He picked San Diego as the overall AFC favorite.
he is doing a favor for bb... pumping the jets up so they get cocky
and screw the pooch
I doubt it. I think the Jets will win this Sunday, don't think
they will make it to the Superbowl though. If you listen to
Simmons' podcast at ESPN, most of the commentators he had on
thought the Jets were pretty good (not Simmons himself of course!).

i was just kiddin'
as of late the jets have potential because their qb is not giving it
away. that has been the problem all year...
They stacked the box the entire first half on Sunday and we ran right
through them. If I'm Schott I do exactly the same thing as Sunday
until they stop it. If the Defensive line of Cin continues to get
blown off the LOS Sunday, nothing will change.
Agree 100 %. The playoff game will be very much like what we just
saw, but less drastic as Cincy will bring their "A" game. Still...
The Jets win the LOS on defense and offense. Not much passing as the
ball will be like a rock, much like at the Meadowlands with Edwards
and Ocho. No way will Rex take a chance on letting Sanchez throw over
20 times unless they get behind by two scores.
I think you will see quite a few slant plays. I think they restrict the
roll outs with Sanchez as the passes get riskier across the field.
Rex mentioned in the post-game press conference that Brad Smith can
throw the ball hinting that is possible. I bet you will see him rolling
out with a limited passing menu.
One more thing they have to prepare for, react to, etc.
Amen to that! I don't think teams will be lining up to throw money at
Edwards this off-season.
Actually I would love to see the Jets run the option with Sanchez.
As far as the last game, the more I think about the ball being frozen.
Look at all the passes the Bengals WR's dropped.
Does it concern you that the running backs only averaged 3.5 yards a
carry? If they figure out how to stop Brad Smith, the running game
might have more trouble..
I don't know how that caused him to mis-time his jump for the ball. He
has all the physical ability in the world but seems to lack the
instincts.

Burf, short passes against a stacked box, especially flares and WR
screens don't work because the D is in terrific position to start.
If it is not too windy, it may be time for a flea flicker, a play action
up and in or up and out pass or even a fly off a fake WR screen.
But Cincy's Qbs are very tuff and Shott has not shown the touch,
accuracy and judgement to assure a happy ending.
IOW, while I agree with you of the need to open it up early if we are to
do so at all, I think Rex puts it all on his D.

I like him for two more years at the current rate plus 30%. He bugs me
but is very tough & physical WR, especially on blocking.
I think Tedy's still feeling the effects of his stroke...
Even with not jumping at the right time, the ball still hit him in the
hands and that should be a catch.
The important thing is not the RB average, it is third down
efficiency. I think they were aces in that category.
I'd prefer 0/0 on third downs.

React to yes. They either prepared for it or not and our using a Smith
pass will only impact our next opponent, hopefully this year.
I have to think the reason he has not used it is because his accuracy is
so suspect the WR has to be by himself to be open.

Which could happen when they pull Sanchez off the field.
