SNY says Houston and Coles are fine.

Wow. I thought that both of them were hurt real bad. That's great news if it's true.

Another source's info on Houston and Coles... not good:

http://jets.lohudblogs.com/2006/10/01/colts-31-jets-28/


Nothing official will be known on running back Cedric Houston or wide receiver Laveranues Coles until tomorrow. But having just returned from the Jets locker room, here’s what can be reported through basic observation:

Houston hobbled out of the stadium on crutches with his right leg elevated slightly. At times, he dropped his right leg down to put weight on it, but not often. It doesn’t look too good for him.

Coles was in the locker room to address the media. After telling wave after wave of reporters that he was ``OK,’’ he said if he wasn’t OK, he wouldn’t be talking to us. Still, he appeared to hurt his right wrist and the whispers downstairs were he underwent an immediate X-ray.

It is ridiculous to think that both the Jets and Giants were one drive away from sinking the Colts.

Combined, the NY teams could very well have been 6-1 at Week 4.

Well, that doesn't sound good about Houston. It sounds a bit better about Coles. I don't think that getting an x-ray really shows anything. Players get precautionary x-rays all the time. Hopefully Coles doesn't miss much time. I think that we can afford to lose Houston even though I probably like him as much or more as the other RBs. It's not like he's a star that will cripple the team to lose. Coles would, obviously, be a much bigger loss if he's out for an extended period.

I think so too... As someone that lived in Nashville for a while, I knew a lot of Tennesee fans and waht they told me was that they though Houston was a very good RB but wouldn't stay healthy enough to be a starting RB in this league.

Injury news

http://www.nj.com/sports/ledger/index.ssf?/base/sports-0/1159762814237350.xml&coll=1



Jets running back Cedric Houston suffered what is believed to be a hyperextended left knee late in the third quarter of yesterday's 31-28 loss to the Colts at Giants Stadium. He will undergo an MRI today, according to someone with knowledge of his medical status.

That person requested anonymity because of the Jets' policy against releasing injury information. It's not known how long Houston will be sidelined.

(...)

Although he appeared badly injured at the time, wide receiver Laveranues Coles seemed fine after the game despite being shaken up on the final play.

Too bad about Houston. He looked like our best RB.

Oh, and by the way, I am rapidly losing my patience with Mike Nugent. He has to kick the ball past the freaking 15 yard line on his kickoffs.

If that's all it is, Houston should return soon.

Going for it on 4th and goal from the 4 was a bad decision on 3 levels:


Bad coaching decision to go for the TD.


Bad play call to pass rather than run against a suspect Indy rush defense.


Bad decision by Pennington to force a bad throw, knowing that an INT would likely result in a touchback.


A moral victory, but a bad loss for the Jets. Now they have to go down to Jacksonville to play a desperate Jags team that can't afford to lose their 3rd in a row in front of their home fans.

Then again, making the playoffs was an unrealistic expectation, but at least the Jets are a young team that is playing better than most people have expected. As I've said, I believe the Jets are on the right path and will challenge NE for the AFC East in 2007.

A couple of points here:

I agree that it was a bad decision, but at least according to the Stadium scoreboard they were at the 2, not the 4. Also, I don't know if I would have run considering they had just run 3 straight downs and gotten negative one yard, if I remember correctly. The play call was a bit suspect, though, I agree.

That's the way I project it, but I'm thinking that there might be one or two of those very winnable games that they lose. Hopefully they make up for it by winning one or two of the ones that you have as losses. I think that they're very capable of beating Jacksonville or Minnesota if they get a few bounces, but I'm not confident at all about New England in NE or Chicago.

I'm in a bad mood but I have to say this. This team better win today. I don't want them playing well but just coming up short. They are playing a Jaguar team who doesn't have Stroud or Wiley. No excuses. I don't want to hear about moral victories after the game either. Just f*cking win the Goddamn game.

And another thing too....the NFL has to do something about these personal foul hits on the QB. They treat these QB's like 3 year old girls in diapers, its ridiculous.

Vilma and now just Barton have gotten flagged for two AWFUL personal fouls on Leftwich. Barton just cleanly tackled him for a safety and he gets flagged. Vilma had a clean hit on Leftwich earlier....flag. How about we just outlaw touching the QB??

This crap is ridiculous

I disagree. I think Chad is a good enough QB to win a championship. Yesterdays game was not a good example of that, but it also should be noted that that was the worst game he has ever had in his career.

