Sorry Rex

With 6 days remaining until Jets v. Patriots III it was said that Rex Ryan and other players are upset that the Patriots, in the words of safety Dwight Lowery, "ran the score up on us" during the 45-3 beat down earlier this season.

Just another example of New York Jets' Stupidity.

1.  This November, prior to a game against the Detroit Lions, Rex Ryan boldly announce the Jets as "the best defense in the National Football League".   OK Rex. If you want to pound your chest and proclaim yourself the greatest you better be ready for every one's best shot.  Your "best defense" got thumped for 45 points.  Rex has a choice.  Shut up about being the best or shut up about complaining when you get your butt whooped.  Either way...shut up, Rex.

2. An attitude that Bill Bellichick has always held is that it's not his job to stop his team from scoring.  That is the job of his opponent. The New York Jets pay players millions of dollars to play defense.  It's not Tom Brady's job to make sure they do well.  It's not Bellichick's job to be sure the game stays close.  If Rexy and the Jets don't want 45 points slapped on their over-inflated egos again this Sunday, strap your helmet on and make a stop.  You have every right to be embarrassed by the loss, but you have no right to blame it on the Pats.

3. Hypocrisy at it's finest.  Aww, the poor little Jets didn't like being beaten down like a JV squad getting it's first chance against the big boys.  Boo-hoo.
Let's rewind to 2009 shall we.
Week 7.  Jets v. Oakland  Jets pound the pathetic Raiders 38-0.  They scored on a 35 yards TD pass in the 3rd then another rushing TD in the 4th.  Come on Rex.  Why didn't you take a knee and keep it closer.
Week 17.  Going into the playoffs the Jets faced the Bengals and laid out a 37-0 beat down. Rex, don't you know that after 24-0 you need to give up.

Rex and The Jets would say about the 37-0 Bengals game that they knew they would be facing the Bengals again in the playoffs so they wanted to send a message.  Well big boy.  45-3.  There is your message.
