Jets add Pair of Free Agent Defenders to Front Seven; Donahue to IR

Lawrence Thomas Officially Makes Switch to Fullback

When Jets defensive lineman Lawrence Thomas lined up at fullback early in the teams match up with the Dolphins two weeks ago, nobody knew if it was a gimmick, a wild experiment, or a tryout. Whatever you want to call it, the Jets obviously liked what they saw as Thomas got more looks at fullback… Read more

JetNation Tuesday Tidbits; Mo Wilk’s Declining Production, Vastly Improved Secondary

A few notes, thoughts and links to previous articles on Gang Green to pass along: Shared this stat in discussing outstanding performances here against the Jaguars but it’s worth repeating.  After giving up 7 passing touchdowns of 40 yards or more last season, the longest passing TD the Jets have allowed this season was the… Read more

Mac’s “Scraps” Continue to Impress

When you’re the general manager of a team universally viewed as the worst in the NFL, last-second trades that involve “throw in” or “fringe” players will garner more laughs than praise. Putting in waiver claims for players let go by franchises who are run by far more accomplished football people shouldn’t register a blip on… Read more

For Second Week in row, Jets Youngsters Shine

Coming off the heels of a 20-6 victory against the Miami Dolphins in a game that some felt could end up being their only win of the season, the Jets came out and looked fantastic on defense once again, while their suddenly explosive offense did enough to get them a 23-20 win in overtime.