TheoShmeo
10-09-06, 04:20 PM
I think Chad is a good enough QB to win a championship.
I think that's wishful thinking. Pennington can't zip the ball into tight coverage or throw an accurate long pass with any consistency. That was true yesterday and it's been true for the last several years. As a Pats fan, I knew that there was no way he'd drive the Jets down field when they got the ball after the missed field goal in week two. That was an admittedly tall order (90 yards, one minute and not timeouts), but to be a champion QB, you have to have the strong arm throws in your arsenal UNLESS you are lucky enough to have a ridiculously dominating defense.

dabomb2045
10-15-06, 06:24 PM
Glad we won, but not happy with how we played defense the last 9 minutes of the game. I've been ecstatic with the coaching staff this year....but the way they played the last 9 minutes reminded me of the old Herm staff who always played "not to lose" and never played "to win".

We just sat back on defense, rushed 3 guys, and let Harrington pick us apart. Why no blitzing?? Why not rush at least 4 guys?? The passiveness of the team towards the end of the game almost cost us a win. And its too bad because we dominated this game and played great the majority of it.

Hopefully the coaching staff learns from this.

I absolutely despise this "prevent" defense they decided to run in the 4th quarter that made the game waaaay too close.

That said, in a rebuilding year, I have to be satisfied with 3-3. Considering that originally it seemed like the Jets might not win 3 games all SEASON, I can't be too unhappy.

And Coles has to be one of the toughest receivers out there. Great game and all with a sprained hand. Pennington and the offense also had a nice rebound from the Jacksonville game, at least in the second quarter. So while it got waaaay too scary at the end (and Mangini needs to work on 4th quarter defense), it resulted in a "W", not a "L".

Yeah, I'm happy they won....the prevent defense pissed me off though. I dont understand why teams do it. You play GREAT one way for the entire game, and then you decide to change everything and just sit back and be passive. I hate it. Just keep doing whats working.

JeffWeaverFan
10-15-06, 09:43 PM
To be honest, I didn't see much of a change in the defense, rather Harrington started to throw the ball better. We were still blitzing here and there, like we always were, but Harrington was making great passes.

The bottom line though is we got the W. Our running game looked allright too, although I still want to see more of Leon Washington and less of Kevan Barlow.

Fumbles and special teams. You can't screw up either one and expect to win. Looks like Polian knew what he was doing in letting Edge go.

I agree. Edge's fumble was a disgrace. Giving up a punt return for a TD is even more of a disgrace. Still though, why is Green settling for a 40 yard field goal? That is no gimme at all. Let Leinart throw the ball at least one more time. Playing not to lose will end up with you doing just that.

An NFL quarterback will find receivers given enough time, it ALWAYS happens. Good god, it seems like 80% of the opponents' yards and points come in the 4th quarter while the Jets are doing their best to take 14+ point leads and win by 1

If they don't recover the onside kick from Detroit, they stand a great chance of being taken to overtime after leading by 14 with 4 minutes to go. This happens every week

There are times when they should blitz and they don't, but the entire thing is being way overblown. I think people are mistaking "not blitzing" with "not getting to the QB". The amount of times they blitz is not a problem, they blitz a fine amount of times, they're just having trouble getting to the QB.

Its not just blitzing, they don't even rush 4 guys most of the time. Watch the last 5 minutes of the game again (if possible), they blitzed on like the 4th downs and nothing else (the rest of the time they rushed 3 guys and Kitna had about 5-7 seconds each down to pick a receiver).

They definitely blitz a fine amount of times the rest of the game for a 3-4 defense, but they get away from that in the 4th quarter with a big lead, and its nearly gotten them beat 2 weeks in a row (17 pt lead w 9 minutes remaining and a 14 pt lead with 5 minutes remaning, facing 2 of the worst teams in the league. You have to close a game out better than that. I mean they made Joey Harrington into a beast)

I dont remember this happening. If this is true, why does the blitz fail at a much higher rate when they have big leads in the 4th quarter (why are they not getting to the QB anymore if they are still blitzing the same)? This doesn't make much sense to me, I'm pretty sure I saw them dropping all the linebackers back and just bringing 3 most of the time

Ahh, okay, so the only ones who know are the refs. :lol: Thanks for the reply. Yeah, that was one of the worst ref hits I've ever seen. We were all watching that from the stands, too, so we didn't see what the refs called. I'm actually surprised that the refs weren't watching the ref on the ground, too. They all seemed to be looking at Baker because every one of them threw their flag. It was actually pretty funny;you don't see every single ref throw their flag too often.

For most of the 4th quarter, they only rushed 3 guys. Same thing against Miami last week. Defense looked good for 3 quarters....looked bad in the 4th. Luckily for us we are playing bad teams right now. But you cant pull that stuff against good teams and expect to win.

JeffWeaverFan
10-22-06, 07:33 PM
Leon Washington is honestly a really good RB IMO. I know we were facing a team that was missing it's big time DT, but I saw really good things from Washington. He goes north to south when he hits the hole and then is very shifty and makes guys miss.

keg411
10-22-06, 10:47 PM
Leon Washington looked great today -- has a good burst and has potential to be a good RB in the future. Not to mention that the OL blocked much better in the running game than they have. Yes, the Lions are missing a key player, but it was still good to see any improvement.

