This is why I don't see them doing as much as most experts think. The Jets organization is really buying into how "great" they are and this is a classic example of being overconfident. Why are you extending a coach who has just one season under his belt, a 9-7 season which they backed into the playoffs? I just don't get all the over this team? IMO, they are primed for a huge let down this year.
Jets extend Ryan...really???

Originally posted by NighthawkOh, there is no doubt that I may be wrong, but I did not see anything special about that team last year, at least not to the point where that team should be getting all of this run in the media? I'm sorry, but that organization is way to full of itself right now, especially when you think that they only had 3 more wins then the Bills last year.

Re: Jets extend Ryan...really???
I think the hype is well-founded.
There's the No. 1 defense.
All-Pros at the most important o-line positions.
Offense loaded with weapons.
Sanchez played well in the playoffs as they went to AFC title game.
Where's the weakness?

Re: Jets extend Ryan...really???
I think they will content for the division at least. They might not be super bowl material but time is the only thing that will tell that. It depends alot on Sanchez and the running game. If Sanchez plays well consistantly and they can keep producing on the ground minus the fellow (Jones) who led them in rushing then I think they do really well. Thats alot of "if's" in this league though.The Polian Curse

Re: Jets extend Ryan...really???
I think they'll do about the same as last year, maybe 10-6. Sanchez will hold them back, imo. I don't know their roster terribly well, but they're pretty solid at all positions at the least. If injuries occur anywhere besides NT and the secondary, depth may become an issue.

Jets are a bunch of idiots, but at least they extended a coach that almost got them to the superbowl...We resigned Jauron after having a winning record during the regular season. Now that's stupid!"Expect rejection, but expect more to overcome it."

Re: Jets extend Ryan...really???
Originally posted by NighthawkSorry, but where are the proven weapons on offense??? Sanchez was crap last year, Edwards has been average his entire career except one year and they got rid of their best RB. Holmes was a nice pickup from the Steelers, but please, your a little off base...and anybody on this board knows that I am not a homer. I would argue, besides the defense, where are they so strong??? They have a lot of unknowns that people are just assuming will be good...i.e. - Sanchez, RB, WR and so on. It isn't as much of a pretty picture as some like to make it out to be.
They got better as the season went on, they came within one game of the Super Bowl, and it's reasonable to believe they'll be better. Sanchez played like a rookie during the season but showed promise in the playoffs with four TDs and just two picks, all on the road. Shonn Greene ran for 263 yards in two playoff victories (any RB could do well behind that line anyway). They were wise to dump Jones before he broke down, which is inevitable. I'll take Edwards, Holmes and Cotchery as my receivers anyday.
The rhetoric here reminds me of some of the same bashing of the Patriots. If people disagree about the Jets, that's their right, but there is substance behind the hype.Last edited by Philagape; 07-31-2010, 02:51 PM."It is better to be divided by truth than to be united by error." -- Martin Luther
