Sanchez-to-Edwards could be the type of connection the New York Jets count on for years. A lot of it had to do with Sanchez being able to overcome a miserable performance at New Orleans and bouncing back with a solid, turnover-free outing. Having a big new target certainly helped.

| ? Nonsense? The Miami Dolphins don't like the way their wildcat is being belittled. Triggerman Ronnie Brown had a suggestion Wednesday for those who disparage the funky formation: Just stop it and the Dolphins will move on to something else. The New York Jets were less than gracious after they failed to tame the wildcat Monday night in a 31-27 loss at Miami. The Dolphins gained 110 yards with the formation, including 2 on their final play for the winning score with 6 seconds left. Jets coach Rex Ryan d |

FLORHAM PARK, N.J. (AP) -New York Jets wide receiver Jerricho Cotchery missed practice because of a hamstring injury and his status for the team's game against Buffalo is uncertain. Cotchery sat out two days of practice last week, but played at Miami on Monday night and had one catch for 4 yards. Coach Rex Ryan said he's concerned about the injury, and added that Cotchery likely wouldn't practice Thursday.

Though Whitner probably was kidding, it's clear what his intentions are for this coming Sunday, when the stumbling Bills (1-4) travel to face the AFC East-rival New York Jets (3-2). Whitner's already missed two weeks since he tore ligaments in his thumb in a loss to New Orleans, and he's not prepared to miss another. ``My initial thought going into surgery was I wanted to play that week.

NEW YORK (AP) -Rex Ryan arrived back at the New York Jets facility early Tuesday morning and never went home. The Jets coach was too angry about how his defense allowed the Miami Dolphins to pull one out against it Monday night. ``It absolutely was a humbling experience,'' Ryan said of his team's 31-27 loss at Miami. New York's defense had given up three touchdowns in the first four games, but allowed three in the fourth quarter against Miami and blew three leads in the second half. Miami did it w |

Henne's toss hit Ted Ginn Jr. in stride, two steps behind the New York Jets' secondary near the goal line. Suddenly the Dolphins had a touchdown, and a keeper at quarterback. The 53-yard pass from Henne to Ginn was hardly the only highlight during a wild fourth quarter Monday night, when the lead changed hands five times |
