First thing is, for the 53rd time I'm not a Jets fan, but I like to believe that I tell it like it is. And granted while the Pats might be ahead of schedule and their future looking bright, to go one and done in the playoffs (at home) after a 14-2 regular season is a failure any way you look at it.

Maybe the stress fracture had something with Brady not running with the ball, but it's far from the reason they lost that game. They were just outplayed and outcoached. I'm sure Brady would trade the division and his probable MVP just for the chance to be playing this week. So the division means nothing if you ask me.

As far as if the Jets lose Sunday, I honestly couldn't consider it a failure based on they ended up being the 6 seed and have had to endure 3 brutally tough road games. Even though the Colts were banged up a bit, they still had to beat Peyton Manning in his own building. Then to beat Brady and the Pats in Foxboro after the ass whiping they took earlier in the year is quite remarkable especially when you look at the beatdown the Jets ended up giving them. As far as I'm concerned they are playing with house money now and their season is a success no matter what the outcome is.

Kudos to brady who not once complained about the stress fracture and had an mvp year. All you haters of the pats get use to them being a top organization for a long time. Go steeelers!

Correct they beat Matt Flynn and the Packers in Foxboro in a game the pack should have won. That is a HUGE accomplishment considering it was his NFL debut

You got knocked out of the playoffs, at home, by your arch rival. At some point it's better to just take the beating and shut up. Yet somehow the team that knocked you out will be a bigger failure if they lose in the AFC Championship?

I very rarely post in here because being English, most people think that the only sports I know about are Football(soccer), Cricket & Rugby
After being married to a Bostonian for 15 years, and meeting her in England 18years ago, I started taking notice of American Sports( Football & Baseball).
I,m a Patriots fan and a Cardinals fan. I live in Queens NY and I frequent a watering hole that is a Jets bar. They all know I'm a Patriot fan, and I have had the pleasure of beating them and going to 5 Super Bowls since I lived here. After losing to the far better team on Sunday, I called some good friends after the game to congratulate them on their win and I even visited the Bar after work on Monday to take the good natured abuse that I knew I would get. After seing some of the whining posts from some Pats fans, I hope they go on to win the Superbowl. The last team I am rooting for is the Steeler scumbags.
Good luck Jets fans.

Cool Only team people remember is the champ!

Their is only one team that people remember at the end of the season and that is the champ! Everyone else is forgotten. By the way, whats wrong with me standing up for myself? Should I just let stupid post his crap with no response? In the end the jet will crash in pittsburgh! I have alot of confidence in big ben and tomlin getting the win! Go steelers!

So you are saying that you forget the 16-0 patriots team? I remember a lot of teams that didn't win it all.
