    Sitting at 7-4, a look at our upcoming schedule is making me try and project our final won loss record. The schedule looks pretty daunting. I'm hoping for four wins, but three might be more realistic. Does 10-7 get us in?

    One game at a time..bring on the Vikings!!!

    Don't forget 10-7 will be fine if enough other teams blow it

    Only 3 more wins would be damning for this team. They really should win them all.

    Is it too early to start a weekly rooting thread? It's been a damn long time since this place needed to even think about one!

    As long as the Jets win their two remaining home games as they should I think 10 wins is definitely manageable. I am interested to watch this Jets defense against Kirk Cousins and particularly the secondary against Jefferson …

    Rooting against NE and LAC (go cardinals!)

    NE's schedule is even tougher than ours down the stretch, but we have to beat them outright, obv.

    We are going to be playing meaningful games in december. I hate saying that cuz that should be the norm but for us it's an anomaly. Yet it's so much fun to be in it right now.

    Every game on our schedule scares me. The Lions are a really good team that has not learned how to win yet. Jax has shown the ability to play with top tier teams. Seattle with Geno is scary. But like NYJets012 said above it all begins with the next game. Beat Minnesota and things look a lot better. 8-4 going into a winner take all game against Buffalo sounds so much better than 7-5 and looking at 7-6 after visiting Buffalo.

    The next two look more formidable than the last two slightly. Vikings are tough at home and Buffalo will be out for revenge. The Jets may be able to knock off Seattle….Miami will be tough but crazy things always happen when it Jets vs Dolphins ….

    Gonna be a wild 6 games …

    Ravens have a powder puff schedule. If you assume they win their division, and both Buffalo and Miami get in, it will come down to the Jets, Bengals, Pats and Chargers fighting for 2 spots. Cincy and NE have tough schedules … and we’re ahead of the Chargers. I think 10 wins will get us a spot. And If 10 wins includes a second win over Buffalo or Miami, I think we’d be a lock.

    Beat the Vikings next week. Nothing else matters. There are no other games on the schedule. Just win the next game.

    Hopefully we never have to look back at the Pats games and wonder. If we keep winning we won't have too.

    There's probably plenty on film of that Cowboys Vikings game the Jets can use, considering they have the same scheme. They sacked Cousins 7 times.

    Maybe we win.

    Maybe MW gets sacked and wrecks his shoulder.

    The defense gives us a chance in every single game. I predict 4-2 down the stretch. 11-6. And a true postseason threat. Gotta stay healthy
