Yeah, I admit to having the unfortunate lot of being a fan of this less than stellar franchise. The main thing that bugs me about them as a team is that they could actually be far better than they are. They have a track record of taking on the best teams in the league and fighting them tooth and nail for every inch of the field-and then taking on the London Silly Nannies and getting wiped. I honestly believe it is all about psychology; they need to go out and give it 100% every game, but they don't. And, as I think was demonstrated in their most recent bout, they either give up too easily or they get too cocky and become careless. If they went into every game and gave it all they have, they could honestly be one of the more formidable teams in the league. But that is just my take on it.

Let this comfort you: your Jets could beat the ever loving shit out of my Browns any day of the week. The Jets could not bother practicing, every player gain 600 pounds from drinking beer and eating pizza all week, the coaches could be high as a kite and baked out of their minds, the owners could fire every one on the team and just send out one 3 year old water boy...and the Jets would STILL kick the f*** out of the Browns. The Cleveland Browns are my basis for believing in magic, the supernatural, and the spiritual world. They MUST be cursed somehow, because no other team in history has been as bad, for as long as the Cleveland Browns. Everyone remember that wacky year that the Detroit Lions when 0-16? I promise, had they played the Browns that year, they would have been 1-15. I PROMISE each and every one of you!!! My team sucks that much ass.

Hey Jets Fans. Quit your bitching. You've won a Superbowl. Learn to appreciate that your team has actually accomplished something in it's entire existence.
Signed,
A Vikings Fan

Yes the Jets have talent. Have had talent for a number of years. Their problem is 3 fold though.
1) They haven't had a QB that can actually win a game for you in years. All this talent around him and the best they can ever get is a game manager type. It's the NFL in 2014 you don't win without a QB that can make plays and not kill your team.
2) As good as some of their units have been over the years (their D-line for example this year), that's as bad as some of their other units on the same side of the ball are (seriously that DB group is terrible). That's been a common theme for years. Couple years ago, great running game...terrible passing game.
3) An extreme players coach has a short shelf life, and once they spoil they need to be thrown out. Yeah he's great for the vets when that players coach comes in...after a few years you get more and more young players in and they think it's a damn country club. Those young players start to outnumber the older players, who would try to keep them in line, and accountability in the locker room goes in the toilet. When they brought in a new GM they should have brought in a new coach too.
I don't believe the Jets problem is lack of talent. This year it's their schedule (first 9 games they get the who's who of QBing against them every week), and there is a legit chance they could be 1-8 going into the bye, just because of the QB's and teams they face (maybe 2-7...they got Buffalo in a few weeks). Next 4 weeks they get Stafford, Rivers, P. Manning, Brady, throwing against that secondary....yeah good luck.

Yeah its tough being a Jets fan but lets take solace in knowing that the Jets don't have the heartbreaking history the Bills do.

Blah Blah Blah it's impossible to be sorry for you. You were just in two straight conference championship games. I'm a diehard Lions fan. I watched every game during their 0-16 season.

No idea why, but I derive a perverse satisfaction from watching the Jets suck.
