Jets' Damon Harrison says Todd Bowles will let him rush the passer more than Rex Ryan did
All Stories |

Can the Jets make the playoffs in head coach Todd Bowles' first season (and his first season as a head coach, period)?

Even though training camp hasn't even begun — players report on July 29 — predictions are already rolling out about how 2015 might unfold for the Jets.

PLUS: Jets' Damon Harrison 'devastated' by Sheldon Richardson suspension, expects line to be fine

And the prognostications published by WalterFootball.com aren't exactly positive for Bowles' team, for what that is worth. (Nothing, really, since they're just predictions.)

The website picks the Jets to finish last in the AFC East, with a 5-11 record (one win better than last year). Here's a longer explanation:

The Jets overachieved last year, winning four games when they were projected to have just two victories. They had one of the least-talented rosters in recent memory, but Rex Ryan was able to get the most out of his team. Ryan is now gone, so that will no longer happen, but New York's roster is at least better right now. Still, the Jets are the only team in the AFC East that doesn't have a chance to win the division this year.
Not a lot of confidence there in Bowles, eh? Considering Bowles has never been a head coach before, it's really impossible to say how he would handle the ever-important task of getting the most out of his team.

Look, with the Patriots still going strong, it is reasonable to say the Jets probably won't win the AFC East — and that they're hoping for a wildcard spot in the playoffs. But 5-11 is a very pessimistic projection for their season.

What do you think, gang? Do the Jets really have no chance to win the AFC East? Are they looking at a 5-11 season? Or something better than that? Or worse?

Leave your thoughts down there in the comments.

I wonder if perhaps Woody had a thing with Walter's wife or something.

I can't ever remember the site having a good thing to say about the Jets

I agree. While certainly entitled to their opinions, Walter has been way over the top in their criticism of the Jets. That site no longer has any credibility in my mind, especially when it comes to their views on the Jets.

Quite possibly the most idiotic uniformed drivel I have ever read. NO ONE watching the Jets could actually think anything other than the blowhard got the least possible out of the roster last year. Wow.

Maybe for the rest of the league but again IMO their Jets drafts are clueless.

I'll agree with that. Particularly with their reviews of drafts. Think he actually bashed the selection of Williams

Walterfootball NEVER has anything even neutral to say about the Jets. It might be worse than Florio and the PFT crowd.

They are a good prospect watch site. I follow their draft build ups years in advance. Its cool how they project college players years and years in advance. I often find myself saying, "Oh yeah, that 5 star prospect did go to...UConn...and you see his freshman year he threw for 3,000 23 and 10 and projects top 10 3 years from now. Then you pay attention to his sophmore year when they play Miami and you would have never watched that game till you caught the kid's name on Walter Football. It's a cool site to track college players, IMO.

I agree. I go there quite frequently during the NCAA season, and after the Super Bowl.

Just don't put a lot in their NFL team projections. I also suspect they are fans of another in the division. Their hatred for the Jets gets to the point of being funny at times.

I would just like to mention that Bowles had been a HC before. I wouldn't say it has much effect but its something. I think his official record is 1-2.

5-11 would be a huge disappointment for this season if you ask me. To much talent on this team. This defense should have us in every game just like the first couple years with Rex.

But the first couple years with rex, we had a top 5 oline...we likely have a bottom 10-15 oline this year.

So we're doomed I guess.

we're not nearly as good as the team Rex coached to 2 AFC East Championship games...wait, that's the team he compared us to isn't it.

So, if we're not doomed, are you predicting play-offs?

I'm not predicting anything on July 21

Anybody predicting anything on July 21 including Walter and all other media and interwebz "experts and gurus" is a moron IMO

Now, if I was faster than a speeding locomotive and able to leap tall buildings in a single bound, then predicting results 9 days before the first training camp practice would be a snap[emoji4] [emoji4] [emoji4] [emoji4] [emoji2] [emoji2] [emoji1]
