Looking forward to doing it again next week at Cincinatti....doubt it will be this easy, but if we can run the ball and control the line of scrimmage and play great D, I like our chances!

Happens all the time after teams clinch, they rest their starters...I'm guessing you're a disgruntled Giants (or Broncos) fan? Edit: Oh wait, I see you're a Seahawks fan, even worse, LMAO! Seahwaks can't even beat the lowly Yucs and you're taking about the Jets being handed a game? LOL!!
Bottom line is Jets are taking care of business tonight in dominating fashion and are going to the tournament!

I'm a fan of the game. I thought Indy should have run the table. Their loss and the Jets' gain. The Jets may actually win a game in the playoffs.
One needs only to look at the Welker injury today to understand why teams rest starters the way they do after clinching...

I double-checked to make sure that Frank Reich was retired before posting it..

<< <i>I hope the Jets upset the Colts in round 2!
This is my worst case scenario. I know there are some picking on the Jets but they are a solid running team and have a great pass defense. I told my wife that the Jets would end up beating Indy in the playoffs once Indy pulled Manning out of the game. Hope I'm wrong though.

Reality will sink in next Saturday night for the Jets.
<< <i>Has there ever been a more pathetic backing-in to the playoffs than the Jets this year? How is this team even a "playoff" team? The Colts fold up shop and hand them a game last week, and the Bengals basically did the same thing last night. Prior to that, against teams that were actually trying, the Jets were losing games in embarassing fashion - and Rex Ryan was crying (literally) about it. Sanchez is horrible, so they are essentially a one-dimensional offense.

The Bengals had a shot at the 3 seed and did not give the Jets the game. The next Bengals-Jets game will be much closer, but the Jets have a good shot at winning. Mark Sanchez isn't horrible, he's a rookie QB, that played all of 16 games in college. Should be a close game Saturday night.

IMO what was pathetic was how the Jets beat up on the Patsies early in the season.
16-0 IIRC.
Now that was pathetic.
Steve
And if it was the Patsies we would be hearing " I don't care how they got in, they are in that's all that matters'
Or some BS like that.

The Jets won that first game, 16-9. However, Sanchez threw 4 picks in their next meeting, and the Pats easily won 31-14.
IIRC.
Do the Vegas Oddsmakers think the same thing?

<< <i>Makes you wonder if Cincy sat Benson out and planned on losing their last game in order to make the Jets their first playoff opponent, rather than the Ravens.

Actually if the Bengals won their first opponent would be Houston. Houston beat the Bengals by 11 the first time. Maybe the Bengals wanted to face the Jets instead of the Texans? Not sure, but the Texans have a better offense then the Jets, but not as good a "d". Not suprised at the spread, it should a close game. The Jets and Bengals are pretty similiar teams. They both like to run the ball, and play solid D. The Bengals have the better qb, Jets defense is a little better. Bottom line: the game's Saturday at 4:30, we'll see what happens!

Edit: A team with the #1 ranked Defense and the #1 ranked rushing offense belongs in the playoffs. Period. And if our QB weren't a true rookie, we'd be a Super Bowl contender.

Outstanding bootleg call to Keller late in game to set up the clinching score! Outsstanding play calling all game long!
Jets running game is downright nasty and their D is solid and makes the plays when they need to, shutiing down Palmer completely.
Sanchez gets better each week and he manged another terrific game today, setting a record for highest completion % by a rookie QB in a playoff game and he finished with a 139.4 passing rating!
This team is fun to watch and has a lot of heart to reach this point after standing at 4-6 a few weeks ago.
Two more to the Super Bowl!!

People said the same thing last year about the Cardinals, saying they were the weakest team to ever even make the playoffs and look what happened. The Bengals swept both Pittsburgh and Baltimore this season, so I wouldn't exactly classify them as frauds..

Thanks, Mike. It's a good feeling to be on top for a change!

<< <i> I wouldnt get ready to plan a Super Bowl party just yet, Cincy is/was the biggest FRAUD of a playoff team in recent memory. Im not disrespecting your team by any stretch, I think you guys have maybe a teeny better of a chance than my Patriots but Cincy is a complete joke.. just keep that in mind is all.

Either way enjoy your win

Thanks, Perk! Deep down I actually agree with you regarding Cinci, but it's not often Jets fans get to celebrate even a wild card win, so I'm going to be in denial till at least Sunday, LOL!!

Yeah we won't hear from Jerry unless the Jets lose.
Now if Dallas can beat Philly this will be a great night.

This was like winning the opening round of the NIT tournament. When do the real teams play?

And who are the real teams? The 10-6 Pats? LOL, just more drivel from the worst of the biased NE fans...just admit you were wrong last week in your "prediction," which made as much sense as your post today.

He completed 12 passes. All game - 12 passes. Not exactly Brady-like, but for the Jets I guess that's pretty good.

Why throw more than 15 passes when you have two beasts in yr backfield and the #1 Defense in football?
Greise didn't have to throw much with those 70s Dolphin Super Bowl teams either..
Edit: maybe Ryan can hire a "videographer" to roam the sidelines and scout out Indy and SD practices a la NE to help us reach the Super Bowl..

Not to mention Griese was hurt half the year for the '72 Dolphins. The '72 Dolphins had Csonka, Kiick, and a great D. Actually probably most people can't even name more then 8 players on the'72 Dolphins.

<< <i>It would be really ironic if the Jets play the Colts next round, and beat them! Do I think it can happen? Yes, do I think it will happen, no, but you gotta admit Rex Ryan instills confidence in his team. Anything can happen in the playoffs. >>
I agree. Do I know the Jets are not the best team right now in the playoffs?? Yes. Do I think they can go to the Superbowl??? Yes.
Benagls who swept the Steelers and the Ravens had everything to play for and we shut them DOWN.
League's #1 Defense and a beast of a running game=playoff success. Who needs to pass when you can run the ball down the other team's throat??

Sanchez is bad, even for a rookie QB. And for a team with such an amazing running game (i.e. a one-dimensional team), it looked like Cedric Benson was the best running back on the field today. Too bad he was the only Bengal player to show up.
Enjoy it Jets fans. It's been a long, long, long time since your team won anything. I mean, anything at all. So I get it. Enjoy yourselves.
Sanchez a bad QB? Really? He looked very sharp out there this afternoon, did not make any mistakes and threw some real nice passes when he needed to make a play and finished with a TD pass, no picks, a record completion % and a rating of 140. I know it's really hard, but try not to make such ridiculously biased comments.
And one-dimensional? I wouldn't say that a team with an exceptional running game AND the #1 Defense in the NFL is one-dimensional.
Too bad the Pats are a one and done team this season...I was looking forward to an easier matchup for the AFC Championship.

I am not agreeing with you for the sake of agreeing with you. The patriots are done for awhile. Brady is not as good as I thought he was.
