SBN Texans Blog: Battle Red Blog
Inactives:
CB Drew Coleman
CB Marquice Cole
LB Ryan Fowler
RB Shonn Greene
TE Matthew Mulligan
QB Kevin O’Connell
G Matt Slauson
No surprises here. Greene has a rib injury. The rest are the bottom of the roster. Erik Ainge is the third quarterback over Kevin O'Connell if for no other reason than Ainge actually knows the system.
Here we go.
It's been over 8 long months since that bitter December night in the Meadowlands.
The Mark Sanchez and Rex Ryan Eras begin. This is the first step to finding out whether this is the coach-quarterback combo to take us to the promised land.
This is a pretty important game. The next three weeks see home games against New England and Tennessee and a trip to New Orleans. The Jets need to take care of a beatable opponent.

Lose today and 0-4 is a real possibility

I see them beating New Orleans, but thats just me

Jets are 5-0 this decade in openers in even numbered years and 0-4 in odd numbered years.
Let’s try and change that.

Wow, you're right
Now that I think about it, they were killed by the Colts, Chiefs, and Pats.

The problem with the sched is that if they go 4-1, thill fell like they have nothing else to accomplish and fall apart like last year, hopefully Ryan wont let that happen

Oh crap, nice run by Brown
"I Can't Wait Until Tomorrow...'Cause I Get Better Looking Every Day" Joe Namath
Gholston in starting?

Nice! With Schabs history, we'll be seeing Grossman in there soon

What a great day for Baseball
"I Can't Wait Until Tomorrow...'Cause I Get Better Looking Every Day" Joe Namath
Sanchez needs to throw the ball deep, there sticking 8 in the box
"I Can't Wait Until Tomorrow...'Cause I Get Better Looking Every Day" Joe Namath
Mark better watch out, he almost threw a pick
"I Can't Wait Until Tomorrow...'Cause I Get Better Looking Every Day" Joe Namath
Our defense is looking good
"I Can't Wait Until Tomorrow...'Cause I Get Better Looking Every Day" Joe Namath
Even with 2 of there starters suspened, just think how much better it would be if they were playing
"I Can't Wait Until Tomorrow...'Cause I Get Better Looking Every Day" Joe Namath
BTW Prince
My teams getting Bruce Harper, ull have to suffer with the next Lasting Milledge
"I Can't Wait Until Tomorrow...'Cause I Get Better Looking Every Day" Joe Namath
The O's have a much better chance than us
The Mets aren’t even that good at sucking; they got a late start.
2009 Mets---Mission: Bryce Harper!
The D is looking really good right now
Scott is all over the place but let see how they look later in the game, too much of a typical Jets fan.
Our offensive line is doing great in pass protection, it would help if NYs receivers could get open
"I Can't Wait Until Tomorrow...'Cause I Get Better Looking Every Day" Joe Namath
Heads-up play from Sanchez
This drive has made me pretty excited.

i hear ya, just hope they finish it the right way

Brick needs to chill out.
Sanchez looked awesome on that drive against a pretty good defense. Could’ve been 6 if the O line held up on 3rd and 5, but a great drive nonetheless.
Howd we score? Had to step away for a few
"I Can't Wait Until Tomorrow...'Cause I Get Better Looking Every Day" Joe Namath
Great to see our D stepping up against an above average offense, the Baltimore Jets are ready to fly!
"I Can't Wait Until Tomorrow...'Cause I Get Better Looking Every Day" Joe Namath
Now if only the Orioles could scap together a few more runs and sweep the Yanks for the first time in 20 years....
"I Can't Wait Until Tomorrow...'Cause I Get Better Looking Every Day" Joe Namath
All I know is the team hasent had a winning season since I was 4
"I Can't Wait Until Tomorrow...'Cause I Get Better Looking Every Day" Joe Namath
That backer came in untouched
"I Can't Wait Until Tomorrow...'Cause I Get Better Looking Every Day" Joe Namath
SLATON! We got lucky
"I Can't Wait Until Tomorrow...'Cause I Get Better Looking Every Day" Joe Namath
Oh man
Terrible throw. Hartsock would have run all day with a good pass.

Nice poise under pressure
"I Can't Wait Until Tomorrow...'Cause I Get Better Looking Every Day" Joe Namath
Sanchez is playing better than I expected
"I Can't Wait Until Tomorrow...'Cause I Get Better Looking Every Day" Joe Namath
It's pretty odd
On first and second down, he’s been average at best. On third down, he’s made the throws he needs to make.
2009 Mets---Mission: Bryce Harper!
Sanchez, Cotchery, and the defense have all been great. The weekly Fantasy Focus is hereby discontinued.

With one out he caught the ball, and was about to throw it into the stands thinking it was the third out, letting Turner score from second
He should do that more often

Not sure I understand the strategy there
What happened to working the sidelines? Another running play, followed by a short pass up the middle?

BEYOND MY WILDEST EXPECTATIONS!
This defense is SHUT DOWN SMASH MOUTH !
Sanchez is makes me say to myself “ok, don’t start getting stupid thoughts about instant all-star.” But what else to think??!?
They are flying around on both sides of the ball. This is unbelievable.
Mark does his best Brett Favre imitation.

Hey gang
Sanchez looks good today. I expected some rookie jitters, but he had a strong first time NFL start.
