INDIVIDUAL SERIES HIGHLIGHTS
QB MARK SANCHEZ
TE DUSTIN KELLER
In just his second-career start, Sanchez helped the Jets snap a string of eight straight home losses to the Patriots. In the game, Sanchez completed 14-of-22 passes (63.6%) for 163 yards, one touchdown, no interceptions and a passer rating of 101.1.
Drafted in 2008, Keller has seen four Jets-Patriots contests. His best performance in the rivalry came on a Thursday night in Foxboro, when he pulled in eight passes for 87 yards, highlighted by a 16-yard reception with the Jets facing a third-and-15, helping to keep the game-winning drive alive. Those eight receptions are also the most of any current Jet in a game against New England.
RB LaDAINIAN TOMLINSON In seven contests against New England, Tomlinson has rushed for 670 yards and seven scores on 139 carries, adding another 191 yards on 20 receptions. His best game against the Pats came on September 29, 2002 when he gained 217 yards and two touchdowns on 27 carries. Those 217 yards are the most yards allowed by the Patriots since they surrendered 219 yards on the ground to OJ Simpson (12/09/73) and are the most allowed in the Bill Belichick era. Tomlinson has gained over 100 yard rushing three times against New England, once in the postseason (1/14/07) and his seven rushing touchdowns represent the most rushing touchdowns any active player has scored against the Patriots.
FB TONY RICHARDSON
CB DARRELLE REVIS Revis, who always draws the primary opposing receiver for the Jets, has matched up against Moss in man coverage since he entered the league. For the past two seasons, Revis has held Moss to under 35 yards receiving in each game and no more than five receptions in a single game. In his career against New England, Revis has amassed 27 tackles, two interceptions and six passes defended.
CB ANTONIO CROMARTIE Cromartie, the former San Diego Charger, has matched up against the Patriots four times in his career, twice in the postseason. In those four games, he has two starts, seven tackles and one interception.
On September 22, 2002 Richardson paved the way as teammate Priest Holmes racked up 180 yards rushing and 2 scores on the ground. Those 180 rushing yards represented the third highest single-game total against New England in the Bill Belichick era. For the game, the Chiefs gained 221 yards on the ground, tied for the fourth-highest total against Belichick’s Patriots.
Harris has amassed some impressive tackle numbers against the Patriots. In just four full games of action against them he has posted 39 tackles, 15 of them coming in the 11/22/09 contest.
WR JERRICHO COTCHERY
LB JASON TAYLOR
No Jets offensive player has faced the Patriots more than Cotchery. In 13 games against the division rival, he has collected 46 receptions for 745 yards (16.2 avg.) and five touchdowns. He has twice gone over 100 yards receiving, the first time on 9/17/06 when he caught six passes for 121 yards and a touchdown, scoring on a 71-yard pass from Chad Pennington. The second time he achieved the century mark against the Pats came later that season in the playoff contest against New England (1/07/07) when he used a 77-yard touchdown pass as part of his four receptions for 100 yards.
With 25 matchups against the Patriots, Taylor has seen New England more than any other current Jet. In those 25 matchups, Taylor has amassed 12 sacks, three interceptions, four forced fumbles and two fumble recoveries. He also scored two touchdowns in the series, one on a 36-yard interception return and the other on a one-yard fumble return.
WR BRAYLON EDWARDS Edwards appeared against the Patriots as a member of the Browns and then as a member of the Jets for the second Jets-Pats contest last season. As a member of the Browns, Edwards hauled in six catches for 110 yards in the 10/07/07 game. 4
LB DAVID HARRIS
DE SHAUN ELLIS In his 10 seasons with the Jets, Ellis has faced the division rival Patriots 20 times in his career, missing just the final matchup in the 2005 season. He has collected 85 tackles, 12 sacks, two passes defended and three forced fumbles in his career against New England. He has posted two sacks in a game against New England twice, initially in his first game against the Patriots (9/11/00) and then again in his most recent game against the Pats (11/22/09).

