OVERVIEW BY POSITION

Quarterbacks (3), Returning Starter (1)Coach Matt Cavanaugh:Mark Sanchez finished the season with a career-high 3,291 yards, 17 touchdowns and 13 interceptions for a passer rat-ing of 75.3 on the season. His six-career rushing touchdowns ties him for fourth amongst Jets quarterbacks in club history. Became only the second quarterback (Ben Roethlisberger 5, 2004-05) to start and win four postseason games in their first two seasons in the NFL. Recorded a 127.3 passer rating on 16-of-25 passing for 194 yards and three touchdowns in the club’s win at NE (1/16). It is the first time he has thrown three touchdown passes in a postseason game, and the mark tied the club record for most in a single postseason game. Led the Jets on a five-play, 40-yard game-winning drive, in which he completed all three of his passes for 38 yards in the Wild Card victory at IND (1/8). The Jets win marked San-chez’s third postseason win, the most by any QB in franchise history. In the last two regular-season games in which he threw a pass, he totaled 439 yards, one touchdown and one interception while he completed 43-of-66 pass attempts. He made his 25th regular season start vs. HST (11/21) and completed 22-of-38 passes for 315 yards and three touch-downs with one interception for a 100.2 passer rating. It was his second career 300-yard passing game. As a starter, Sanchez owns a record of 19-12 during the regular season and a 22-13 mark, including the postseason. His first-career 300-yard passing game came in Week Nine at DET (11/7), when he recorded 336 yards, one touchdown and one inter-ception on 22-of-39 passing. Eight touchdown passes and no interceptions during the first five games of the season made him the youngest passer in NFL history to throw eight touchdown passes without an interception. Veteran Mark Brunell signed with the Jets as a free agent (7/28/10) after a Super Bowl victory with NO last season. The three-time Pro Bowler, saw limited action during the 2010 season complet-ing 7-of-13 passes for 117 yards, 2 TDs and 1 INT. For his career, he has thrown for 32,045 yards and 184 touch-downs and rushed for 2,421 yards and 15 touchdowns. His action this season came in both BUF contests. In the season finale vs BUF (1/2), he showed his Pro Bowl skills are still at his disposal, throwing two touchdowns and an intercep-tion on 6-of-12 passing. Fifth-year passer Kellen Clemens was inactive as the third quarterback for 15 games this sea-son before seeing action in the season finale vs. BUF (1/2), where he completed one pass for six yards and ran for a 10-yard touchdown. It was the second rushing touchdown of his career. Clemens has completed 147-of-284 passes with five touchdowns and 11 interceptions while in the NFL.

Running Backs (5), Returning Starter (1)Coach Anthony Lynn:Both considered by Head Coach Rex Ryan as starters, run-ning backs LaDainian Tomlinson and Shonn Greene form a 1-2 punch that enabled the Jets to rank fourth in the NFL in rushing, despite playing five games against top six rushing defenses. Tomlinson led the team with 914 yards and six

rushing touchdowns on 219 carries. He recorded 133 yards and two touchdowns on 19 carries at BUF (10/3), his first 100-yard effort since 10/26/08 at NO (19-105) as a San Diego Charger. His 52 receptions are second on the club. Re-corded the second-most productive postseason game of his career at IND (1/8) when he rushed for two touchdowns and 82 yards on 16 carries (5.1 avg.). He ran for 43 yards on 10 carries (4.3 avg.) and scored his first receiving touchdown in the postseason at NE (1/16). Second-year runner Greene rushed for 766 yards and two touchdowns on 185 carries during the season. Greene added 70 yards on 19 carries in the Wild Card victory at IND (1/8). Registered his third post-season rushing touchdown, tied for most in franchise history, when he raced 16 yards for the Jets final score of the game at NE (1/16). For his career, Greene has a 5.0 yard-per-carry average, the best among Jets rushers all-time that have car-ried the ball at least 40 times. Three-time Pro Bowl fullback Tony Richardson has helped his teams rush for 20-or-more touchdowns in seven of the past eight seasons, including league-highs in [2002 (KC-26), 2003 (KC-32), 2004 (KC-33)]. Selected by the Jets in the fifth round from Kentucky, rookie fullback John Conner sees action as a key reserve on offense and on special teams. He rushed for 44 yards and his first NFL touchdown on eight carries in the last game of the season vs. BUF (1/2). A fourth-round selection out of USC, Joe McKnight amassed a Jet season-high when he rushed for 158 yards on 32 carries in the season finale vs. BUF (1/2). He also caught 2 passes for 15 yards. He earned his first NFL rushing attempt at BUF (10/3). McKnight caught his first NFL pass, a five-yard reception, vs. MIA (12/12). He recorded his first postseason carry, a two-yard end around at NE (1/16).

