Dallas definitely pissed it away, but the Jets made the plays when it mattered. And for what it's worth, Cromartie let go of an INT in the endzone, and Sanchez gift-wrapped Dallas a touchdown as well.
Absolutely true. For so many years it felt like the whole team would will themselves to lose the close ones and you could always feel it coming from a mile away. These days, even when things look really bad I still find myself feeling hopeful, like somehow they can still pull it off, and they usually do. It's amazing how that's changed - it's awesome.
The fact that you can find a specific point in time when our fortune has turned completely crushes the "luck" theory and instead attributes it to having a well run football team. Luck is random, not a constant. Thank you Rex Ryan.
