If there are things the Jets and Raiders have on common it's 'potential' and 'rebuilding'

Before the buy week I would allow myself to look at the last 4/5 games and think 'we can win them'! Not now! I don't know how the Jets are still in post season contention. It's only mathematical as in reality they're just not good enough to make it.
But really, thinking back to August, I can't say I'm surprised at where the Jets are considering the rookie QB and the rebuilding that's going on. 5 wins, including beating Pats and Saints, is something! It's amazing when looking at the loses! The problem for Rex is if they loose all the games after the buy. He could be a goner.
As for Geno, I read that apparently his form tailed off badly when he was at West Virginia too. He'd start the season brightly, throw some good balls and be a threat but as the games go on he becomes less and less effective. The thought being that other teams could shut him down too easily once they worked him out. He may not have enough tools for the NFL. Honestly, I liked what I saw of Geno early on. He showed promise. But now, well, time will tell. I agree about Simms, he's got nothing. Geno has to start the final 4 games. No doubt. Rex has said he'll start against the Raiders. The Jets have to play him to have a better idea of what they have. Similar with McGloin - is he the real deal?? Got to play him to find out! Mornhinweg needs to unshackle Geno, mix up the offensive plays, get play action working and on and on and *sigh* The Jets offence plays too defensively and is playing scared. And that's a self fulfilling prophesy!
Oh, I was so glad to see Schillens go! Problem is that Hill is just as bad and Holmes doesn't want to be there! It's a sad state of affairs. Jets passed up on numerous decent WRs in the last few drafts and that need to change.
I'll be watching it live too. If I have the stomach for it! The Jets have been horrible to watch the last few weeks. Just horrible! I hope they do some kind of job, any kind of job(!), against your boys but I'm not confident at all. Do you Tweet? I may have to annoy you through the game

@drmiremare if you do. Jets for the W!
