that's fair. i wasn't calling you out specifically. i've seen a number of post about how this year is the year everything is going to fall apart, we're totally out matched, etc. this is still a very good team. i get the bengals game left a bad taste in everyone's mouth, but that was last season. time to start over.
for this game, it's going to be an over reaction either way. if the bills win, it doesn't mean the jets will be the same team at the end of the season after playing games together and gelling. if the jets win, we'll have to hear the noise, but maybe this was their super bowl, and things with an old qb break down as the season goes on. the first game doesn't move the meter much for me, but the win would sure be more pleasant. you saw this place after a bad preseason game. on the inverse, the board was as quiet it could be after a solid showing last week. it's how this place rolls.
for the jets...they're not without their warts either. as mentioned, maybe it takes time for them to get their act straight, and maybe the bills in the first matchup is too much too early. also, i thought i heard their starting LT is a 38 year old with an injury history.
the only way i'll feel defeated after the first game is if they come out completely unprepared. i'd be surprised if that happens, but that to me would be strictly on coaching.
