Keys to Game 9: Jets vs. Saints
 

The (4-4) New York Jets have surpassed mainstream expectations this year, playing far better than the comical preseason projections. Nevertheless, any playoff push will likely hinge upon the results of week 9: a win leaves them sitting pretty going into the bye week, but a loss would necessitate an almost perfect second half to have a chance. For a rebuilding team, seeing growth in the young guys is probably equally important as a playoff push, but obviously both would be nice. Unfortunately, their week 9 opponent is probably their toughest matchup of the season—a Metlife Stadium showdown with the (6-1) New Orleans Saints. The Saints are an offensive powerhouse that would present difficulties for any secondary, but will be especially challenging for a Jets defense that has allowed a 92.7 passer rating to opposing quarterbacks (11th worst in the league).

Interesting. Hopefully Cam & Junior have an awesome game.

Re: Keys to Game 9: Jets vs. Saints
 

I would think a win against the Bungals last week would have meant a heck of a lot more than a win this week. I know they're rebuilding, but in the scheme of things they need mathematical conference wins more than morale boosters.

Re: Keys to Game 9: Jets vs. Saints
 

Yep, the only way we lose this game is if we give it to them with numerous unforced errors.

Ain't gonna happen this season, we win by 3 scores.

I guess I would say that if I had incurable brain ghonorrhea.

LMAO...

Did you mean to misspell gonorrhea as indicative of the disease?

Funny.

Here's another one:

"... The Saints [ defense is ] the seventh-stingiest in yards (332.4 allowed per game) and third-stingiest in points (17.1 allowed per game). Rex’s defense was horrible last week in a 49-9 loss at Cincinnati."

And, I SO hope Rex puts Milliner in the game!!

Re: Keys to Game 9: Jets vs. Saints
 

Geno smith makes bad decisions and errant throws, we need to take advantage of them on defense

He gets roughly two seconds to throw the ball, our D line should tear it up

We are on the road so I always think those are tough games. That said, November is usually where we start to hit our stride (at least the last few seasons) under SP.

Re: Keys to Game 9: Jets vs. Saints
 

You can count on a Payton/Brees team laying at least 2 eggs every season.

We gave this game to them with more unforced errors than any game I can remember since the Cleveland game 3 years ago.

What the hell is wrong with our offense?

Re: Keys to Game 9: Jets vs. Saints
 

Ben grubbs is on his back more than a 2 dollar hooker
Nick toon could not catch a cold naked in the north pole
Brees is throwing behind receivers, causing tipped passes or he just stares down jimmy graham until the pass rush get there
No running game and no committment to even try a running game
PLAYCALLING - 4th and inches, you call a reverse to our 3rd string TE

DLP and grubbs are getting *****ed every week

Re: Keys to Game 9: Jets vs. Saints
 

Toon is our 5th WR, if Colston is healthy he doesn't see the field.

Brees hit several WR's in their hands and it was tipped up and picked twice. That happens once in every 10-12 games. I'm not really all that worried about that.

No running game is a legit concern.

I was also disappointed in the reverse.

DLP is awful, just awful.
