Florham Park, NJ– Expectations and hope are two similar, but completely different concepts and yet when it comes to the Jets people struggle to recognize the differences.

‘Folk Hero’ struck again when Nick Folk kicked a game-winning 42 yard field goal and there weren’t too many people happier about it than linebacker David Harris.

It’s not as if the Jets came out flat to open the game, they’re first offensive drive went for 80 yards and seven points as Geno Smith found Jeremy Kerley open for a touchdown, but the Patriots offense was able to move the ball with relative ease in the first half before the Jets flipped…