Wide Receivers (4), Returning Starters (2)Coach Henry Ellard:Returning veterans Jerricho Cotchery, Braylon Edwards and Brad Smith have been joined by Super Bowl XLIII MVP San-tonio Holmes who made his New York Jets debut vs. MIN (10/11). Both starting wide receivers, Edwards and Holmes, caught touchdown passes in the Jets win at NE (1/16), while Cotchery recorded the game’s longest reception, a 58-yard catch and run that set up Holmes’ score. Cotchery finished the game as the leading receiver with 96 yards on five recep-tions. In the team’s win at IND (1/8), Edwards hauled in two passes for 27 yards on the final drive, with his 18-yarder set-ting up the game-winning 32-yard field goal. Holmes finished with 46 yards. Edwards led all Jets receivers in touchdowns (7), receiving yards (904) and yards per reception (17.1). Five of his seven touchdowns receptions have occurred on plays of 30 yards or longer. Cotchery, who led the team in receiving the previous three seasons, recorded 41 receptions for 433 yards. He missed games vs. HST (11/21) and CIN (11/25) due to an injury. Smith caught four passes for 44 yards, and rushed for 299 yards and a touchdown on 38 carries. He returned his third-career kickoff for a touchdown at PIT (12/19). He recorded the Jets longest run of the sea-

son, a 53-yard touchdown, and scored on an 89-yard kickoff return vs. CIN (11/25). He threw the first touchdown pass of his career at BUF (10/3), a three-yard toss to TE Dustin Keller. Smith has scored his seven career touchdowns in five different ways (reception (2), rushing (2), kickoff return (3), blocked punt return and a pass). He is the only player in the modern football era (since 1933) to have scored touchdowns via: receiving, rushing, kickoff return and blocked punt return in addition to throwing a TD pass. Holmes had 52 catches for 746 yards and six touchdowns for the season, recording two 100-yard contests, totaling 114 yards at DET (11/7) and 126 vs. HST (11/21). In four Jets wins, Holmes reg-istered the game’s key play. At DEN (10/17), Holmes drew a 46-yard penalty with 1:26 remaining to set up the final touchdown in the 24-20 victory. At DET (11/7), Holmes had a 52-yard catch in overtime set up a game-winning field goal in a 23-20 win. In CLV (11/14) he notched a game-winning 37-yard touchdown with 16 seconds remaining in overtime, for the 26-20 victory. He caught the game-winning six-yard touchdown pass with 10 seconds remaining in regulation vs. HST (11/21).

Tight Ends (4), Returning Starter (1)Coach Mike Devlin:Third-year TE Dustin Keller ranks first on the team in recep-tions (55), and third in touchdowns (5) and receiving yards (687). He caught three passes for 42 yards in the Wild Card victory at IND (1/8). Ben Hartsock helps key the rushing at-tack. Matthew Mulligan has seen action in 11 games, mak-ing a start in the season opener vs. BLT (9/13) and plays primarily on special teams. Undrafted rookie free agent Jeff Cumberland caught his first NFL pass, a three-yard toss from Brad Smith, in the last game of the season vs. BUF (1/2).

Offensive Line (8), Returning Starters (4)Coach Bill Callahan:Four of the five starters returned for their third-consecutive season for an offensive line that helped the 2010 Jets average 148.4 rushing yards per game, fourth-best in the NFL. The unit also allowed the Jets to rush for 106 yards at Pittsburgh (12/19), the most the Steelers defense allowed this season. The unit powered the Jets offense to 169 yards on 38 rushes (4.4 avg.) in the club’s Wild Card victory at IND (1/8). In two consecutive postseasons under Coach Ryan, this unit has allowed the offense to average 148.8 rushing yards a game. In 2006, Jets General Manager Mike Tannenbaum focused on the offensive line, selecting LT D’Brickashaw Ferguson fourth overall and C Nick Mangold 29th overall in the NFL draft. The two players have started 80 consecutive games together, making them the only two players who entered the league together to start their team’s first 75 regular-season games on the same offensive line since 1970. Ferguson earned his second-consecutive Pro Bowl nod for his play this season, he was also awarded 2010 Pro Football Weekly’s Midseason All-Pro team honors, 2009 Pro Bowl honors and 2006 All-Rookie Team honors by Pro Football Weekly and the Pro Football Writer’s Association. During his first four

