inability to "finish' - a trait too common to ny teams lately.
either an emotional or a physical letdown at the end

here is what Kris, a member of NYsportSpace Myspace page said about this:

Here are the reasons why the Jets suck right now:

1) Did not land a premiere free agent defensive player like Adalius Thomas or a good run stuffer.

2) Defensive backs giving up too much yardage.

3) Offensive line is horrible, trading Pete Kendall was a mistake.

4) Thomas Jones IS the right guy for this team...but at the wrong time...(see #3).

5) No real explosive players on offense.

6) Pennington is starting to slide.

7) Way harder schedule.

8) Teams have "caught-on" to the Jets way of playing.

9) D'Brickashaw is quicky becoming D'Bustashaw.

10) Hardly any sacks, interceptions, or turnovers.

Yeah, all of the above PLUS:

1) Justin McCareins can't catch (um, thanks for noticing, btw)

2) Mike Tanenbaum thought it was more important to lowball Pete Kendall than to have a really decent offensive line.

3) Jericho Cotchery had a bit of a letdown...

4) Good ol' Laveranues has been hurt most of the season

5) Defensive personnel didn't fit 3-4
OR
WOULD NOT fit the 3-4
BUT
This guy from Michigan is an ANIMAL !!!

6) The Jets are tired of hearing about PROCESS and being continually QUIZZED (I know I would be).

7) Ahh, that's enough. I have big hopes for next year...(a left guard would be nice).

I don't understand it either. I had the Jets making the playoffs. They have a great young offensive line with Mangold and D-Brik and the addition of Thomas Jones should have really made them a threat with the run. I am sure alot of the finger pointing has been directed towards Noodle arm Pennington but the guy is in the top 5 in the AFC in completion %. sadly enough, things don't look to get better for the Jets as their schedule is pretty brutal. 5-11 is looking like a best case scenario

----Except for the Pittsburgh Steelers, very upsetting for me :(

10) Hardly any sacks, interceptions, or turnovers.

----Once again, yesterday...7 sacks? What happened, we were supposed to win :(