I've resigned myself to seeing the "prevent" at this point after seeing it in one too many games... and even though I despise it, the team has tied it's W total from last year -- and has become extremely exciting and fun to watching. The offense is far from vanilla and even if the D has regressed, I actually find this team enjoyable, and they have some good players to build on in Fergueson, Mangold, Smith and Washington (not to forget about Rhodes and Cotchery who are two young players that are really starting to show something).

NO penetration at all. When is the last time we've seen a DL man in the backfield, or god forbid...a linebacker in the backfield making a play??

And a pass rush?? Hello?? Anyone?? Bueller....Bueller....Bueller??

That wasn't a reviewable play, which is why they didn't review it. Force outs are judgement calls. The only thing that they could have reviewed, by rule, was whether he was in bounds, which he obviously wasn't. But I think they got it wrong, and I am annoyed. It goes the other way, too. If they had ruled it a force out they couldn't review it to see whether it really was a force out. They would have been able to review it to see whether he had possession, but not whether he would have actually been in.

I'm a little annoyed that Mangini used his first (well, second, but the first of his two remaining) timeout there, because his not knowing that made it so that we didn't even get a chance at a miracle punt return. But it almost certainly wouldn't have made a difference.

Im not even arguing whether its reviewable or not. I know it isnt. What I'm arguing is how you cannot rule that play a force out.

That play is the definition of a force out. He basically already had the 1 foot down, and he would have easily gotten the 2nd one in. His body was in bounds, and he got forced out by the Cleveland player.

I can probably count 1000 times where I've seen a guy completely out of bounds, pushed out even farther....and he gets the force out call. The Jets?? Our guys is in bounds, gets pushed out....and we get f*cked by these blind ass refs.

I agree that it was a bad call, it just seems that a lot of people don't understand that it can't be reviewed (from Eric Mangini, evidently,(unless he just wanted to call a TO to get the refs to come over so he could yell at them) to the announcers and right on down to a lot of fans.) Bad call, though, and it could potentially cost the Jets a playoff spot, as now they will have to basically win every one of their remaining games other than Chicago and New England if they want to get in, which is unlikely.

Yeah, I think Mangini just used the TO to get the refs to come over so he could bitch them out.

As bad as that call was....its embarassing that we were even in that position. We got dominated and pushed around by one of the worst teams in the league. They dominated the line of scrimmage all day. We couldnt stop the run. Pennington was horrible....I dont think he even threw for 100 yards.

We made Cleveland's defense look like the 85 Bears. And our defense is just awful. As I posted earlier....why is our D line incapable of getting a push off the line on a running play?? Why are they always getting pushed back 2 yards?? This causes the O line to reach the linebackers, thus creating big plays in the running game. Anytime your secondary gets most of the tackles (as well as your LBs making plays 10 yards down the field) its not good at all. When is the last time we've seen Vilma, Barton, Hobson make a play in the backfield?? Something has to change real soon.

Well, if he waited to use the timeout they probably at least get a shot to block the punt or return it. They had about 56 seconds with two timeouts. The Browns might have had a situation where they could have snapped it and run around in the backfield and ended it, but they probably would have had to snap it on 4th down. Like I said, though, there's virtually no chance the Jets would have won whether he used the TO or not, and the problem with this game certainly wasn't his using TO or even the call, since, as dabomb said, they should have never been in that position. Still horrible that the refs blew that, though.

This is the most upset I've been by a Jets loss since the Pittsburgh game (obviously not that much, but I'm really angry by this one).

I don't like to nitpick on certain plays called by the coaching staff when I really like this coaching staff, but I must talk about this one. 3rd and 2 and they go with Brad Smith at QB in the shotgun position and have him hand it off to Leon Washington... I don't get that. If you are going to hand the ball off while in the shotgun position in that spot, you should have Chad as the QB so the defense thinks you'll be throwing the ball. That made no sense at all and really hurt us as we had to go for a 52 yard field goal which of course our brilliant 2nd round pick Mike Nugent missed...

I'm just really upset by this game. I was worried about it all week and we lost it.

I was pissed about that play too. Look, I have no problem using Smith in certain situations. But in order for that trickery to keep working....the Jets need to let him throw it once or twice. Teams have figured out that when he is in at QB or RB, the Jets are running the ball. They need to let Smith throw it a few times...even if its a simple rollout and a 5-10 yard pass pattern. At least it keeps the defense honest.

