    I'm with you No Fly Zone. Nice games by Ruckert and Jermaine Johnson, Zach actually makes a few nice passes and the Jets surprise everybody with a win to go 2-0.

    I'm thinking 13 - 6 loss. Hope I'm wrong and Zach plays better.

    They need to hit trevon diggs with a double move off the rip. That dude is going to be looking to jump every pass from ZW

    Greg the Leg with a groin injury. 50-50 to play this week per Saleh. That's not good. Especially if it's a close, low scoring game.

    In our situation this is a killer injury. I hope he's able to play.

    Interesting little factoid - this is apparently the first time ever that the Jets and Giants are both playing in the Sunday afternoon window.

    I think you'll see plenty of short passes to Hall & Cook. Lazard & Cobb are also good short to midrange receivers. The Jets offense has players that can take a short pass and make it into a big gain. The defense can handle the Cowboy offense. Put enough pressure on Dak and he'll make make a turnover. This is my 63rd year with the Titans/Jets always keeping hope alive.

    Agreed. Also, Garret Wilson should be running crossers left and right. Get him the ball on the run and let him work.

    Ive been saying in other posts all week let Zach air it out - this is the week to do it with NE coming up. Play to win of course but try some outside the box play calling here and there. Throw a couple of 40-50 yard bombs on a rollout if need be -let’s see what exactly they have so they can game plan accordingly for the NE game - important divisional game.

    The Giants are at Arizona, so they had to be at 4:00. It's the Jets at Dallas that is interesting - the Cowboys sometimes play at 1:00 Eastern at home, but this was set up to be the Aaron Rodgers versus America's Team national late game. Oops. Talk about a big opportunity for Wilson - if he somehow plays well, the perception of him nationally will skyrocket. Of course, if he plays badly, it will go from the sub-basement to the sub-sub-sub-basement.

    I'm still waiting for Hackett to take advantage of the speed we have on offense.

    Release the X!

    There is no reason this team can't be similar to the Eagles.

    Good defense. Good running game. Smart play calling with some big shots down the field.

    I said it last year but I also would like to see Zach run a little more. We have seen glimpses of it. I'm not talking 10-12 times per game. But 4 or 5 scrambled/designed runs. It could be a valuable weapon.

    I’ll be busy tomorrow, but I don’t think I can do much for this one anyway…

    Barring injuries, I still see this as a close game dictated by each teams d-line. Parsons will for sure be living in Zachs head, and Quinnen should be in Daks. I think both QBs will be frazzled for much of the game, and the defense that creates the most big plays will win it. Special teams will likely factor in a lot too.

    Go Defense
    Go Zach
    Go Breece
    Go Jets!

    Lets go out and grab 2-0.

    The Cowboys are a little banged up … both starting guards Smith and Martin may not play and if they do play may not be up to task for Jets DL….
