Jets at Bills

In a nutshell, they did what they had to do. Physically manhandled a team that they should have manhandled, and as a result, took all the variables off the table.

Sanchez has zero INTs through 4 games, and the runnning game has been solid ever since week 1.

That said, this offense wasn't as bad as it looked against the Ravens, and it's not as good as it looked against the Bills.

They're still going to need the D to win some tight games if they want to be a great team. They were already going to be a good team anyway.

Looking forward to the Vikes and getting Santonio on the field.

This team is 3-1 and still have yet to get Holmes and Pace on the field, and they get Revis back. That's tremendous.

What I like most about the Jets chances is that even if a couple of players get injured down the stretch, they have so many options they can withstand it. The offense now consists of Holmes, Braylon, Keller, Cotchery, LT, Greene and Sanchez. Not to mention a beast of an O-line. Good luck shutting that down.

And the D will turn things around. Will they be #1 in all categories like last year? Maybe, maybe not, but they'll be top 5. Good enough balance with offense that Jets should go far this year.

Agreed. However...
the D is older and/or banged up (Jenkins, Ellis, Pace, Revis, Smith, all missed part or all of last game)/

And, we still have an old #1 RB, and a young QB. I'd like those to be reversed.

Just trying to "not get too high or too low."

As opposed to being a Fins fan, which would just be tough to stomach after last night. Too low time.

Yup, and a lot still rides on Sanchez. Having all these awesome receivers is great, but they are nothing if we don't get the ball in their hands. That said, having LT as a checkdown option is a tremendous safety valve. Furthermore, when you flood the field with Holmes, Braylon, Keller, and running threat, I have to believe someone will always be open which should dramatically cut down on interceptions.

I won't even comment on Fins debacle. Too heinous a beating, and additionally I hate the Pats so much I was heavily pulling for the Fins.

I think the Fins actually fired their ST coach before the game even ended--21 pts off ST miscues? Don't think I've ever seen it get that bad...
