As former Jet Head Coach Herm Edwards used to say, "you play the game to win." That's what the Jets did on Sunday. That's what the Colts didn't do. That's not the concern or business of the New York Jets, so please stop talking, Coach Ryan! With a 15-10 lead on Sunday the Indianapolis Colts made a strategic decision to abandon a quest for perfection vs. resting players and getting prepared for the greater ...

As formeráNew York MetáTug McGraw used to say, "ya gotta believe." Unable to do the probable last weekáagainst the Atlanta Falcons, the New York Jets took a giant step back into the playoff hunt today by doing the impossible and defeating the Indianapolis Colts 28-15áto spoil a perfect 14-0 run while snapping a 23-game regular season streak, the longest in NFL history. The Jets, now 3-1 in Decemberáare sitting pretty in the ...

The New York Jets will play for pride and respect the rest of the way as they start to look at the direction this offense needs to take next year if theáteamáis truly toá compete with a declining New England Patriotáclub for the AFC East in 2010. The game in Indianapolis will give the New YorkáJets one last opportunity on national television to prove to someone, anyone that this offense has ...

It wasn't supposed to end this way. But as usual for Jet fans, it did. There will be coal in your stocking, Jet fans, for the third year in a row as theáoffense fumbled, stumbled, and intercepted its way out of the playoff picture for 2009. For frustrating is the only way to describe today's 10-7 loss to the Atlanta Falcons which ended any hope of a postseason berth for the New York ...

In 1977 Reggie Jackson was dubbed Mr October for his clutch playoff and World Series reliability. Is New York Head Coach Rex Ryan emulating Reggie as the Mr December for this franchise? A stifling defense. A smash mouth running game. A home venue with a noisy crowd thatárelishes the elements of winter. Is Rex Ryan trying to build a franchise in the likeness and image of his father's Chicago Bears? Itácertainly looks that way. The ...

Rookie quarterback Mark Sanchez will do his best impression of Jet icon Joe "Willie" Namath come Sunday at the Meadowlands as he seeks to lead his team to a playoff berth for the first time in three years. With two braces and the elements to deal with plus the pesky Atlanta Falcons, Mark Sanchez was given the start in wake of the IndianapolisáColts becoming the third team in NFL history to ...

Has the New York Sack Exchange been replaced with the new Monsters of the Meadowlands? Given the fact the New York Jets statistically have the most dominant defense since the 1985 edition of the Chicago Bears more commonly referred to as the Monsters of the Midway, is the connection justácoincidental or fate given Head Coach Rex Ryan's dad isáformer Bear defensive coordinator Buddy Ryan, the architect of that 15-1ásquadáthat shutout the ...

It's been almost two weeks since the December 3rd injury that has Mark Sanchez on the shelf with no word from the New York Jets if we'll see the struggling rookie again in 2009. With a second injury to another knee, Jet management has been quiet and mum as to his availibility this Sunday against the 6-7 Atlanta Falcons that could move the Jets to 8-6 and stay in the playoff mix ...

Coming off an easy win against the hapless Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Sunday, the New York Jets got the day off Monday as they moved to 7-6 with a three-game win streak and back into the thick of the NFLáplayoff picture. While beating a bad Tampa Bay club is nothing to brag about, the Jets could find themselves with a realistic shot at the playoffs with some help in Week 15. While ...

With a possible playoff berth hanging in the balance, why are the Jets committed to Kellen Clemens as the starter when everyone knows he has no future with the franchise? Should the Jets get to 7-6, the possibility of a Wildcard invitation or diviaional title are still very real. For a lifetime, sub par .500 franchise over 50 years, you would think Mike Tanenbaum would do all he can to ensure ...