Yeah. Almost every time Smith is on the field he seems to get the ball, whether it is as a QB, RB, or on a reverse. It's really extremely predictable. They need to use him more on plays that they don't give him the ball.

Its obvious that if they played better, they wouldn't have to depend on the refs actually doing their job correctly. But regardless, you have got to be kidding me. The play was a touchdown within NFL rules, there is no "more perfect" than that. Besides which, if he threw it with more "zip" (which he can't) there is no way Baker makes a leaping one-handed catch which he barely made anyway

A little more zip and he might not make the catch. Fact is he did, he was in bounds by 2 feet, and he was pushed out. It's not like Chad should have to worry about the refs screwing the Jets.

edit: By the way, do you know anything about football? It was a perfect throw. If he put more zip on it, the timing would have been screwed up instead of perfectly timed as it was...

Exactly! I mean, this is a team that won 4 games last year and that has been winning with very young talent and a very soft schedule. Having a chance to tie a game that they weren't even good in and lose because of a crappy call bothers me.

However, I'd still take 8-8 from this team. I'd like to see them win one of the Minnesota, New England or Chicago games (even by fluke), but I'm not holding my breath.

Top ref implies error

BY RICH CIMINI
DAILY NEWS SPORTS WRITER

Mike Pereira refused last night to directly second-guess referee Mike Carey and his crew on Chris Baker's controversial non-touchdown in the Jets' 20-13 loss to the Browns last Sunday. But Pereira, the NFL's vice president of officiating, did suggest it was a blown call, admitting it would've been "easy" to overturn if it had been reviewable.

Appearing in his weekly spot on the NFL Network, Pereira was asked if he agreed with the call, which, upon further review, appeared to be wrong.

"It's a judgment call that the official has to make," said Pereira, commenting for the first time on the play. "You have to make it in snap time. He doesn't have the advantage that we all have at looking at this. It's not my practice ... to make decisions and comments on judgment calls."

Pereira said judgment calls can't be reviewed. But, while explaining why, he indirectly admitted a goof.

"All of replay tries to be ... based upon fact. Here, it really is judgment," he said. "While on this case it might be easy, it's like some pass-interference calls. If we said that would be reviewable, we'd look at some and we'd say that would be relatively easy. But for everyone that's like this, there are 10 others that involve so much judgment that you would really be heading down a slippery slope here."

Coach Eric Mangini received feedback from the league office on the play, but he declined to reveal the league's response.

Unfortunately we are gonna be 4-6 after our next 2 games. We arent beating the Pats in NE, or Chicago anywhere. Those teams are just too good and too physical for us at this point.

Which basically means we'd have to run the table to make the playoffs at 10-6. Its impossible. The Cleveland game really f*cked us.

Backup NT Rashad Moore, a 325-pound run stuffer, is expected to have a bigger role than usual Sunday in Foxboro. The Jets will beef up the line - literally - with Moore on the nose and NT Dewayne Robertson (317 pounds) moving out to right end in their wide-body look. They used the Moore-Robertson combo for 10 plays in the last game. "He's a big body, and those big bodies are hard to move," Eric Mangini said of Moore. The Jets expect the Patriots, led by running backs Corey Dillon and rookie Laurence Maroney, to attack on the ground.... Backup RB Cedric Houston (knee), who has missed four games, appears ready to play, but he could be inactive again because of a logjam at running back.

dabomb2045
11-10-06, 08:04 PM
Its about time the Jets gave Moore a chance. There is a big reason why the 3-4 hasnt worked well....we dont have big interior linemen.

Look at any successful 3-4 in this league, and they all the Sam Adams/Vince Wilfork-type run stuffers on the line. The Jets have smaller guys like Robertson, who 90% of the time get pushed 2-3 yards off the line of scrimmage by the opposition's OL. This means the linebackers either get picked up by bigger OL (and since our LBs are small, this is a problem) , or just end up making plays 6-7 yards downfield...instead of up by the line or in the backfield.

This should be our #1 situation to address in the offseason and in the draft....run-stuffing interior linemen.

Ellis has been dissapointing. I dont know if its that teams are focusing on him now since Abraham is gone....or he is just not performing. I'm gonna say its a combination of the two.

A 3-4 also requires some pass rushing from the LB spots. They need to find replacements for Chatham and Hobson.

You can also throw in Thomas...Though Thomas has had a decent season, he can easily be upgraded to me...And all these articles saying he's primed for a big contract this offseason baffles me. He hasn't been a gamebreaker or done anything to merit a big contract...A half-decent year doesn't wipe out the previous 4 bad ones, and for a player who is known as a good pass-rusher to get no pressure at all as an OLB and bad in coverage...

Pass on him and Hobson, both can be upgraded.

As a Pats fan all I've got to say is...

