Have any minds changed about the Jets’ recent moves?
Welcome to SB Nation Reacts, a survey of fans across the NFL. Throughout the year we ask questions of the most plugged-in New York Jets fans and fans across the country. Sign up here to participate in the weekly emailed surveys.
The month of October was as busy for the New York Jets as any month for any team in recent memory. The Jets were a constant source of headlines as they made major move after major move in the midst of their 2024 season falling apart.
Of these big moves,...
Leave mailbag questions for this week in the cleverly marked “comments” section.
Has Charles succeeded in replacing Justi Hardee on special teams?
One interesting offseason move the New York Jets made was to allow special teams captain Justin Hardee to walk. This forced Irv Charles into a higher-profile role just as potentially significant rules changes were coming into effect.
Last season, we expressed some concern over whether letting Hardee go and relying on Charles to step up was a risk.
While Charles emerged as someone who could be molded into a Hardee-style all-round special teams monster in 2023, there were signs that letting him take over that role from Hardee full-time...
The Jets give a game away to the lowly Patriots and end any remaining hopes for this season
The New York Jets squared off against the lowly New England Patriots on Sunday. It didn’t go well. Playing a team with the worst record in the NFL, on the longest losing streak in the NFL, with the worst roster in the NFL, playing a backup quarterback most of the game, the Jets tried mightily to give the game away, and eventually the Patriots graciously accepted the gift. A season that began with such high hopes now lies in smoldering ruin. The...
Bringing your daily links to the NFL’s New York Jets
Good morning, Gang Green Nation. I hope you’re all having a great start to the day. The New York Jets take on the Houston Texans on Thursday Night Football on Halloween, and for a short time, they were the favorites in the matchup. That’s likely because Houston will be without wide receivers Nico Collins and Stefon Diggs. However, that still may not be enough for this Jets team to overcome. New York wasn’t able to beat teams they should have, including a Patriots team on Sunday without their starting quarterback....
The New York Giants take on the Pittsburgh Steelers tonight on Monday Night Football
Monday Night Football, Week 8. Tonight the Pittsburgh Steelers host the New York Giants. Kickoff is scheduled for 8:15 pm EDT. The Steelers are 5.5 point home favorites against the Giants according to FanDuel Sportsbook.
The 2-5 New York Giants come into this game losers of two straight. In those two games the Giants have been outscored by a combined 45 - 10 score. Needless to say, these are dark times for the Giants. They have played well on defense, ranking 11th in the NFL in...
Another week, another loss, another set of anti-game balls
The Jets lost their fifth straight game in Week 8. This time they were defeated by the New England Patriots. The previous meeting between the two teams, the Jets dominated. That was also the last time the Jets were in the victory column.
It’s time to give out the anti-game balls.
Greg Zuerlein: Let me start out by saying it’s weak to say Zuerlein is the reason the Jets lost. There’s no reason a game against the Patriots should be decided by a couple of kicks. That said, it’s undeniable that...
It’s that kind of season.
How unique was the Jets’ Week 8 loss to the New England Patriots?
Of course these numbers don’t tell the whole story of the game. I’m sure almost all of the other 750 teams in this category turned in dominant performances. The Jets, meanwhile, played an exceptionally sloppy game, committing 8 penalties, wasting 4 timeouts to avoid delay of games, and missed a pair of kicks. The defense also wasn’t as dominant as New England’s yardage totals would suggest. The Patriots’ lack of production was due in part to their receivers’ inability to hold onto...
It’s that time of year again.
It’s late October. That can only mean one thing for the New York Jets and their fans. It is time to start focusing on the next year’s NFL Draft.
With the Jets 2-6 and looking hopeless, we turn to the future.
If the season ended today, the Jets would own the fourth overall selection in the 2025 NFL Draft.
It’s ugly.
With their loss to the New England Patriots, the New York Jets are now 2-6 and on a five game losing streak. The team is now in 15th place in the 16 team AFC.
1. Kansas City Chiefs (7-0)
2. Houston Texans (6-2, win over BUF)
3. Buffalo Bills (6-2, loss to HOU)
4. Pittsburgh Steelers (5-2)
5. Baltimore Ravens (5-3, 2-2 AFC)
6. Denver Broncos (5-3, 2-3 AFC)
7. Los Angeles Chargers (4-3)
8. Indianapolis Colts (4-4)
9. Cincinnati Bengals (3-5)
10. Miami Dolphins (2-5)
11. Cleveland Browns (2-6, 2-2 AFC)
12. Las Vegas Raiders...
Bringing your daily links to the NFL’s New York Jets
Good morning, Gang Green Nation. I hope you’re all having a great start to the day. Shout out to Mr. Wells for holding down the fort over the weekend as usual. The New York Jets lost to the New England Patriots yesterday in the final moments of the fourth quarter despite the Patriots losing their starting quarterback in the process. It was an embarrassing performance to cap off an embarrassing season, and at this point the Jets are just one giant disaster. The team put all of their eggs in...
This feels like some next level trolling by the oddsmakers
The New York Jets took their sixth defeat of the 2024 season on Sunday afternoon with an ugly 25 - 22 loss to the lowly New England Patriots. Prior to the game the Patriots had the worst record in the NFL and the longest losing streak in the NFL. Now the Jets have joined the Patriots in the cellar of the AFC East, a far cry from preseason expectations of contending for a title. The Jets led the game deep into the fourth quarter, but the Jets defense was unable...
