    Laying it on the line as a Jets fan doesn't work out too often. :grin:

    Take away the Pats penalty and there's still nothing to say we lose. Give me a break they scored all of what, 3 points in the entire second half? And we already stopped them on their first drive in OT.

    Lucky penalty it may be, but pencilling in a loss without it is just absurd, and it bothers me how commonly held this thought is.

    I thought 7-9. I was pretty accurate for most of my team picks.

    Yeah, but we lost our starting QB since then. I would say losing 1-2 more games isn't so bad no?

    I'm not sure if I ever voiced my prediction on here, but i remember my friends laughing at me when I predicted 8-8/9-7. The defense had too much promise and Marty is too much of a wiz for them to go anything worse than 6-10, looks like I'll be close.

    11.

    Geno lost week 2 all by his lonesome.

    We should have won Pitt, and Balt. But, we were playing a rookie. Every one said lucky for 3.

    Go back, look. With a half assed vet, we win 11

    Take away the Pat's penalty and they get the ball back.. Brady with an additional shot at our stellar all pro secondary. Yeah, no way Brady beats the Jets in overtime.. LMAO!

    puff, puff, pass..

    Pretty sure I said 6 wins or 7 at best. So far on pace, a win today goes beyond my expectations.

    I predicted 8-8.

    Unlike Hobbes, I didn't leave myself an "out".

    I've been saying 8-8 all year.

    Got multiple phone calls after game saying, "Damn, you were right."

    Wow, maybe I do know something about football!!! :wink:

    I didn't make any predictions before the season, but I'm happy the Jets improved from their 6-10 record from last year.

    I thought we would be in the 6-8 win range

    The fact that we won 6 games last year with a similar/worse roster made all the "experts" predicting 3 wins seem ridiculous

    Not much in the way of miscalculations really, the jets walked away with 2-3 wins this season they should have absolutely lost. Horrible offense, horrible pass defense, this really was a 5 win team tops if you take the luck element out of it.