seasons, Mangold has earned 2009 Associated Press All-Pro honors, three consecutive Pro Bowl selections (08, 09, 10) and All-Rookie recognition in 2006 as voted by Pro Foot-ball Weekly and the Pro Football Writer’s Association. The lone new starter on the offensive line is second-year LG Matt Slauson, who earned the starting job after an impressive off-season and has started every game this season. RG Brandon Moore leads the group, was selected to 2010 Sports Illus-trated’s Midseason All-Pro team and has started 105 con-secutive games for the Jets. T Wayne Hunter earned his first-career start at right tackle in place of and injured T Damien Woody at PIT (12/19) and also started at CHI (12/26) and vs. BUF (1/2). In two games, the Jets faced fierce pass rush-ers Julius Peppers (CHI), James Harrison (PIT) and Lamarr Woodley (PIT) and only allowed one sack to James Farrior (PIT). Hunter started the club’s 28-21 win at NE (1/16). Second-round selection G/T Vladimir Ducasse saw action in his first NFL game at BUF (10/3) and again vs. BUF (1/2). C/G Robert Turner serves as the primary reserve at center and guard. He plays in the Jets jumbo package.

Defensive Line (7), Returning Starters (2)Coach Mark Carrier:The front has helped hold opposing rushing attacks to 3.6 yards per carry, which ranked fifth in the NFL. The defense was able to improve the yards per carry to 3.4 in the Wild Card win at IND (1/8). This group is led by two-time Pro Bowl DE Shaun Ellis, whose 72.5 career sacks rank third all-time in team history. He recorded two sacks in the club’s win at NE (1/16) and has three career postseason sacks, tied for third most in Jets history. On the season, Ellis fin-ished fourth on the team with 4.5 sacks and added a forced fumble. Mike DeVito has earned 11 starts following the loss of Kris Jenkins and recorded 46 tackles. Sione Pouha started 15 games this season (14 at NT and one at DT), moving over the center to replace the injured Jenkins, and tied for the most tackles among Jets defensive linemen with 46 and recovered a team-high three fumbles and two sacks.

Harris led the team for the third time in his four year career with 119 tackles and registered three sacks, a FR and two passes defensed, while Scott was second on the club with 94 tackles, one sack, one forced fumble and one pass defensed. Harris and Scott are the only two de-fenders to start all 16 regular-season games. Harris recorded his first postseason interception when he grabbed a QB Tom Brady pass and raced 58 yards to the Patriots 12-yard line in the club’s 28-21 win at NE (1/16). He also registered 13 tackles in the game. The reliable Thomas finished with 41 tackles, a team-leading six sacks, one pass defensed, one forced fumble and one fumble recovery. It was the first time he led the team in sacks since 2006, when he recorded 8.5. Thomas has played in the second-most postseason games in Jets history (10). Pace missed the first four games of the season due to an injury and finished second on the team in sacks with 5.5. He has recorded sacks in both postseason games this year, they are the first two in his postseason ca-reer. Taylor added five sacks this season to bring his career total to 132.5. He recorded a safety when he tackled PIT RB Mewelde Moore in the end zone (12/19). He registered eight tackles in his first postseason game since 2001 at IND (1/8).

Defensive Backs (10), Returning Starters (1)Coach Dennis Thurman and Jim O’NeilThis group is led by All-Pro Darrelle Revis and limited op-posing teams to a 49.5 completion percentage during the last 13 games of the regular season. In the Wild Card victory at IND (1/8), Revis held the AFC’s leading receiver, Reg-gie Wayne (111-1,355-6), to one catch for one yard. The secondary welcomed three new players: Brodney Pool, who started 12 games and recorded 63 tackles and an intercep-tion on the season; Antonio Cromartie, who finished tied for the team lead with three interceptions; and rookie first-round selection Kyle Wilson, who earned starts in the first three games of the season as well as at CLV (11/14) and BUF (1/2). Dwight Lowery, who tied with Cromartie for the team-lead with three interceptions, moved to safety following a season-ending injury to S Jim Leonhard and made starts at PIT (12/19) and CHI (12/26). In his start at CHI, he inter-cepted and returned a Jay Cutler pass 20 yards for a touch-down. Prior to moving to safety, he clinched the Jets Week Five and Six wins, returning an interception for a touchdown with under 2:00 to play vs. MIN (10/11) and recovering a fumble at DEN (10/17) on the Broncos final play. Fifth-year veteran Drew Coleman began training camp as the sixth corner on the depth chart but has played his way into the rotation, earning starts at BUF (10/3), at DEN (10/17) and at NE (12/6). For the season he had 34 tackles, 5 passes

