Yes, apparently he'll be the first as a Rookie. Marino and Roethlisberger both made it in year 2.

I was suprised more by the Chargers last night than the Jets, SD were pretty poor and Rivers was erratic (credit to NYJ for that to be fair). I still don't think they have enough to beat Indy.

The Jets doing well does not surprise me in the slightest. Good across the board on defence. Good Offensive line and running game. Good head coach. As Sanchez develops they will only become more balanced. Add one maybe two more aerial threats to the Jets offense and they could dominate the AFC East in years to come.

oops.

Hey it happens.

2-2 though predicting this week.

He's tipped us to lose again next week too....Superbowl here we come!!!



I thought last night was an object lesson in patience and staying true to your gameplan from the Jets and the pressure on both offence and defence paid off in the long run. Can't see them changing the approach for the Colts as its got us this far and the Colts run defence isnt hugely impressive (statistically at least) but it did keep the Ravens very quiet this weekend. I would safely predict that the Colts will not be anywhere near as ill-disciplined as the Chargers were last night too!

I think the colts D are a very underestimated bunch. They seem to have a knack of producing when it matters. I think Manning will handle the Jets blitz well next week. He seems to do well against blitzing teams because it leaves his receivers in one on one situations. I could be wrong but i think the jets in Indianapolis are a good match up for the Colts personally.

I agree whole heartedly with that quote, they dont tend to get the credit they deserve.

If we can keep a better handle on Dallas Clark than we did on Antonio Gates in the 1st half yesterday then I think the rest of the Colts receivers could be up against it.

Loving this photo from yesterday too...

Its vastly better than the run defence the Colts had when they won the thing! And keeping the Ravens touchdownless (if thats a word) is easy



It'll be far from a walkover (Conference title games never are) but I can't see Manning making the same errors Rivers did.

Still, Ryan saying the Jets are good for the Super Bowl, everyone mocked.......

To be fair to the big man he said after we got beat by the Falcons that this squad of players is good enough to win a superbowl, I don't think he expected it to be this one though from the position we were in then!! He does makes good copy though and he's certainly caused a stir in his first year in the Big Apple and seems to have everyone onside and pulling in the right direction...I don't know how to cope with it having a real-life challenging team for once!!

It'd be karmic justice if the Jets beat Indy again after them only getting into the play-offs because Indy played dead that week.

Defence and great ground attack, the recipe for success in New York(although we kinda went to the air this year)

The Jets in the AFC title game just goes to show again that a turd can be polished once in a while



I am hoping whoever wins the NFC title game wins the SB now, my 2 most hated teams in the AFC game

Such sad news about Gaines Adams he had great potential IMO and such a young age to go



If Ed Reed retires it will be a travesty he is without doubt one of the best players in the league and one of the very few I would pay to see

Jealousy will get you nowhere!!

Why would I be jealous?





From last year when IMO they were terrible to watch and even at the beginning of this year the fact that they have made it to the NFC title game suprises me, whats so wrong with that?

They deserve to be where they are because of the hard work they put in towards the end of the season already Indy and the Bungals playing half a team helped

All credit to the Jets, their defence was really good last night. Our O Line couldn't pick up the blitzs, and we put too much pressure on Rivers, the run game was pathetic. Still, Nate Keading is the man that lost the game for ius. The guy bottles it in the playoffs year after year. He's a joke. I don't think Rivers was erratic. He made one bad play under stupid pressure, but other than that he was excellent. The Revis pick was a freak play that you just have to hold your hands up and say the luck was with the Jets on that one. Revis did his job inforcing the incompletion, getting the takeaway was pure good fortune.

The most disappointing thing about last night was the lack discipline from one on the NFLs least penalised teams. Alot of people are putting that on Norv, but that b**locks to be honest, it's on the players 100%. The two incidents in particular are Phillips stupid head butt and Jackson kicking the challenge flag. No excuses. Just stupidity. The false starts you can forgive due to the jets blitzing like it's going out of fashion and having no run game.

After calming down, I'm still happy that we should've beat a very very good Jets team. Rivers threw for nearly 300 yards on the number pass defence in the league - who knew we were going to pass like mad. The man's amazing.

Next week, I want the Jets to beat the Colts, but can't see it. Vinateri will not bottle it a la Nate and if the Colts can run at all that will help Peyton.

Ernie Accorsi is a genius.

we got Nate Kaeding with one of the aquired picks!!

Maybe because, despite the division win, the Ravens bundled your sorry lot out, at what was Fortress Foxboro



Really looking forward to this game now, that Jets defence against a (hopefully anyway) firing Peyton, should be a cracker.

Tragic news about Gaines Adams.

No mate we got beat fair and square no jealousy here I enjoy watching good football and my lot just didnt play enough of it this year, but theres always next year

RIP Gaines. Very sad news at 26.

Wayne v Revis should be very interesting.

Jets seemed to move Revis around against the Chargers to help cover other receivers so they may not use him exclusively on Wayne come the weekend. They may use him on Clark a bit too. If the Colts O line can stop the Jets blitz Manning wll have some good one on ones downfield. Would not surprise me if Jets blitzed a little less against the Colts because Manning has torched blitzing teams in the past.

If the secondary can cover keep tight coverage on the wideouts then the Colts line isnt good enough to give Peyton enough time. I agree with what you say about him torching blitzing teams as he has a very quick release.
