New York Jets 2004 Dynasty

mmarra82 · 11-26-2003, 04:14 PM

I have chosen to begin a career with the NY Jets. I watch all my games through the scoreboard and once in a while will jump in to call a play, but primarily leave it in the hands of my coaches. I am at Wall Street Level, injury settings at 100, using real rosters. The first order of business was to change the name of the city from New Jersey to New York. I do not know why Jim continues to put the Jets in Jersey but the Giants are in New York. The Jets home offices and facilities are on Long Island. Anyway:

The staff
Hd Coach Rusty Kipp (55 years old)
Motivation G
Discipline G
Off PC VG
Deff PC F
Inj Avoid E

So he is OK in the major coaching areas. Def PC worries me a little, but we will see how it goes.

Off Cord Bob Wolfe (43 years old)
QB G
RB A
Rec A
OL VG
Kick VG
Young Talent VG

We look for Bob to improve under Coach Kipp.

Def Cord Phillip Maxwell (47 Years Old)
Kick A
DL G
LB VG
Sec G
Young Talent G

Phillip appears to be decent as well.

Lead Scout
Teddy Fangboner (37 Years old)

Fangboner is young however he is rated G in every category except QB and RB which are FAIR. I worry about this a little, I hope I am getting an accurate read on Pennington which the Franchise is counting on.

I would like to display my rosters, if someone can tell me how. The roster is looking all jumbled, not like it does in the file that I created. For example:

Player # Pos Start Exp Current Estimate Future Estimate Cntrct
Bollinger, Brooks 5 QB 1 4 24 3 yrs
Pennington, Chad 10 QB QB 3 47 76 2 yrs
Martin, Jamie 11 QB 6 9 28 1 yr.
Testaverde, Vinny 16 QB 16 40 40 4 yrs

mmarra82 · 11-26-2003, 04:30 PM

Our teams franchise value is 5th best in the league at $507,000,000. Our stadium and parking is rated as excellent, while our turf is rated average (funny we share the same stadium as the Giants and there condition is Good, turf is average, parking is poor.) I guess there is no use in looking into a retractable roof stadium on Manhattan's west side any time soon.

Something that did raise my eyes was to the cost for a family of 4, highest in the league at $526. We have to put a good product on the field in order to succeed financially.

Season ticket sales are at 72,600 out of 79,700. Not bad.

According to our scouts we are weak at the OG position as well as our DB's.

Offensive-Pennington will be the starter, although his numbers are similar to Testaverde, we need for Pennington to lead now, especially with his contract up following the 2004 season. We need to know if he is the real deal before offering an extension. Moss will get the start at SE because of his big play ability, however him and Chrebet will alternate often. The game plan has also been modified to include SE2 in all three+ wide receivers sets. Right now I might play Center Dennis O'Sullivan out of position at LG to get us through the season, not that it will be a major upgrade. Hopefully, Smith and McKenzie will develop nicely over the season so our needs for next season will be soley a LG. With the exception of Mawae our Line could be our downfall on Offense.

Defense- Our front seven is looking real strong. Abraham is a monster pass rusher, Ellis is a solid starter, Ferguson is solid against the run, and we can bring in McGlockton for pass rushing. Our #1 pick Robertson looks to be the real deal. He is rated on the Green Page. He will start and take his rookie lumps but expectations are high. We have solid DL backups in Thomas, Walters and McGlockton. The LB's are good, Cowart and Jones are solid starters, Lewis is on the downside of his career, the rookie Hobson has a nice looking future and will see plenty of action. Depth could be a concern if an injury should occur. At DB is where our defense gets shows weaknesses. With the exception of CB Beasley we need help here. Abraham, Mickens and Shepherd will all get there shot at LCB. Right now Garnes has been moved from SS to FS. Carter gets the start at SS, he is a good against the run. Pagel will be active on our roster because of his special teams abilities. McGraw could be the one who sees little action.

Right now we have 56 players signed, 3 will be getting the axe following the preseason. Martin and Bollinger are battling for the QB3 position, however Bollinger has the upper hand because of his holding abilities (rated 92). We are carrying 12 OL right now, so likely 2 will pack their bags at the end of the preseason bringing us down to 53.

Time to see what we have here as the preseason starts.

We are ranked 13th in AFC power ratings at 52, to start the season. Our first four games however gives us a chance, a chance, to start 3-1. Washington (53) and Dallas (35) are rated towards the bottom of the NFC while New England (64) is rated slightly better and Miami (78) is rated tops in the AFC.

It looks like you were able to copy the rosters straight out of the game. I can't do that for some reason. I can't copy anything from the game except box scores and game logs. How are you guys doing it?

Do you have a special utility or am I missing something totally obvious?

