    HUGE win at home against the Fish, now let's get our first winning streak going.

    Closing out the first quarter 2-2 will give us the momentum we need to make a playoff run. Can we shut down an offense that just put up 44 points? If our defense plays like they did yesterday, I think the answer is yes!

    Jags offense seem mediocre.

    Jags Defense seems to be for real with Coughlin and Marone now in their organization, that's where my concern lies

    I'll take another game where Bowles coached well and the players played fast, smart, and good overall but with a different result. Can't afford to keep winning meaningless games against bottom feeder competition if we want to land a Darnold or Rosen....

    This is not going to be an easy game with that Jags D. Their D played lights out weeks 1 and 3, and for the first half of week 2 (and then the Titans lit them up).

    Pass protection is going to be huge for this game, as the Jags can really get after the QB. At least the offense is not scary at all. Honestly, both the Jags and Jets are built similar: rely on strong defense, and hope that your offense doesn't screw up
    Neither team is built to come back from being down 14+ pts.

    Woulnd't be shocked if its a 3 point game - can go either way. Both teams are similar, they have a better defense IMO, we have a better offense. Depending on which Bortles shows up will be the deciding factor.

    I've been wavering back and forth about this game. Pre-season, on paper, I had this game as a definite win for the Jets.
    Watching the Jags' defensive performances this season leading into the 1PM Jets/Fins game, I couldn't see the Jets winning.
    Post Jets/Dolphins game, I believe either team can win.

    This should be a great football game to watch. Now I'm planning to go to the stadium this weekend.

    Jags defense is scary as shit, and Fournette will be a tough task. Can the Jets get to Bortles and generate some turnovers?

    Think that's the key, will Bortles play like ass or will he look like a stud like he did versus the Ravens. Fournette may make Lee and Davis look awful if he reached the second level.

    We're in a win-win situation; we'll either be 1-3 and in the running for a top tier draft pick, or we'll be 2-2 and within the thick of the AFC hunt after 4 weeks.

    Blitz, blitz, blitz all game long. Jags don't have a great receiving corps with Robinson out. But urgh just thinking about our inside linebackers against Fournette, it's going to get ugly

    Jacksonville plays good in London most of the time. It will be a tough game. I think since it is at home the Jets have a great chance to win. Need to play like they did yesterday though. Bortles could easily pull a Cutler and be terrible too. I think the Jaguars are a pretty good team. Too early to predict just yet.

    If our d-line doesn't contain the run, Fournette will make Lee and Davis look absolutely horrific. He will run them over....Blitz will expose us some because our secondary isn't the greatest. I like what I've seen from Darryl Roberts at times but Skrine and Burris are a weakness right now. It'll be interesting to see which Bortles shows up. AJ Bouye & Jalen Ramsey are studs too

    I think the safeties can continue to have a good impact on the back-end and I don't see any world beaters in terms of the receiving corps. Blitz will expose, but Bortles isn't a great decision maker. Jets need to put 7 people in the box.

    That's likely what they do, just hope the secondary is up for the task

    Hell I might even put 8 in the box and dare Bortles to beat me

    Definitely. If he does: It is what it is. That is the right strategy though. I hope the Jets can create a pass rush because under pressure Bortles (and most QB's) are pretty bad.

    Big game- get a W, had to Cleveland have the potential being 3-2 before a tough skit in the schedule. I think we shut down Fournette, we just need to force Bortles into making the mistakes we know he is capable of. I am scared for our offense though, Jaguars have some talent on the D- excited to see the game plan from Morton. Haven't been this excited for an offensive coordinator in awhile

    Hopefully Adams gets his first turnover. That guy is amazing, can't wait to watch the coaches tape!
