I expect either a close game or a blowout
.
both teams have been finding ways to win while giving their fans heart
attacks.
I'd wish the Jets good luck but I wouldn't mean it/
Pats 28-17.
The Pats are flawed defensively and their offense can be stymied by
means of pre-post snap confusion. The Jets are underachieving on
offense, lack a bona fied pass rusher and have issues at the safely
position. What does that mean ??? IMHO, the game wont be decided by
the two talked about units; the Pats offense and the Jets defense.
The Jets offense will be the surprise of the game. I expect them to
leave their Sominex back home in Schotty's office.
Jets 30 Pats 27
*Bonus prediction... If the Jets dont wait for the playoff's to do
it... We may just see Brad Smith throw a pass out of the Wild Cat
tonight.
Thanks Ray, I feel the same way. You and Mark and some blasts from the
past from this NG will be the only reason I will not be completely
depressed if we don't dominate and win.

John, I think it goes opposite. I think we win a close game of 10 points
or less and risk being blown out if Rex/Shott cannot get the offense
going. No way we can take out four receivers all game against this team.

"Dominate?" I'll be very disappointed if the Jets don't win. But I
have no delusions that the Jets will dominate. That's just
unrealistic. The Patriots are a very good team that bends but doesn't
often break on defense.
my spider sense is acting up again... i have a feeling that there
will be a bright silver lining to the leonhard injury... may be a big
play by e. smith or as you say... a big play by the punt returner
filling in for jimmy.
=====================================================================================
anybody who bets this game is crazed.
Being one of the elder statesman here:
Patriots 63
Jestards 0
yup
all I ever needed to see was the odds on the "card" if you can pick just 4
winners they pay off at 10-1
picking 4 winners from all the pro and major college games looks easy.
yet the Mob rakes in millions every week.
i only saw fit to bet on one game this year... my five star pick...
not saying that i did bet, mind you... only that i saw it fit to do
so.... i saw it fit to bet 100 bucks on the cowboys beating the giants
the week after gatter took over... and some one saw it fit to give me
some money after the game for some strange reason
LOL
Pats 48
Jets 24
Jets have only beaten one winning team this season - the Pats - and won
a lot of close games over really bad teams. They're overrated.
Pats have beaten 4 teams .500 or better and are a better team then they
were in September.
And the Jets still have to get by Chicago and Pitts - both who will be
playing hard to stay on top of their division.
This is the Pat's game to lose. The Jets only win if the Pats don't come
to play, but after 11 days of prep, I can't see that.
Barring injuries of course.
I did leave my fingernails long...so that I'll have something to chew
off tonight....lol

And, as I posted earlier, I think Smith goes into the Box to replace
Leonhard where is is a little less of a liability.

By the way, for those of you who don't live in Mass,
it's bitter cold and very windy out there.
and extra windy on top of that hilltop in Foxboro
J.
What's sweet about this is not only that this is a Monday Night Football
game that is a great matchup, but it's the first of four good Monday
Night games.
Great December for football...now...where's the peanuts...
:)
Unfortunately, Rex is too dumb to do that. Eric Smith is a POS. But Rex
is the moron who exposed him.

The walking personality disorder Ryan is no different than the walking
personality disorder McDaniels who just got fired. The sooner the Jets fire
Ryan the better off they will be.
