There are plenty of threads here detailing the many opinions of how and why we came away with our first L of the season today, but taking a step back from the analysis and so forth I just have to say... This SUCKS!!! I realize that we were up against a very worthy opponent in their home dome but damnit, I feel like sh*t. All logic and strategy aside, I just expected a better performance out of our team today and it sucks digesting this loss. No matter how many people thought we were in for a loss, I for one feel like crap after today's game. I'm not trying to go Darkside or anything, I think we have a great season ahead, but this one hurts. Can't wait til Sunday...
What makes this an "Official" thread? Who certifies these as genuine and official? Who is the governing body?
Dear JETS fans, You have an amazing football team. The loss hurts, but it will help this team in the future, he needed this(Sanchez). I will admit, i have not seen my saints defense play like this since the early 90's when i was 12 years old. That being said, i was equally impressed with the jets defense. These two team put on a defensive clinic out there today. Heads up guys, you have a special team and mark my words...we'll toast to both of the teams in the Super Bowl. peace my friends.
Like I told my 9 year-old who was in tears in the 4th quarter...there's no crying in football! Even great teams lose games (and we aren't a great team....yet). So buck up sparky....its only one game. And they'll probably lose a few more. You aren't allowed to get depressed until it is a home loss to a crap team in Dec with the playoffs on the line.
what's to be depressed about? unlike years past, where we lost because we simply were't good enough, what I saw today was a team that is good enough but still has some wrinkles to iron out. our D is great enough to keep us in any game and our offense is led by a rookie QB who is inherently going to make some mistakes but who has shown what his upside is. there is nothing depressing about this loss. in fact, I am extremely optimistic after it.
I came into this game being optimistic, but braced myself for the worst. The worst happened and I too feel the pain. It sucks losing this game, since I thought we had a real chance to win it, but oh well. I will avoid the Jets forum for a while because I don't think I can take those idiots who create ridiculous threads. When I return Wednesday, it will be all about the Dolphins. If there's something positive to say about this game, was that Rex Ryan's D is NO JOKE. Miami will FeelThePain.
This is what happens when you have a rookie quarterback. These things take time. Sanchez has a lot of kinks to work out - this should not be a surprise to anyone. Now is the time for him to get his feet wet. Hopefully, the defense keeps this team in the playoff race and Sanchez develops quickly. Regardless, we have an amazing coach and a franchise QB, which is more than you can say for most NFL teams. There's a lot to be happy about right now.
i mean God, i have more respect for the jets now after the game. you guys are about to go on a tear i promise you.
I hear you, I hear you, I just needed to vent. I get all of the reasons to be optimistic about the rest of the year, which I am, but it always sucks to lose, that's all. I'll feel better tomorrow but for now I'm feeling the pain. That's all.
i wasn't really that pissed after today which was kinda surprising the game that pissed me off the most last year might have been that oakland loss in OT
Im not that disappointed in the loss. The defense showed that it was legit, if there may have been any doubts. 16–0 was not going to happen, and we all pretty much pegged this game as a loss before the season began. My biggest concern is whether Sanchez will rebound from this.
This is the best loss in years, if such a thing exists. Our team needed a loss in my opinion. It will only make Sanchez better, and make the team work harder. That said, it would be nice to have a one game lead over the patriots.
