A Simple Look Back

PrintI know this is a dead horse by this point, and you all realize the Jets earned their way into the Playoffs. Even so, let's focus on an overlooked aspect.
Sunday night the Jets needed to win to get in. Had they lost, the Texans would have made the Playoffs. They were the closest competitor. Why did the Texans need help instead of controlling their own destiny? The Jets dominated them in their building Week 1.
The Jets got in because of that dominating performance over the next team in line. Remember that the next time you hear some hater complains about a tainted Playoff spot as if such a team existed.

Depends whether Jenkins is playing or not.
Jenkins just owned that team that day. Man i really wished we had him going into the post-season.
Still think the Jets would man handle the Texans if they played tomorrow. Like Rex said the Texans are soft and they cannot handle a physical D. As we all know Patriots D is way overrated and definitely has no presence

As a Texans Fan
I fully know that game comes back. And hell I do like the Jets. You guys do deserve to be there. For what Indy pulled that was a complete pile. And then Cincy. Well not all Cincy, you guys did beat them pretty bad… but not playing all of their starters is kinda weak.
I am not mad at the JETS at all. And with Houston gone I want them to go all the way. You beat Houston head to head, and that I tip my hat. But for not showing thier best, I want Indy and Cincy to fall hard. They need to learn you play every game, not enough to get locked in.
Its not the JETS that most Houston Fans are mad at, its Indy and Cincy. Over Us, you have the upper hand.
