Vegas has set us at 5.5 wins currently. Over 5.5 at -155 Under 5.5 at +130 So Vegas thinks we are more likely to win 6 or more games than 5 or less games. Setting over under at 5.5, what are you going with?
A lot depends upon how good N.E. is. If they don't improve I can see the Jets pulling out the normal average of 6 - 7 wins. If N.E. improves and sweeps the Jets, I'd take the under. For now, pre-draft, I'll say 7...
Well it will clearly change after the draft and we see how the roster shapes up…for now, I’m feeling more under than over, but again, we do have a whole draft to get through..but I’m concerned about the lack of talent at WR after GW, I’m assuming we will shore up the OL early in the draft and if so, I’m hoping it will be at least average, I am not super optimistic about Fields despite thinking he was the best option out there for us, I just don’t think he’s any good. On D, I’m concerned about our DL…JJ will be back but after an Achilles tear for a position that relies a lot on explosiveness, I’m not expecting him to be great this year, and I’m concerned about the defensive backfield…losing Reed and replacing him with that Balt corner was a downgrade. So yeah…I don’t think this team is better than last year’s team that got us 5 wins. Again, if we come out of the draft with solid players at RT, WR, TE, DT, CB, S that’d be great, but we don’t have enough picks to fill the holes we have. We are not as good as Buf and Mia, and if Vrabel can coach up his team, we may also be looking up at the Pats as well. So we’ll see
7 wins. New CS, new system, new players. 7 wins will show potential. Anybody looking for a playoff appearance will have reason to cry and/or be upset as their wish won't come true in '25.
Let's add here our opponents in 2025 season in case some folks want to go game by game basis 2025 Opponents Home: Buffalo Bills, Miami Dolphins, New England Patriots, Cleveland Browns, Pittsburgh Steelers, Atlanta Falcons, Carolina Panthers, Denver Broncos, Dallas Cowboys Away: Buffalo Bills, Miami Dolphins, New England Patriots, Baltimore Ravens, Cincinnati Bengals, New Orleans Saints, Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Jacksonville Jaguars
There's my 7 wins if New England is still a question mark. This also assumes the non-divisional teams, I listed as winning, carry over from last year. Cleveland and New Orleans are tossups. If Cleveland gets solid QB play from whomever they start they're dangerous. If they somehow pull off getting that Penn State DE and pair him with Garrett, good luck passing the ball. New Orleans usually boils down to if they are healthy or not. Who knows about Jacksonville. Realistically, though, anywhere between 4 and 7 wins will be where the team falls.
Sadly this looks like 4-12 to me. They might beat the Saints, Panthers and Falcons. Maybe they split with Pats and beat Cleveland somehow but that's best case scenario, IMO.
I think we’re going to have a bit of a rebound and win 8 games, no playoffs. I think we’ll contend for the playoffs for a brief period, but Fields will make some familiar mistakes just enough to hold us back, but not enough where there won’t be heavy talk of whether we continue with Fields or draft a QB. I’m hoping that we manage to trade down and net a 1st next yesr so we have enough ammo to move up. We’ll be the offseason media darlings, the media will never shut up about whether we extend Fields or draft a QB. But we all know either way whatever we do will be disastrous, we’ll get smeared and forgotten like thos last time, and we’ll do it all over again.
Are you kidding? What do you mean sadly? Hopefully we win 4 or even less. If next year’s QB’s in the draft are as good as advertised, less games we win the better.
1st time head coach who may or may not even be able to coach(trying the failed experiment for the 100th time now), defense has once again lost key players, lost a Qb who was halfway decent last year, lost maybe the best wide receiver on the team, Woody is still the owner of this team with Brick Lurking in, and people still penciling this team for 7+ wins. When will you guys learn.
You and I are on the same page. While I'm on the "Fields is the best option" bandwagon for 2024, I KNOW he's going to shit the bed. I think we need 3 or less wins to take that top spot. How they maneuver the draft this year will really set the stage. If they can trade back and pick up a 1 in 2026, that almost certainly ensures them having the ability to bounce to the #1 slot next year by packaging some picks and going to get Arch Manning. That's my plan and I'm sticking to it. My backup is Membou or Warren.
I figure we win about three games until playoff elimination and then another three afterwards to ruin our draft position. So I voted over.
HAH! Yes we can always count on the Jets to lose a lot, and then win one or two meaningless games towards the end that really they should have no business winning, but of course absolutely shreds our draft position. Last example was beating the Rams in LA with Gase to cost us the first overall pick and that was the difference between getting Zach instead of Lawrence…say what you want about Lawrence and if he really is all that he was supposed to be, but he has been night and day better than Zach, and I would have loved to see what he could have done had we drafted him (though to be fair, our offensive coaching has been just as shitty as Jacksonville’s so maybe not much different)
They'll hit the under again. We're back in our usual position: no QB, so the opposing defense will be loading the box to take away Breece Hall and the rest of the backs and rolling as much coverage as possible towards Wilson since there's no other playmakers that can do something with the ball in space beyond those two. So, we'll be forced to have a much diminished defense carry us yet again all the way to a Top 7-8 pick.
Throw on the pile that, after another year of getting their heads kicked in, Breece and Wilson give the Jets the middle finger on the way out after telling the team to piss off....
