Are the Jets trying to buy a title?
By Tyson Rauch With the hiring of Rex Ryan, the New York Jets are now on their fourth coach since 2000. Ryan, like his predecessors, comes to Gang Green without any NFL head coaching experience.

Happy 4th Birthday JetNation
Written by Max On February 16, 2005 the name JetNation.com was registered. The goal at that time was to create a home for Jets talk. A place that was fun and allowed fans to speak their mind about the team, good – bad or indifferent. Over that time we have seen these head coaches: Herman… Read more

Are You Sure You Want Sanchez?
By Mike Dietrich I was listening to sports talk radio and they were talking about quarterbacks that came out of college early. I decided to research how many starting quarterbacks had less than four years of college. This analysis has nothing to do with the ability of a player. If you’re a gambler, you analyze… Read more
Buyer Beware: Jets Should Not Pursue Ray Lewis
By Tyson Rauch Allow me to preface this article by stating that I am a huge fan of Ray Lewis. I admire the way “Big Play Ray” plays the game, from his intensity and leadership, to his focus and determination. Lewis is a first ballot Hall of Fame player that reinvented the middle linebacker position. … Read more
40 Years and Counting…
By Tyson Rauch I would like to take a second to apologize to my family and close friends. I want to apologize for all of my sarcastic and bitter remarks as they pertain to this week’s Super Bowl. After some self-evaluation I figured out where it all comes from: January 12, 1969. January 12, 1969… Read more
Could Favre force his way to Minnesota?
By Tyson Rauch You can call Brett Favre many names but the one thing you cannot call the man is stupid. Every move Brett makes is calculated, from his average guy image, to his press conference answers, to the way he uses sports writers as puppets to get his message out to the public. Currently… Read more
The Case For Clemens
By Joseph Grinwis Somewhere over the past year, Jets fans have forgotten what Kellen Clemens brought to the table in 2007. The Jets were 1-7 (including a Week 2 loss in Baltimore in which Clemens started) when then Head Coach Eric Mangini handed the reigns over to the second year pro. Clemens posted a 3-4… Read more

Debunking the PSL Pressure Myths
By Tyson Rauch The New York Jets, after a monumental late season collapse, decided to fire their head coach Eric Mangini.

Is Woody Johnson really too cheap to pay for a winner?
By Sperm Edwards There’s plenty to criticize. PSL’s are just offensive. Frankly, anyone who pays more than a nominal amount like upwards of $1000 is a friggin’ fool. Many of the high-profile contracts didn’t pan out, or were outright idiotic. But I can’t think of any players whose presence here was sacrificed in the name… Read more
