The New York Jets Thread

[MHSL82]

As explained in the Team-by-Team Thread, I am planning on making a thread every three days for a different team. The first few posts will be questions, requests for predictions, etc. There will be a poll unless I don't feel like making one. Some teams are less interesting than others.Please participate in posting articles, predictions, etc.

So far:

The Seattle Seahawks Thread - SB Winner.

The Denver Broncos Thread - Lost to SB Winner.

I have them missing the playoffs again. There are just too many questions on the offensive side of the ball for me to think they have a chance. The addition of Decker helps but with Geno at QB, I don't think it really matters. I would give them better odds of succeeding if they started Vick, but even then... They have an up-and-coming defense with a lot of talent. So maybe if they can finally figure out the QB position, they can build a playoff caliber team around him. Not sure if Geno is the answer to that yet.

Patriots are going to dominate the division as usual. And the Bills & Dolphins are making their own cases as well. I think best case is the Jets finish 8-8 again. Their schedule is pretty damn tough, and I only counted 6-7 wins at first glance.

The Jets are going to be an absolute bitch to play against. Their D is going to be good again, they have some unbelievably underrated players on that front 7 (Big Mo and Richardson). They added a few more weapons on offense which is good but above everything else I just don't trust the o-line.

I think a lot of last year's offensive struggles and Geno's problems were because of poor play from the o-line. Too often they couldn't get a run game established and without that threat of a run, team's could force Geno to try and beat them and that wasn't happening.

The entire NFL knows that Rex LOVES the run game. He is going to try and establish it all game long if he has to.

The Jets should be pretty strong in the trenches on both sides of the ball this year...I think Geno makes a big leap in ball protection this year or we're going to see what Vick has left pretty quickly. The LBs need to step up and this DEF will be a bear.

Out of DIV road games are not brutal...GB, SD, KC, MIN,TN, I can see them winning 2 to 3 of those...but the non-DIV home games could be brutal...they need to split the DIV imo to win 8 games.

They are rising but I don't know if they will be consistent enough to make the playoffs.

√..... ask me after week 6 or 7.

I think Rex is a very underrated coach. His braggart asshole stuff masks his ability to do quite a bit with not much. It's just hard to keep pulling that off with any consistency.

They are like the Buttaface of the League. They have everything ButtaQB

Going out on a limb and have them missing the playoffs. Not much else to say.

I'll also go out on a limb and say that almost every thread for the "Team by Team" posts from here on out will be voted to miss the playoffs.

Safe assumption

Probably so. Also likely that the poll results will be wrong about at least one of those teams. For example, I doubt that the Eagles, Chiefs or Chargers would have gotten many votes to make the playoffs a year ago.

Denver, @Green Bay, New England, @New England: Win 0 (1).
Miami, @Kansas City, @Miami, @San Diego, @Tennessee: Win 3 (2).
Pittsburgh, Chicago: Win 1.
Buffalo, @Minnesota, @Buffalo, Detroit, Oakland: Win 4.

8-8.

One more win somewhere than I think, one more loss. 8-8, but I could see a game more or less.

I'm not going to be the sole playoff guesser. I still think Rex has his job forever.