defensed, 4 sacks, a team-leading 5 FF and recorded the second interception of his career when he sealed the Jets second victory in Week Three at Miami. His second FF came in Week 10, when he stripped CLV WR Chansi Stuckey in overtime. At PIT (12/19), he recorded 10 tackles, two sacks and two FF. Eric Smith, who starts at safety opposite Pool, recorded eight tackles in the Wild Card victory at IND (1/8). The secondary is rounded out with young-veterans Marquice Cole, Emanuel Cook and James Ihedigbo. All four players serve significant roles on special teams. The team placed sixth-year veteran Leonhard on injured reserve with a frac-tured right tibia on 12/4.

Specialists (3), Returning Starter (1)Coach Mike Westhoff and Ben KotwicaThe only player to return in this group is punter Steve Weath-erford, who joined the Jets before the season opener in 2009. His 42 punts inside the opponents’ 20-yard line tied an NFL record set by SF P Andy Lee in 2007 and tied by ARZ P Ben Graham in 2009. He helped the Jets win at PIT (12/19), setting up the Jets final points of the game when he placed a punt at the PIT three. On the ensuing play, LB Jason Taylor tackled PIT RB Mewelde Moore in the end zone for a safety putting the Jets ahead by the final score of 22-17. The Jets welcomed a former Pro Bowl kicker, Nick Folk, this offseason. Folk set a Jets record when he connected on a 56-yard field goal attempt at DEN (10/14). For the sea-son, Folk connected on 30-of-39 field goal attempts. His 30 field goals were tied for the third-most in club history in a single season. He connected on a 36-yard field goal to force a sudden-death period at Detroit (11/7) and made a 30-yard field goal in the extra period for the win. It was the second game-winning field goal of his career, with the first coming at BUF (10/8/07) on Monday Night Football. He connected on his only FG attempt at IND (1/8), a game-winning 32-yard kick with no time remaining. For the first time since 2001, the Jets long snapping duties were not being handled by James Dearth. This season, first-year player Tanner Purdum assumed the role.

*POSTSEASON

DE TREVOR PRYCE (PIT)

Only Bart Scott (14 meetings), has faced the Steelers more than the 12 times Pryce has matched up with them. Of those 12 meetings, three have come in the postseason, includ-ing matchups in his rookie year of 1997 and 2005 while a member of DEN and later in 2008 with BLT.

In his 12 career meetings with Pittsburgh, he has collected 27 tackles, five sacks, one pass defensed and one forced fumble. He has had multiple sacks in two games against the Steelers, first on 10/12/03 with DEN and again on 11/26/06 with BLT.

Pryce, who missed the first Jets/Steelers matchup this sea-son with an injury, will make his debut against Pittsburgh as a Jet on Sunday.

CHARTERED TERRITORYSunday’s game against the Steelers will mark the fifth AFC Conference Championship game for DL Trevor Pryce, one short of the record for active players (six by LB Mike Vrabel). He appeared in the AFC Championship game his first two seasons in the league (1997-98) as a member of the Den-ver Broncos, again with the Broncos in 2005 and then with the Baltimore Ravens in 2008. Pryce holds a 2-2 record in Conference Championship games, winning each of the Super Bowls he advanced to.Perhaps even more remarkable then the number of Confer-ence Championship games in which he has appeared, is Pryce’s opponents in those game. He has faced just two teams, the Pittsburgh Steelers (1997, 2005 & 2008) and the New York Jets (1998), the same two clubs that will be on the field in Sunday’s contest.

