The only reason they don't get an 'F' is because they made a game of it - temporarily - in the second half with that 11-play, 80-yard drive and Thomas Jones wound up finishing with 103 almost invisible yards.

Writers and editors from The New York Times will be providing live analysis during the Jets' game against the New England Patriots in Foxborough, Mass.

With punt returner Jim Leonhard unlikely to play Sunday and the Jets' best kickoff returner, Leon Washington, already out for the season with a broken leg, the team remains in search of return candidates.

Snap, Crackle & Pop Snap, Crackle and Pop is a weekly column that reviews the major injuries and then projects both busts and sleepers for the coming week.

NFL Network's Jason LaCanfora reports that Jets WRs Jerricho Cotchery and David Clowney, along with DE Shaun Ellis and LB Bart Scott, are expected to play against the Dolphins on Sunday.

It looks like for the first time since the Jets traded for Braylon Edwards the team will have the big 3 all together.

New York Jets wide receiver Jerricho Cotchery is expected to return to the field on Sunday versus Miami despite being listed as questionable on the injury report.