JETS NOTES NEW MEADOWLANDS STADIUM In 2010, for the first time in Jets history, the team has a stadium it can call home. From the lighting and LED signage to the massive video boards to the new plaza and tailgating options, the stadium will bleed green on Jets gamedays. Travelling to the game is easier than ever with three times the number of roadways and the New Meadowlands rail stop just outside the MetLife Gate. Once at the stadium, fans have many options for entertainment and tailgating before the game. One element that sets this venue apart is the integration of key partners into the game experience. Each cornerstone – Bud Light, MetLife, Pepsi and Verizon – have more than 20,000 square feet to engage and entertain fans. The 1050 ESPN pregame radio show will be broadcast from the west plaza area. Fans can also enjoy live music, activities for kids and a vast array of food and beverage. The Great Hall, located at the 50-yard line, is the grand front door to the stadium and home to the team’s 10,000 square foot store where fans can find the newest Jets gear. Inside there is more food variety and number of concessions stands all adding up to a new “Home Food Advantage” for fans. The intimate seating bowl, uncompromised sightlines, cuttingedge video boards, LED signage and state-of-the-art sound system enhance the game-watching experience. One of the biggest upgrades in the stadium is the availability of club seats. There are four clubs – Coaches, Great Hall, Gridiron and Touchdown – that offer access to VIP reserved parking, a private club entrance as well as a host of other amenities and benefits.

MIKE TANNENBAUM Starters Acquired through the Draft (8)
Starters Acquired through Trades (3)
DRAFT PICKS: The old adage is that successful NFL teams are built through the draft and while General Manager Mike Tannenbaum subscribes to this theory, he has put his own spin on it. While the Jets have stood pat in the draft to select some key players, they have also been very active on draft day, often moving up to select players they have targeted. PLAYERS ACQUIRED THROUGH DRAFT-DAY TRADES: RB SHONN GREENE Jets Receive: 2009 3RD Round Pick (#65 – Shonn Greene) Lions Receive: 2009 3RD Round Pick (#76) 2009 4TH Round Pick (#115) 2009 7TH Round Pick (#228) QB MARK SANCHEZ Jets Receive: 2009 1ST Round Pick (#5 – Mark Sanchez) Browns Receive: 2009 1ST Round Pick (#17) 2009 2ND Round Pick (#52) DE Kenyon Coleman DS Abram Elam QB Brett Ratliff TE DUSTIN KELLER Jets Receive: 2008 1ST Round Pick (#30 – Dustin Keller) Packers Receive: 2008 2ND Round Pick (#36) 2008 4TH Round Pick (#113) ILB DAVID HARRIS Jets Receive: 2007 2ND Round Pick (#47 – David Harris) 2007 7TH Round Pick (#235) Packers Receive: 2007 2ND Round Pick (#63) 2007 3RD Round Pick (#89) 2007 6TH Round Pick (#191) CB DARRELLE REVIS Jets Receive: 2007 1ST Round Pick (#14 – Darrelle Revis) 2007 6TH Round Pick (#191) Panthers Receive: 2007 1ST Round Pick (#25) 2007 2ND Round Pick (#59) 2007 5TH Round Pick (#164) C NICK MANGOLD Jets Receive: 2006 1ST Round Pick (#29 – Nick Mangold) Broncos Receive: 2006 1ST Round Pick (#15) Falcons Receive: DE John Abraham 2006 3RD Round Pick (#93) 2007 4TH Round Pick (#121) PLAYERS DRAFTED WITH ORIGINAL PICKS: LG MATT SLAUSON Original 2009 Draft Pick (#193 Overall) LT D’BRICKASHAW FERGUSON Original 2006 Draft Pick (#4 Overall)
VETERAN TRADES: Mike Tannenbaum has gained a reputation as a wheeling-and-dealing general manager, but what is not known is the success of his many trades. In addition to the draft-day trades Tannenbaum has made, three veteran starters have joined the Jets through a trade.

Starters Acquired through Free Agency (8) UNRESTRICTED FREE AGENTS (5): Free agency is another key element to constructing a roster and Mike Tannenbaum has not overlooked this avenue to improve the team.

REX RYAN DEFENSE = RYAN Like most sons, Rex Ryan always knew he wanted to be in the family business. For the Ryan’s, the family business is stifling defense. In 1985, his father, Buddy Ryan, led what is widely considered to be the best defense in NFL history. Known simply as the ‘85 Bears, Buddy’s unit allowed 12.6 points a game. For the season, they allowed 20 touchdowns (9 rushing, 10 passing and 1 on a return). Rex has been a part of some of the NFL’s best defenses himself. In 2000, he served as the defensive line coach for a Baltimore Ravens team that allowed an NFL’s best 10.3 points a game. In 16 games, the 2000 Ravens allowed 18 touchdowns (5 rushing, 11 passing and 2 on returns). As a defensive coordinator in 2006, Rex matched his father’s 1985 feat allowing 12.6 points a game with the Ravens. Rex’s 2006 team led the NFL in 11 categories: yards per game (264.1), yards per play (4.51), rushing yard per game (75.9), rushing yards per play (3.31), interception rate (5.5%), sacks per pass attempt (11.79%), first downs per game (14.8), third-down conversions allowed (28.9%), red zone pct. (33.3%) and points allowed a game (12.6). In 2009, Rex returned the family business to the Jets, where his father earned his first NFL job. Rex took a defense that ranked 10th in scoring for the 2008 season to the top of the NFL rankings in seven catergories: yards per game (252.3), yards per play (4.24), passing yards a game (153.7), passing yards per play (4.91), first downs allowed (14.8), thirddown conversions allowed (31.5%) and points allowed (14.8).