Starters Acquired through the Draft (8)DRAFT PICKS: The old adage is that successful NFL teams are built through the draft and while General Manager Mike Tannen-baum 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 GREENEJets 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 SANCHEZJets Receive:2009 1ST Round Pick (#5 – Mark Sanchez)Browns Receive:2009 1ST Round Pick (#17)2009 2ND Round Pick (#52)DE Kenyon ColemanDS Abram ElamQB Brett RatliffTE DUSTIN KELLERJets Receive:2008 1ST Round Pick (#30 – Dustin Keller)Packers Receive:2008 2ND Round Pick (#36)2008 4TH Round Pick (#113)ILB DAVID HARRISJets 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 REVISJets 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 MANGOLDJets Receive:2006 1ST Round Pick (#29 – Nick Mangold)Broncos Receive:2006 1ST Round Pick (#15)Falcons Receive:DE John Abraham2006 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 FERGUSONOriginal 2006 Draft Pick (#4 Overall)

REX RYANREX 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), pass-ing yards per play (4.91), first downs allowed (14.8), third-down conversions allowed (31.5%) and points allowed (14.8).

PETTINE PRIOR

In 2005, Mike Pettine was promoted from Coaching Assis-tant/Quality Control to Outside Linebackers Coach in Balti-more, the same season that current Jets Head Coach Rex Ryan was named the Ravens Defensive Coordinator. Togeth-er 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 Interceptions4th in Turnovers Forced (123)5th in Passing Defense (193.8 yards per game)t-5th in Sacks (168)

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 14 times on kickoff returns. Perhaps even more remarkable than the fact that the Jets lead the league with 14 scores, is that those scores have come from six different players. Leon Washington (4), Justin Miller (3), Brad Smith (3), Chad Morton (2), Jerricho Cotchery (1) and Jonathan Carter (1) have all brought a kick back for a score under Westy.

RYAN LEADS JETS TO BACK-TO-BACK CHAMPIONSHIP GAMES

Head Coach Rex Ryan is only the second head coach to take his team to consecutive championship games in his first two seasons leading a team that had not made the playoffs the year prior to him joining the club. He is now among a group of five head head coaches to earn an appearence in the championship game in consecutive seasons in their first two seasons as a head coach. Below is the list of coaches:

SCHOOLED BY SCHOTTY

Drew Brees (SD 02-05)Schottenheimer arrived in San Diego for Brees’ second sea-son 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 season-ending 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 ac-quired 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 rush-ing 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 di-rect Schottenheimer’s offense in his rookie season and re-sponded 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 quarter-back in the AFC to accomplish that feat since 1970.

JETS NOTES

MARK SANCHEZ

QB Mark Sanchez finished his second Divisional postsea-on game with a win at New England (1/16) connecting on 16-of-25 passes for 194 yards and three touchdowns with no interceptions for a passer rating of 127.3, his second-highest in postseason play. His best mark was 139.4 at CIN (1/9/10). Sanchez opened the 2010 postseason completing 18-of-31 passes for 189 yards during the 17-16 win at IND (1/8). His final completion, an 18-yard pass to WR Braylon Edwards, set up K Nick Folk’s 32-yard field goal for the win. Sanchez has won four postseason games in his first two seasons in the NFL. The four wins are the most by a Jets QB in the postseason. During Week 16 at CHI, Sanchez opened the game by completing 9-of-9 passes for 110 yards, with a passer rating of 117.6. On the Jets second drive, he led the team on an eight-play, 85-yard touchdown drive in which he connected on all five of his passes for 70 yards. Sanchez finished the first half 13-of-15 for 156 yards and a passer rating of 110.0, while leading the offense to score the sec-ond-most points (24) in a quarter since 1995. In the club’s Week 15 win over PIT (12/19), Sanchez became the first Jets quarterback to record a win in the state of Pennsylvania. Sanchez surpassed 3,000 passing yards when he connect-ed with WR Santonio Holmes on a seven-yard pass in the fourth quarter, making him the second-youngest quarterback in Jets history to achieve this feat behind Hall-of-Fame QB Joe Namath. From Week Nine through Week 11, all Jets wins, Sanchez threw for 950 yards on 71-of-121 passing with six touchdowns, three interceptions and an 89.9 rating. In those contests, Sanchez posted the three highest single-game totals for passing yards in his career, throwing for a ca-reer-high 336 yards in an overtime win at DET (11/7), 299 yards in an overtime win at CLV (11/14) and 315 yards vs. HST (11/21). His 100.2 passer rating vs. HST marked the eighth time in his career that Sanchez posted a passer rating of 100-or-more, while his three touchdown passes equaled a career-high, achieved twice previously, most recently at MIA (9/26/10). Sanchez became the first Jets’ QB to start 10-or-more games in consecutive seasons for the same head coach (Rex Ryan) since Ken O’Brien did it under Bruce Coslett in 1991.

