Default The Jets

What a disaster of a performance they put in on all three phases yesterday.

On two different occasions they handed the ball to the 49ers after leg injuries. A tight end caught a pop pass from Tebow and dropped the ball before he was down, so he could grab his knee.

Holmes giftwrapped a touchdown to Carlos Rodgers when he felt a non-contact injury and tossed him the ball before he was ever touched.

The offense really looks like it would be better off if they just went to the wishbone formation by week 6. Just put your two best runners behind Tebow and Conner and steal a playbook from one of the military academies.

I was surprised by the number of 49er fans. Had to be over a thousand people wearing 49er jerseys. The Jets fans do tailgating right anyway. It wasn't exactly a major college like atmosphere outside the stadium -- but for pro sports -- it was a great atmosphere.

What Holmes did was something I've never seen before. I cannot believe he's being given a pass for it today by the NY Media. It was shocking.
The Jets radio station reported it was close to 10,000 49er fans there yesterday.

Did Moss even play?

Moss got one target -- a pass thrown into triple coverage -- he was shut out.

He's not getting looks in that offense, but obviously he's shot.

i saw another guy do the same thing last week-grabbed a hurt limb and let the ball roll free. holmes apparently suffered a serious foot injury on that play.

the jets were an abomination yesterday.

Serious foot injury where the x-rays and MRI's are negative. He's one tough guy.

I wouldn't care if his foot snapped off, what he did was disgraceful. The only way you give up the ball there is if you are knocked unconscious.

Just another instance of 10 putting himself before the team. It's like Rex is afraid to admit that he made mistakes on guys like Sanchez, Greene, and the likes. Week 1 offense looked too good to be true.

x-rays negative. mri hasn't come back yet. i doubt they'd expect him to be out multiple games if there was no actual injury.


and that play wasn't the deciding factor in that game. the jets just suck.

Never said it was, just a symptom of the disease that has been Holmes throughout his career, and certainly since joining the Jets.

And they have the results of the MRI, they just can't figure out what's wrong, so they sent them to a specialist in Charlotte, North Carolina.

So if Tebow played they would have scored less than 0 points? He's not much of a QB but he is a leader that has a history of winning. Give him a shot. That would free up more time for their current bum to be a playboy. Obviously that's more important to him that football.

^^^ Did anyone in the Jets front office NOT See this type of reaction coming? Did anyone not consider this a cancer to the team? Given the fact that Woody would rather see Romney win then his Jets I think they may have but were overruled.

Well to be fair, only real idiots have this kind of reaction. I'm not defending Sanchez, but he was hardly the reason they lost that game.

They are a bad team and that was pretty obvious from the get go. They have no offensive weapons aside from Holmes and he's a cancer for the entire NFL.

It starts at the top with the Jets and as you mention, the top sucks, so it makes sense the rest does as well.

I do not see the glass as empty as you. They split with NE and the have a shot at 5-1 in the division very much in the playoff hunt.

6-10 when all is said and done if they are lucky and trust me, I really hope I am wrong.

Tannenbaum and the clown Ryan have got to go! They will never build a real team. I've been a Jet fan since the beginning and this is makin me sick. I'm done till they are gone.

Yeah, sanchez isnt the problem. He cant do it alone for sure. I dont know who is making personnel decisions, but they arent the savviest football execs by a long shot. Team would have been better served spending tebow money on other offensive positions....and they need a different coach.
