so you're saying there's a chance. yeah!

 

[unckeyherb]

Asante interception at the goal line!

 

[solorca]

Just started watching the game and saw Dion Lewis in the game on first down. Something didn't happen to McCoy, did he?

Edit: Nevermind, he's in.

 

[Not Sure]

It's so hard to listen to Marv Albert. It always sounds like he is choking on something.

 

[unckeyherb]

Celek TD!!!! Great catch

 

[cubbie5150]

Jets are trailing in the 1st quarter? Greene won't see the field much now

Jim Carrey = The EaglesLauren Holly = The Playoffs

so you're saying there's a chance. yeah!

With the Giants losing today, now the Eagles win today and next week and they are guaranteed to be alive in week 17, right?(I know it's sad that it's come to this, but I need something to cling to . . .)

 

[solorca]

Woohoo! Tight end has been my weak spot all season, so it's great to get a TD from Celek!

I believe they needs Jets to beat Giants next week, and Giants to beat Dallas in Week 17...if DAL, PHI, and NYG finish 8-8, Eagles are in.

Right, right, right, my bad. If the Giants beat the Jets, then we're out, because then one of the Giants or Dallas will be guaranteed 9 wins.

It would be nice if the Jets can score.

 

[timschochet]

OMG what a horrible play by Sanchez.

 

[timschochet]

LeSean McCoy gets a TD and ties Steve Van Buren's all time single season franchise record.

 

[faulkfan]

McCoy is the man. I wish I hadn't traded him.

 

[timschochet]

They just pointed out that Van Buren had his 18 touchdowns in a 10 game season. So as great as McCoy's accomplishment in tying him, he really didn't. But 18 touchdowns in 15 games is still pretty great, especially for fantasy.

 

[Kilgore]

Fellas- Can you help me understand what the Jets are doing out there? Is it lacrosse? Field hockey? Tetherball?

'Cause it sure as heck ain't football...

 

[Kilgore]

The Jets will not play in a Super Bowl as long as Sanchez is there. He's a totally overhyped shanker.

 

[RUSF18]

Santonio Holmes should never play another down. What a ####wad.

 

[Raider Nation]

Gotta make sure you get that selfish LOOK AT ME penalty even though you're down by 100!

 

[bweiser]

if the eagles lose this game, does reid get fired in the next 24 hours?

 

[thehornet]

nice vick. is this 500? jesus throw it out of bounds you friggin moron

 

[timschochet]

Sanchez just got rocked. He may be hurt.

 

[scratcher]

Sanchez just got rocked. He may be hurt.

Didnt look that bad, How did he get injured?

Not sure. They were looking at him on the sideline. He's back in though.

 

[timschochet]

LeSean with 102 yards and 3 touchdowns on the day.

VanBuren's record was a wartime season but the totals are still spectacular.10 games 9 starts rushing: 143/832/15 (5.8 YPC)recv: 10/123/2punt ret: 14/154 (11.0 avg)KO ret: 13/373/1 (28.7 avg)His kickoff return was apparently a 98 yarder.http://www.pro-football-reference.com/players/V/VanBSt00.htm

Still, with two games left and that final spot in the playoffs still theirs to steal, we’re about to find out what kind of leaders the Jets have in their locker room. And this was the example set by Capt. Holmes:

First he fumbled on the first Jets’ possession, a ball that was picked up by Eagles defensive end Juqua Parker and returned for a touchdown. Then he let a pass deflect off his hands three minutes later, leading to an interception that four minutes later cost the Jets another seven points.

Holmes, in just one quarter, almost single-handedly dug the Jets a 14-0 hole. So how did he react in the second quarter when he caught a touchdown pass to cut the Eagles’ lead to a mere 18 points?

He stood in the back of the end zone, put his cleat on the football, and waved his arms like an eagle. The yellow flag was out of the referee’s pocket before he was even done flapping.

It’s against the rules to use the football as a prop in celebrations. When asked after the game if he knew this, Holmes made a show of leaning forward to speak directly into the microphone.

“I’m a veteran,” said Holmes, who was wearing a black T-shirt with a sequined Superman logo. “I’ve been in the league for six years. Yes, I did know.”

Well, that’s reassuring.

Just a month ago, remember, Bills receiver Stevie Johnson was hit with a game-changing penalty when he mocked Holmes’ teammate Plaxico Burress by shooting himself in the leg after a touchdown. That burst of stupidity helped spark the Jets on their three-game winning streak.

Did Holmes, who criticized Johnson for that bonehead move, consider just handing the ball to the referee to avoid the inevitable 15-yard penalty on the ensuing kickoff?

“Nope,” he said. “Not at all.”
