Personally, teams better than the Jets right now are: 1. Ravens 2. Saints 3. Steelers 4. Giants 5. Jets
I think The G-men would give us alot of trouble, but the Ravens D has been very suspect this season so far, giving up career #s for Rivers who besides the TOs had over 400 yards passing, but with this defense we have were in position to win any game, can Sanchez win games for us is the true question, i'm anticipating his first 4th quarter 2 min drill to win a game
As a Steeler fan our offensive line would have alot of trouble with what I saw yesterday from the Jets. I for one would be excited to see the two teams get it on.
Did the Steelers ever replace the Heinz Field grass with Field Turf? That surface was brutal for kickers.
Yeah I agree. The reason I put Pittsburgh ahead of the Jets is because I don't see how Sanchez and the offense could score against the Steelers D. It would be a great matchup though.
Great Question, I have no idea- I think if Feely was out kicker then we would've won that game. Their kicker seemed fine. John Hall always drove me nuts too-
No doubt. I used to (and still do) love watching the Steelers and Ravens Ds, especially when the two teams play each other. I'm feeling the same way about this Jets D; just a lot of fun to watch. While Brady is clearly better than Ben, Brady can't make the plays that Ben makes when under constant pressure. Because of this, I'd be more worried facing Roethlislerger than Brady at this point in time.
Yeah. I'd love to see this. Maybe if we beat or ran close with the Steelers people would finally give us some respect.
I was at that game in 2005, cold as shit that day. I took my wife to Pittsburgh for her first ever live game and it was one for the ages. Ever since that game she has never been the same, she loves football now. As a Steeler fan this was as exciting as it gets, as a Jets fan (which my brother is) it was a little hard to take considering the Jets were 2 makeable field goals of beating the 15-1 Steelers.
Nope. The Steelers are so old school that they will replace the field 2 times a year at $100,000 a clip before they will install field turf. They had astroturf at Three Rivers why they can't have the new and improved stuff at Heinz is beyond me. They play college games, high school games and pro games weekly on that field and come December and January it is beat to shit.
I watched the game yesterday with my brother and I have to say the Jets have arrived as a defense. What would worry me right now about the Jets is if they fall behind and have to play catch up. I don't think Sanchez is ready to put the offense on his back and pull out the win. I would also worry about Sanchez hitting the "rookie wall" around games 14, 15, 16 and the playoffs.
if the Cowboys can run all over the Giants so can the Jets, and the Jets have a QB who doesn't make dumb mistakes the way Romo loves to. and the Giants have not faced the best defense in the league. Manning is way too comfortable back there. The Giants have had two wins against division opponents who look pedestrian this year.
