    0 points in the 2nd half by the Pats says it all. Both teams had multiple drops in the bad weather. That's going to happen. You can't discount the fact that both D's had good games.

    It sucks that we (cough cough Milliner) handed them a TD.

    Milliner strip on Edelman was a fumble. Both feet were down.

    Unless refs invoked BS rule of having to "make a football move" after taking possession?

    Looked incomplete to me.
     
  5. The defense wasn't perfect...the main issues appeared to be pre-snap w/ some of the Patriots alignment.

    But you can't honestly say the D played bad when you hold Brady to 13 points at home & shut him out in the 2nd half. Doesn't matter the surrounding cast or circumstances..

    Defense is still a work in progress.Give these guys a few weeks & get Coples back. I have a funny feeling this could be Rex's best Jets D to date

    Live it looked incomplete, but when you watched it in slow mo he caught it and then took two steps and had it in his hands before Dee punched it out.

    this is pretty much how i saw it last night. the defense was very good against hte run, the patsies had open guys all night who just wouldnt hold onto the ball. that probably wont happen week in and week out. milliner looked bad, cromartie was not good for the second week in a row, davis showed he can play the run well but still cant play the pass worth a shit. richardson had flashes. harris was a step slow in coverage, the safety play was blah.... i definitely wouldnt say it was an exceptional performance by any stretch.
