Jets Playoffs
Well, this one hurts, especially considering that at one point the Jets were up by 11 but ended up losing 17-30 and shut out in the second half. QB Mark Sanchez probably played the best game of his NFL career - 17 of 30 for 257 yards, 2 TD, 1 INT. The loss of RB Shonn Greene surely hurt the Jets, as did the loss of CB Donald Strickland and the blatant roughing the passer non-call, but let's face it the Colts were just the better team today...
Around 5,200 screaming fans gathered this morning at the training facility in Florham Park, NJ to send the New York Jets off to Indianapolis. Hundreds of fans followed the team to Indianapolis where they greeted the Gang Green as they arrived at their downtown hotel.

CB Darrelle Revis finished second in The Associated Press 2009 NFL Defensive Player of the Year voting with 14 votes. CB Charles Woodson of the Green Bay Packers won the award with 28 votes. Despite shutting down elite wide receivers all season long, Revis just did not put up the stats impressive enough to challenge Woodson for the award. Revis finished regular season with 6 interceptions and 1 touchdown. Woodson, on the other hand, recorded 9 interceptions, 3 touchdowns and 4 forced fumbles.
The New York Jets played basically a mistake free game, as they defeated the Cincinnati Bengals on the road, 24-14, and are through to the Divisional Playoffs. Both rookies, QB Mark Sanchez and RB Shonn Greene, played pivotal roles in this great win. Sanchez, battling both single degree wind chills and playoff pressure, performed admirably. He completed 12 of 15 passes for 182 yards, 1 TD and 0 INT. He became the first rookie quarterback who completed over 70% of his passes in a playoff game. Greene ran for 135 yards on 21 carries (6.4 yards per carry) and scored the first Jets' touchdown on a 39-yard run in the second quarter.