100 or GREATER PASSER RATING

MOORE SCHOOL

Did you know that Jets G Brandon Moore spent a portion of his offseason learning from some of the brightest minds at Harvard? Moore took part in the NFL’s Business Manage-ment and Entrepreneurial Program at the Harvard Business School. Moore and 70 other NFL players crammed a semes-ter’s worth of classes into a week-long overview program. The players learned a few fundamentals of the business world, while brainstorming entrepreneurial endeavors and listening to guest speakers. Moore doesn’t intend on hanging up his pads quite yet, but he knows many former NFL play-ers struggle after their playing days and wants to be prepared for the future. “I was asked if going to the Harvard seminar meant I was go-ing to be retiring and opening a restaurant this year,” Moore wrote in a blog on NewYorkJets.com. “No, no, no. I’ve got a bit more mileage on me. You get so locked into being a foot-ball player and into thinking football is the only competitive venue out there. I don’t think I’ll be getting the thrill I get run-

ning out on Sunday against New England. But the program was good, just to see that there are other options out there after leaving the game.”

JETS NOTES

The Jets signed LB Jason Taylor as an unrestricted free agent on April 21, 2010. In 2009, he recorded seven sacks, three FF, five PD, one INT, one FR for a touchdown and 42 tackles with the Miami Dolphins.

TAYLOR WITH THE JETS

”We brought in Jason (Taylor) to give us that pass rush. We knew he could play and rotate in with the other two guys, Calvin (Pace) and BT (Bryan Thomas). He’s a closer. He closes out games. That’s been his history.” Rex Ryan on Jason Taylor• In Week 16, Taylor recorded his fifth sack of the season when he brought down BUF QB Brian Brohm for a loss of zero yards in the fourth quarter. It gave him 132.5 sacks for his career, moving him into a tie for eighth place with Lawrence Taylor and Leslie O’Neal.

• In Week 14, Taylor tackled PIT RB Mewelde Moore in the endzone with 2:45 remaining in the game, recording the second safety of the Jets season, to give the Jets a 22-17 lead. It marked the third safety of Taylor’s career. His first came in 2003 when he tackled SD T Damion McIntosh in the end zone, while his second came in 2005 when he sacked OAK QB Kerry Collins in the end zone.

• Against his former team in Week 13, Taylor recovered the 29th fumble of his career after S Brodney Pool stripped the ball from MIA RB Ronnie Brown.

• In Week 10, Taylor sacked CLV QB Colt McCoy on third-and-eight with 41 seconds left in overtime. The Browns were forced to punt the ball, giving the Jets the ball back and allowing them to score the game-winning touchdown.

• Taylor strip-sacked QB Brett Favre for a loss of three-yards with 1:01 remaining in the fourth quarter in Week Five against MIN.

• In Week Four, Taylor recovered the 28th fumble of his ca-reer at BUF (10/3) after LB Bryan Thomas knocked the ball loose from Bills RB Marshawn Lynch.

• In his return to Miami in Week Three, Taylor sacked Dol-phins QB Chad Henne for a loss of eight yards, making Henne the 67th different quarterback to be taken down by Taylor.

• Taylor closed his first game for the Jets in Week Two when he strip-sacked Patriots QB Tom Brady with 4:15 left in the fourth quarter and the Jets leading 28-14. Taylor finished the game with five tackles and a QB hurry in addition to the sack and forced fumble.

SACK LEADER

The six-time Pro Bowler (2000, 02, 04, 05, 06 and 07) joined 2009 NFL’s top-ranked defense to wreak havoc on the league’s quarterbacks. Taylor is currently tied for eighth on the NFL’s All-Time Sack list and his 132.5 sacks give him the most of any active NFL player.

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 (2005-08) at the helm of the Ravens defense, which was consid-ered 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 Cava-naugh, 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.

