Another Sunday has come and gone but at least the Jets showed some fight and squeaked out a comeback versus the lowly Lions. I was rather upset with Gang Green early in the Detroit game and quite frankly I pretty much gave up hope as to the Jets chances of winning with under 4 minutes to go down 10 points.
I love being wrong when it comes to the Jets. I enjoy the days where I curse this team and their lackluster performances versus traditionally crappy teams. Why do the Jets always play down to their competition? I’ve been asking myself this question for over 20 years and I still do not have an answer. I’ve come to the determination that it’s what the Jets do.
It’s tough to maintain a positive mental attitude when rooting for the Jets because there are just too many memories filled with Doom and Gloom. Is it wrong to talk smack about the team you love? I don’t think so if it gets your frustrations out.
There was not much of a game to talk about. The Jets kept accruing penalty yards and making uneducated plays. A few nice grabs by Dustin Keller kept us in the game. It was great to see a few long pass plays from Sanchez and it was even better that I started Sanchez in my Fantasy league and he did better than projected.
I want to believe in the Jets, yesterday spoke volumes to me as a fan and I am hopeful we take this momentum into the Browns game next week. Go Jets!