We just completed a tough 5 game preseason schedule. What are the schedule makers thinking about? We completed the preseason 2-3, and no major injuries the roster is now cut down to 53 players to begin the regular season.

A look at our preseason results:

The team began with a tough fought game against Tampa Bay resulting with a loss, followed by wins against Cincinnati and New Orleans, follwed by two more loses to New York Giants and Philadelphia.

In those five games the team was outgained on average 327 to 291. With the exception of the New Orleans game in which they gained 455 yards against us, the defense looked respectable. We are concerned with our DB's, Abraham beat out Mickens and Shepherd for the starting LCB spot, although all three will see action in regular downs as well as nickel and dime situations. McGraw and Pagel showed little at the FS position so Garnes will play out of position at FS with Carter at SS. The D-line got tremendous pressure on the QB's, led by John Abraham who recorded 5.5 sacks during the preseason. Rookie DT Dwayne Robertson looked good at times applying pressure on the QB, however he also got knocked on his back against the run on several occasions.

On the offensive side of the ball, we were disappointed. Pennington did not look sharp in the preseason completing only 55% of his passes for an average of 5.9 yards an attempt. Testaverde got some reps as well as Bollinger and Martin. Bollinger won out for the #3 QB, although we hope he never has to see game action this season. Conway had a huge game against Cincinnati, but was not a factor in the other four games. TE Becht looked good, as well as C Kevin Mawae and Tackles Fabini and McKenzie. Back-up OL Machado made the most of his opportunities, however the play of the guards was below the standard of professional linemen.

To get down to 53 the team cut the following:
QB Jamie Martin
LG Brandon Moore
RG Jonathan Goodwin
LG Dave Yovanovitis

the team signed FA LG Robert Capsso from Penn State. Capasso was not with any other teams during camp, so the Jets will have to bring him along slowly.

The Jets are now reviewing game plans in preparation for the season opener against Washington.

mmarra82 · 12-01-2003, 07:39 PM

Week 1 - New York Jets at Washington Redskins (NFL Opening Night)

The much-anticipated match up of the new look Redskins versus the New York Jets took place in Washington. Rob Johnson leads the Redskins at quarterback, who surprisingly beat out Patrick Ramsey. Washington coach Ellis Stokes is known to switch his quarterbacks based on the hot hand. Much has been made of this match up since the defection of Laveraneus Coles, Chad Morton, Randy Thomas and John Hall from the Jets to the Redskins.

The Jets and Redskins played a defensive style football game with the Jets winning 16-10, despite being out gained by Washington 319-258. The Jets played mistake free football, not turning the ball over fewer penalties and special teams performance. NY Jets punter, Dan Stryzinski pinned the Redskins deep in their own territory as the Jets won the field position battle. The Jets lone touchdown came from rookie fullback, AJ Askew on a 1-yard touchdown pass from Chad Pennington. Pennington finished the game, 22 for 38, 189 yards passing and a touchdown. Curtis Martin contributed with 57 yards on 23 carries; however, a lot of those runs were on third and short situations to keep the chains moving and end the game.

mmarra82 High School Varsity Join Date: May 2001 Location: Oakdale, New York	2003 Roster According to our scouts we are weak at the OG position as well as our DB's. Offensive-Pennington will be the starter, although his numbers are similar to Testaverde, we need for Pennington to lead now, especially with his contract up following the 2004 season. We need to know if he is the real deal before offering an extension. Moss will get the start at SE because of his big play ability, however him and Chrebet will alternate often. The game plan has also been modified to include SE2 in all three+ wide receivers sets. Right now I might play Center Dennis O'Sullivan out of position at LG to get us through the season, not that it will be a major upgrade. Hopefully, Smith and McKenzie will develop nicely over the season so our needs for next season will be soley a LG. With the exception of Mawae our Line could be our downfall on Offense. Defense- Our front seven is looking real strong. Abraham is a monster pass rusher, Ellis is a solid starter, Ferguson is solid against the run, and we can bring in McGlockton for pass rushing. Our #1 pick Robertson looks to be the real deal. He is rated on the Green Page. He will start and take his rookie lumps but expectations are high. We have solid DL backups in Thomas, Walters and McGlockton. The LB's are good, Cowart and Jones are solid starters, Lewis is on the downside of his career, the rookie Hobson has a nice looking future and will see plenty of action. Depth could be a concern if an injury should occur. At DB is where our defense gets shows weaknesses. With the exception of CB Beasley we need help here. Abraham, Mickens and Shepherd will all get there shot at LCB. Right now Garnes has been moved from SS to FS. Carter gets the start at SS, he is a good against the run. Pagel will be active on our roster because of his special teams abilities. McGraw could be the one who sees little action. Right now we have 56 players signed, 3 will be getting the axe following the preseason. Martin and Bollinger are battling for the QB3 position, however Bollinger has the upper hand because of his holding abilities (rated 92). We are carrying 12 OL right now, so likely 2 will pack their bags at the end of the preseason bringing us down to 53. Time to see what we have here as the preseason starts.

