Mac is the man, he has fixed the secondary in one swoop. Best part about it is we have young talented cheap guys that will be able to learn ( Milliner and McDougle) and one day hopefully be able to take over. This defense is going to be nasty, I can just feel it. We have a secondary that is better than 09, and a wayyyy better d-line. Does anyone else smell playoff? I do! I don't think this offense will get us to the playoffs, it needs more development. (frankly I don't know what it's expected to be as far as an identity or whether one is gelling - don't know if "spread offense" constitutes an identity).

This defense also will be menacingly wild. Hostile, violent in force, furiously intense and extremely severe!! The Jets are attacking!!

We got pretty far 2 years in a row with terrible offense. It wasn't terrible, it was middle of the road those two years and it definitely had an identity with players specifically chosen to fill roles in that identity. And they did perform. Here, I don't know what they're planning or if there is a plan. People might not care for "ground and pound" but at least it was a coherent direction. After the 2nd year it went to hell and was terrible, just like everything else on the team.

======================================================== In 09 I'm not one to defend Sanchez, but didn't he have like 5 come from behind victories, and a great game in the first 2 rounds of the playoffs? That said I do agree he sucked.

Don't get me wrong, I absolutely love what this new regime has done in such a short time. With the totally revamped secondary and Bowles being a proven defensive mind, there's no question that the defense has "elite" level potential. However, I'm still taking a cautious, wait and see approach with the offense. I'm optimistic with the additions made already, but we've seen far too much of what poor QB play and poor coaching (not saying Gailey will be poor) can do to our offense and team as a whole. With that being said, I believe in this new regime and I think we're heading in a very positive direction long term.

That said I do agree he sucked. Most of Geno's wins in 2013 were come from behind victories too, not sure that's the best way to measure quality.

Point is, the QB sucked. OK, but the rest of the offense was designed to make up for that. The QB's here are worse (if you ask me) and don't have other parts of the team designed to make up for his shortcomings.

How is anyone going to score on the Jets next season? Without cheating it may prove to be very difficult. Who would have the balls to ignore rules and cheat?

I don't think this offense will get us to the playoffs, it needs more development. (frankly I don't know what it's expected to be as far as an identity or whether one is gelling - don't know if "spread offense" constitutes an identity). We got pretty far 2 years in a row with terrible offense. If we are to make a playoff run this year, I think it comes down to turnovers. We have a defense that should be able to force a lot more than we have seen recently and if our offense can take care of the ball and just be average, then we should be in the mix. Problem is that both of our QBs have been turnover prone. Either Fitz or Geno will need to step up, limit mistakes and not lose games for us..
