Question: who is Clyde Gates? Answer: He’s the Jets’ fourth?…fifth?…sixth?…string wide receiver who left Monday night’s game with a shoulder injury and didn’t return. In fact, Gates was so far down the list of options that he was nearly cut before injuries devastated the receiving corps. What? You mean you didn’t know that about Clyde… Read more

Finally! A Jets game fans can be proud of, even if they lost to the Houston Texans 23-17 and it’s from the “moral victory” perspective! Yes, it’s a glass half full view, but the Jets did show a lot of spirit. Even though they were knocked in the mouth repeatedly, they got up and stayed… Read more

It isn’t frequently that an NFL team gets shut out, but the Jets pulled it off this week, losing 34-0 to the San Francisco 49ers. The Jets defense wasn’t great – they didn’t do well stopping the run – but the defense was helpless to counterbalance the completely inept offense. When the offense wasn’t going… Read more

As ugly as the game against Pittsburgh was last week, this one against the Dolphins was worse. The only redeeming quality was that the Jets walked away with the win in overtime, 23-20. The offense was completely inept through most of the game.  The receivers and tight ends had drops and miscues. The running game… Read more

The Jets started the day with a touchdown but never found the end zone again, losing 27-10 to the Pittsburgh Steelers today. If the Jets miss the playoffs by a game, they can point to this one and say, “If we’d played a good game, we’d have won.” The Steelers were injured. Troy Polamalu and… Read more

Mark Sanchez wasn’t kidding when he said the New York Jets were saving their best stuff for the regular season. Sanchez and the Jets knocked out the Buffalo Bills, hard, 48-28 in Week 1. This must have been sweet for the Jets who, since the preseason ended, have been listening to the media declare their… Read more

Since Rex Ryan arrived in New York, the media has swarmed around the Jets. It’s obvious now that owner Woody Johnson prefers it. With no Super Bowls to talk about, and the Giants winning two in the last five years, stealing the back pages (and sometimes the front page) is all the Jets have sometimes… Read more

The Jets lost to the Carolina Panthers tonight 17-12, and they still haven’t scored any touchdowns, but there are positives to take away from this game. This is the kind of game most fans expected last week, where the team looked better than in its first preseason game. Instead, there was almost nothing positive to… Read more

New York Giants 26 – New York Jets 3 The “MetLife Bowl” was ugly for the Jets. Forget that they lost to the Giants (and the Giants get to keep the really cute Snoopy statue for the next year). It’s preseason, who cares who they lose to? The bigger issue is that the Jets have… Read more

Anyone paying attention going into this first preseason game against the Cincinnati Bengals knew the main storyline was the quarterback “controversy.” Neither quarterback made a particularly strong case for themselves, numbers wise, in their limited playing time. Mark Sanchez started the game and played one quarter. He was 4-6 for 21 yards with no turnovers… Read more

The Jets practice at Cortland today was closed to the public, but the press was still around to give us a picture of what was going on. The offense wore the black jerseys today, but looked “lethargic” according to Brian Costello at the Daily News. The offense got to wear the black jerseys for outplaying… Read more