mmarra82 High School Varsity Join Date: May 2001 Location: Oakdale, New York	2003 Preseason The team began with a tough fought game against Tampa Bay resulting with a loss, followed by wins against Cincinnati and New Orleans, follwed by two more loses to New York Giants and Philadelphia. In those five games the team was outgained on average 327 to 291. With the exception of the New Orleans game in which they gained 455 yards against us, the defense looked respectable. We are concerned with our DB's, Abraham beat out Mickens and Shepherd for the starting LCB spot, although all three will see action in regular downs as well as nickel and dime situations. McGraw and Pagel showed little at the FS position so Garnes will play out of position at FS with Carter at SS. The D-line got tremendous pressure on the QB's, led by John Abraham who recorded 5.5 sacks during the preseason. Rookie DT Dwayne Robertson looked good at times applying pressure on the QB, however he also got knocked on his back against the run on several occasions. On the offensive side of the ball, we were disappointed. Pennington did not look sharp in the preseason completing only 55% of his passes for an average of 5.9 yards an attempt. Testaverde got some reps as well as Bollinger and Martin. Bollinger won out for the #3 QB, although we hope he never has to see game action this season. Conway had a huge game against Cincinnati, but was not a factor in the other four games. TE Becht looked good, as well as C Kevin Mawae and Tackles Fabini and McKenzie. Back-up OL Machado made the most of his opportunities, however the play of the guards was below the standard of professional linemen. To get down to 53 the team cut the following: QB Jamie Martin LG Brandon Moore RG Jonathan Goodwin LG Dave Yovanovitis the team signed FA LG Robert Capsso from Penn State. Capasso was not with any other teams during camp, so the Jets will have to bring him along slowly. The Jets are now reviewing game plans in preparation for the season opener against Washington.

mmarra82 High School Varsity Join Date: May 2001 Location: Oakdale, New York	Our teams franchise value is 5th best in the league at $507,000,000. Our stadium and parking is rated as excellent, while our turf is rated average (funny we share the same stadium as the Giants and there condition is Good, turf is average, parking is poor.) I guess there is no use in looking into a retractable roof stadium on Manhattan's west side any time soon. Something that did raise my eyes was to the cost for a family of 4, highest in the league at $526. We have to put a good product on the field in order to succeed financially. Season ticket sales are at 72,600 out of 79,700. Not bad. __________________ VNFL Chargers VNFL AFC President NAFL Super Bowl Champions 2005 New York Jets

mmarra82 High School Varsity Join Date: May 2001 Location: Oakdale, New York	We are ranked 13th in AFC power ratings at 52, to start the season. Our first four games however gives us a chance, a chance, to start 3-1. Washington (53) and Dallas (35) are rated towards the bottom of the NFC while New England (64) is rated slightly better and Miami (78) is rated tops in the AFC.

GoSeahawks High School Varsity Join Date: Nov 2003 Location: Olympia, Wa	It looks like you were able to copy the rosters straight out of the game. I can't do that for some reason. I can't copy anything from the game except box scores and game logs. How are you guys doing it? Do you have a special utility or am I missing something totally obvious?

mmarra82 High School Varsity Join Date: May 2001 Location: Oakdale, New York	Weeks 1 & 2 Week 1 - New York Jets at Washington Redskins (NFL Opening Night) The much-anticipated match up of the new look Redskins versus the New York Jets took place in Washington. Rob Johnson leads the Redskins at quarterback, who surprisingly beat out Patrick Ramsey. Washington coach Ellis Stokes is known to switch his quarterbacks based on the hot hand. Much has been made of this match up since the defection of Laveraneus Coles, Chad Morton, Randy Thomas and John Hall from the Jets to the Redskins. The Jets and Redskins played a defensive style football game with the Jets winning 16-10, despite being out gained by Washington 319-258. The Jets played mistake free football, not turning the ball over fewer penalties and special teams performance. NY Jets punter, Dan Stryzinski pinned the Redskins deep in their own territory as the Jets won the field position battle. The Jets lone touchdown came from rookie fullback, AJ Askew on a 1-yard touchdown pass from Chad Pennington. Pennington finished the game, 22 for 38, 189 yards passing and a touchdown. Curtis Martin contributed with 57 yards on 23 carries; however, a lot of those runs were on third and short situations to keep the chains moving and end the game. Strong Safety, Tyrone Carter who finished with 10 tackles, led the Jets on defense. Game MVP went to Chad Pennington. Next for the Jets, Miami comes to town after a 17-10 win over Houston.
