    I knew this would be a hard game to win. TN is a damn good team, and this win really says more about the 2009 NY Jets that the other wins. After starting strong, the Titans took all the momentum away, but the Jets never gave up. A true gut-check win.

    This was a great win!!

    i couldnt agree more! the entire team stepped up half way through the third quarter and said hey enough with this!!!!! that was such a huge play on that punt muff, brad smith great fuckin job keepin that guy down. that was one of those plays that just completely changed the momentum for the rest of the game.

    This was a good test for the Jets. You could see when the Titans adjusted on both sides of the ball, it was how we'd react in adversity that'd determine where today went. We passed that test....

    I thought it was quite pathetic watching fans in the game thread start to panic in the 2nd Quarter LOL. Unreal.

    it was even scarier to hear them booing in the stands. that bothered me a little bit, of course i was worried at points in this game but never to the point of booing anyone.

    You knew with a rookie QB that this team would face some adversity. They did today and came out golden. Way to fight back Jets. Big win and huge step forward for Sanchez. That deep pass to Cotch was a thing of beauty.

    The team needed this type of game. They dominated the first 2 weeks. They were handed some actual adversity today and bounced back against a very good team in excellent fashion. Defense tightened up in the second half and Sanchez kept his composure well. We're not going to dominate every week but this team showed they know how to finish games.

    I think that the Titans are the best team that the Jets have played so far this season, even though they're 0-3. They had a strong gameplan, they never panicked even after an unbelievably bad start, and they outplayed the Jets for a significant portion of the game.

    Thankfully we learned that the Jets don't roll over so easily either. The defense especially stepped up and won this game when they had to, I'm proud of them.

    This was a hard game to watch for a former darksider. This win will feel good for the whole week. I thought the crowd was out of it after they went up 17-14, but the team stayed in it. Very proud.

    Now at 4pm, it's time to be a Chargers fan ;-)

    All the excuses were there if they came out & played flat:
    They expended all their energy and emotions against the Pats,
    The Titans are too good of a team & will play with desperation.

    The Jets came out flying & when the tide turned & Tennessee started to play well they could have let the game get away, but the Jets rose to the occasion. Definitely not the same old Jets.

    Great game defensively, though a mediocre one offensively

    This is a brand new era my friends. Rex Ryan is a man who is willing this team to go out and win. Fabulous win, That big gut on Rex is always a win.

    TEN isnt bad but I still think that wounded NE team was the best we saw all year long.

    This being said, next week is the lions den and will be a true test. AT NO is no joke, especially if Lito isn't playing.

    if this was a game any time over the last decade it would have been a loss after the momentum swing. It is a new era in Jet Land.

    I don't think calling a team "the lion's den" is a scary thing right now..

    This game weather aside was always going to be tough. This really was a season clincher for the Titans, I wonder if they will buck the trend and actually make the POs?
    TJ was totally ineffective as they used him, why they didn't use him on screen passes is beyond me. Every played keyed up the middle.
    Washington, what can you say, guy deserves pay-check, period.
    Sanchez and WR core; As the season progresses, the windows of oppertunity will close as the Titans proved, last placed against the pass and they did a good job. Keller had his moments, but once again. Repetition breeds contempt.
    The O line look cohesive and show great tea
    The D on this team is whats carrying us. Jenks is a castle, a mother fuckin castle! Really great to Pouha step his game up and look a bit nasty today too.
    David Harris especially and Scott, incredible.
    The secondary didn't have their best day.
    3-0 don't lie

    We handled the diversity very well.
