Are you kidding me? When have the Jets, in this situation previously, playing the final game of the season with a chance to make the playoffs, against a team with nothing to gain, ever lost before?

I was rooting for the Jets...but the Colts had them on the ropes right when they decided to gift wrap an easy win and bring in the Painter to play qb and pull a bunch of starters on both sides of the ball.

The Colts team who played in the final quarter and a half of the game would have been destroyed by the Rams.

Yeah, but here's the thing: We were up 21-15 on our own 20, and the Colts' defense let us drive 80 yards and put the game away. So yeah, facing Painter helped, but the Jets still had to go win it. The Colts' D had no answer for Shonn Greene all day.

They sat down several starters on the Colts D.

You drove 80 yards against mostly backups making about leauge minimum.

You seem kind of bitter about having a gift handed to you.

There is no way the Jets would have won if the Colts didn't pull something like 12 starters in the 3rd quarter.

The Colts aren't winning it all. They are the most overrated franchise in NFL history. The media blows Manning on the daily and now some of them are trying to say that the Colts are a great organization and THE Gold Standard.

Uh. No they aren't. They have a HOF quarterback. After he's gone it is going to be Detroit Jr.

I agree with coach, and am I the only one that thinks the Jets win even if manning stays in the game? Nice Av rpncaine.

They could have left the starters in for another series and tried to get the kid some more cushion. Short passes, quick drop stuff and runs to get a field goal. Then the fans would have been more of the mind that hey, thats enough, let the kid and the defense try and hold on to it. I really think there wouldn't have been the outrage and booing at the game if that was the way it went down.
