Jets post game

October 14, 2007 By: Craig Category: NFL, New York Jets

Today the Jets got beat with no offense. Johnathan Vilma and the defense did their part in containing Donovan McNabb and his offense. Chad Pennington needs to be benched and let Clemens play. With 3 minutes left in the game trailing 16 to 9, the Jets had 4th an 1 on Philidelpia’s 18 yard line…what does Mangini call? A screen to Laveranous Coles. Mangini needed to give the ball to Thomas Jones at that moment. Jones who had a good game with a 130 yards. What will tomorrows topic be? It’s time to make a quarterback and coaching change.

Jets game plan to contain McNabb

This week, the Jets practice was not their usual type. Eric Mangini was convinced that being physical will be his way of winning games. Today the Jets go against Philadelphia and Donovan McNabb. If the Jets can get to McNabb, they have a chance of staying close. Jonathan Vilma and company must put pressure on McNabb. Gang Green has only three sacks in 5 games this year. When the Eagles played the Giants 2 weeks ago Mr. Mc Nabb was injured and without Westbrook and Thomas who help block for Donovan. Today is when the Jets take the field in their old jerseys hoping to win. Chad Pennington must be mobile and not wait to decide whom to throw too. Thomas Jones must pound the ball this afternoon. Jets special teams cannot carry this team. In short, Gang Green must play like champions this afternoon in order to win.

All media is on Jacob Bender’s performance on Sunday

September 06, 2007 By: Craig Category: Jacob Bender, NFL, New York Jets

On Sunday, the real test for Mr. Bender begins.  Jacob has had a decent preseason.  During the Giants game, he had gotten beaten badly by defensive lineman.  When the Jets played against Philadelphia, Jacob was having a better game.  It must of been because Jacob was feeling more confident in his position.  When Sunday’s game comes around, will Jacob Bender have butterflies or will he stand up to the pressure of New England?

KIMO VON OELHOFFEN SIGNS WITH THE EAGLES

After releasing Kimo Von Oelhoffen on Saturday, the Philidelpia Eagles signed Oelhoffen to a one year deal for 1 million dollars. Von Oelhoffen didn’t have a good year in 2006.  Eric Mangini decided he was not good enough to play in New York. I’m sure will see how much Von Oelheffen does this season with the Eagles.

Jets win in last minute field goal by Nugent

August 30, 2007 By: Craig Category: Anthony Schlegel, Brad Smith, C.J. Mosley, Chansi Stuckey, Die Hard Jets Fan, Marques Tuiasosopo, Mike Nugent, NFL, New York Jets

The Jets’ comeback win against the Eagles showed the determination of the players who are trying to make the roster. CJ Mosley had some excellent defensive plays in the first half. CJ Mosley also forced a fumble witch turned into a field goal. Anthony Schlegel played well on defense and special teams. Brad Smith and Marques Tuiasosopo both had good games, but Marques Tuiasosopo was very stable on the last drive with 2:50 left in the game. He took control as he was able move the ball down field with a couple of passes to Chansi Stuckey and his running back. Tuiasosopo got the ball to the 19 yard line with 3 second left. Mike Nugent came in and kicked a 35 yard field goal to win 13-11.

PRE-GAME SUMMARY JETS VS EAGLES TONIGHT

August 30, 2007 By: Craig Category: Chad Pennington, Kellen Clemens, NFL, New York Jets

Tonight’s game against the Philadelphia Eagles, is a real test for Chad Pennington.
Chad has a really bad pre-season. If by chance Chad falters tonight then you might see Kellen Clemens on opening day against the Patriots on Sept. 9th.  Kellen, who has been very impressive with his offense, has been able to throw for touchdowns.  He is also getting protection from the defense which is allowing him to have more time in the pocket.
Chad hasn’t really gotten control of the games, which are the big difference. (New York Post)
