Why the Jets will not be as bad as people are saying

12
Vote

by user MetsJetsDevils

People like to evaluate teams in a vacuum. The fact of that matter is that when making predictions, you have to look at the teams on the schedule. Thus, even though the Jets may not be the most talented team in the world, I look at their roster and see a team whose floor is 6 wins and whose ceiling is 10 wins.


Ceiling

  1. Titans - W
  2. Patriots - W (at home)
  3. Buffalo - L
  4. Indy - L
  5. Jax - L
  6. Dolphins - L
  7. Lions - W
  8. Browns - W
  9. BYE
  10. Patriots - L
  11. Bears - L
  12. Texans - W
  13. GB - W
  14. Buffalo - W
  15. Vikings - W
  16. Miami - W
  17. Raiders - W


Floor

  1. Titans - W
  2. Patriots - L (at home)
  3. Buffalo - L
  4. Indy - L
  5. Jax - L
  6. Dolphins - L
  7. Lions - W
  8. Browns - W
  9. BYE
  10. Patriots - L
  11. Bears - L
  12. Texans - W
  13. GB - W
  14. Buffalo - W
  15. Vikings - L
  16. Miami - L
  17. Raiders - L

With the celing path, they might go most of the way to the Super Bowl - carrying a 6-game winning streak into the playoffs.

The "floor" seems more like "realistic outcome."

You complain about evaluating teams in a vacuum, but you seem to be doing the same thing with the Browns. At the very least your "floor" should have a loss to Cleveland.

Take that W over the Browns and put it on Oakland, that still seems about right for a "realistic outcome" to me.

I'd set percentages of the Jets winning each game, and then expand the percentages to create a ceiling and floor. Like Jets@Pats, you'd give a baseline of 25%, a ceiling of 50%, and a floor of 0%. Repeat for all 16 games, and you'll get your win-loss record.

I agre I agree I agree! Pennington will prove the naysayers wrong and uphold his 90.0 career QB rating. Bryan Thomas will be among the sack leaders, Vilma will lead the league in tackles, and the Jets will go 8-8 and shock everyone. D'Brickashaw goes to Pro Bowl in rookie year. Go Jets!

I think Chad Pennington will surprise some people. If he an be healthy, I've always thought he was a good QB. They still finish 3rd in that division.

I say they will have a miami esque season, where they win 4-5 games in the season, and all are to end the year. They should hope to get the first pick and be able to Draft Brady Quinn
