It’s no easy task being a New York Jets fan. I am not even sure I can effectively articulate what winning a championship means to me. I recognize how pathetic that sounds, coming from a 43 year old father and husband. You would think a more mature perspective might have developed eventually. I try not… Read more

Well it’s time to take out the ‘punching bag’, Eric Smith, for some more jabs.  Smith did not exactly inspire most Jets fans with his play this past season.  Visions of him trying to chase down tight ends every week are still etched in our memories, but before you just toss poor Eric to the… Read more

When we launched JetNation.com seven years ago, the original idea was to provide a home for Jets fans so that they could talk about the Jets without the fear of being censored.  Please remember, these were the dark days of the internet, Twitter and Facebook had not yet been born.  Thanks to the hard work… Read more

When the Jets announced their 2012 coaching staff, they announced that they had retained quarterbacks coach Matt Cavanaugh, who previously was “being evaluated.” This is one of those non-moves that should have Jets fans shaking their heads. Brian Schottenheimer leaving the organization and Tony Sparano coming in should have meant a quarterbacks coaching change. Usually… Read more

The Ongoing Chess Match That is the NFL – Rick Allen I was watching the news the other day and heard a reporter ranting about the beer drinking Neanderthal football fan.  I realized that the most astute football fan must be pretty sharp in order to keep up with the ever changing NFL.   By that… Read more

They will have to maneuver the 2013 salary cap to ensure space for that year given the ramifications of moves made on the 2012 cap.  Most of the numbers come from Jason at NYJETSCAP.com and I want to thank him for helping with… Read more

Statement from New York Jets Chairman & CEO Woody Johnson “On behalf of the New York Jets, I would like to congratulate the Mara and Tisch families, Coach Coughlin and the entire New York Giants organization. It was a closely contested game that showcased all of the best elements that our sport has to offer… Read more

Mark Sanchez has been taking jabs from within the sports world, but it’s quickly moved on to other entertainment mediums. These are two clips from this week. Each are about a minute. The first video was from “House, MD.” Sorry for the crummy video, but it’s the only one I could find. http://youtu.be/v7S-_WjwXNA The next… Read more

Lost in the hype of Super Bowl week is the fact that the Pro Football Hall of Fame will be announcing their 2012 class of inductees on Saturday evening.   Former New York Jets running back  Curtis Martin, who is one of 15 modern era finalists, is in his second year of eligibility and reportedly has… Read more

I Like Rex Ryan.  But there were times during this year’s disappointing campaign that I wasn’t sure I did.  His sidelines at times appeared chaotic, he needs to improve his game and clock management skills, and most obviously, he must be better tuned in to the psyche of the players in his locker-room.  But these… Read more

For the second year in a row, running back Curtis Martin is again on the list of finalists to be inducted into the Pro-Football Hall of Fame. If you like the Jets on Facebook or follow them on Twitter, you might have noticed their “Curtis to Canton” campaign? That’s what it is. Martin had a… Read more
