It’s so hard to come up with something to write about a team which only plays part of a football game. The Jets have so many talented players, and they just can’t finish a game. Eric Mangini showed HIS frustration in the post game interview. What does it take to get a group of good players to play for 60 minutes?

I will not say anyone gave up…I don’t believe that for 1 second. What I saw was the penalties in the second half after so many quarters without one. What happened to the self-disipline? Chad Pennington had one of his most productive days to lose after leading the game! HOW does that happen?

What I saw was an inablility to pick up the blitz and protect Chad. It was like opening the flood gates and EVERYONE got through. Chad’s one mistake was late in the game and VERY costly. The Jets were driving and would have made a win possible had they scored. Instead, Chad throws the interception with a BIG runback. GAME OVER!

I personally have been calling for Chad to be benched and Kellen Clemens becoming the starter. Chad’s performance DID NOT enforce that at all. But, it is time to make a change. WHY? Chad STILL has not proven he can spread the defense. One 55 yard pass will NEVER spread the defense out. If you can’t consistantly connect on long passes, the box will always be loaded. Prove you are able to beat the DB’s and the front will open for the run.

Kellen Clemens has the arm to throw the ball and throw accurately. He NEEDS to start and show what he is able to do. Face it, the Jets are going nowhere this year. It’s time to see if Clemens IS in fact the future. Especially when you have Coles and Cotchery able to break it deep and someone who is able to reach them with some rip behind the ball. Not floaters which barely make it!

Sorry Jets fans, but it’s over for 2007. It’s time to take a look at 2008! The future has to begin this week or there is no future!
