    That was the most enjoyment I've had from watching a Jets game in a long time. Awesome effort and some young guys really stepped up. Plenty of mistakes along the way but loads of positives which were as pleasing as the win itself. Let's hope the team continue to play like that against some of the weaker teams left on the schedule.

    And Mike White. Wow. Why did they trade for Flacco again?

    The difference today was the defense finally showed up. Simple as that.

    They were a QB down and wanted a veteran. But …. they didn’t see today coming either.

    Glad I was wrong about this game. The team came ready to play and the QB looked like a poised vet who was taking what the defense gave him.

    You mean the defense that was well rested as our offense moved the chains.

    I'm watching Saleh's press conference, and I find it very amusing that he constantly calls him by his full name, Mike White, instead of just Mike. In fairness, all of us do this.

    I'd have to agree. The offense gave the defense time to get off the field for stretches. That's how an offense helps the defense. Also, Saleh finally took the ball to start the game instead of giving Cinn. an opportunity to get ahead. What a tremendous play by Shaq Lawson! I think that was the play of the game.

    Most likely. Came at the right time and gave them the ball in great position.

    Legit win.

    Mike White played a strong game and everybody keyed off of that.

    Nice!!! That would be quite a haul on the first day. Maybe even trade down a few spots with that second pick….

    Presume White throwing for 400+ is going to focus some eyes on Wilson and his play so far? Do you stick him on IR and say his knee reacted badly to pull him out of the spotlight and away from any controversy that might build up from here?
