Houston, we have a problem. The Jets just kicked your asses.
In a MUST win game, the Jets did just exactly that. I first have to tip my camp to Mike Nugent who knocked in 4 field goals with the biggest of all being a 54 yarder to extend the small lead at that time. And he didn't just kick the ball. He made a nice tackle on special teams.
Chad was much better after a few off weeks. He was throwing all over the field with some nice deep passes to C&C - Coles and Cotchery - both whom had over 100 yards receiving. We didn't run great but had the yards when we needed to get them. Chad had a clutch 1st down on a 4th an inches in their own territory, a balsy call by Mangini.
The defense was solid picking off Carr and keeping the run game in tact. The defensive player of the game had to be Kerry Rhodes who had a pick and some nice tackles.
But, it was a team effort. How can you complain with 0 interceptions and 0 fumbles on offense and only one penality in the game and that didn't happen until about 4 minutes remaining. Gotta love that.
Well, we are 6-5, who would have believed. Now, the last 5 opponents have losing records so they are winable games. How nice would 11-5 be? It should only happen.
