It seems about time to read a Crackback Fanpost. Crackback lost it a little like we all did last year watching the Mark Sanchez Titanic go down, but there is nobody who is better at drawing forth...

Okay, he isn't a mystery man in the usual Man With No Name sense, but for a team as high profile as the Jets and a league as heavy-weight as the NFL, Neil Glat has moved with an almost...

Football Outsiders DVOA and Weighted Defense Rankings I've spent more than a little time documenting how monumentally bad Sanchez has been, but he wasn't the only clunker on the Jets last...

Rex WonEspecially after watching Woody's body language and facial expressions when Rex was talking about becoming an attack unpredictable offense, it felt as if Rex had succeeded in...

Not Full Time There is the thought out there that the way that Coples' season went was that he wasn't played much for some mysterious reason, but that eventually Rex saw the light and started...

Mark Sanchez supporters are hard to be found these days, and it has become nearly tiresome to talk about how bad he has been this season. Even optimistic and very reasonable predictions...

It's what we all knew, but there is some sort of perverse, and even scientific, satisfaction in seeing exactly where Sanchez stacked up, and the company he kept when looking at the worst...

There has been this very odd Rex talk about Scott that has mirrored his unwavering support of Sanchez. We saw it most evident after the Pats game where Scott almost single handedly let that game...

People do a lot of complaining about the lack of productivity from the Jet Outside Linebackers, the lack of pass rush, the age, but a hidden and perhaps serious flaw in the Jets defense is...

It might seem to some that it really doesn't matter who starts this week. If Sanchez starts and he does poorly we can just put McElroy in just like we did last week. If McElroy starts he'll...

One was a headline grabbing, GQ cover making California stud, the other just a product of the system, a team with a great running game. But which one in his career would have been more ready...

Not much commentary here. Down 7, 2nd quarter, on the 30. A chance to redeem Sanchez's near-red-zone INT - still very much a game. I'm not sure if the coaching staff has designed extreme inside...

It is hard to remember exactly what this game was like at this point. More than half of the 1st quarter had expired and the score was 0-0. The Defense had been pretty stout, and the Jets were...

I posted these in a thread, but might as well put them here so more can see them. End of the 3rd Quarter, the Rams behind less than a score. Jets closing in a two-score lead. Sanchez looks at his...

The above is from the best Playoff hunt site I know, the CBS Playoff Hunt page. The remaining schedule and tie-break advantage (yellow) are available on hover. I"m sure someone will do a much...

Meme and Fact Some thoughts about the meme that is running around the internet that Tebow is a bad practice player. You find people saying things like "a notoriously bad practice player"...

Disaster in Ancient Greek means "to be under an ill star". I just got through rewatching and charting Sunday's game against Seattle because I wanted to see just how many short passes there were,...

It is pretty hard to carve out a happy place when looking at Russell Wilson for today's game, but we can at least have hope in that Rex has a very good record against rookie or very inexperienced...

Stats are funny things. Famously, with them you can find support for anything you like, citing anecdotally or compiling in a cherry picking way. But when the stats are proven to...

The Football Outsiders numbers are out for this week and they pretty much tell us what our eyes are telling us. I'm posting them here for people's convenience. For those that don't follow these...

I haven't read a Jet response on the blocked punt, and from the way that Westhoff was talking to hm it seemed that there was something about his assignment choice that was not right. But upon...

Maybe the Jets Need a Bomber I want to start by making it clear that I don't believe that anything short of serious injury would cause the Jets to start Tebow, or even give him a half of...

This post is a thought-riff off Scott Salmon's There's a Storm Coming Maybe you guys can come up with an example, but I can't remember a football player turning around his effort, his attitude,...

In a certain way we can say that everything before this was a wash. Sanchez had some pretty poor 1st half play with high tipped throws that were just begging to be picked off, an embarrassing...

Neither play "wins the game"There is running around out there in the ethersphere the idea that Sanchez once again was the victim of drops that ruined a heroic comeback against an arch-rival....

Coming off a very good game which may have had even bigger numbers if he had been allowed to throw the ball down field, after several very frustrating weeks it seems there are two camps of Jet...

Sure, this has been brought up, but what in the world is going on here? 7 carries for the season 4 of which were against the Texans (not much happened there). Greene is ranked 30th in the league...

Down 9, 12 minutes to go, on the 3 yard line. Tebow had been taken out after looking great, and then an incompletion to Powell. The game is in reach. But then Watt bats his second game-changing...
