Awesome, I am so happy for this Great American City!
and for Peyton Manning getting embarrassed.
Rookie quarterback Mark Sanchez has been great and probably will be great for a number of years for the New York Jets. He just wasn’t great on this particular Sunday. Three interceptions and a fumble doomed the Jets against the New Orleans Saints.
The Jets played good enough to win (if you don’t count the turnovers). New Orleans high powered offense came to a crashing halt against he fearsome defense of the New York Jets. Drew Brees who usually throws for over 300 yards in his sleep met his match on Sunday, scraping by to manage only 190 yards passing and no passing touchdowns. The offensive juggernaut of the Saints was held to just one field goal through the first three quarters. The Saints had scored an average of 40 points the first three games. On Sunday they only scored 24. And most of those 24 points were gifts.
Mark Sanchez made the worst quarterback mistake, throwing an interception in the red zone that is returned for a touchdown. A 99 yard touchdown interception return that put the Jets in an early hole.
The defense made two 4th down stands. One of which was on the goal line which kept the score close. Until Mark Sanchez made another terrible quarterback mistake. A fumble in the end zone that was recovered by New Orleans for another touchdown. Another gift that put the Jets in a deeper hole.
However, the Jets made a game of it in the second half, after Mark Sanchez led a drive down the field which was finished by a Thomas Jones 15 yard rush up the middle through an outstanding hole created by one of the NFL’s best offensive lines. The Jets again stopped Drew Brees and got the ball back with a chance to tie but couldn’t get it done on their next drive. The Saints offense finally got going and they drove down the field for a Pierre Thomas 1 yard touchdown run, the Saints only offensive touchdown of the game.
The Jets 24-10 loss to the New Orleans Saints leaves them at 3-1, tied for the best record in the division with New England. New England beat the undefeated Baltimore Ravens following a win against the Atlanta Falcons. Despite reports that New England might be down, it appears that Tom Brady and Bill Belichick have other plans. The Miami Dolphins won their first game against division rival Buffalo Bills. Both of these teams at 1-3 appear to be playing for draft position, apparently leaving just the Jets and Patriots to fight for the division crown.
At Miami on Monday night is the next game for the Football Jets. We need to get our offense going as our defense should be able to stop the Wildcat offense led by backup quarterback Chad Henne who replaced ex-quarterback Chad Pennington following another season ending shoulder surgery.
Lets Go Jets.

New York Jets at New Orleans Saints. Great Defense vs. Great Offense. Game On.
This is the matchup Football Jets predicted before the season began. For the Superbowl.
That is right. New Orleans Saints and the New York Jets game this Sunday could be the preview to the Superbowl. With the Jets offense improving each week and the Jets defense solidifying itself as one of the NFL’s premier defenses the team looks to be a serious contender. The New Orleans Saints potent passing attack led by likely MVP Drew Brees can beat any team on any day so their chances in the playoffs are good.
This has to be the game of the week.
2009 NFL season starts today with the defending Superbowl Champion Pittsburgh Steelers playing the Tennessee Titans. The New York Football Jets open their season on Sunday at the Houston Texans.
Football Jets would like to make some fearless predictions that hopefully won’t be so wrong I will still have some credibility left after the season.
In the AFC, the Pittsburgh Steelers, New England Patriots, San Diego Chargers and the Indianapolis Colts appear to be the teams on top of their respective divisions come playoff time. For the wild card, the New York Jets will join the Tennessee Titans.
In the NFC, the New York Giants, Minnesota Vikings, Arizona Cardinals, and the New Orleans Saints are my season predictions for winning their respective divisions. Joining them in the playoffs I predict will be wild card teams the Philadelphia Eagles and the Chicago Bears.
That leaves out some serious contenders like the Seattle Seahawks, Dallas Cowboys, Atlanta Falcons, Carolina Panthers, Green Bay Packers, Houston Texans, Baltimore Ravens and the Miami Dolphins.
Playoff predictions are tough, but lets go with the San Diego Chargers upsetting the Pittsburgh Steelers after beating the New England Patriots and the New York Jets rolling over the Indianapolis Colts after beating the Tennessee Titans. The New York Jets would have to win another difficult road game in San Diego, but beating the Chargers in the playoffs is something the Jets have done before.
In the NFC, the New York Giants take out the Arizona Cardinals before losing to the Minnesota Vikings. The New Orleans Saints offense takes out the Chicago Bears defense and then shocks the world with a win in Philadelphia. The Vikings prove to strong for the Saints on both sides of the ball and advance to the Superbowl.
Minnesota Vikings verse the New York Jets. In an amazing year for rookie quarterback Mark Sanchez, the New York Jets somehow pull out a victory over Brett Favre and company in one of the greatest Superbowls in history.
