New York Jets at New Orleans Saints Game Thread

New York Jets at New Orleans Saints, Oct 4, 2009 4:05 PM EDT


What a difference four years makes.

That was the last time the Jets faced the Saints. They were two of the worst teams in the league and played in one of the most unwatchable games in NFL history in primetime the Sunday after Thanksgiving. The ESPN crew covering that game made it out to be the 1972 Dolphins against the 1985 Bears.

This game might not have quite those historic tones, but it's a matchup of an elite offense against an elite defense. The winner may rate at the top of most power rankings next week and establish themselves as the Super Bowl favorite.

It will be a tough one for the Jets. This is the toughest challenge they've faced so far, and that dome is a tough place to play. They're due for a bad game. Plus, how could you be upset with 3-1? I would have signed up for that at the start of the season.

With that said, they've got a much better shot than a lot of people are willing to admit, and this game could show us this is not just going to be a good season. It could be a special one.

You have to realize...

Except the most desperate team in the league.

You gotta admit, he’s something special, he HAS something special that transcends physical attributes, pedigree, and history.

That penalty gets me angrier than the interception.

He’s a rookie. There are going to be ugly moments like that.

There’s no excuse for the penalty. He did the exact same thing against Houston. That’s the same mistake a second time. The real kicker is the illegal block was never going to affect the actual play.

Someone explain to me Schotty's 3rd and short playcalling

3 times on 3rd and 1, all 3 times they ran it and went 3 and out. Finally he runs it, but its 3rd and TWO and they’re short and its another 3 and out. If any of those are converted it keeps the Saints off the field longer gives the defense more rest and possibly gets the game closer.

Yes, it is one game, but it says a lot about Brian's faith in Sanchez

The first drive playcalling was by far the best drive of the game, but Sanchez got beat by a good defensive play from Sharper. For some reason, Schottenheimer totally folded his hand after that play. They could have won it if they gave Sanchez a chance to get his confidence back.
