Using youth in net is a long term strategy and yes it will cost us today.
This team is still going in the right direction.

I didn't expect them to make the playoffs either, but, they did run into the 2nd most man games lost to injuries so far in the league and the worst schedule by a mile. I think I read somewhere the Jets had 1 or no practices in November due to the ridiculous scheduling and travel.
The Jets are still within striking distance of making the playoffs if they can prevent anymore extended losing streaks, and hopefully with their scheduling easing up and the injuries getting better we can get close.
I think the issue is the quality of forwards and D drops dramatically after the top half. This is something we can blame on injuries I guess, but Chevy has to wear that too.
