I'm a little confused by all the love that the New York Jets have been getting heading into the playoffs. I've barely seen them play at all this year, so I don't know what to make of it. I do know that their last two wins were gifts from teams that had nothing to play for.
I understand that the Jets have an excellent defense and a very good running game. But in the playoffs, you need a better passing game than what I've seen from them. Maybe they can knock off the Bengals, who have been fading, but I don't see them going any farther than that.
I'm inclined to believe that all of this Jets love is happening mainly because they play in New York and their coach is refreshingly candid in press conferences. But I look forward to seeing how they do in the playoffs.
