The Opening Weekend of NFL Football was simply incredible with many upsets and breakout performances. The excitement climaxed on Sunday Night Football where the New York Jets on the Tenth Anniversary of 9-11 had one of the most amazing come from behind victories over the Dallas Cowboys winning 27-24.

This game was emotional. The Jets took off a little slow out of the gates, but then the fourth quarter arrived and the New York Jets behind the energy of 80,000 loud fans made play after play on offense, defense and on special teams to win a game that looked out of reach.

Nick Folk 50 yard field goal gave the Jets the 3 point lead with less than a minute to play. Kicker Nick Folk made the biggest kick in his career, taking avenge on the team that cut him a few years ago.

Mark Sanchez threw for over 300 yards and never quit after making a couple of mistakes. The quarterback Mark Sanchez found different receivers in crucial situations and made just enough plays to pull out the epic win over Rob Ryan’s highly touted defense.

Rex Ryan defense gave up a couple long scoring drives early in the game, but then they got comfortable and put a ton of pressure on Dallas Cowboy Quarterback Tony Romo.  The special teams and the defense decided the game by making some tremendous second half plays. Brian Schottenheimer was steadily aggressive calling pass after pass and only sprinkling in the occasional run. The aggressiveness payed off when the Cowboys secondary was injured and worn down allowing Jets receivers to find openings and opportunities that they took advantage of over and over.

Special Teams of the Jets came up with the biggest plays of the game. The blocked punt return for touchdown made the entire stadium go bonkers. Then Nick Folk drilled the kick of his life to send the Jets into the win column.

Jets Defense by many players including stars Bart Scott and Darrelle Revis. Linebacker Bart Scott pressured Romo and had some huge tackles. Corner back Darrelle Revis made the interception late which set-up the game winning field goal. Romo had the lead and the Cowboys were in the driver seat. However, the pressure of the moment forced Romo to make mistakes, and the Jets capitalized in the biggest way.

Ladainian Tomlinson was making plays including many huge first downs by catching Mark Sanchez passes in the flat and finding the first down chains and doing whatever it took to get past the chains. In reality the stars of the Jets all seemed to make plays.

Plaxico Burress was quite in the first half and then he made his return to the NFL memorable. With several catches on the game none were bigger than the Mark Sanchez to Plaxico Burress touchdown pass down the sideline.

Jim Leonard who ran all the way down the field and made a game changing tackle that preceded the Tony Romo goal line fumble that ignited the comeback.

New York Jets Come From Behind Victory Over the Dallas Cowboys on Sunday Night Football, just had to repeat the title because this win was something special on a truly special day in American History. God Bless America and thank you to all the men and women who lost their lives saving others on that unforgettable day ten years ago. The NY Police Department, NY Fire Department, First Responders and all those who lost their lives  you will all, forever, be in our hearts.

The New York Jets verse the New England Patriots game in Foxborough on Sunday, January 16, 2011 is one of the most historic games in franchise history. The Jets are made to win now, and this win would be monumental.

Pittsburgh awaits the winner for the right to go to the Superbowl in Dallas.

Epic Playoff Victory

In a Playoff Win for the Ages

Jets Defeat Bengals.

The New York Jets, who were way outside looking into the playoffs just a few weeks ago have now become the NFL Cinderella.

Total Team Effort. Sanchise Delivered. Defense Delivered. Running Game, Special Teams and Coaches Delivered. Dustin Keller Played Great. How about that for playoff experience for Mark Sanchez.

This win needs to be celebrated.

Love Rex Ryan. Before the game, the New York Jets coach did an indirect Joe Namath type guarantee by passing out a practice/off day schedule to the entire team through February 9, 2010 – the day of the Superbowl Parade.

Monday Night Football

Miami Dolphins 31 New York Jets 27 in an instant classic in the Miami verse New York rivalry.

This football game was a Monday Night masterpiece with back and forth lead changes in the fourth quarter with both vertical passing and a variety of running plays by both teams.

In the end, the Dolphins used the so called wildcat formation to run in on third and goal to take the lead with just 6 seconds remaining in the game. Several key third down conversions on that drive and during the entire game kept the Dolphins wildcat on the field all game long.

Chad Henne Looked Brilliant

Chad Henne has been a starter for two weeks and we made him look like Joe Montana. 20-26 for 241 yards and two touchdowns.

Jets Defense

The Jets defense looked bad, Like on your heels bad. Like negative 1 fantasy points bad. All game it felt like we needed one stop, and that stop never came. I hardly remember any great defensive plays all game, except possibly Kris Jenkins up the middle rush to break up a play in the backfield and Kerry Rhodes goal line stop on 2nd down during the Dolphins game winning drive.

This defense is so good but where are the interceptions, fumbles and sacks?

Braylon Edwards

Braylon Edwards is a beast and probably one of the best in season additions for any team in recent memory. Edwards showed great hands during several clutch receptions. Most impressive was Edwards ability to get vertical to make a catch and his hand strength in holding onto some balls he had to fight for against the defensive backs of Miami. If the Jets had won this game all the attention would have been about the positive impact of Braylon Edwards and the immediate confidence Mark Sanchez showed in him.

Mark Sanchez

Mark Sanchez made some throws that were so precise and well timed that Jets fans have to feel blessed that we have such a young talent. Against the Dolphins, Sanchez may not have put up gaudy numbers, but his opportunities were limited due to the emphasis on the running game by both teams eating up the clock. Though when he did drop back to pass his accuracy was very good including a couple of deep throws. Mark Sanchez also showed his cool in the fourth quarter leading two touchdown scoring drives and at the end of the half leading to a go-ahead field goal. Mark Sanchez did enough to win this game with everyone on the offense contributing. If you only were to watch the offense you would have thought the Jets won by a comfortable margin because you would expect the one of the NFL’s best defenses to have held the Dolphins very average offense to at most a few scores.
