They're playing REALLY hard for Antonio Pierce. He's a energetic motivator, and, of course, he's not Josh McDaniels.
You always want to play the newly coached team after the new coaches first game when they get all the energy out of their system

I still leave Sunday more worried about playing the Jets than the Raiders. The Jets defense is a concern. Next week I think Miami should have little trouble putting up 20+ points vs the Raiders and I think their offense would be hard pressed to keep pace.
I don’t see it but we see! Steelers ain’t that good regardless of their record!
The Jets defense have the type of defense that will give the Dolphins offense all sorts of trouble!

I think, even if the Jets defense gives MIami some trouble the Dolphins can score a couple of tds and that's enough to to put pressure on the Jets offense. As long as there are no defensive or special teams tds allowed, I think Miami beats the Jets too. But I think it will be more of a challange than the Raiders will be. Of the next 5 opponents the Commanders might be the most well rounded team.

It's less about being worried about beating the Jets and more worrying about the shame of being the team that finally gives up a TD to their offense...
Jets Ineptitude is historic:
- 36 Straight Possessions without a TD
- 11 straight quarters without a TD
- 49 Possessions that start on their side of the field without a TD
- The Jets have 23 field goals and just 10 touchdowns through 9 games, the largest FG-to-TD ratio in NFL history.
- Josh Dobbs has many TDs with the Vikings as Zach Wilson has with the Jets this season

Good point on the Commanders. Howell is the real deal and they seem to be in every game even when they lose. They gave the Eagles fits in both those games this year.
Nice way to start the day. FTJ.
Tonight it's time for "Broncos Country, Let's Ride!" - except actually do it.

The Jets play Miami tough they play all their AFCE opponents like it is their personal SB I expect them to score and there is no shame in someone getting free to score. Will the Dolphins implode? I highly doubt it,
That said the Jets didn’t play Tua last year they got a play from Teddy and a full helping of Skylar.
For being such a great team with just a QB away they sure lose a lot -
I can’t recall the last time everything came up aces like this. Denver over Buffalo would be ridiculously good
