9/20/09 Jets are now 2-0 , yes its
early in the season but I just watched the Jets ,
Stuff New England , They pressured Brady all game
and caused him to have the worst game I have ever
seen him play. I know he`s tough but he looked rattled
and the team committed offensive penalties they would
never usually make ...I think we knocked Brady down
like a dozen times. Gonna be a fun year !!

Rex Ryan brings D - Jenkins , Ellis
, David Harris , Bart Scott , Kerry Rhodes , Revis
and some attitude. Should be a fun defense to watch
that gets after the QB , Stuffs RB`s , and smashes
WR`s after the catch.
Mark Sanchez -I saw one play , his first ever in
the NFL , in pre-season...It was a beautiful 40 +
yard pass down the sideline .....sweet !!!
Jones, Washington and now Green
should make for a three headed monster running attack
assuming the line stays healthy.

- JETS BEAT THE PATS - Go Favre - FIRST PLACE BABY
The
Jets, after winning the overtime coin toss Thursday
night, faced a rabid Gillette Stadium crowd and a
Patriots defense riding the momentum their offensive
teammates had provided at the end of regulation.
But Favre led a Jets regular-season version of "The
Drive," a 14-play beauty that never gave the
Patriots' offense a chance. It ended with Jay Feely's
34-yard field goal that gave the Jets a 34-31 victory
and sole possession of first place in the AFC East.
Favre finally had put his signature on a Jets win,
doing so by exuding a confidence that he might not
have felt but spread to his team nonetheless.
"It is very special to have a guy like that
step into your huddle," said receiver Jerricho
Cotchery, who had five catches for 87 yards, including
a 46-yarder in the second quarter that should be a
catch-of-the-season candidate. "I didn't see
any nervousness on his face; I saw a quiet confidence
on his face, so to speak. When he stepped into the
huddle, we knew we were going to be able to get it
done because that's the way he's been this entire
year."
Thursday was Favre's 42nd career win after being
tied or behind in the fourth quarter. No. 41 came
Oct. 26 when he hit Laveranues Coles with a TD pass
with one minute left in a 28-24 victory over Kansas
City. But that was at home, against the struggling
Chiefs. Not on the road against a team that had come
back from 24-6 and 31-24 deficits, forcing overtime
with an improbable 16-yard TD pass to Randy Moss with
one second left in the fourth quarter.
But once defensive captain Kerry Rhodes made his
prescient "tails" call on the overtime coin
flip, a sense of belief took over the Jets' sideline.
"When you have Brett Favre coming into the huddle,
it makes everybody else in the huddle step their games
up," said Leon Washington, who electrified that
same sideline with his 92-yard kickoff return for
a TD in the second quarter. "We're fortunate
to have a guy like that leading us."
Favre, given how unstoppable the Patriots' offense
had been in the second half, believed the Jets needed
to score on their first possession of overtime.
"I felt like it's either now or nothing; this
is your one shot," Favre said. "They were
rolling on offense, our defense was tired - it was
all or nothing."
Favre threw incomplete to Washington on his first
pass attempt of the drive but went 5-for-5 thereafter,
by far the biggest being his 16-yard strike to rookie
tight end Dustin Keller on third-and-15 from the Jets'
15-yard line.
"I think Brett just . . . he instills confidence
in the group," Eric Mangini said. "There's
a sense of ease when he has the ball. You feel he's
going to get it to the right place."
