I know it’s only one victory, but beating the Pittsburgh Steelers Sunday, 20-13 meant so much more than that. TURNOVERS! The Jets only had 3 the first 8 games but got 4 yesterday and did not turn the ball over themselves. No matter how well our defense plays, without turnovers to help a struggling offense, to score a Defensive touchdown […]

I was sitting at home on Friday afternoon, watching “Pardon the Interruption” on ESPN, when I got a phone call from my son Chris, in Orlando. “Mom, did you hear the Jets got Percy Harvin?” I said yeah, right, that has to be a joke. But, within a few minutes, the news was all over Twitter! A Super fast WR/PR/KR who

Last year the players decided, though late in the year, to unite to win to make sure Coach Rex Ryan would be retained as Head Coach of the New York Jets. They won their last two games, including a victory to knock the Miami Dolphins out of the playoffs. Remember the celebration in the locker room? The Jets better do

Tough Sledding When the NY Jets were at training camp in Cortland this past summer, a bunch of loyal Jet Fans would sit outside the Country Inn Suites Hotel and discuss the “murderous” Jets schedule. After all agreeing that the Jets would defeat the Raiders on opening day, the consensus was it was imperative to be 2-2 after the first

Today was a lot harder than I thought it would be. Losing to the Green Bay Packers was not unexpected, having to face the best QB in the NFL Aaron Rodgers at the legendary Lambeau Field. But after scoring touchdowns on our first 3 possessions and leading 21-3, I almost believed this could be a monumental upset. But a football

Beating Oakland opening day was a must and the Jets are now 1-0. Getting the W is what counts in the end, but it shouldn’t have come down to recovering an onside kick to preserve a 5 point victory. Should Have Been a “Rat Kill” As Coach Rex Ryan pointed out so well in the after game press conference, when

Today, it’s for real! The NY Jets open their 2014 season against the Oakland Raiders. I can’t wait. Defense So much has been written about the depleted DB situation, we will finally get to see it get played out on the field. I’m waiting to see how Coach Rex Ryan uses Rookie safety Calvin Pryor. If he’s the upgrade and

Preseason Week 2: Jets Vs Bengals The Jets are now 2-0 in pre-season, but to me, pre-season records mean nothing. So many times the Jets through the years were 4-0 and had horrible seasons. Since the CBA, I feel even stronger about that. Since teams can’t really tackle and do what they used to in training camps, pre-season is even

Hitting Is Here! Jets had practice in pads today! Finally, a chance to see some hitting, blocking, pass rush and tackling. Quarterbacks Geno Smith led first-team offense vs first-team defense (except for 3 plays), and Michael Vick led second-team offense vs second-team defense. Vick had a super day–I just wish I could have seen him with the first team to
