All Not Happy In Jets Camp
The New York Jets were undefeated going into their game this past weekend at the Oakland Raiders. After suffering a 34-24 beating, giving up over 200 yards on the ground, the powerful Jets, their fans and even a famous former player think that perhaps the team is not quite as good a team as they might think they are.
Hall of Fame QB Joe Namath said as much after their loss Sunday. New York head coach Rex Ryan responded by saying Namath doesn't know his team, in a story referenced on ProFootballTalk.com. The chink in the Jets armor continued with the news that QB Mark Sanchez might have broken his nose, although it won't deter him from his date with the Baltimore Ravens next Sunday night on national TV, according to another story on NationalFootballPost.com.
On the injury front, CB Antonio Cromartie has a bruised lung and his status for the Ravens game is yet to be determined. With All-Pro Darrelle Revis expected to cover Ravens WR Anquan Boldin, Cromartie's absence could create a huge void, especially given the recent success of rookie WR Torrey Smith.
BaltimoreRavens.com says the Ravens will not have any sympathy for the "broken" Jets, and the more issues the New Yorkers have, the less attention they will place on their next game as they worry how to respond to the world's toughest media market. The Ravens won't overlook or have any letdown for this upcoming game, but the more we Ravens hear about the halo crumbling over Rex Ryan's head, the more we just chuckle and smile.

Mangold is also questionable with a high ankle sprain.
Water covers 2/3 of the Earth's surface. Ed Reed covers the rest.
State your case, back it up with facts and reasonable opinions ...

I feel bad for them if Mangold can’t go again. There backup is an undrafted rookie and I’m sure he will crap his pants at the site of Ngata and Cody.

The Jets are collapsing. McFadden ran all over them on Sunday. They are not playing like the same team that made it to the AFC championship the past two years. As long as our DB’s can stay with Holmes and Burress, we should win this game. But it all starts with our pass rush…

I think "collapsing" is a bit strong
We’ve certainly had problems and the team is playing very differently than it has in the past. Our run game hasn’t gotten off the ground yet and our run defense certainly was suspect last week although McFadden has really turned a corner and is playing like a top 10 pick. The one difference is Sanchez is actually playing a lot better and has been putting up some pretty solid numbers despite a lower completion percentage.

Joe Namath isn't in that locker room
I find it hard to believe that one could criticize Rex’s team for not preparing as hard as some other teams do. He’s built up a cache that proves otherwise. Smh.
Namath doesn't quite know when to shut up.
I love the guy because he won us our only Super Bowl but nobody in New York really listens to him anymore.

This team doesn’t want any of this. We are going to smack them around for a few minutes on each drive, then launch a 30 yarder to Dickson or Torrey.
Their defense is all hype just because it is Rex Ryan’s defense. Cromartie is maybe the most overrated CB in the league, Kyle Wilson is still young, but we all know about Revis. Bart Scott is not as good as people think. And their D-Line is definitely nothing special. 170 yards on the ground to Oakland? Their O-Line is not even half of what we have, Yanda and Oher are going to punk these guys all game long.
Ravens win 26-16

Like this
The O-line, once the backbone of the offense, is broken, and the chemistry that made it special is gone. Not only do they seem incapable of winning matchups to create running lanes, the pass blocking is just as ineffective. Sanchez has been sacked 9 times already and is responsible for 5 turnovers in 3 games. Sound pretty bad? Now consider that this is against the league’s 23rd, 13th, and 28th ranked defenses respectively.
If their offense has played that bad against those defenses, just think about what we could do to them. I think we are going to see Sanchez on his back alot Sunday night.
"'If there isn't a bone sticking out of my leg, I'm playing" - Marshall Yanda
agreed. It’s just a completely different team. A lot of their success came from their ability to run and stop the run in years past and they are struggling to do both right now.

Romo was carving them up as well passing wise in week 1 then decided to hand them the game.

Revis is an absolute beast, we all know that. However, Cromartie and Wilson have been getting beat pretty badly on most plays. And Cromartie is hurt right now and might now play Sunday night.
This is going to be a pick your poison type game. They really have no idea what we are going to do. STL had the worst rush defense in the league and 4th best pass defense, everyone thought we would run on them and we saw what actually happened.
I expect far more balance in this one though. They are a tough defense, so wearing them down with the run will be key come the 4th quarter.

Cromartie has been hit or miss
Wilson has really stepped up his game since last season. But considering our issues, I would be lying if I said I was looking forward to facing your defense this week.

Well the Jets will get exactly what they need to get back on track with a victory over the Ravens, or they’ll lose yet another game and the Pessimists will throw up more depressing FanPost over at Gang Green. My guess is the latter, should be a run one to watch…

We’re 2-1 right now and they’re complaining about everything. It’s not like we’re the Dolphins. Even if we end up at 2-3 after the road trip doesn’t mean we still can’t make it to 10-6 with a good run.

10-6 will have your team on vacation

Come on
pump the brakes on the Bills a little bit. Yeah it’s a nice start, but to pencil them in for 11+ wins is a bit premature.
I think its still early to tell but the bills are becoming a good team
This is the same team that took both the ravens and steelers to overtime last year which is not a easy thing to do then this year beat the patriots. Im not sure if they will be a playoff team or not but I wouldnt sleep on the bills

I'm not sleeping on them
I just think it’s crazy to say if the Jets go 10-6 they’re 3rd place. A ton of teams start hot and finish miserably. Remember a couple years ago when we were 3-3 and the Broncos were 6-0 and we beat their ass and they ended up finishing 8-8. Bills have some nice pieces, but until they prove it over a whole season, I’m still gonna be skeptical about them.

I think there will be more parity
And therefore, 10-6 might do it. Don’t get me wrong, I’m a fan, I’m hoping for us to be better than 10-6.

Jets vs Ravens
Both team had bad losses. The Ravens at Tennessee and now the Jets at Oakland. I don’t think that we Ravens fans should underestimate the Jets. Rex will have that team ready for anything we throw at them. Harbaugh has got to keep these guys focused. If so than we should win however I expect a nail biter. 13-10 Ravens.
