What do you not like about their organization? Just wondering. I don't like or dislike them. They have always been so mediocre that they've never been on my radar.
Until they hired Rex Ryan...

Well I do think our defense needs something like what he brings so hopefully his brother somewhat like him here.

I don't think they are any less classy than the Patriots, or the Steelers. What's worse? Calling someone an asshole or having your QB arrested multiple times for sexual harrassment/assault? What's worse? A loud coach, who is personable and loyal, or a CEO type who will cut you or trade you because you disagree with him? Someone who refuses to answer questions and won't dress like he's supposed to? And I don't think the Steelers or Patriots are wrong for doing it the way they do, either. Its a business. its all the same. no different standards. maybe you missed my cheesehead bangwagon claiming i simply made the observation that big ben would rip the jets a new one. i dont want the steelers to win anything for my own personal reasons.

hahaha, you have to take the good with the bad. That stuff doesn't bother me. Its actually kind of refreshing sometimes. Coaches are in a no win situation there. The ones that do that stuff need to "hide their emotions" and "not be affected by any one thing". The ones who don't are the ones who "need to show a little enthusiasm and some fire" I concur with this statement and to add on it's all about winning. Rex Ryan looks like a genius right now and so you have people thinking that's the type of coach you need. "Yeah man Wade was just a push over, we need us some Rex Ryan types man YEAH!" But then again a couple years ago Bill Belicheck? was the man with his calm demeanor. It's all about winning in the NFL and stabbing people, not only in the back, but in the face and is something owners and GM's are willing to deal with.

I just get tired of the ridiculous treatment they get because they are a big market team. I guess that's not the teams fault, but it just bugs me. They have been one of the worst run NFL teams over the last few decades, but now they have two decent seasons and that's all anyone wants to talk about. Like I said, I understand it, but that doesn't mean I have to like it.

I think most people around the country still don't take the Rangers very seriously.

I see the Pack scoring more than 13 though. If the Jets can get 19 I feel the pack can do some damage. Let's not forget that along with their great offense the have a solid defense too.

Not that any of this matters, but they only scored 14 on the Bears.
With two weeks to prepare I think both D's will be on lock down.
