    There's no need to blame anyone. We were worn down and didn't have the depth to advance any further.

    This is what the Jets chose not to do on offense, and on that side you have to support them. Would you really have preferred going through the off-season with everybody talking about the 4 interceptions Mark Sanchez threw as the Colts beat the Jets 44-17? Really?

    Yes, we had a very small chance to win that game if we just opened up the offense and threw the ball all over the place. Very small, like 10% small. We probably had a 25% chance that Sanchez was ruined for life. Good luck with doing the math on that one but I'm happy the Jets did what they did offensively in the second half.

    Nice post.

    Not the only reason but perhaps the key one that the Jets lost was Strickland going down. On the face of it you wouldn't say he's a better or more important player than Greene. But the problem is with him out and Sheppard not playing, you end up seeing far too much of Coleman and Lowery.

    Revis is awesome, and Leonhard is a big upgrade, but with Rhodes playing so inconsistent, and Strickland having injuries, teams like Indy present overwhelming challenges, since their depth at receiver is too much for the bench secondary players to deal with.

    Main need for the next season I think is going to have to be another corner. Maybe he doesn't have to be a first round pick, but the Jets need a starter.