The Pats got very lucky on that bogus RTP call. In truth, NE has played uninspired football for most of this 1st half. I'm embarrassed that we needed a BS call to keep us in the game. The Jets have been the better football team in this half.

As for that crappy call, thank Martz, Polian, and Dungy who, while on the NFL Rules Committee, whined their way into favorable officiating and set the pattern of officiating which we see today. After Palmer got injured in the playoffs last year, Marv Lewis replaced Dungy on the Committee, and lo and behold!!! We get BS RTP calls!!!:o:mad:

Good to see that a Pats fan can admit that was a bogus call. See my post in the QB thread....this isnt even about the Jets (even though this call has screwed us this time). Every week this late hit/roughing the passer crap seems to get worse.

That was an absolute BS call. There was no way that the defender could have altered his path to the quarterback. After all, he was only 2.3 millimeters away from Brady when he threw the ball.

I've got to admit, football has some of the dumbest rules of any sport on the planet. All to protect a couple of baby quarterbacks and kickers who are afraid to get hit. Think about it. Football is a violent sport, and the players are encouraged to hit people. It's the nature of the game. Then the NFL doesn't like when some players are hit too hard.

I hope that tomorrow on Mike & Mike, Greenberg and Golic go off on the NFL for this stupid rule. After all, Greenberg is a big Jets fan, so I'm sure he was watching.

I pray to god that it is. I dont understand what is so hard to comprehend about it being awful (unless you are up by minimum 14).

An NFL quarterback, by definition, can throw the ball pinpoint to a receiver given lots of time and noone pressuring him. However, that skill degrades exponentially with pressure, forcing sacks, fumbles, interceptions, and incompletions. You will occasionally give up a big play, but thats way better than giving up 17 yard passes every single down

edit: and in any case, the Jets were blitzing the entire game before that or at least rushing 4 guys, and it basically worked (except for the Patriots second to last drive)

The announcers did say that it was technically called correctly by the refs, but that the rule should be changed. (Something about how he lifted him and how that is technically a penalty even if it comes just a split second after the throw) Oh well, it doesn't matter much now. :D

I havent been this excited about a Jets win since the playoff win against the Chargers 2 years ago. It feels so good to finally beat the Pats. Feels good to finally knock Brady around alot....we got alot of pressure on him today and really hit him good several times (the Hobson hit was a BS penalty call).

At the time, I and many others thought taking D'Brick and Mangold was a great move, but it's really showing now. This entire season, the pass blocking has been strong, and now the run blocking is very good, as well. D'Brick has been solid, he'll continue to develop and become a shutdown, franchise LT. Mangold has been our best lineman, and is doing a tremendous job of pushing the pile on the run. This has really been the key for us this season, great coaching and great play by our OL.

Pennington will be fine, the running game will continue to be solid, and the offense will continue to be fairly strong. The most encouraging thing about today was the defense. The run defense is still spotty, and the prevent at the end of the game was dangerous, but overall we were much more aggressive, and really kept Brady from getting into a rhythm. I loved how well we disguised our blitzed, one of the very few times I have ever seen Brady confused by that. 4 sacks and many more hurries.

Great team effort today. Next Sunday is going to be huge. I think I heard that the FOX pregame crew is going to be out there, so I hope that the crowd gets pumped up, and come kickoff time, the place is rocking.

We can win this game.

I will be at the game....I cant wait. It shocked me to see the Jets dominate the line of scrimmage the way they did...on both sides of the ball. Take away that one 50-yard run by Dillon, and the Jets really shutdown the running game. And our O line really pushed the Pats D line down the field alot. Barlow had his best game as a Jet by far.

And I also like how aggressive we were on defense. We blitzed alot and we knocked Brady around alot.

One thing to remember about Barlow. Everyone else got their playbook and began studying it during the mini-camps in April. Barlow didn't get his until mid-August. Now that he is starting to "master" the playbook, you combine that with the improved run blocking, and that could lead to him being a big factor for us down the stretch. He looked a lot more patient today, waiting for holes to open and blockers to get out in front. He was very impressive.

Well, when the man treats the handshake like he's being forced to dip his hand in a warm pool of feces, that's pretty telling.

Then there's this article:

http://www.nytimes.com/2006/11/09/sports/football/09patriots.html?ex=1320728400&en=190994f41580f730&ei=5089&partner=rssyahoo&emc=rss

HEMPSTEAD, N.Y., Nov. 8 — The question was begging to be asked: What’s going on with you and Eric Mangini?
But Bill Belichick (http://topics.nytimes.com/top/reference/timestopics/people/b/bill_belichick/index.html?inline=nyt-per), the New England Patriots (http://topics.nytimes.com/top/news/sports/profootball/nationalfootballleague/newenglandpatriots/index.html?inline=nyt-org)’ coach, responded as if it were a brainteaser. Seven seconds of silence elapsed without an answer. After the question was rephrased, Belichick begrudgingly addressed his relationship — or lack thereof — with Mangini.
“We’re two head coaches in the same division playing a big division game this week,” Belichick said Wednesday during a conference call with reporters. “That’s how I would characterize it.”



