Chris Baker ain’t missing much but the beautiful weather. Other than that, our stay in Cincinnati (or “almost Cincinnati,” since we are staying in Covington, Kentucky, just across the river) has been rather uneventful and uninspiring.
Baker, the Jets starting tight end, is one of the Jets inactives. So too is starting cornerback (according to the depth chart anyway) Andre Dyson. Dyson has missed a tackle in each of the last two games, both going for TDs. The rest of the inactives are Tuiasosopo (3rd QB), Clowney, Montgomery, Devito, Bender, and Pociask.
Anthony Schlegel is starting for the Bengals. I’ll just let that sit with you, dear reader, for a moment.
ESPN is reporting that Chad Pennington is “on a short leash.” Wow, what a surprise! I can’t believe it. I read in online, so it must be true.
Jets, by the way, are wearing green bottoms and white tops.

The size of Chad's leash makes good copy/ or perhaps him getting the hook. But let's look past all the FLUFF. The offensine & defensive lines cannot step it up anothe notch when it's showtime. They do not have that other gear needed to win games! It might be talent, it might to coaching but for sure it's missing.
Neither Kendall nor Chad is the reason teams average 150 yrds/ game rushing against Jets. The only team the Jets held to less than 100 yards is the lost to the Bills.
You score 40 points in 2 games and have one penalty and no turnovers on offense in 2 games and still go 0-2 the QB and LG is NOT the problem. The clueless blaming Chad should find another sport because you don't know jack about football ....