COORDINATORS PETTINE PRIOR
SCHOOLED BY SCHOTTY
In 2005, Mike Pettine was promoted from Coaching Assistant/Quality Control to Outside Linebackers Coach in Baltimore, the same season that current Jets Head Coach Rex Ryan was named the Ravens Defensive Coordinator. Together the two oversaw a defense that ranked in the top five in almost every defensive category from 2005 to 2008 when both left for the Jets. Top Five Ranks in Baltimore (2005-08) 1st in First Downs Allowed (999) 2nd in Total Defense (277.8 yards per game) 2nd in Scoring Defense (17.6 point per game allowed) 2nd in Rushing Defense (84.0 yards per game) 2nd in Opponent Third Down Conversion Percentage (33.8%) 2nd in Interceptions and t-2nd in Touchdowns off Interceptions 4th in Turnovers Forced (123) 5th in Passing Defense (193.8 yards per game) t-5th in Sacks (168)
Drew Brees (SD 02-05) Schottenheimer arrived in San Diego for Brees’ second season and quickly became a large part of his development with 2002 marking his first season as a starting quarterback. In four seasons with Schotty, Brees averaged over 3,000 yards a season, completing 62.3% of his passes and compiling an 84.7 passer rating. Chad Pennington (NYJ 06-07) Schottenheimer’s first season with the Jets coincided with the return of Chad Pennington from a seasonending injury the year before. Under Schotty’s direction, Pennington posted a then career-best 3,352 yards passing, completing 64.5% of his passes for an 82.6 passer rating. Pennington also took home Comeback Player of the Year honors as he keyed a Jet return to the postseason. Thomas Jones (NYJ 07-09) Jones, was considered a journeyman for the earlier part of his career, after spending his first seven seasons in the league with three different teams. In that time, he averaged 769.1 yards and 4.9 touchdowns per season. In 2007, he was acquired by the Jets in an offseason trade and instantly became an integral part of Coach Schottenheimer’s offense. In three seasons under Schotty, Jones averaged 1,277.7 yards rushing and 9.3 rushing touchdowns a season and set career-highs in rushing yards and rushing touchdowns last season. Mark Sanchez (NYJ 09- ) Sanchez, the Jets 2009 first-round pick, was chosen to direct Schottenheimer’s offense in his rookie season and responded by setting franchise rookie records for completions and passing yards. His rookie season wasn’t without its low points, but under Schotty’s tutelage, Sanchez helped lead the Jets to two postseason victories, the third rookie quarterback in the AFC to accomplish that feat since 1970.
PERFORMING UNDER PETTINE Adalius Thomas (BLT 05-06) Thomas enjoyed his two best seasons in his only two seasons with Pettine when he notched 9.0 sacks in 2005 and 11.0 sacks in 2006. Calvin Pace (NYJ 09- ) In Pace’s first season with Pettine as Defensive Coordinator, he posted a career-high with 8.0 sacks in just 12 games played. Terrell Suggs (BLT 05-08) In four seasons under Pettine, Suggs posted his four highest tackle totals, collected four of his five career interceptions and posted three season of at least eight sacks, leading the team in sacks twice.
WONDERFUL WORLD OF WESTHOFF No team in the league has had more kickoff return touchdowns since Mike Westhoff’s tenure with the Jets began in 2001. Since then, the Jets have scored 12 times on kickoff returns. Perhaps even more remarkable than the fact that the Jets lead the league with 12 scores, is that those scores have come from six different players. Leon Washington (4), Justin Miller (3), Chad Morton (2), Jerricho Cotchery (1), Brad Smith (1) and Jonathan Carter (1) have all brought a kick back for a score under Westy.

