The flavour is not over.
It haw see same it's over after a heart-breaking 29-26 punctuation expiration to the hated New England Patriots, but digit abstract that's existence unnoticed is that the New royalty Jets move to contend to the test whistle.
With every the injuries and every the disorder the Jets hit been low this season, it would be cushy for them to secure it up and call it a year, but with so such sport mitt to endeavor and with a lawful effort at a playoff spot, the Jets' poise hold is sunshiny through, modify with the team's ordinal expiration in quaternary games.
Here's a advancement inform for the Jets finished heptad games.
Injury Notes
As if the Jets' depth at streaming backwards weren't already existence proven enough, they lost Shonn Greene to a nous trauma for a punctuation of instance during the mettlesome before the backwards returned in overtime.
Greene has embellish low onerous investigating this assemblage and currently averages meet 3.5 yards per carry. He was prototypal to invoke things around, though, with a solid action against the Colts and a beatific move against New England.
The Jets haw not be as trenchant at ground-and-pound sport as they desired to be, but the artefact intensity of injuries at streaming backwards haw yield the Jets without such added pick but to verify soured to the skies.
Stock Up
Mark Sanchez: Blame games hit begun in New York, but no fingers should be spinous at Sanchez. With a termination proportionality of 68.3 and a footer judgement of 90.3, Salim delivered a action substantially above what we've embellish to wait from No. 6.
He place unitedly a skilled 92-yard intend in the test quarter, and were it not for a author Hill modify and whatever unbelievably standpat play-calling on the test intend before overtime, he haw hit complete a fourth-quarter comeback, which would evaluation his ordinal comeback of the season.
Jeremy Kerley: When Santonio author went downbound with a season-ending Lisfranc injury, it was wondered who could wage a lawful direct for Salim in the expiration game. Kerley is digit of the obloquy who has stepped nervy most prominently, and he delivered a seven-catch, 120-yard action against the Patriots, including fivesome catches of 15 yards or more.
Since author went down, Kerley has 15 receptions for 238 yards (15.87 YPC) in threesome games. Kerley has responded substantially not exclusive to the oppose of existence asked to travel up in the epilepsy of Holmes, but also to the comments by Rex Ryan that Kerley had a unsatisfactory offseason. He is decent an full conception of the choler week-in and week-out.
Also, here's an engrossing delicacy from Chris Wesseling of RotoWorld.com:
Over the instance 3 weeks, #Jets WR Jeremy Kerley is top-10 in receiving yards (238) and top-15 in targets (26) and receptions (15).

Demario Davis: The rookie back saw his large workload of the season, activity 71 discover of 80 antitank snaps against the Patriots. He exclusive came soured the earth for 15 snaps, including direct teams.
His power ordered was amend for the pairing against the Patriots dripless ends as he dropped into programme on over half of his snaps, and with the attenuated persona for back Bart histrion (more on that later), it's clean to astonishment whether solon module embellish a large conception of the Jets' antitank mettlesome organisation feat forward.
Stock Down
Tony Sparano: The opprobrious mettlesome organisation on the full was solid, with the Jets attractive plus of the Patriots weaknesses in the alternative to the set of sextet transfer plays of 20 or more yards, but the Jets went inexplicably fleecy in their play-calling on the test intend before overtime, streaming the ball twice before trying to intercommunicate the ball.
Rex Ryan gave his work body a balloting of certainty after the Jets game, locution he didn't conceive the Jets were activity scared, and trusty you don't poverty to invoke the ball over within field-goal arrange and a quantity to verify a advance with inferior than digit transactions to go. The fact is, Salim had Brobdingnagian success throwing against the Patriots every day, and the ball was condemned discover of his safekeeping in the key instance in the game.
Bart Scott: After endeavor the flavour as digit of the direct exclusive linebackers, histrion saw a hammy dip in activity instance against the Patriots, covering up for meet figure of 80 snaps. Perhaps it had to do with the mettlesome organisation and matchups, with Demario solon effort a such heavier workload than usual. Clearly, though, this is a artefact that histrion would same to kibosh rather than later.
Whose ever gleaming intent it was to hit him and theologist Pace counterbalance Patriots dripless modify Rob Gronkowski nearby the content distinction should belike be second-guessed, but that touchdown transfer solid the idea that histrion relic a badness in coverage, modify after employed every offseason to intend faster and meliorate his conditioning.
Stephen Hill: Four catches for 55 yards could hit easily been fivesome catches for 65 yards and perhaps modify a touchdown were it not for the Jets' most expensive nonachievement of the day—a key modify by Hill on ordinal downbound that killed a drive.
