Sunday presented a very nice day for New York football. The New York Jets beat the Miami Dolphins. The score? 31-28! That is not the telling story. It’s HOW the Jets won the game! Looking at the stats, the Jets lost the game.

So HOW did they win? Chad Pennington, that’s how! 15 for 22 with no interceptions. Yep, only 124 yards but, those were needed yards at required times. 8-13 in third down conversions compared to 3-9 by Miami. That shows the defense played much better than in the past couple games. What about the big ZERO for interceptions? Chad Pennington showed up for the game and played well! Don’t forget about that much needed scramble Chad had for a TD!

When you see a stat like total yards; Miami 424, Jets 256, that is what makes the game alarming! It also PROVES the Jets defense did their job! The Jets defense was able to stop the Dolphins when they had to. My hats off to Eric Mangini and the entire New York Jets team. What ever they did worked GREAT, at least for one game.

Keep it up guys! We want ALL New York teams to do well!

See you next week!
