True, this game in particular was supposed to be close.... but in general the Patriots already won 3 Super Bowl titles in the last decade, it's now someone else's turn.

I rooted for the Saints in the SB last year, just cause I always knew that Brees was a class act and NO never won a SB before, don't think they ever even went to one. I don't particularly "like" any teams other than my own

only thing I like about the Jets are their unis, really.

Damn Jets allowed Brady to score 81 points, causing me to lose by 5.

This is why I hate the Patriots. It's not the first time they've done that. I know they wanted Ryan to eat his words but they had clearly made their statement already. No need to be douchebags about it.

I am a Jets fan but I honestly don't have a problem with that. The Jets playing a little bit of the D they're capable of is supposed to stop that. That said let them run it up. It's a man's game....so far.

That said, it's starting to feel like the 1986 Jets.

Thank you Braylon and Shayne Graham. Just enough to clinch a bye by one point. :whew:

So are the Jets really 40 points worse than the Pats? I knew the Pats were red hot and I knew the Jets won some close games that they probably should've won by more. Let's see how they react against the perfect punching bag: My Fins!

We'll beat the fish....probably with a 25 yd field goal in OT that Nick Folk will deflect off the upright.

Damn - what a snoozer of a game. Glad I recorded and watched most of it in FFWD rather than sit through the whole thing.

I hope Randy Moss watched every second of that game cried the entire time when he sees what could have been for him.

Run up the score, sure. But going for it on 4th and 1 when you're in FG range and you're up by 35 points? That's just assholish. I'd be doubly mad if I were a Jets fan (at both my own team and the other team) and I'd feel bad if I were a Pats fan.

I still remember when they flipped the Titan's on their stomachs and just raped them. If the Titans coach wasn't Jeff Fisher at the time he would have gotten the axe for sure.

I don't think he cares. He's like T.O. all he probably cares about is $$$$ and stats. I remember last year T.O. was comparing himself to Roy Williams, his "replacement" and mentioned that his stats were better, so it's all good

So much for an entertaining MNF game.


And so much for the Jets softening up the Pats for Da Bears...

I don't think the Pats offense would be firing on all cylinders like it is now with Moss in the lineup. Those 2 tight ends are a match up nightmare for other teams.

I agree...

A line-up with that Diva will demand a percentage of throws tossed his way or he'll pout, whine, cry, scream, tantrum, repeat, repeat, repeat...Without him, and with the decades Brady has to stand in the pocket, he can throw to whoever is the best bet and most open...

Point taken and I don't necessarily disagree with you. But I can't blame Bill, Tom and Pats for definitively asserting who the Alpha. Especially given ALL the yapping coming out of Jersey most of the season.

Now, score run ups @ lesser levels (i.e.: High School and College) is unacceptable. But at this level: pile it on. If the Jets are supposed to be a Super Bowl contender then, it's the Pat's job to show the world that the opposite is true....which they did.

As far as the Jets go, their main inspiration needs to come from the 2007 NY Giants who seemed to stagger through that season before putting it together once they hit the post season.

All the Jets had to do was stop them, don't blame the Pats because the Jets didn't stop a fourth down play. They went for not kicking a FG and scoring more points, all they had to do, was be stopped and the Jets would have gotten the ball on downs.

Not like it was the best trick play in the world to make the fourth down yards needed. The Pats simply ran it up the middle.

I definitely see that point. All I'm saying is there's a thin line between sportsmanship and being trashy, and the Pats tippy-toed that line. I know for sure there's a point where it gets excessive, and I'm not saying the Pats did it. I just question their actions a little.

I'm with you on this. I think there was about 4 minutes or so left when the Pats got the ball back after a 4th down turnover. I was shocked to see Brady put back out there.

they started running the ball half way through the 4th. and the starters were pulled with 6 minutes left...

it could have been 2 touchdowns worse easily.

This comes up time and time again for any team, no QB or player is going to come out of a game like that. Brady earned the win, let him finish the game.

Damn your boys got their ass handed to them. It was like JV vs. Varsity.

Ryan saying he was ready to go right back on the field to take on the Pats again. Give it a rest and regroup for another day.

Does he not earn the win if he's taken out with 5 minutes left and up by 42? The win is his either way. Taking someone out with 5 minutes left and up a bunch isn't the same as sitting out game 15 or 16 when you've already earned a playoff spot. The game could have got out of hand and Brady could have taken a shot. There was no good reason to leave him out there IMO. Didn't have anything to do with running up the score.