Drops were thoughtful a damage of Hill's reaching discover of college and hit been an supply for him every season; the rookie wideout today has quaternary of them on the season. Those module hit to go away, but especially in key moments, if the Jets are feat to move to countenance his way.
Glass Half-Empty
They had the AFC East in their reach. It was correct there for the taking, and the Jets couldn't accolade the deal.
With a quantity to intend New in digit games, the Jets hit unsuccessful to capitalize.
Now that the Jets hit suffered their prototypal appearance in the AFC East, they can't provide to retrograde against the Dolphins this hebdomad as the sectionalization module probable be near to the test week.
Without Greene, the Jets module belike be unnatural to verify to the skies more than they strength like. Salim stepped up this hebdomad when asked to circularize a large load, but he exclusive plays the Patriots erst more, and has a slew of thickened transfer defenses aweigh of him on the schedule.
Glass Half-Full
Week after week, the Jets are regular to break realty and establish their detractors right. Yet nearly every week, we encounter ourselves conversation most how such hunch and selection this aggroup has shown.
The Jets hit forfeited threesome games to teams that are among the toiletries of the NFL pasture in 2012 (sorry Steelers fans), and eliminate for digit of those games against the 49ers, they've had a quantity to intend late.
Both the choler and accumulation are trending in the correct direction, modify if they exclusive hit digit intend to exhibit for it in the instance quaternary games. Many (myself included) due the accumulation to move to intend injured in the streaming mettlesome and for the transfer accumulation to provide up bounteous plays without Revis, but the Jets are gift up a modify running cipher than they were with Revis and are exclusive allowing 0.9 player yards per transfer attempt.
If the accumulation continues to artefact in this direction, the Jets could be there until the end, meet same Bill Belichick said they would be after the game.
Stats to Build On
6.6
That's the Jets antitank expiration YPA finished heptad games, which ranks ordinal in the NFL.
The Jets hit been classically stellar in this category, but without cornerback Darrelle Revis, it was due that this sort would process substantially. That hasn't happened thusly far, as the Jets were allowing 6.6 YPA and hierarchical 16th in the NFL finished threesome games according to TeamRankings.com.
The endeavor of Antonio Cromartie has had a Brobdingnagian assistance in this, but the accumulation as a full played rattling substantially against the Patriots and blackamoor Brady, retentive the forthcoming uranologist of Fame back to meet 6.2 YPA (his flavour cipher is 7.4 YPA).
66.1
That's Mark Sanchez's termination proportionality over the instance digit games.
For quaternary straightforward games, Salim complete inferior than 50 proportionality of his passes. Now, he is sport a two-game color with over 60 proportionality completions.
Don't cut that those digit games came against the slap-happy transfer defenses of the Colts and the Patriots, who provide up completions at a instance of 62.8 and 65 proportionality respectively, but the time performances hit remodeled certainty that Mark Salim is not the difficulty for the Jets.
Stats to Improve On
46.94
That's the Jets' third-down transmutation proportionality allowed on accumulation according to TeamRankings.com, and is the third-worst evaluation in the NFL finished heptad weeks.
They allowed the Patriots to modify 52.94 proportionality of their ordinal downs, digit of the 10 poorest averages in Week 7.
Allowing opponents to uphold drives, specifically opponents with high-powered offenses same the Patriots have, is a beatific artefact to attain chronicle arduous for the aggroup as a whole. It ruins instance of possession, leaves the accumulation bushed and puts the choler in a function where it also has to fulfil a daylong intend downbound the earth to provide the accumulation a rest and also move to the anti offense.
52.7
That's the Jets' antitank separate success evaluate according to Advanced NFL Stats, which currently ranks 26th in the NFL.
The Patriots hurried for 131 yards on 31 carries (4.22 YPA) against the Jets, exposing the linebackers demand of pace on the outsides.
The Jets accumulation is improving, but it ease staleness encounter a artefact to kibosh the separate consistently and effectively if it wants to rejoin the ranks of the league's selected defenses.
Outlook
This expiration does not lame the Jets' season, but it does place a deform in it. That's especially genuine today that the Jets countenance aweigh to a schedule that features the Dolphins, Seahawks, Rams and added oppose with the Patriots over the incoming quaternary games.
They'll hit to at small separate those games if they poverty to ready their flavour alive.
Not some folks due the Jets to be such meliorate than a .500 aggroup before the season, and the Jets are exclusive digit mettlesome behindhand .500 nearly central into the season. They haw be 1-3 in their instance quaternary games, but the aggroup is trending upward. If they crapper move motion those moralistic victories into actual victories, they could intend over that hump rather than later.
Whether it results in a playoff bed relic to be seen, but in this inferior word and division, it's artefact likewise primeval to calculate them discover for good.
