Jets Feast on Thanksgiving

The Jets overcame a pathetic first half against the awful Cincinnati Bengals and won the game 26-10.  For some reason they have major problems getting off to good starts, especially in their own stadium.  It seems like they sleep walk through these games.  Jet fans who came out on Thanksgiving night, sitting in a cold rainy stadium, showed their displeasure by booing the team off the field at end of the first half after a Nick Folk missed field goal and a 7-3 deficit. 

Thanks to an incredible second half performance by Brad Smith, they won comfortably.  Smith scored two touchdowns in the second half.  The first was on a 53 yard run and the second on an incredible 89 yard kickoff return where he lost his shoe and that still did not stop him. 




The string of games against bad teams has now ended.  They go into New England next Monday night with first place in the division and conference on the line.  The Patriots will seek revenge from their week two defeat to the Jets.  The Patriots have been one of the hottest teams in the league and their offense has been unstoppable. If the Jets play like they have the past view weeks, they will not win.   Playing like crap for most of the game and coming back at the end does not work against a team like the Patriots.  They need to finally put together a full 4 quarter performance.

Addition note- Can we please put an end to the incredibly awful flying like a Jet celebration.  Mark Sanchez and Santonio Holmes need to cut off their wings and come up with something new.
