Since 2000 the jets have faced the patriots 30 times the Patriots have beaten your team 20 times, you have won 10 of those games, One of those 10 was a playoff win in 2011.

Out of those 13 years the Patriots have swept your team 7 times. And the jets have swept the Patriots 1x in 2000 before Brady. You have only split 5 times, last year being 2010 was the last time you split before last year. I like my odds on my prediction.

Your team made the same boneheaded moves mine did offense does not win games in a clutch defense does.

Our secondary is stronger than it was last year. Pryor is a huge upgrade over Landry. Addition by subtraction with Cro. Milliner really took some steps forward the last quarter of the season. Who says Geno will even be the QB to start the season. We made no boneheaded moves. Your last sentence is so funny I literally am doubled over laughing

lol he has it at a 50/50. He doesn't have us beating them. Essentially he's saying we are going to drop all 4 games to the NFC North, which will not happen.

No thats not what im saying im saying it could go either way as the last time you played us you beat us by 1 point. And the Vikings depends on who's Qb either Bridgewater or Ponder.

Yeah but even a blind squirrel can find a nut Sycro, Geno may suffer from a sophomore slump we don't know. Maybe Decker is really all that idk. I still think his seasons were a product of Peyton. I can realistically see 7-9 from them and that's if they beat the Lions, Vikings and Raiders. maybe 8-8 if they lose a key game which is bound to happen or win one not expected such as against Pats or Dolphins.

I really don't think you'll be seeing Geno in there. They have to go with Vick.

Sophomore slump worse than last year? Not sure if that is possible. I wasn't aware you watched all 16 games of the Jets last year.... Decker isn't a top 5 receiver but he isn't a slouch either. Go check out his stats when he had Duck armed Tebow as his QB

Chris Johnson is big upgrade over Bilal, Amaro will be a nice safety valve for whoever the QB is. It's undeniable we have improved on that side of the ball. Better backup QB. Better WR. Better RB. Better TE. What I'm most worried about is the OL. Mangold and Brick took steps back last year. Howard was replaced with Gia, and our guards are below average.

Could you even name our starting WR corps from last year without googling it? It was pathetically bad.

O It was bad, Holmes before injury, Ford, Keller before injury that's about all I know of lol. I am not saying you didn't upgrade im just saying its not enough this year to put you over the top because simply put you were in a very bad position. It should take 3 years to properly rebuild a team to a playoff contender if done right. This was year 1 for you guys, you should see marginal improvement.

See you don't even know who we were trotting out there lol. Ford wasn't on our team last year. Holmes was absolutely non-existent. Keller tore his ACL as a member of the Dolphins last year.

Here is the stats of our receivers. One word: Pathetic!

Kerley - 523 yards 3 TD
Holmes - 456 yards 1 TD
David Nelson - 423 yards 1 TD
Jeff Cumberland - 398 yards 4 TD
Kellen Winslow - 388 yards 2 TD
Stephen Hill - 342 yards 1 TD

That is downright shameful.

I'm not saying this offseason will put us over the top. I'm not saying we even make the playoffs (we most likely won't), but we are not a 3-4 win team. Sorry. We had less overall talent last year and won 8 games with what should be considered the worst offense in the league.

Dec. 21 Patriots New England Patriots -- Loss
Dec. 28 Dolphins at Miami Dolphins -- Loss

By my clock i have 4 likely wins and 3 that can go either way which puts them at 7-9 by my prediction

I'll still say 8-8, but that does look rough.

You marked the Raiders as a 50/50, but the Titans are a sure win? C'mon man. We beat them 38-13 last season. I would surely expect a closer game this time around, but as of right now I expect us to win that game.

I think it will certainly be closer than last year. What I can't understand is us going to TEN for the 3rd time in a row . Raiders 50/50 made me . If we were going to Oak, then I could understand why he would say that. I wouldn't agree but I could understand. But they have to go on the road across the country. They aren't winning. Sorry Nav

I'd say 8-8 as well.

It must be due to logistics and a scheduling conflict that you guys have to come back to Nashville again. Two times in a row happens...

In 2012 you guys played here because we played the entire AFC East and it was our turn to host (we played the AFC East in 2009 and played you guys in your house) and in 2013 we faced off due to both being 3rd place teams in our divisions... and it was our turn to play in Nashville. Now we are facing off again due to both being 2nd place teams, so it should be the Jets turn to host.

Same garbage thing happened to us with the Seahawks last season. We played them in Seattle in 2009. It was our turn to host. But we had to go back there due to some sort of scheduling conflict where they were already traveling to the east coast too often.

Hopefully that makes sense.

I have us going 8-8 as well... I cannot expect any better until I see the results. I've gotten my hopes up too much only to be let down.

2 times sure. Not 3 consecutive years in a row. Not sure what the excuse for our matchup is since neither team is on the west coast... Not sure how you can expect more until the QB is resolved. Really same for us.