Granted, we don't know everything aside from what we have seen and read, and he didn't necessarily trash Mangini in the press, but he wasn't very positive or even willing to talk about their relationship. I'm not pretending to be in Belichick's head or anything, but he seems extremely cold, and there doesn't seem to much in the way of reasons for his behavior. It's very curious.

IMO, there are three points of contention...

1.) Mangini took the Jets job against Bill's advice.

My Take: Mangini not only made the right move, it was a no-brainer. His friend was the GM, the owner wanted to model his team after the Pats. So, there was the promise of commitment. Plus, the Jets were offering $2.5mil per year. A no-brainer.

2.) The Mangini-led Jets dipped their fly in the Deion Branch ointment.

My Take: This threw gasoline on the fire.

3.) Last week, Mangini said he wanted to bury the hatchet with BB.

My Take: BB would never admit to the media that he had a problem with Mangini. Yet, Mangini admits BB is mad at him in the media. This must have tweaked the crap out of BB.

Overall, I understand why BB is angry. He got Mangini his foot in the door with Parcells Jets, gave him his big chance to shine in NE, and now he jumps to a hated rival, a team BB has a bad history with, and tweaks him in the process. Kind of like a long-time employee who started with a company, was entrusted with the company secrets and now works for a competitor, seeking to undermine his old company.

Bottom Line: Mangini made a hard decision, with consequences, but made the right choice. As for all the other stuff, hey, when you become a hated rival: In for a Penny, in for a Pound.

BB should let it go, suck it up and move on. He needs to straighten out the offense and put a leash on McDaniels, the OC.

JMHO :)

I like him. He had a great year in 2004. According to KC Joyner, in 2004, Samuel was playing so well that he allowed the Pats to shift coverage to help out Randall Gay on the other side, after Ty Law went down. Samuel had a rough 2005, but so did the entire secondary. The Pats had until 11/06 to extend him while having some of his bonus count towards the 2006 cap. Now that the deadline has come and gone, it means that Samuel and the Pats are far apart and Asante will test the FA market, unless the Pats tag him. I would. You know Mangini will pursue him. He was Samuel's position coach before Crennel left.

Samuel is great at run support and isn't afraid of contact. He knows BB/Mangini's system and is still young. As a Pats fan, it would be a sad day if he goes to the Jets. If I'm BB/Pioli, I'd make sure that never happens. Even if it means trading him or keeping him on a one year tender. You know, Samuel's agent, who happens to be a friend of a friend btw, will use this to drive the price up.

Samuel is great at run support and isn't afraid of contact. He knows BB/Mangini's system and is still young. As a Pats fan, it would be a sad day if he goes to the Jets. If I'm BB/Pioli, I'd make sure that never happens. Even if it means trading him or keeping him on a one year tender. You know, Samuel's agent, who happens to be a friend of a friend btw, will use this to drive the price up.
Sounds good. Well, the Jets secondary isn't really a problem with Dyson and Miller playing well. I guess he could replace Dyson if we cut him (I'm not sure what that would do to the cap).

On defesne, the Jets will need to focus on a big, run stuffing DT, a pass rushing DE, and another LB.

Im not a big fan of Dyson....although I guess we could live with him for now. Agreed that DT, DE and LB are more pressing needs then the secondary.

Nick Mangold (NYC): Within 2 years, I will be the best center in football. True or false?

AMYanks
11-14-06, 01:48 PM
Samuel would be a nice signing, but I don't know if Mangini will be like Belichick when it comes to paying big time money for DBs. I'd certainly welcome him, it would continue the trend of making our secondary younger. Right now it looks like we could use him. Dyson's good and Barrett is solid, but Miller still has a ton to learn about the position.

As far as Mangold goes, I do believe he could become the best center in the NFL within two years. When we drafted him, I was so excited because he was arguably my favorite player in the draft, and I felt he would be an All-Pro caliber center within two years. This year he's been playing better than I expected. He's been the best lineman on the team, and I hope he atleast starts the Pro Bowl.

The two biggest holes are definitely run-stuffing NT and pass-rushing LB. If we can find a pass-rushing DE, that'd be nice, but since we play the 3-4, I'm not too worried about that. The first two are of much more importance. Although I'd like to see what we have in Bryan Thomas now that the defense is blitzing more. Through the first half of the year, when the defense wasn't that aggressive, he played fairly well. Now that we're blitzing more, Thomas can display his true pass-rushing talents.

