The stunning comeback against the Browns, 31-30, led to the Gang Green's meteoric rise in the NFL power rankings. Robert Saleh's team is now ranked #25 on average, after being dead last one week ago. This is the higher than what the Jets' position was at any point last season. Pro Football Talk went as…

Robert Saleh's Jets finished 29th in last season's power rankings. Naturally, pretty much all pundits expected them to improve, as they gave the Jets a higher average ranking before the start of the 2022 season. Unfortunately, their higher expectations lasted about as long as Mekhi Becton's season. Following a rather terrible performance against the Ravens…

Denzel Mims has disclosed the reasons behind his unhappiness with the New York Jets after making it on the team's 53-man roster. The wide receiver, who was drafted out of the second round in 2020, has requested a trade as he wants to be a starter and feels like he's shown enough to deserve the…

The New York Jets defeated the Philadelphia Eagles, 24-21, in the 2022 preseason opener. The win, however, was overshadowed by QB Zach Wilson's first quarter knee injury. As the Jets were trailing 14-0, it looked like Wilson finally got the offense going only to go down on a totally unnecessary scramble. It was the same…

It's obviously a pretty instructive thing when a four-win season is considered to be a mark of healthy progress for a ball club, but the Jets were so bad in 2021 that anything would have been seen as a step up. Robert Saleh's first season as a head coach did mark a definite improvement, and…

The New York Jets have reportedly agreed to sign DT Solomon Thomas, a former #3 overall draft pick of the San Francisco 49ers in 2017, to a 1-year deal. Thomas, 26, should be familiar with Robert Saleh's defensive system, as Saleh was 49ers defensive coordinator when they drafted him. He had a rather disappointing 4-year…

The New York Jets addressed another need via free agency, as they agreed to a 3-year contract with CB D.J. Reed. The deal is reportedly for $33M. Reed, 25, was originally drafted in the 5th round by San Francisco where he spent the first two seasons of his career before being claimed off waivers by…

The 2021 season is over for the Jets. The Gang Green ended up pretty much where they have been all year long - #29 in the final edition of the NFL power rankings. Unfortunately, ESPN and the Sporting News did not produce final edition of their power rankings, so we had to go with just…

The Jets are back to their consensus #29 position in the NFL power rankings after coming within 2 yards from upsetting defending Super Bowl champions last weekend. Zach Wilson arguably had his best game as a pro, completing 19 of 33 passes for 234 yards, 1 TD. Yahoo Sports ranked Robert Saleh's team as high…

Well, there's finally a consensus among all pundits - the New York Jets are #29 best team in the NFL, which means their position remained practically unchanged despite a lopsided 33-18 loss against the Eagles. Also, it looks like QB Zach Wilson has finally showed some improvement and threw two touchdown passes against Philadelphia, as…
