Keep it real guys...

Our 2003 team has been compared to the makeover the Jets went through in 2002. A team with that many new guys needs a lot of time to gel and get on the same page. They also replaced 6 or 7 starters with new guys and I found this interesting...

Their 1st 5 games they gave up 30 points per game. Their next six games they gave up 13 points per game. We had only 3 starters from last years squad start last night. Eight new starters! What did we expect? Did anyone really think we'd go out and dominate one of the very best teams in the NFL playing virtually all of their starters from last year?
In retrospec, I'm surprised we didn't get beat by 50 points.
