Jets 32 – Jaguars 3

By Phil Sullivan Posted On September 18, 2011

The Jets wanted to play better at home this year and so far the results are good. They are 2 and 0 at home and 2 and 0 on the season. Some highlights:

The defense had 4 interceptions and 2 sacks
Rookie 1st round draft pick Muhammad Wilkerson continued to prove he is ready to play on this level with a 1st quarter safety
Mark Sanchez was 17/24 on the day with 2 interceptions and 2 touchdowns
Dustin Keller had 6 receptions for 101 yards and a touchdown

The offense line continues to play at a level lower than expected. Wayne Hunter was called for multiple penalties today. Nick Mangold left the game with an injury (ankle) and overall the running game hasn’t found their stride yet. Shonn Greene had 16 carries for 49 yards and a TD, while LaDainian Tomlinson had 6 carries for 8 yards. It is nice to see the Jets winning football games while they work out the kinks in the running game.

We will have an update on the Nick Mangold injury and the JetNation Report Card tonight.

I started JetNation in 2005 and have been a New York Jets season ticket holder since graduating from high school. My dream is to see the New York Jets win the Super Bowl. Until then, I will be right here on JetNation writing, dreaming and talking NY Jets football.

In typical New York Jets fashion, the team dropped a decision to the LA Rams yesterday but one of the biggest story lines had more to do with Aaaron Rodgers than it did the New York Jets.
