I'm still trying to look on the positive side of being a Jets fan cause I wont lie, it's pretty rough at times being a sports fan.... So is what I'm trying to say is that it's just time for me to try an enjoy the playoffs, eat pretty good, and get on some liquor with my older bro... With all that said, I'm just pretty thankfull that the Bucs lost to the Giants today and that the Pats 16-0 perfect season can actually be turned into a disaster and always be knowns as **"The Perfect Season"** It's pretty rough being a New York Jets Fan and living in a city in Tampa Bay Florida full of nothing but Tampa Bay fans... I always tell everyone around me if they ask -who my team is-... And I say I have 2 favorite teams, 1 is the Jets, and the other is any team who plays the Bucs as long as it's not the Patriots. So as a Jets fan I was rooting for the Steelers last night against the Jaguars for the simple fact I feel like Big ben can play at high levels when feeling confident, I just thought that The power run game could give the Patriots problems with Davenport and a player like Hines Ward who can make the tough catches in critical situations...and we all know Pittsburg has always had a GOOD run defense and they simply find ways to put pressure on QB's when they drop back... But I guess the better team won... The Jagaurs is as hot as any team in the NFL right now... Good luck to the Patriots running up the middle The Bucs are eliminated The Colts, Jaguars, Chargers/Tittans all still have a chance at finding a way to upset this Patriots team.- I really hope that Chargers beat the Tittans... This is the game I been waiting for all week! Tomlinson is a special runner, Gates is an amazing athlete, "Lights Out" is the new Ray Lewis in terms of getting his Defense pumped up and they also have some play makers like Turner, Sproils, Chambers and fast cornerbacks. --David Harris, Jonathan Vilma, Darrell Revis, Kerry Rhodes, Shaun Ellis-- can all help us in this 3-4 Defense for years to come and if we can draft an outside speed rusher like V.Gholston who can replace either Hobson or B.Thomas and add another big body to rotate with Robertson as our 3-4 NT... I can see in my mind a really young, aggressive, fast and strong Defense with the players named above and a chance to sign players like a T.Suggs or even draft 2 more impact players for this Defense in the draft... If we can add another D.Harris or add another D.Revis out of the draft this offseason and sign a player in the offseason (O or D) I say Mangini is doing a pretty good job in turning this 3-4 Defense into a "Defense in the making." With all that said... lol, Lets all just try an enjoy the playoffs and look foward to the future...
Amen man. We can look forward to the draft and a Pats loss this postseason would be darn nice as well.
Jaguars @ Pats... Even know the Jaguars are on fire right now, I dont see how this team can actually go into Foxboro and beat a New England team in the cold who is fresh off a bye week... D.Garrard is really a young QB and I just see BB and the Patriots D confusing this kid... Lets hope im wrong Chargers @ Colts... Im going for the Colts on this game... A defense who can get after the QB, contain the run, and an Offense which can pick apart the Defense... Ill put the ball in Mannings hand anyday over P.Rivers against this Patriots team And im going for the Packers out of the NFC
I don't see the Jaguars as doing anything. They will not score much, and they are hardly a great defense, blowing 18 point leads to a team that cannot run the ball. I expect the Pats to pass them silly. And it will be good weather for passing too, unfortunately. Maybe it will pour. If not, Pats by 17. Colts should win. Vince Young inched the ball up the field against these guys but could not finish. Manning can finish. Rivers will throw some picks. I say Colts by 10.
I know what you mean about being a Jets fan in TB. I live in Largo, and get get away from Bucs fans. Although they are only fans when they win. How they dont sell out a playoff game is beyond me.... GO JAGS!!!
If John Henderson didn't get injured, the Jags would have dominated that game from start to finish. They don't have much depth on the d-line and were forced to leave Grady Jackson and some guy no one ever heard of in the game. Grady is usually a situational player and was gassed. IF there's bad weather, and Henderson is healthy the Jags have a good shot.
