It felt like Throwback Thursday at MetLife Stadium. There was a vintage pass rush, ground-and-pound, and Fireman Ed was back leading around 80,000 raucous Jets fans in the classic J-E-T-S chant. If you asked me, this team and that performance resembled one that occurred when the organization went to back-to-back AFC Championship Games in 2009…

FLORHAM PARK, NY – As the Jets come off another excruciating loss to Miami last week, their season that a few weeks ago looked like it would be a pleasant surprise is on the downswing again.

Most people believed that even with a high powered offense returning most of their stars, the team would struggle. So far, through three games and it’s been the offense that has…
Miami FL: For the second straight week, the New York Jets had a 14 point lead against a division rival. And for the second straight week, the Jets lost the game. The Miami Dolphins won their third straight game and split the season series against New York with their 31-28 victory. The Jets had built a…
Miami Gardens, FL: Nearly one month ago, the Jets opened their home slate at 0-2 with a bruised ego against the Miami Dolphins. Their opponent that September afternoon was picked by some to repeat their success of a season ago and beat New York down in all facets. That wasn’t the case. The Jets dominated and…

How could the “worst constructed roster in a decade” match up head-to-head with the some of the deepest lineups in the league? It’s simple. This is the NFL.

East Rutherford, NJ: The score is 24-14. Austin Seferian-Jenkins celebrates with his teammates after scoring a touchdown. Then the play goes under review.