GREENE’S ROOKIE YEAR IN REVIEW RB Shonn Greene finished his rookie campaign with 540 rushing yards and two touchdowns, averaging 5.0 yards per carry. • Shonn Greene led the Jets with 144 yards rushing and two touchdowns, averaging 5.0 yards per carry at OAK, 10/25. • Greene’s 144 yards represent the third-highest rushing total for a Jets rookie in franchise history. As a rookie, Matt Snell ran for 168 vs. OAK and 180 vs. HOU in back-to-back weeks in 1964. • Greene is the sixth Jets rookie to rush for more than 100 yards in a game (11th time) and third since 1990. The roster: Snell - twice, 1964; Clark Gaines - four times, 1976; Scott Dierking - once, 1977; Blair Thomas once, 1990; Leon Washington - twice, 2006.
GOING GREENE IN THE PLAYOFFS Shonn Greene ran for more than 125 yards and a touchdown in each of his first two postseason games, the first player in NFL history to do that, posting 135 at CIN and 128 at SD. • Greene led the NFL in rushing during the 2009 postseason (54-304-2). His 263 rushing yards as a rookie in his first two postseason games is the second-most by a 18
rookie in NFL history, behind only DAL’s Duane Thomas, who rushed for 278 yards in his first two postseason games as a rookie in the 1970 season. • He reeled off the the two longest runs in Jets postseason history. His 53-yard touchdown run at SD bettered his 39-yard touchdown run at CIN. Both runs topped his regular season best, a 33-yard run at OAK. The previous long for a rushing touchdown in Jets playoff history was by Freeman McNeil, 25 yards, 1/3/87 at CLE. • At CIN, Greene finished with 135 yards and a touchdown on 21 carries, tying him for the second-best in Jets postseason history with Freeman McNeil, vs. KC, 12/28/86. Greene became the third RB since the 2000 Playoffs to go over 100 yards rushing in a single postseason game (Joseph Addai, IND, 2006; Jamal Lewis, BAL, 2000). • Greene’s touchdown run and Mark Sanchez’s scoring pass in each game made the 2009 Jets the first team to get a scoring run and pass from rookies in a postseason game since the 1934 Giants, a feat the Jets have now accomplished twice. The Giants’ Ed Danowski had a rushing touchdown and two passing touchdowns 76 years ago. Longest Running Plays -- POST SEASON FRANCHISE HISTORY Player Yds Opp Date 1. S. Greene 53t at SD 1/17/10 2.

JETS NOTES DARRELLE REVIS CB Darrelle Revis, who was named to the All-Pro team this season, was voted the 2009 Curtis Martin Team MVP by his teammates. NFL Network credited Revis with 31 PD on the season, the most in the NFL since 1994. For his career, he has recorded 14 interceptions, 222 tackles, one sack, 62 passes defensed, two forced fumbles, two fumble recoveries and two touchdowns. • The two-time Pro Bowl CB posted an NFL-high 34 passes defensed to go with his team-leading six interceptions and 71 tackles, anchoring a unit that finished No. 1 in the NFL in pass defense, total defense and points allowed. • Week 1, Revis blanketed Andre Johnson at HST (4-35) during Week 1. Johnson broke out for 10 catches for 149 yards and two scores in Week 2 vs. TEN. • Week 2, Revis limited Randy Moss (4-24), vs. NE, 9/20, the week after Moss torched BUF (12-141) on opening weekend, also snagging his first interception off of Tom Brady. In the return matchup at NE Week 11, Moss caught five balls for 34 yards and a four-yard touchdown, 11/22. • Week 3 vs. TEN, 9/27, Revis registered a season-high eight tackles and was a key part of the secondary that shut down QB Kerry Collins during most of the second half, forcing him into 13 consecutive incompletions to close the game. • Week 4 at NO, 10/4, Revis held Marques Colston to 2-33 as the Jets limited NO to 10 points on offense. • Week 6 vs. BUF, 10/18, Revis limited Terrell Owens to three receptions for 13 yards. When asked about Revis’ coverage, Owens said, “He followed me everywhere I went.” • Week 7 at OAK, 10/25, Revis picked off JaMarcus Russell with an acrobatic catch in the end zone. • In Week 10, after an early Mike Sims-Walker TD, the Jets put Revis on the standout JAX receiver, holding him to one catch for nine yards in the second half of that game, 11/15. • Week 12, Revis was on Steve Smith the entire game vs. CAR, 11/29, and Smith caught one pass for five yards, while Revis grabbed two Jake Delhomme passes, his third and fourth interceptions of the season. Early in the game, a pass deflected off Smith’s foot into Revis’ hands, and the CB took it 67 yards to open the scoring. Revis also picked off Delhomme in the second quarter. Revis was named AFC Defensive Player of the Week for his effort. • Week 13 vs. BUF in Toronto, 12/3, matched up against Owens again, Revis held TO to three catches for 31 yards, adding an interception right before the two-minute warning in the second half that sealed the win. The Associated Press recognized him as their NFL Player of the Week. • In Week 14 at TB, 12/13, Revis intercepted Josh Freeman in the fourth quarter and returned it 54 yards to the seven-yard line, his third consecutive game with an interception and sixth of the season. The interception led to the team’s final touchdown. He led a defensive unit that held Freeman to 14-of-33 passing, 93 yards and three interceptions. NEWYORKJETS.COM
• In Week 15 vs, ATL, Revis was matched up on Roddy White, another 2008 Pro Bowler, and White was thrown to 10 times, catching four passes for 33 yards. • At IND Week 16, Revis matched up on Reggie Wayne and held him to three catches for 33 yards. • Revis covered Chad Ochocinco Week 17, holding him catchless, snapping his 120-game reception streak.
2009 JETS MOST VALUABLE PLAYER Revis was voted the Curtis Martin Team MVP by his teammates after recording six INT, 34 PD and 72 tackles.

