2016 NBA Dunk Contest Might Be Best To Date
The 2016 NBA dunk contest had to be the best one to date so far. The showdown between Minnesota Timberwolves' guard Zach Lavine and Orlando Magic's small forward Aaron Gordon was nothing short of amazing. These two young guys (both age 20), put on the greatest dunk contest of all time in my opinion. Their duel seemed more exciting and more creative than that of the 1988 Slam Dunk Contest between Michael Jordan and Dominique Wilkins in which many refer to as the greatest dunk contest of all time. What do you think?
After the showdown between Lavine and Gordon Saturday night many famous people and athletes went to social media to express how they felt. Many people were saying Aaron Gordon got robbed out of the win causing a huge social media controversy. Either way it was up to the judges to make that call and I am sure pretty much everyone can agree this was the greatest slam dunk contest of all time.

What's New for the Jets?
The New York Jets are going to have to make big decisions this 2016 off season. There is some HUGE impact players whose contracts are up and will be headed into free agency, These include defensive end Muhammed Wilkerson, QB Ryan Fitzpatrick, 2016 prow bowl running back Chris Ivory, RB Bilal Powell, OLB and long time veteran Calvin Pace, and defensive tackle Damon Harrison. The Jets haven't signed any of these players back yet and Jets fans are awaited on huge decisions for next year as they try to decide to keep their QB or head in another direction. The Jets also have to decide on whether or not signing star DT Muhammed Wilkerson back who suffered a broken leg against the Bills week 17. I will now keep my followers up to date with all things Jets and all things sports with the 2016 football season now over. Big things to come.

Jets End Their Season With Loss to Buffalo Bills
The Jets head into week 17 against former Head Coach Rex Ryan. It is a must win for the Jets as they could be guaranteed a playoff spot with a win against the Bills. The Bills recently defeated the Jets in week 10 of the regular season 22-17. In the very first quarter the Jets hold the Bills to a third down on their opening drive but they convert it for a first down. On the next set of downs, the Jets stop the Bills offense to a 3rd and 3. Bills QB Tyrod Taylor can't find a receiver but he evades the Jets defense and scrambles for a first down and more. Tyrod Taylor puts the Bills on top 7-0 in the first quarter after his 18 yard touchdown run. The Bills stop the Jets offense on the following drive and they march all the way down to the Jets 3 yard line. The Jets tough defensive front stops them and brings up fourth down. Head Coach Rex Ryan decides to risk it all and go for it on fourth down. Tyrod Taylor hands the ball off to RB Karlos Williams and he fights for the first down and more. The Bills go up 13-0 on the Jets after Karlos Williams' touchdown run. The Bills miss the extra point on the following play. On the next Jets drive, pro bowl RB Chris Ivory breaks out for a huge 45 yard run. The following play is a deep 25 yard pass from QB Ryan Fitzpatrick to Brandon Marshall. QB Ryan Fitzpatrick then fires a 15 yard touchdown strike to WR Brandon Marshall. The Bills go up 19-10 after three straight field goals late in the third quarter. With one minute left in the third, QB Fitzpatrick steps up in the pocket avoiding a sack and delivers a nice 23 yard touchdown pass to WR Eric Decker. The score is now 19-10. The Jets battle back in the fourth quarter with a touchdown but later fall to the Bills 22-17 crushing their playoff chances for the season. It was a very tough loss for every Jets fan because they went 10-6 and didn't make the playoffs due to ex head coach
Rex Ryan and the 8-8 Buffalo Bills.
Here's what QB Ryan Fitzpatrick had to say after wrapping up his first season with the Jets, "It's the hardest and most difficult end to a season I have ever had," Fitzpatrick said. "There's not a whole lot of talking in there right now. It's hard to come up with words." It was clearly a very tough loss for QB Ryan Fitzpatrick whose contract is up following this season and the Jets have to decide if they want him back. Fitzpatrick had a very good season although he threw three interceptions in the fourth quarter against the Bills. The 10-6 Jets look to rebuild this off season after an upsetting result to their season.

Jets Could Enter Playoffs After Huge Win Against The Pats
As I was watching this game in the Dominican Republic I heard the announcers say that the Baltimore Ravens just defeated the Steelers due to QB Ryan Mallet's impressive display of passing. As soon as I hear the announcers announce that the cameras start shaking as Metlife stadium erupts. The Jets fans know that if they can pull out this win there playoff chances are pretty much a lock as long as they can beat Rex Ryan's Buffalo Bills next week. Jets pull out the win by an impressive game winning drive coming off of Quincy Enunwa's 33 yard reception and then a great play call out of the shotgun formation. Fitzpatrick scrambles to the right and finds Decker in the corner of the end zone. Decker places his two feet in bounds and the officials rule it a touch down. Metlife stadium erupts as the Jets grab the 26-20 win in over time and WR Eric Decker jumps into the stands and celebrates with some fans.

Jets Week 13
Jets VS Giants Week 13
By- Cooper Van Wagner

The Jets came into MetLife stadium away instead of home for once against their home town rival Giants. Many people were calling it the battle of New York or the MetLife Bowl, but either way the Jets came out victorious. It was not a pretty win, but it got it done. Both of these teams came into the game knowing it would be the most important game of the season not only because they were rivals, but because they were both in playoff contention and needed this win to get a spot in the playoffs. The Jets entered the game without two of their star players this year, cornerbacks Marcus Williams who is leading the league in interceptions and their legend lock down corner Darrelle Revis. What everyone wanted to watch was the key matchup of Odell Beckham Jr. vs Darrelle Revis, but it could not happen. The Jets started off the game very ugly as they usually do if you're a Jets fan you know the feeling. The Jets were leading 3-0, then on a horribly punt covered play Duane Harris returned it 80 yards to the house making the game 7-3. Josh Brown kicked a field goal and Odell Beckham Jr. broke a tackle and had a 72 yard touchdown putting the Jets in a bad place down 17-3. Fitzpatrick finally got some protection on one of the final drives of the half and drove it down to the red zone leading to a beautiful Bilal Powell screen pass touchdown. The final drive of the half Will Tye had a 45 yard reception and led to another Josh Brown field goal making it 20-10 at half and leaving me very disappointed.
And so the second half begins with a Giants 3 and out a Jets three and out then the Giants killing 8 minute drive into the 4th quarter. During this 8 minute drive the Jets defense continually stopped them, gave up flags leading them right to the red zone. Tom Coughlin makes one of the worst calls I've seen all year and goes for it up 10 on 4th down instead of kicking a gimme field goal. This led to a HUGE Rontez Miles interception sparking the Jets to a drive down field that went for a field goal. The Jets stopped them at about the 2 minute warning without using any timeouts and had all 3 for their final drive in which they tied it up with a jump ball Brandon Marshall touch down his 9th of the season, he also achieved 1,000 yards on the season this week.
In over time the Jets got the ball first drove down kicked a field goal, Odell kicks a dropped ball after the play, gets a flag, jets stop Giants in 3 downs. Josh Brown misses 48 yard field goal his first miss of the year and the Jets win in an amazing comeback game.
