The playoffs are a reality for the 2009 New York Jets. Yes, the PLAYOFFS! Forget the retiring and un-retiring of Brett Favre, forget the rookie quarterback and head coach, and yes, doubly forget about Mr Diva himself Tom Brady being 100% healthy. No matter what kind of odds Vegas stacked against them they are in.
Riddle me this bloggers, currently the Jets at 10-7 are moving on to face the equally hot San Diego Chargers in the 2009 Divisional round of the playoffs, while their AFC east rivals (the Patriots) were just knocked out after a thrashing on their home field by the 6th seed wild card Ravens.
This leads to the question are the Jets better off without Brett Favre? Defensive changes, Rex Ryan upgrade, Braylon Edwards, and other things aside, What do you think?
… A few numbers for you

Wow, what can I say. It was a great and close game this weekend. 17-14 just a kick and the Chargers could have won. I watched the game at Rocky Sullivan’s in Red Hook Brooklyn, what a great crowd. All Jets fans and the few that weren’t were routing for the Jets. And there big screen was great for the game, the players were the size of me. I’ll certainly be there this Sunday for the game, 34 Van Dyke St. red Hook Brooklyn, NYC!!!!! Yes great time, and George the bartender was a super Jets fan.
