With the Giants winning Thursday over the Washingtons, the Jets are the only local game in town and what a game. The reeling Philadelphia Sheagals venture north to the Meadowlands to see which city the Pope blessed better.
Genius Chip Kelly has turned the Eagles into a cornucopia of fail. His movement based offense is being run by the only player in NFL history whom Bernie Kosar could beat in a footrace. He shipped away all his best playmakers for reasons open to debate but in general turned a team from one getting better and maybe even getting ready to contend, into the East Philadelphia Browns. Oh, wait, the Browns have a win. The Sam Bradford Experience is a baaaaad trip kids. Twice as many INT's as TD's after two games is no way to play QB....for long. Darren Sproles is always a danger. He can simply go off and make plays that suck the life out of a defense.
If the Jets weren't so banged up we'd say this could prove relatively easy. No Revis is certainly not a reason for hope (he's listed as questionable on ESPN as of press time) as well as other injured Jets and in the NFL that is a great equalizer. Look up game manager in the dictionary and you'll see a picture of Ryan Fitzpatrick. Thus far that has worked well. Fitzpatrick's best friend, running back Chris Ivory is a game time decision. If he can't go suddenly a nickel back or safety shifts over to double Brandon Marshall. Fitzpatrick's task does become that much tougher.
Johnny thinks the Jets can still handle the Eagles today but it won't be pretty. Like the fans in the stands it'll be a fistfight. The Magic 8 Ball sees a low scoring game.
Jets 20
Eagles 16
