a friend two weeks ago, “If we win in New England and Tennessee, Team confidence will be so high, we’ll probably win out.”

He laughed at me and said, “Let’s just hope they will the divisional game”.

And I said we need to go AT LEAST 3-2. If we go 4-1, we’ll get it, but if we go 3-2, with the three wins coming in the conference, we still have a good shot at it.

LOL @ people thinking we need to win out to get a bye. The Steelers aren’t finishing better than 11-5, they’re not that good.

If we win the rest of our conference games, we’ll be in good shape for a bye. Period.

It’s an interesting season in the AFC. There are a lot of really bad teams out there and as such, I can’t see the Titans losing more than 2 more games. That means the Jets have to win out to get home field. But OH!!! HOW SWEET WOULD IT BE TO HOST THE AFC CHAMPIONSHIP GAME!

I think Tennessee could easily lose at Pittsburgh and the rematch with the Colts in Indy. Easily.

I won’t be able to officially say “Playoffs” until we beat Denver next week. I’ve been a fan long enough to know the history of our December collapses, and while I don’t think this team will fall into that trap, as a Jets fan who knows our history, I am not secure until we get our 10th win. 11-5 would secure at the very least a playoff spot and 10-6 would be okay.

As far as the home field & playoff byes are concerned, if we go 11-5 we are out. We still have a reasonable chance at the bye at 12-4, but we have to beat Denver and Miami. The bye will be secure at 13-3 I think and we might even have a chance at the top seed if Tennessee falters.

following this past week’s win, I’m able to go ahead and assume the playoffs as having been achieved.

As such, my season expectations have now been raised for at least 1 playoff win. I still can’t bring myself to think any further down the road though.

I love this team, but then i loved them last year too. To see everything starting to come together is so rewarding and exciting. I really don’t care how far they go this year, I’m not going to get upset if they don’t make the playoffs (though conversley, I’d love them to win the whole thing) because it’s just been such a pleasure to watch this team play their sport well.

However, the pessimist side of me thinks that however big the 4th quarter lead, they’ll still lose. If they do, I’ll be gutted, but only till next sunday.