2009 ED BLOCK COURAGE AWARD WINNER David Harris was selected as the New York Jets 2009 Ed Block Courage Award Winner. His teammates voted for him 20
as he represented the two principles of the award: sportsmanship and courage. In 2009, entering his third season as a pro, Harris had overcome two injuries.

The Jets drafted Harris in the second round (47th overall) of the 2007 NFL Draft. In 2007, Harris participated in the Newark Star Ledger Junior Reporter program. The program works to increase participation in classes with dozens of hands-on activities. Further in 2008, he supported programs benefiting the children and youth of New York City at the 13th Annual Gridiron Gala.
AFC DEFENSIVE PLAYER OF THE WEEK, 9/13/09 • Harris registered a team-high 12 tackles, one sack and one PD in a 24-7 road win at HST on 9/13. • Harris helped limit the Texans’ offense to 183 total yards (145 passing yards, 38 rush yards). • He recorded his first sack of the season in the third quarter taking down HST QB Matt Schaub. • Part of Jets defensive unit that did not allow an offensive touchdown for the first time since 11/9/08, vs. SL. • Marked his first career Player of the Week Award.

SCOTT SETS THE TONE FOR “THE D” LB Bart Scott personifies Coach Ryan’s personality on the field, where he has registered five-consecutive seasons of 100-or-more tackles. Scott has played in 125 games, missing only three in 2004 and has logged 615 tackles, 17 sacks, three interceptions, 24 passes defensed, three forced fumbles and four fumble recoveries.
REX AND THE REX-PERTS The reshaping of the Jets, specifically the defense, started with the hiring of Head Coach Rex Ryan on Jan. 21, 2009, from the Baltimore Ravens. Ryan spent four seasons (200508) at the helm of the Ravens defense, considered one of the best in the NFL Ryan’s first hire was Ravens OLB Coach Mike Pettine as the Jets defensive coordinator. Next came Dennis Thurman, who had left the Ravens in 2008 after six years in Baltimore, to coach the Jets defensive backs and he brought in Matt Cavanaugh, the Ravens offensive coordinator during their Super Bowl win, to coach the quarterbacks. Ryan added one more former Ravens’ coach to the Jets staff in 2010, when he added Mark Carrier to tutor the defensive line. Once the 2009 free agency period began, the Jets showed up on Bart Scott’s doorstep to sign the LB and followed up that signing by agreeing to a deal with by S Jim Leonhard.

