    Fortunately for the Jets, these people don't decide who ends up there.

    We go through this every year.

    The media picks the dolphags to finish ahead of us.

    FCOL we won 9 games last year with a Rookie QB that gave away three all on his own, and then added a half dozen pro bowl caliber players on both sides of the ball.

    Maybe because of the 9-7 record (which includes 2 gimme wins)?

    Why should they be picked. They looked ordinary at best all pre-season, their best player his holding out and their QB is a question mark.

    I found some on nfl.com. Just brilliant observations!

    http://www.nfl.com/kickoff/story/09000d5d812296e0/article/with-high-expectations-jets-will-try-to-live-up-to-hype

    I've got no problem not liking the Jets. The reasons are just too funny. A lot of big names but not in their primes? LOL.

    Ok, LT and JT not in primes, true. But they're not our best players.

    The other one is even better. Too many distractions to be consistent!

    And I can see why you wouldn't pick the Jets, I'm not arguing that. The reasoning is just too funny.

    Until Jets own the AFCE for 10 straight years or something (maybe still then) these people won't consider Jets seriously.

    The 2008 Lions were 4-0 in preseason. I think you know what happened that year.

    The Colts went 0-4 this year. I guess they're gonna suck...

    When the Jets have the Colts track record, then i'll ignore the pre-season.

    I've heard this argument before.

    It still makes no sense.

    Geez, look at all the Ryan Matthews love. I didn't follow his preseason. Did he do something magical that I just never read about?

    He is now the feature back in SD and has looked pretty good so far.

    Its a safe pick.

    Matthews has looked ok from what I have seen ... the more I watch Spiller, the more nervous I get about opening day.

    Kevin Seifer of ESPNdotcom predicts Darrelle Revis as defensive MVP. Coooool. Can you win one of those sitting on your ass in Aliquippa?

    That's an idiotic statement. Last year's pre-season had more issues than this pre-season and we still started 3 and 0, and we went to the championship game. Pre-season is no indicator of what the team's record is going to be.

    They're all over Matthews here in San Diego

    They are putting Tomlinson down daily on the airwaves.
