I wonder if that will shut up Giants fans. I’ll take a win over the Bills and a loss by the Giants to the Cowboys, leaving both teams at 6-6 with 4 games left.

We stopped the Saints when we had to. We have the personnel to keep every game close. Our offense obviously just needs to not blow games going into the 4thQ. I know I'm a sucker but I do see a road to winning every game-even the Colts & the Bengals. DEFENSE takes over & we win. Watching the Pats-Saints, I was thinking that our D can do this.

Hype so Woody The Weasel can pocket our money and earn interest in the months he holds on to the money. The JETS should now be playing players who are going to be the future of this team and not underperforming 1st teamers. The best thing that can happen to the JETS is lose again to the Bills.

Then every game fell our way. So now I say.......still silly. As I said then and still say now, let's win our next three before entertaining any such talk. Should we be able to actually put together such a streak, (in spite of all the evidence that says we can't), then, and only then, will such talk be more than a delusional pipedream. By the way, a "pipedream" is an hallucination an opium addict experiences. Perhaps in this context "Jetsdream" would be more appropriate. Damn it. I've been smoking the Jet pipe again. We can do this! I can feel it! Bring on the Bills! Just two days ago I posted that playoff talk was silly due to teams ahead of us and tiebreaker scenarios. Then every game fell our way.

Just win out and we're in. The teams we're competing with don't have easy roads either and alot of games against one another. Anything's possible.

Was hoping 9-7 might be good enough but alas that appears unlikely when you dive deeper into the schedules. IF the Jets manage to win Thursday we will all be big GB fans on Monday night, since BAL appears the biggest threat of the 6-5 teams. They have an easy scedule with the only two logical losses vs. GB and reeling PIT, they need to lose them both. Actually might be a better chance of DEN completely collapsing as they are prone to do. Not looking good, lets just hope we see improvement the rest of the way and that the next home game v. ATL is meaningful, would take that at this point.
