I'll say this. The Jets did not look too good against the Bengals. Yeah, they won, but the Bengals played horribly.
But it doesn't matter. Not yet. All that matters is winning right now. If we get to week 12 and the Jets are still eeking out close wins against bad teams, its time to worry. But for now, they just need to get enough wins to go to the post season and a win is a win is a win. Just ask the Giants circa midseason 2007.

They didn't play consistently wel om either side of the ball over the course of the game. There were times when they were running effectively and then nothing. On D there were times when they looked great but then looked clueless. Im gonna take the win and hope the team keeps improving.

How come the Jets always wear those ugly-ass uniforms?

Demoralizing loss. The pass game was atrocious. I liked what i saw from the run game, it got a number of solid gains. Washington's TD run was nice, good to see him pound it in there. But boy was that pass offense bad. We didn't get very good pressure on the QB, and a weak WR core had its first solid game against our DBs. Overall this game was just bad all-around. I thought we might pull out the ugly win, but it didn't happen. Needed a game-changing play from someone. The only one in the game really was the fumbled punt by Washington. Just wasn't good..

Frarve was pitiful. He dinked and dunked worse than Pennington.

Staying on the field for any amount of time would be nice. He's a good athlete but its hard to know how much his skills have developed considering he hasn't been on the field too much.

I seriously want to know what kind of contract offer he is going to get at the end of the year. I really can't tell with this guy at all. He really looked bad as CB earlier in his career and most of the media in NY were saying he would just have to serve as a return man (made pro bowl as one).
In contract year, I seriously can't think of any contributions he has this year. I always wonder what could have been with him, not that I am saying he still can't have a great career, I just don't see him doing anything with the Jets.

They are really thin at corner so he probably will be given every opportunity to succeed at corner.

I have no thoughts, as he's never around to evaluate. He appears to be a bandaid. I had high hopes for him coming out. Solidly built athlete with good speed? Sounds good. But he's always injured, so his contributions have been minimal. I like him as a returner, but he is far from proven as a CB. I'd like to see what he has to offer, who knows if we'll get the chance though. I wouldn't want to offer a very big contract given how little he actually sees the field, it would be paying someone to sit on IR.

You seriously have to wonder how much of his talent as a return man came from the Jets ST coaching, considering Leon Washington did the same thing next year when Miller went down. Or maybe they are just both really good....

Ya, but i'm not willing to pull the Devin Hester and pay a guy based on 'hope' that he can play another position effectively. Can't really compare the two players, since Hester is superior, and Miller is a bandaid, but you get the point.

Miller isn't going to be able to get a big contract from anyone. I see no reason why the jets don't try to keep him around for a reasonable price to see if he can live up to his athletic potential.

I didn't think you did. I meant big for miller. I don't think many teams will take a chance on a good return man from a few years ago with many injuries and no history actually playing corner. Basically, I can't see another team really giving him much money so the Jets shouldn't let him go just out of spite because he hasn't hit his potential. However, teams have done dumb crap in the past, so, who knows?

I'm going to wait and see what he does the rest of the season before i throw anything at him. As far as i'm concerned, he's done nothing to warrant an offer.....i like him, but he hasn't. Washington fills the void nicely and is a great team guy, why not just keep his involvement up? I like Miller and think he can contribute, but that is all off of athletic ability really, since he hasn't done anything to this point for us. Not good when the thing i remember about a guy is a few bad penalties.....

He obviously hasn't earned anything with his play because he hasn't played. But he is still an intriguing player with regards to his athleticism. If he can play in a limited role for a portion of the season, he may be able to prove that he he still has some talent that the team can develop. Even if he doesn't see the field for any substantial amount of time, I still say we give him a shot because as I mentioned earlier, there is no way he will command any substantial money or years and he has to be familiar with our defense more than a rookie. Why not take a risk on the guy and see if we can cash in on his prodigious athleticism. I mean after all, he has ideal size, is a good hitter, is really fast, and is still young. A 24 year old with this physical ability is not someone you give up on.
Obviously this is all contingent on another team not offering him stupid money.