KICKIN IT WITH FOLK Nick Folk, a former sixth-round pick by the Dallas Cowboys in 2007, made the Pro Bowl his rookie year after finishing fourth in the NFL in points with 131. That season he was a perfect 14-for-14 on field goals from 30 to 49 yards. No player in the league had a higher percentage of 40-49 yard field goals made during Folk’s first two seasons (200708). Player M A Pct Nick Folk 17 18 94.4 Neil Rackers 11 12 91.7 Jason Hanson 17 19 89.5 Jason Elam 19 22 86.4 Phil Dawson 12 14 85.7 Folk continued that trend in the preseason going 7-of-9 on field goal attempts, including 6-of-7 on kicks from 30 to 49 yards. This season he has connected on all three of field goal attempts (23, 28 and 48).
SMITH BLOCKS IT Eric Smith has become an invaluable member of Mike Westhoff’s special teams unit, ranking second on the team with 25 special teams tackles. But just like Brad Smith, Eric Smith is also called upon for a big play from time-to-time. Needing a spark late in the first half against NE, Eric Smith blocked a Chris Hanson punt that Brad Smith scooped up for a four-yard touchdown. Eric Smith did not wait long to duplicate his feat, blocking a Matt Dodge punt in the first preseason game against the Giants. The Smiths would link up again for a big play when Brad Smith threw complete to Eric Smith for a 27-yard gain on a fake punt. The conversion gave the Jets a new set of downs and lead to their second score giving the team a 6-0 lead in a game they would ultimately prevail 26-3.
WR/QB/RB BRAD SMITH Brad Smith’s contributions to Mike Westhoff’s special teams unit have ranged from solid to spectacular. The solid came 24
from his 20 tackles on special teams, ranking him fourth on the team. The spectacular came on his two special teams touchdowns, the team’s only two special teams scores this season. He scored the Jets first special teams touchdown of the season when he picked up an Eric Smith blocked punt and walked in four yards for a touchdown and scored again after racing 106 yards with the second-half kickoff against the Indianapolis Colts in a must-win game in week 16. Brad Smith took over as the team’s kick returner late in the season and amassed a 31-yard per return average on his 10 returns. That 31 yard-per-return average would have been good enough for the league-lead (Clifton Smith 29.1) if he had enough returns to qualify.

Less than 30% of patients can find a match in their own family; the other 70% must search for an unrelated donor. According to the NMDP, 55% of Hispanics or Latinos in need of a life-saving transplant do not receive one and 83% of African Americans in need of a transplant to not receive one. JULY: Jerricho Cotchery preformed with the 12 Angry Mascots’ Scott Rogowsky at the Gotham Comedy Club in New York, NY. LaDainian Tomlinson granted the wish of nine-year old LaJerrick Keyes through the Make-A-Wish foundation.

GAME NOTES Offense: RB Shonn Greene made the first start of his NFL career and recorded the first regular-season reception of his NFL career when he caught a nine-yard pass from QB Mark Sanchez on the game’s second play. Defense: On the first offensive play for the Ravens, DE Shaun Ellis and LB Bryan Thomas split a seven-yard sack of QB Joe Flacco, forcing a fumble that was recovered by NT Sione Pouha for a two-yard return. The fumble recovery by Pouha was the first of his career. Rookie CB Kyle Wilson recorded the first pass defense of his career when he broke up a pass intended for WR Anquan Boldin in the end zone. The Jets forced a second fumble, when LB Bart Scott wrestled the ball free from RB Willis McGahee after a tackle for a two-yard loss. The fumble was again recovered by Pouha. Thomas, who already split a sack with Ellis, recorded another when he dropped Flacco for a loss of eight yards. CB Antonio Cromartie intercepted a Flacco pass for his first interception as a Jet. Cromartie then returned the ball 66 yards to the 31-yard line. The 66-yard return marked the second-longest of his career (longest: 70 yards off QB Matt Schaub on 10/28/07).

GAME 1 REVIEW GAME NOTES CONTINUED Special Teams: K Nick Folk opened the scoring when he connected on a 23-yard field goal to cap the Jets second drive. The field goal marked Folk’s first as a member of the Jets. He would later add two more field goals, including a 48-yard field goal to pull the Jets within one point at the start of the fourth quarter. S Jim Leonhard returned a punt 32 yards into Baltimore territory. For Leonhard, that return marked his longest punt return since he returned a punt 37 yards against Tennessee on 9/27/09. He later added another long return with a 22-yarder, that set up a field goal drive to help pull the Jets within a point. After a 56-yard P Steve Weatherford punt, S James Ihedigbo tackled S Tom Zbikowski for a loss of four yards at the one-yard line. Weatherford pinned the Ravens inside the five again, when he punted 38 yards to the two-yard line before CB Marquice Cole and Ihedigbo downed the ball. For the game, Weatherford had four punts inside the 20, a career-high. Miscellaneous: Kickoff was delayed 25 minutes due to inclement weather (7:25 Kickoff) The Jets finished with 14 penalties for 125 yards, the most they’ve had in a game since 10/18/09 against Buffalo last year. The Jets record for most penalties in a game is 17, committed vs. Miami on 10/18/1987 and the record for most penalty yards is 161, record against Cleveland on the first-ever Monday Night game on 9/21/1970.
