So the Jets lost yesterday.
When it appeared they were dominating the Colts in the first half, Peyton Manning was actually scanning and processing and belying his visage for like the millionth straight game. Manning is like the world’s goofiest-looking velociraptor, except his talons are perfect passes that tear through whatever soft spot is left undefended, ripping secondaries to shreds.
And so whatever. Manning is awesome. Late in the first half, he had the Jets’ defense back on its heels and by the second half, the secondary was clearly a bit overwhelmed. After Shonn Greene got hurt, the Jets’ offense couldn’t pick up first downs and eat game clock, so they fell behind quickly with no real hope of regaining the lead.
So it goes. The Jets lost to a better team.
The good news is that the Jets have a whole lot to look forward to, it seems, thanks to a brash and promising head coach and a whole bunch of excellent young homegrown players upon which to build.
That’s refreshing, and I imagine a big reason why very few of the Jets fans I’ve spoken to are broken up about the loss yesterday. Everyone’s just excited for next season, which is a strange, strange sensation for Jets fans.
Anyway, here’s me and Bassett discussing the game:

As a non Jets fan I can say I saw the shift when the Jets got the fumble and had a chance to get aggressive and put another TD up and the play calling got really conservative with three straight runs and ended up with a FG and the Colts got the ball and drove down and scored in four plays. I felt the Jets left the psychological door open and the Colts barged through.
Sam with just kneeling on the ball to end the first half instead of trying to drive the ball.
I felt the Jets at that point decided to not take any more chances and let their defense win it.
“Ok on the count of three name your favorite dinosaur 1. 2. 3. Velociraptor! Did you just become my best friend? Yup.”
“Your not going to not get Randy Jackson’s autograph”
I’m just going to pray every freaking day that this isn’t yet another horrible cosmic joke and turns out to be Mets 06 redux.