TRULY “SPECIAL” TEAMS

KICKIN IT WITH FOLKNick 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. In 2010, Folk has scored 127 points, connecting on 30-of-39 field goal at-tempts with a long of 56 yards. In Week Six at DEN, Folk set a new career high and franchise record when he converted a 56-yard field goal. A week earlier on Monday Night Football (10/11 vs. MIN), Folk set a new single-game career high, when he connected on all five of his field goal attempts vs. MIN (10/11). Addi-tionally, he has made all 37 of his PAT attempts.His 30 made field goals in 2010 tie him for the third most in a single season in Jets history with Jay Feely, who did it in 2009.

GAME WINNERS FOR FOLKIn the Jets 17-16 win over the Colts in the Wild Card game (1/8), Folk connected on the game-winning 32-yard field goal with no time remaining. His game-winning kick was the first by a Jets kicker in the last two minutes of regulation or overtime in the postseason since Doug Brien connected on a 28-yard field goal in San Diego (1/8/05). Folk also con-nected on two extra point attempts. Earlier in the season, Folk made his second-career game-winning field goal when he connected on a 30-yard field goal in overtime to give the Jets a 23-20 victory at DET (11/7/10). Folk also made a 36-yard field goal as time ex-pired to force the extra period. Folk connected on a 31-yard field goal in the second quarter to start the Jets scoring. Folk scored 11 of the team’s 23 points. His first game-winning kick came on a 53-yard attempt at BUF (10/8/07) on Mon-day Night Football.

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 in 2009. But just like Brad Smith, Eric Smith is also called upon for a big play from time to time.

For the second time in two seasons, Eric Smith blocked a punt attempt when he got to Brandon Fields in the third quarter at MIA (9/26/10), allowing the Jets to take over pos-sesion at the Miami 17-yard line. Smith’s first blocked punt came last season when he blockeda Chris Hanson punt that Brad Smith scooped up for a four-yard touchdown at NE (11/22/10). Smith also blocked a Matt Dodge punt in the preseason against the Giants (8/16/10).

WR/QB/RB BRAD SMITHBrad Smith’s contributions to Mike Westhoff’s special teams unit have ranged from solid to spectacular. The solid came from his 20 tackles on special teams last season, ranking

him fourth on the team. The spectacular came on his two special teams touchdowns, the team’s only two special teams scores last season. He scored the Jets first special teams touchdown when he picked up an Eric Smith blocked punt and walked in for a touchdown, and he scored again after racing 106 yards with the second-half kickoff against the Indianapolis Colts in a must-win game in week 16. In 2010, Smith has proven to be a game-changer. For the season he has has thrown a touchdown, recorded two kickoff returns for touchdowns (97 at PIT 12/19 and 89 vs. CIN 11/25) and registered a 53-yard touchdown run. Smith ranked second in the NFL in kickoff return average.

ONLY BRADWR Brad Smith is the only player in the modern era (since 1933) to have scored touchdowns in each of the following ways:Receiving (2), Rushing (2), Kickoff Return (3), Blocked Punt Return (1) and Passing (1)In Week 14, Smith returned the opening kickoff 97 yards for a touchdown. It was the first time the Jets opened a game with a kickoff return for a touchdown since Leon Washington returned a kick 86 yards for a score against WAS (11/4/07)In Week 12, Smith became the third player in NFL history with an 80-plus yard KOR for a touchdown and 50-plus yard rush for a touchdown in the same game after he scored on a 53-yard run and an 89-yard kickoff return. The only other players to accomplish the feat are Brian Mitchell (2000) and Dominic Rhodes (2001).For the season Smith finished with 38 rushes for 299 yards and one touchdown. He also caught four passes for 44 yards.

STEVE WEATHERFORDP Steve Weatherford tied an NFL season record, placing 42 punts inside of the opponents 20.In Week 15, he placed three punts inside of the Steelers 10-yard line, two inside of the five. On his third punt of the day, Weatherford’s punt was downed by CB Marquice Cole at the Steelers’ three-yard line. On Pittsburgh’s ensuing play, LB Jason Taylor tackled RB Mewelde Moore in the end zone for a safety. The score put the Jets ahead 22-17.With the game still in reach, Weatherford placed his fourth and final punt of the day on the Steelers eight-yard line, forc-ing Pittsburgh to drive 92 yards for the go-ahead score. The Jets defense held the Steelers offense to 82 yards on that final drive and preserved the Jets 22-17 victory.
