The New York Jets host the Oakland Raiders this Sunday, and the mission is simple: win, and they make the playoffs. Considering how well the Jets have been playing lately, and how horrible the Raiders have been, is there any doubt that NY will be able to take care of business, beat the Raiders and reach the postseason?

Has Randy Moss given up on the season?...I had to bench him in one league...geez...

No way the Jets expect to walk over the Raiders...but they should win. The Jets then earn the 6th seed in teh AFC as a 10-6 team.

Vilma and Co. on defense should be able to limit the Raiders offense.

I'd be very wary of the Raiders. This is the type of game that the Jets should definitely win...and will end up losing.

What's your problem, Nuke?

You got to keep up the momentum.

This has the feel of that supposed walkover of the Bills 2 weeks ago Marc that's what i'm afraid of.

Well, the season is on the line.

Nothing to be afraid of.

Having been a jet fan since the Heidi game back in '68, I know what it's
like to be disapointed. But if they approach Oakland as a dangerous opponent, they could win, and Mangini has turned the organization around. He might be to Bellechick what Bellechick was to Parcells, a
student that out does the teacher. Let's see 10 & 6.

1) One of their best seasons.
2) Playoff bound.
3) 3 game win streak
4) Mangini gets coach of the year.

One thing about the coach that's been overlooked is How smart he was
in the draft. If he is this good with next years draft, they could be a
solid contender.

hey sald, welcome to the forum

the Jets had a great year and should be able to keep it up for many more to come

seems to me they need to draft a QB to gain experience behind Chad

youre right about not taking the Raiders too lightly......that would be a huge mistake......this is just the kind of game that ruins a season

Need to draft a QB to gain experience? What about Kellen Clemens???? Already on the team? #6?

Every die hard Jets fan already knows how this game is going to turn out in the back of their minds. The Jets are going to find a way to lose this one. Many are being fooled into thinking that some new force has taken over the team, but they will be jolted back to reality by Sunday night and wonder why they ever have bothered to care. That being said, I hope I am wrong, but I have seen too much to not anticpate the worst.

Yet even if they do lose it's a better fate than being stuck with Eli Manning as your quarterback after giving up the world for his non-ability!!
