N.Y. Jets 2012 schedule leaked?!

Shazam! Only in the world of mainstream media and the internet can this happen. While surfing through Facebook, I ran into a post that revealed the Jets' upcoming home schedule for the 2012 season. After doing some quick research, the entire schedule was revealed. JetsTwit.  It's hard to know if this is the real deal or not. If it is real, here is what it looks like:

Week 1: Dolphins @ Jets 1 pm CBS
Week 2: Jets @ Patriots 8:20 NBC 
Week 3: Bills @ Jets 1 pm CBS
Week 4: Jets @ Rams 4:15 CBS
Week 5: BYE
Week 6: Jets @ Dolphins 1 pm CBS 
Week 7: Cardinals @ Jets 4:05 FOX
Week 8: Jets @ Seahawks 4:15 CBS
Week 9: Jets @ Steelers 8:20 NBC
Week 10: Colts @ Jets 8:30 ESPN
Week 11: Chargers @ Jets 1 pm CBS 
Week 12: 49ers @ Jets 1 pm FOX
Week 13: Jets @ Titans 1 pm CBS
Week 14: Jets @ Jaguars 8:20 NFLN
Week 15: Jets @ Bills 1 pm CBS 
Week 16: Texans @ Jets 1 pm CBS 
 Week 17: Patriots @ Jets 1 pm CBS  

In spite of all their problems last season, the Jets get four prime-time games, two on Sunday night, Week 2 against the Patriots and Week 9 against the Steelers. It is interesting to note that for some reason ESPN felt it necessary to put Jets-Colts on Monday night, and the NFL Network did ESPN one better by putting (yawn) Jets-Jaguars on a Thursday night. I find it surprising that those two games have been scheduled at night, which might mean that this release may not be the official schedule (read below).

UPDATE 11:10 pm, Friday: While the source of the initial schedule release is probably not reliable, there has been a huge influx in the last few hours of calls to the NFL offices about leaked schedules online for all 32 teams. According to NBC's Mike Florio, these schedules are "bogus." If fake, it's a pretty convincing job. The REAL NFL schedule will be released on April 17.

Jets, Dolphins and Patriots Playoff Breakdown

Here are the formuli that could get the Jets into and out of the playoff party this season: 1) If the Jets win against Seattle and Miami, they win the AFC East based on a better conference record (8-4) than the New England Patriots, even if New England wins out as well. 2) If the Patriots win out and the Dolphins win out and finish at 11-5, the Jets would be 10-6, or 9-7, and probably out of the playoffs. Both New England and Miami would make the playoffs, with the Dolphins as a divison winner and the Patriots as a wild card. The Patriots make the postseason if Baltimore loses one of its final two games. 3) If the Patriots win out and the Dolphins and Jets split, then the Patriots win the AFC East. The Jets will have to hope that they beat Miami to win that tie-breaker and, further, hope that they have a better conference record than the Baltimore Ravens in order to clinch the sixth seed. 4) If the Patriots and Ravens win out and the Dolphins and Jets split their final two games, then ...

Francisco Lindor Remains Red Hot as Mets Top Phillies

 Francisco Lindor remains the hottest player in Queens right now.  The Mets shortstop blasted two more home runs, including a three-run blast in the bottom of the eighth inning, Monday night to help propel the Mets to a 5-4 win over Philadelphia.   Lindor who typically struggles in the month of April is putting together a heck of a month. Monday's two hit effort was the 10th game in the last 11 where Lindor has recorded a hit. In fact in the month of April alone this year, Lindor was hitting at .311 coming into Monday's action.  On the year, Lindor is batting .284 with five homers and 13 RBI.  Lindor's efforts proved to be prophetic, as the Phillies Alec Bohm crushed a three-run bomb off Edwin Diaz in the top of the ninth to cut the Mets lead to a single run. Fortunately for New York, Diaz was able to shut the door with strikeouts of Trea Turner and Bryce Harper.  New York (16-7) has now won five in a row.  

Is Aaron Glenn in Danger of Getting Fired?

 According to Pro Football Talk's Mike Florio there is a "chance"   that Jets head coach Aaron Glenn could be fired at seasons end.  While Florio doesn't site any sources, the rumor has caught fire the last two days. The question is would it make sense? Let's examine this for a second?  Why it Makes Sense:  Glenn has not been great in his first year as Head Coach of this team. The talent has taken a major step backwards, granted two of those talented players were traded away in Sauce Gardner to Indianapolis and Quinnen Williams to Dallas.  The decision he and GM Darren Mougey made to give Justin Fields a two year deal proved to be a horrible mistake, and Glenn stuck with Fields for far too long before pulling the plug following the Jets loss to the Patriots on a Thursday night in mid November.  Glenn gave now former Defensive Coordinator Steve Wilks too much power to run the defense, and the players couldn't stand Wilks. Reports indicated this week af...
