Not to get delusional after today's win, but I think we can beat Dallas if our defense steps up like it did today. It would be a NICE treat on Thanksgiving after all the turkey eating. I say lets pull off two in a row and beat the 'Boys!
10 hours ago, I would have said no way.... I'm still not confident in our chances, but there is a slight chance... The Turkey Day game should at least be fun to watch
We have to play the caliber of ball that we did today. If we play like we did today we can play with anybody. I am not saying we will win all the time, but if we show up like today we have a very good shot at beating The Boys.
And a Philadelphia Flyers fan. I didn't have anyone that liked all three sports. My dad was a Cowboys fan, but only liked football, my uncle is a Red Sox fan and only liked baseball, and a friend of the family got me into hockey and was a Flyers fan. So I'm a weird mix.
It will make for a much more interested game since we just beat Pitt. No more "jets suck and can't win" from the anouncers (like today). More like..."the Jets did the same thing last year after the bye...came on strong and destroyed everyone i their path, just like last week". Anyone who posted that we can't beat Pitt must log off right now and not watch football for 13 years.
If they come out on Thursday with a similar performance as they did today against Pittsburgh, than definately. Dallas is definately beatable. Washington even kept it very close today. I give them a solid shot on Thursday.
At least the Jets win today will give CBS a way to hype the game. "Coming off their shocking win over the Steelers, the struggling Jets try to keep their momentum as they role in to Texas to face Tony Romo and the Cowboys."
I'm looking forward to Thursdays game even more now that the Jets beat the Steelers today. If the defense steps it up (big time), I don't see why we can't have a shot at winning. We know what Clemens is capable of, so it should be a fun game to watch. Even if they lose by a close margin, when do we ever get a Thanksgiving game? We need to enjoy it any way we can.
The defense is going to have to step up even more than they did today. I hope we see the same defense we saw today and not that passive version from the beginning of the season. I can not see the Jets scoring enough to compete with Dallas. But dare to dream about having a truly happy thanksgiving.
I'll be happy if we only win two more games this season, as long as they are the Cowboys and the Patriots. I will be satisfied with that season, even though we end the season 4-12. BUT, it does get us a high draft pick. As the Jets showed today, they are not that bad of a team, especially not 2-8 bad. They have been in every game, and are only a few pieces away from competing. With that said, yes the Jets CAN beat the Cowboys; I am confident that they can keep up with and possibly beat any team. Will they, no one knows...
