No love for the Jets. You'll be sorry... you'll all be sorry..........

Are you sure? I don't expect it to necessarily be that much of a blood bath for once...

Blood bath...? You mean like the game New England won by two points after a blocked field goal last year?  Or the one point victory later in the season? The three point overtime win the Jets had before that?  Or the 3 point New England win before that?  And the Jets are much better than they were those two years.

You have to go back about 3 years to find a bloodbath.  And in those past three seasons, 5 out of the 6 games were decided by three points or less.  Get your facts straight before trying to insult my team :).

And that's the reason I'm bringing it up.  People are picking New England more based on perception than reality.  Jets have a decent shot at winning this, and in a league like this, you have to take a few against the grain picks to win.  Wouldn't be a bad idea to take a chance on the Jets this week.

Yes the Jets look much better this season, but they still have a no one at QB. Even with the Pats playing a 1-win Jags team, their opponents still have a better record than the combined Jets Opponents. They haven't played anyone that means anything (except maybe the Eagles, and they lost that one when the Eagles were still trying to figure things out) and their QB has still thrown 7 picks, and only 9 TDs. They have a great ground game, again, against not so great defenses, and their passing game because of Fitzpatrick is underwhelming. They were close the past couple of years, but I don't think this one is going to be as close as you may be thinking. Fitzpatrick will lose this thing for you, and probably by a couple of TDs. Either way, it should make for an entertaining game, and a good barometer for your team.
