Browns, Colts and Eagles not very good too much changeover. Good news, we don't play a good team till week 7.

It's been 15 years since the Jets blew a 8+ point lead in the 4th quarter. Really? Surprising... Well not really. The Jets MO has been they are either blowing someone out or getting blown out. And no that's not a sexual innuendo. Longest active streak in the NFL. That being said... how many 8+ point leads have we had?

That being said... how many 8+ point leads have we had? I can think of a couple of games where we blew double digit 4th quarter leads but came back to win. 2010 against Houston we blew a 23-7 4th quarter lead, but got a late TD pass from Sanchez to salvage a win in the last minute. 2013 on Monday night against Atlanta we blew a 27-14 4th quarter lead, but won on a late FG. 30-28. Offense bailing out the D in those games.

We're trying to win with Defense and a balanced, but run-first offense. It's the same thing we did under Rex. It's just that it's being done better by Bowles so far, and without the penalties and trash talk.
I still like the formula. But in reality, there aren't too many other formulas you can try if you're a team without a franchise QB.
This should be a fun season. The Jets are earning respect and have shown that they can compete with just about anyone in the League. Those Pasts* games will be a real test.

Turnovers need to be turned into points by the O, more often.

When Richardson comes back and Dee Milliner is our #4 CB, this D will really be humming.

Another thing is that I love how we don't abandon the run. It wasn't working with Ivory so we tried some different formations with Powell and kept at it in the 2nd half until we wore them down. We'd abandon the run so fast with the old Rex team. After 2010 "ground and pound" was something we preached but never practiced.

Happy with the win, but I think we got a bit too conservative in the 3rd. With all the turnovers and the Colts down 3 or 4 CBs, we had a chance to deliver the knockout blow in the 3rd but didn't. Worked out for us, so I really can't complain, but I would have liked to see us open the offense a bit more in the 3rd to take advantage of the TOs. Nitpicking, I know. But it really worried me during the game that we were letting them hang around. On the glass half full side of the equation (more like glass 90% full) I loved the way the offense responded after the Colts TD. Didn't have to sweat out the final minutes. Offense in the red zone is completely different than last year. Thank you, Brandon Marshall.

We'd abandon the run so fast with the old Rex team. After 2010 "ground and pound" was something we preached but never practiced. Bingo. I said the same thing in the Chan thread I started last night. You can't turn away from the run, even if it's not working and especially when you have a lead. You have to keep the defense honest. Quite frankly, I think Chan seemed almost stubborn in not giving up on the run even when we were consistently getting 1 or 2 yards per carry. That turned out to be a huge help after the Colts scored to make it 10-7, because Indy still had complete respect for the Jets rush efforts and that likely kept the passing game open. That Brandon Marshall TD drive was a thing of beauty, we had the Colts completely off balance and were passing when they thought we'd run, then actually ran successfully with Powell when they thought we'd pass.
