New England Patriots at Buffalo Bills, Jacksonville Jaguars at Baltimore Ravens, and Miami Dolphins at New York Jets Game Thread
Miami Dolphins at New York Jets, Dec 28, 2008 4:15 PM EST
This week's game thread will be different from the fourteen that came before it this season. It covers the three games involving the Jets this weekend. Jets fans will have their day begin at 1:00 with the Buffalo-New England tilt and continue at 4:00 as Baltimore and Jacksonville prepare to engage. Jets fans will only be able to glance at that contest in passing because nothing it relevant unless New York defeats Miami at the same time. Gang Green needs to win its own and hope one of the other two breaks its way. Even with all the negativity and hopelessness that has surrounded this franchise for the past month, I am not ready for this thing to end. I cannot and will not resign myself to another year of heartbreak until the final gun sounds in either the Meadowlands or Baltimore, and it is officially over. If you are going today, get in your seat early and make the stadium so loud that Chad Pennington cannot hear himself think. Leave everything on the field.
Leave any pre or in game thoughts for any of the three critical games in the comments section.

All right, here we go
Hopefully the Jaguars can pull it off. But it is odd that our interests are converging with Pats fans’ this much.

Yes!
Hey, if we win and the Ravens lose, we both make the playoffs. That’d be fine with me—-except we’d probably play you guys next week!

3 seed hosts, so you come to Foxboro, MA

Yeah
Basically the same situation as two years ago, as I recall. The Pats won the first game that year, the Jets won in Foxboro, and then the Pats hosted the Jets in the first round.

Cotch has to catch that
would have been tough, but still

Well, the Dolphins are helping us out
Gotta take advantage.

Ricky Williams looked fast

He really burned it up
/end ridiculously overused joke.

Great
Favre continues to show symptoms of color-blindness.

Way too many
He has such a quick trigger finger.
Well, Stover just missed a FG.

The Dolphins shot themselves in the foot there
between the dropped pass and those penalties. They really had a chance to get something going.

The incomparable Alvin Pearlman with the TD.

There’s a costly penalty for our side.

Jets ball!

They do that exact play all the time
with Brad Smith. Favre lines up in the slot, and then Smith runs right up the middle. He’s a tremendous athlete, but that’s basically the only play they’ve called for him this year.

They ran Smith on a reverse against Oakland
that went for like 40 yards. Since then, we only see him in the Wildcat.
thats all good and well
but in that situation, that was a dumb play call
Mets & Jets... It's that simple.
You're right
I forgot about the Oakland play.

TOUCHDOWN!!!
And then…dammit.

Oh no
17-7 Ravens.

Trusnik has been awesome
I hadn’t heard of him, either.

More good news:
The Ravens have 1st and goal at the Jaguars’ 1-yard line.

And I'd much rather win and put the Pats in
than listen to an offseason of, “the Jets are idiots for letting Chad go.”
I'd love for us to continue dominating against Miami
We’ve won 17 of our last 21 against them!

Either that or an awesome acting job. ;-)

Do certain media members tend to slobber too much when discussing him?
Sure.
Is he an incredibly tough and persistent player? Absolutely.

I don't care about Belichick or all of their SB's
I still want this game. I hate the Fins more than the Pats.
Even though we're down
I’m feeling good. I feel like the Jets played better in the first half. The Barton drop and second Favre pick are the difference.
You know Baltimore's pulling for Miami
No way do they want their rookie quarterback going up to see Belichick.
Absolutely

Great awareness by Coles
He really saved them there.

Now we go for two.

Excellent.