A guy who finally got unleashed Sunday was Victor Hobson. He is a liability in coverage and usually cannot cover a TE one on one. But him finding the open holes to get to Brady was awesome...

Instead of his usual drop back and be a problem, he rushed Brady and caused alot of havoc to my surprise. I do feel he can be upgraded this offseason, but hee did have a good game and would like to have him as that breather/situational guy.

I'd expect Barlow to have a big role in the offense again, this week. Chicago's defense is fast, I don't know how effective Washington will be running to the outside. Barlow will have to pound it up the gut and overpower them.

Coles gets some of next year's Green

Taking advantage of salary-cap room before it dries up at the end of the season, the Jets restructured the contract of WR Laveranues Coles last week, the Daily News has learned.

They took $1 million from his 2007 base pay and moved it into this year, doubling Coles' salary over the second half of the season. It was a smart bookkeeping move by GM Mike Tannenbaum. The length of his contract hasn't changed; he's signed through 2009.

The Jets still have more than $4 million in 2006 cap room, according to an NFL source.

After the season, they will look to lock up WR Jerricho Cotchery to a long-term contract. He's signed through 2007, but is due to make only $460,000 in his final year. As one of the Jets' fast-rising players, he deserves a big payday.

CHAD CHANGE: Chad Pennington took a staggering $6 million pay cut in the offseason, but he's still going to end up as one of the NFL's highest-paid quarterbacks this year.

He has recouped most of the $6 million in playing-time incentives, and he would secure the last chunk by playing a complete game Sunday against the Bears. Total 2006 compensation: $9million. He's due to make "only" $3.9million in '07, including a $2 million roster bonus due in March....Owner Woody Johnson is so into his team that he stood in the driving rain last Wednesday to watch practice. ... Opposing scouts are raving about rookie C Nick Mangold.... The Jets have 19 offensive touchdowns, only two shy of last season's total.

The defensive players loved that Bob Sutton didn't turn gun shy after Pats RB Corey Dillon beat a blitz for a 50-yard run. ... FB B.J. Askew is steadily improving as a blocker.

Cotchery definitely needs to be signed long-term. Same with Rhodes.

The fumble that was unbelievably overturned really hurt us. I'm still stunned that they saw conclusive evidence to overturn that one. I guess the NFL has decided to, "When in doubt, f*ck over the Jets." Find me one play that was non reviewable (or that was reviewed and turned over for our side) in that the Jets got a break. Just one. All season, find me one.

There have been about 5 that have completely f*cked us.

Saying that, although we outplayed that team and were obviously just as good, we made the mistakes. The onsides kicks was idiotic. Chad's first INT was horrible. His second was too. I thought they should have kicked the FG twice and they didn't.

Tough loss, but we can still make the playoffs.

Tough, but understandable loss. After the high that was the New England game, there was bound to be a letdown. Better for it to be against a superior team than an inferior one.

The calls piss me off, though. Awful reversal. Not that Chad didn't screw up both times the Jets were driving, but that call felt like a big momentum swing. I didn't like the Onside kick at the beginning of the second half, but Mangini, Westhoff and co. like a certain amount of trickery... but they already did it once this season and that's usually it for weird plays like that.

Playoff still possible with the remaining schedule. It's not going to be easy, but Minnesota looks weaker than expected and Miami on the Monday night will not be pretty, so hopefully they can pull something off. Not bad for a "rebuilding" "project" overall.

AMYanks
11-19-06, 06:35 PM
1. Pennington was awful.
2. Onside kick to start the second half was a dumb decision.
3. Being screwed over by the refs when they overturned the fumble.

The team as a whole looked good considering their opponent, but those three things are the main reasons we lost.

dabomb2045
11-19-06, 07:28 PM
So yeah...the best part about being at the game today was tailgating. The game sucked. The crowd was into it early...but the game being boring as hell made the crowd dead for most of the game.

Obviously the biggest play of the game was the Pennington INT in the end zone. I have no clue where he was trying to throw that ball. He was double covered, and that doesnt even count Urlacher reading the play and jumping in front to pick it off. In a defensive game like that, 3 points is huge. Throw the ball away and take the FG. Pennington was brutal all game. He missed so many open receivers. We really had alot of chances to make plays....and we just blew it.

The overturned fumble was a joke too. Just another example of how the Jets continually get screwed by the refs.

26 and counting
11-26-06, 02:59 PM
The Jets really dominated Houston, judging by the score. I didn't get to watch the game, as I just got home. So that puts the Jets at 6-5, and in position to possibly make a run at the playoffs.

Final score: Jets 26, Texans 11.

It was really scary when Chad went down briefly -- thank goodness not only was he okay, but he had a great statistical game.

