After two straight losses, perhaps facing the Patriots is the tonic the Jets need.
Nick Mangold expects to return to his spot in the middle of the Jets' offensive line this weekend. That's great news for Jets fans -- and not so good for the Patriots.
Antonio Cromartie dares Tom Brady to throw in his direction all day. Go ahead, the Jets cornerback says. He's ready for the challenge.
He's a sure-fire Hall of Famer. A Super Bowl champion. A thorn in the side of the Jets organization. but for Antonio Cromartie, Patriots quarterback Tom Brady is still an expletive.
With the Jets in the midst of a two-game losing streak and under fire from fans and media, coach Rex Ryan got back to keeping things loose.
A Buffalo loss in Cincy brings the Bills back to Earth.
Rex Ryan can't lament this defeat for long. He and the Jets have another grudge match coming up.
After taking two steps forward and one step back following an awful Week 3, Neil decides his picks season is at a crossroads and looks for logical decisions in Week 4 that he won't regret come Monday.
Let's face it, outside of Green Bay, nobody is playing better than the Lions.
Last week, Neil apologized for his Week 1 catastrophe (6-8-2) by going out and throwing a gem (11-4-1). This week he's expecting to compete at a high level once again.
The next five weeks could very well tell the tale of this regular season. Can the Jets play 3-2 or 2-3 football and still make the playoffs? Yes. But any idea of winning the AFC East will go out the window.
The Packers showed championship mettle coming back from 13-0 to Carolina Cams to pull out win, but face a big test this week in NFC championship game rematch in Chicago.
The Jets opened with two straight home wins, but face an early-season test in which they'll hit the road for three consecutive weeks — a stretch they haven't seen in the regular season since the strike-shortened 1982 season.
Neil made a few terrible decisions last week like believing in the Giants, trusting Colt McCoy and the Browns, thinking the Bills would suck again and going against the Lions bandwagon, which is now at capacity.
Who could forget Spygate, the 2007 saga involving Bill Belichick, New York's defensive calls on New England video tape and heavy fines levied by the NFL? Well, it sounds like former Jets coach Eric Mangini would take a mulligan on it.
The first week of football is over, and Joe Benigno is back to rank the NFL's Top 10 teams. Where do his beloved Jets stand?
It feels Jets fans are still spellbound by Rex Ryan, ensconced in a long honeymoon with a man who has led the team a long way, but not far enough. If Ryan doesn't deliver soon his histrionics won't be so clever anymore.
Every week during this NFL season Joe Benigno will rank and present his Top 10 teams. This is Week 1 of Benigno's Best: NFL Power Rankings.
All of the test scores are in, although we won't know the full results until Saturday at 4 p.m. Coach Tom Coughlin, his assistants and general manager Jerry Reese must finish grading the players on the Giants' roster in order to pare the group from 85 to 80 Friday and then to 53 on Saturday.
It was largely a battle of reserves as the Giants rested their starters and New England's first string played just long enough to take a 17-3 lead on the first play of the second quarter.
The Giants are planning to figure out exactly how much depth they have in Thursday night's preseason finale at New England. Here are the three areas you'll want to watch as the Giants play this one.
Eli Manning isn't too worried about his dismal preseason statistics. August is a time to get used to standing in the pocket, to get adjusted to new teammates and to take a hit or two. And that's just what the Giants quarterback says he has done.
Eli Manning created a bit of a stir this week when he declared himself a Top 5 quarterback and put himself in the same class as Tom Brady. Jets quarterback Mark Sanchez didn't have to make such comparisons -- his coach did it for him.
Jets fans aren't going to like what defensive end Shaun Ellis said on Monday after switching sides in one of the NFL's most intense rivalries.
Shaun Ellis, after 11 seasons with the Jets, is headed -- gasp! -- to the rival New England Patriots.
