aaron maybin
Once a bust is always a bust. LB Aaron Maybin, a former Buffalo first round pick who was deemed a bust before signing with the New York Jets last season and leading the team with six sacks, was cut by the Gang Green earlier today. After seemingly redeeming himself last season, Maybin struggled immensely in this year's campaign, recording just one tackle in eight games. He was inactive on Sunday against the Seattle Seahawks.
Despite some gaudy statistics in 2011, the defense was not as dominant as it had been the previous two seasons. Highlighting this was the 95 yard drive led by Tim Tebow to end the week 11 matchup against the Broncos or the 99 yard Touchdown given up to the Victor Cruz and the Giants. Many times during the season you would likely see Eric Smith desperately chasing an opposing Tight End or receiver down the field.
December 15, 2011A Look at the Eagles Offense
posted by: Murrell2878 | 1 comments | Jets Regular Season
This week the Jets are traveling to the City of Brotherly Love to play the 5-8 Philadelphia Eagles with a clear objective - win and stay in front of the race for the final Wild Card spot. To achieve this objective the Jets must try and stop one of the league’s most potent offenses. The Eagles have dealt with injuries to their star quarterback, injuries to their receiving core and a bout with diva wide receiver. At times they have shown their potential to be an explosive offense gaining over 400 yards in 7 games this season. But frequently they have shown to be ineffective and mistake prone – ranking 30th in turnover ratio and last in the NFL in INTs thrown.

Defensive coordinator Mike Pettine announced that LB Jamaal Westerman will replace LB Garrett McIntyre as the starting outside linebacker in the base defense. The battle for this position has been going on since LB Bryan Thomas was lost for the season in Week 4. Westerman started in Week 6 against the Dolphins but then lost the job to LB Josh Mauga who started in Week 7. McIntyre started in the last three games.
December 4, 2011Jets Make Another Comeback, Beat Redskins 34-19
posted by: Site Admin | 0 comments | Jets Regular Season
RB Shonn Greene's three touchdown runs and QB Mark Sanchez's 4th quarter touchdown pass to WR Santonio Holmes propelled the Jets past the Washington Redskins and one step closer to making the playoffs. It wasn't pretty though as the game was rather even throughout the first three quarters. The Jets took the lead in the final quarter on a 30-yard TD pass from Sanchez to Holmes. Then, three plays later, LB Aaron Maybin sacked the quarterback forcing a fumble that was recovered on Washington's 9-yard line. Two plays later Greene scored his second touchdown of the game, sealing the deal.
November 27, 2011Jets Stay Alive In Playoff Race As Sanchez Throws 4 TDs
posted by: Site Admin | 0 comments | Jets Regular Season
QB Mark Sanchez threw a career-high four touchdown passes, including the winning score to WR Santonio Holmes, as he overcame his second quarter interception and led the Gang Green to a 28-24 comeback win against the Buffalo Bills. Sanchez might have been erratic at times, throwing into double and triple coverage, but when the game was on the line, he pulled himself together and orchestrated a 12-play game-winning drive that went for 77 yards. This was surely a morale booster for the Jets' signal caller that hopefully will help the Gang Green turn this season around, as they pretty much have to win all of their remaining games.
October 18, 2011Revis' Big Plays Propel Jets To Win Against Dolphins
posted by: Site Admin | 0 comments | Jets Regular Season
Not many teams throw at CB Darrelle Revis, but the Miami Dolphins were stupid enough last night to do so on quite a few occasions. They paid the price, as Revis intercepted two passes and returned one of them 100 yards for a touchdown that turned out to be the game winner. Revis' pick six was crucial as it turned a potential 10-0 in favor of Miami into a 7-3 Jets' lead. It also completely changed the momentum in the first quarter when it seemed like the Dolphins were completely dominating the game on both sides of the football.
October 3, 2011Jets Go Into Nosedive In Baltimore

150 total yards, 7 first downs, 3 lost fumbles (2 returned for touchdowns), 1 interception returned for a touchdown - these are the stats put up by the Jets' offense last night in Baltimore. The only positive is that it probably cannot get any worse than that, although you never know when it comes to the New York Jets.

posted by: Site Admin | 0 comments | Jets Preseason
The Jets had all of their starters, except for rookie DE Muhammad Wilkerson, sit out tonight's game against the Philadelphia Eagles, as the coaching staff wanted to see their backups give it one last try to make the squad. QB Greg McElroy started the game and was expected to play at least three quarters but got sidelined with a thumb injury, which appeared to be rather serious. He will have an MRI tomorrow. While in the game, McElroy was just 3 of 6 for 29 yards.
August 17, 2011Jets To Sign Buffalo's Bust Aaron Maybin
posted by: Site Admin | 0 comments | Jets Free Agent Signings
The New York Jets are reportedly expected to sign LB Aaron Maybin, a former #11 overall draft pick by the Buffalo Bills who failed to record a single sack in his two seasons in the NFL. Maybin was cut Monday after two awful seasons that made him one of the biggest draft busts in recent years. Former Jets LB Vernon Gholston, of course, is an even bigger bust, as he was drafted at #6 overall and did not record a sack in 3 seasons in the NFL.
