Two weeks ago, the Jets were flying high entering a game in New England. One 45-3 loss later, they had the wind taken out of their sales. It showed last week in a pathetic 10-6 loss to the Dolphins. That game set NFL football back a few seasons, but it also set the Jets back. They have games at Pittsburgh, at Chicago and at home against Buffalo left.

Twice his receivers were stopped short of the goal line or he may have had four touchdowns on the day. His only interception came on the Giants’ final drive on a controversial no-call on Amani Toomer. more ›
