Post whatever information about the upcoming matchup here (if you want to)

-Jets are down to Eric Smith and Brodney Poole as James Ihedibego appears to have a high ankle sprain

-Vern Carey left Sunday's game with a knee problem and Lydon Murtha replaced him..and no one noticed..:D

Not so much FF, the Jets will have to sign a street FA safety, and a thread for "Al Harris back at practice" seems a bit too much, so a one stop shopping spot for information made sense to me.

I think Vern C is in a bad way.

Vern has been playing like a wounded puppy for a couple games now. I'm sure he's been hurt for a minute.

Both Eric Smith and Brodney Poole can be exploited in coverage.

The early line is jets -6.

Tanking is like taking a Greyhound bus cross-country. Sure, it may eventually get you where you want to go, but it’s messy and unpleasant and uncomfortable, it stinks, the entire time you’ll be wishing you weren’t there, and not everybody along for the ride is going to make it to the end. - Quote stolen from Deadspin

That is the crazy thing about the 2010 dolphins, on the road ATS we are something like 4-2 or 5-1.

Yep, though Poole can make plays.

With as heavily as the Jets blitz this can only be seen as a positive they will have to move a Cb to S and sign a Street Fa Cb imho.

Jets signed COLES to help WR duties...

they are going to have to focus less on O-side and more on D-side with these latest injuries

"If you laugh, you think, and you cry, that's a full day. That's a heck of a day. You do that seven days a week, you're going to have something special."

#Dolphins are actually traveling to New York very early Friday morning. Still, an interesting twist to the schedule

Interesting, maybe to acclimate them to cold weather?

Coach Rex Ryan revealed that Laveranues Coles will be released this week to make room for a new safety.
Coles was signed with the intention of providing an emotional boost after Jim Leonhard went down with a season-ending injury. That didn't work out so well for the Jets.

Maybe bring back the Warren kid from Michigan>?

They're saying it's going to snow or rain here this weekend, but as we all know that can change as late as Saturday night and it's way too early to tell. I would like a snow game though.

Free agent S Keith Fitzhugh turned down an offer to join the Jets this week.
Fitzhugh was the Jets' first choice for depth at safety because he was with the team through training camp and preseason action. He's now secure as a conductor with Norfolk Southern railroad, though, and he doesn't want to risk his future for a 2-3 week stint with the Jets.

:chuckle:

Coach Rex Ryan is inclined to stick with Nick Folk this week after the kicker missed a long field goal Monday night.
Ryan is taking the blame for Folk's 53-yarder that never came close to the uprights. "Maybe that's something I need to look at, is maybe not attempt that kind of kick, his first kick of the day," Ryan said. Folk isn't a fantasy option until he proves far more reliable.

Hmm, let's see if my theory holds..going bargain basement for a kicker is a mistake on a team that plans to contend.

Prediction: ugly, low-scoring game.

Tempted to pick the Dolphins, looking at it objectively, but they sucked worse this week. So the Jets will win. *knocks on wood*

On what planet is losing 13-10 on a fluke "worse" than getting raped on national TV 45-3?

I'm not so sure about that. You usually have to watch college football to see the kind of domination you saw last night in every phase of the game.

Losing to Jake Delhomme? I rest my case. Maybe I was delusional with my last comment, but that was a pathetic display by Miami on Sunday. As was last night with the Jets.

Had Chancey Stuckey not had a brain fart, the Jets would have lost to Cleveland as well.

Sorry...it is not close....a fluke loss 13-10 after being terrible is nowhere near....Big game beatdown at 45-3.

45-3.

45-3.

So what you're saying is that Murtha is actually pretty solid. If that's the case, rest Carey for a week and put him in at LG, see if we can establish some push.

Bring this man back into the fold if you want some real leadership on this team.

Dec 7, 2010, 05:05 PM

Christ, only a Jets fan can justify thinking that the Dolphins losing by 3 is somehow worse than lose by 6 touchdowns.

According to a source, Harris’ 13th NFL season ended Tuesday when the Pompano Beach native was placed on injured reserve on his 36th birthday.

The veteran cornerback, signed as a free agent on Nov. 10 after the Packers released him off their Physically Unable to Perform list, played in three games for the Dolphins before hitting the injury report with what was officially termed a hamstring injury. Harris, the Dolphins’ oldest player, was inactive for Sunday’s home loss to the Browns.

Well suspected that as well, good thing Nolan Carroll did a good job as the boundary corner.