Though it was also scary (for another reason) when Mangini decided to go for it on 4th and 1 and then all the receivers spread out to one side. However, I have zero complaints about the coaching. Minimal penalties, no clock management issues -- most solid win all season.

Lundy only rushed the ball 8 times. I saw the first half. I'm thinking, why doesn't Houston just put the ball in Lundy's hands? The Jets Run D is not good. Instead, once Lundy gets stuffed on 1st down, the run gets discarded. Houston had no chance of winning this game via the air against a good Jets pass D. The Texans played good D most of the game.

I think our run D has greatly improved from earlier in the year.

Great win all around today. Defense played extremely well, Chad finally put together a very solid game again, the WR's were excellent, and Nugent was 4/4 on FG's including a 54 yarder - which could really boost his confidence.

From watching in person, the run defense looked really really good. The Texans couldn't do ANYTHING on the running plays. Then, once they were down, Carr just kept passing and passing and passing. I saw no sign of the bad rush D of the past 10 weeks.

Oh another mention -- the tackling on defense was excellent in the passing game. They never seemed to let the Texans get extra yards and players were always there after the catch. I saw very very few missed tackles. It was a joy of a game to watch defensively (as I said before, it's a big success if you can make me not hate the 'prevent').

There is a difference in the Jets run defense recently, and it's definitely an improvement. Earlier in the year, teams were consistently getting 5-6 yards a carry every time they ran it, with the occasional big gain. Now, the defense has been able to consistently hold the rusher to 3-4 yards a carry most of the time, but still a couple of times they allow the big gain. Like against New England, they did a nice job against them, but Dillon had one big 50 yard run. Other than that run, the Pats were averaging under 4 yards per carry.

It's still not great, but Robertson is continuing to improve at NT, and thus the rush defense has slowly improved.

And I can't blame the Texans for abandoning the run early. They were getting absolutely nothing done on the ground, but Carr was able to move the ball by dumping it off to the backs.

If the Jets run the table, they'll finish 11-5 and 8-4 in the AFC. The only problem is that the Jets have 3 road games and the loss at Cleveland will haunt them. Moreover, Miami has become a better team since Harrington took over at QB. That makes this week's game a tough one for the Jets.

Since two of their losses were to NFC teams, Cincy will most likely clinch tiebreakers with the Jets based on AFC record.

If KC can split the Ravens/Chagers games, and win the rest, the Chiefs would beat the Jets on tiebrakers based on common opponents:

Miami - Jets: 2-0 ~ KC: 0-1
Jags - Jets: 0-1 ~ KC: 1-0
Cleveland - Jets: 0-1 ~ KC: 1-0
Oakland - Jets: 1-0 ~ KC: 2-0

TOTAL: Jets 3-2 ~ KC 4-1

Of course after 12 weeks, the Jets are exactly 1 game out of last place in the division.

Yeah, but I think that while it was technically pretty dumb, the "spirit" of what they were saying was true. Most experts expected the Pats and Dolphins to fight it out for the division title, the Bills to do so-so, and the Jets to go about 3-13 or whatever. If the Jets go 8-8 or 9-7 and finish last in the AFC East, that's different than going 4-12 and finishing last in the AFC East, I think.

Dammit, then we're doomed. ;)

But the Jets had better beat Green Bay this weekend. :lol:

9-7 probably isn't going to be good enough for a playoff spot in the AFC this year, and there might even by a 10-6 team that doesn't get in. I can easily see Denver beating SF, Arizona, and one of their other opponents and KC beating Oakland, Cleveland, and one of their others. That means that if Jacksonville, the Jets, or Cinci get to 10 wins one of the 10 win teams will be left out. I'm not too confident about the Jets' chances to make the playoffs unless they run the table, which I tend to doubt, though it is possible. My gut feeling is that the Jets go 9-7 and miss the playoffs by a game.

Yep. Someone mentioned that most of the players on the Packers came from warm weather colleges and don't have experience with the real Lambeau. Thus, that homefield advantage is not one.

Plus, the Jets have already showed they can play well in adverse conditions...

Someone puts a gun to my head, I'm taking the Jets and frankly, I don't think it'll be a close game.

Also, I heard that Mangini is going to go to 2 RB's instead of 3. Any confirmation on that? I'd love to see a Houston/Washington duo.

The New York Jets placed Tim Dwight on injured reserve Saturday. Rookie wide receiver Wallace Wright was moved to the active roster and will be with the team when the Jets face the Green Bay Packers Sunday at Lambeau Field.

Dwight, a nine-year veteran from Iowa, started twice this season on offense and was fourth on the team with 16 receptions. He was the Green & White's primary punt returner and averaged 10.4 yards on his 14 returns. Dwight was battling a thigh injury but will now miss the Jets' final five regular season games.
