VIP Odds
The Jets are 75:1 to win
the Super Bowl, 50:1 to win the AFC Championship,
and 15:1 to win the AFC East. Their Over / Under
win total is 6.5.
Schedule
New York’s 2006 opponents
had a record of 119-137 in 2005. That is the
easiest in the AFC. They also get their bye-week
after Week 8, which is perfect to break up the
season.
In the first half
of the year, The Jets get New England, Indianapolis
and Miami all at home. However, if they lose
all three of those games as expected, then they
will be lucky to be 2-6 at the midway point.
The second half has the tougher road games,
but some winnable home games like Houston, Buffalo
and Oakland.
Sports Edge Analysis
The Jets have relied on
quarterback Chad Pennington’s balky shoulder
for much of their success. The problem is that
he hasn’t been healthy for the last three
years and he is still not 100% now.
Unfortunately, the other
quarterback options of Patrick Ramsey and rookie
Kellen Clemens do not inspire much confidence
for 2006.
The wide receiver tandem
of Laveranues Coles and Justin McCareins are
good but not great, and they need a quarterback
with a strong arm to maximize their abilities.
Even when Pennington is healthy, his arm is
below average.
The running game is looking
at a declining Curtis Martin and an offensive
line that will start two rookies in tackle D’Brickashaw
Ferguson and center Nick Mangold. That will
put even more pressure on whoever is playing
quarterback.
The Jets’ defense
was 5th in the AFC in yards allowed last year,
but 12th in points allowed. The team traded
defensive end, John Abraham to Atlanta for a
first round pick, and now New York will switch
over to the 3-4 defense without their premier
pass rusher.
One player who should do
well in the new system is Dewayne Robertson
as he is a good fit at the nose tackle position.
Middle linebacker, Jonathan Vilma may struggle
however, as he will be forced to take on more
blockers and have less room to run fee.
The secondary lost
cornerback Ty Law who had a bunch of interceptions,
but also a lot of penalties. Andre Dyson and
Ray Mickens are two candidates to fill his job
as well as last year’s second round pick,
Justin Miller.
Prediction
The Jets felt that Coach
Eric Mangini was the best candidate to replace
Herm Edwards for two reasons. One is that he
is a young, bright defensive mind. Two, he knows
the ins and outs of Bill Belichick and the New
England Patriots juggernaut.
Mangini will install the
same base 3-4 defense that the Patriots employ.
That will take time to adjust to as well as
find the right players to fit into the system.
The 35 year-old Mangini also has to prove that
he has the personality to be a successful head
coach in the NFL.
This is going to be a tough
year overall for New York, as both the offense
and defense are below average units. A 5-11
record is the most likely scenario.
