Clever nicknames and television cameos aside, the ever-focused New York Jets coach faces a big challenge following a 10-6 season and a surprising playoff appearance. ``Each year is its own entity,'' Mangini said early in training camp. ``You have to do the same things every camp, every step of the way, to achieve the same |

HEMPSTEAD, N.Y. (AP) -The New York Jets moved linebacker Matt Chatham from the active-physically unable to perform list to the reserve-PUP list Tuesday. By being placed on the reserve-PUP list, Chatham can't practice with the team or play during the first six weeks of the regular season. Chatham has been hobbled by a foot injury and didn't participate in training camp or minicamp. Chatham had 34 tackles, including 15 on special teams, while playing in every game in his first season with New York. He s |

HEMPSTEAD, N.Y. (AP) -Kellen Clemens realizes he'll be back to wearing a cap and holding a clipboard soon enough. For now, the New York Jets' backup quarterback wants to keep showing he can lead the offense. It's unclear how much - or if - starter Chad Pennington will play against Philadelphia on Thursday night, so that could mean even more playing time for Clemens. ``This is a big game,'' Clemens said Tuesday. ``This will be the last chance that I know that I have a pretty good chance of playing.

HEMPSTEAD, N.Y. (AP) -Chad Pennington and the New York Jets' first-team offense are struggling with short drives, bad decisions and costly mistakes. With less than two weeks before the regular-season opener against New England, the Jets quarterback isn't concerned - yet. ``Just because the preseason games maybe haven't gone as well as we would have liked, I don't think we need to push the panic button,'' Pennington said Monday. Sure, it's only preseason and the Jets have been without running back Th |

The Patriots open the regular season Sept. 9 against the New York Jets. ``We'll take it day by day, like anything else,'' Belichick said. Samuel was not available for comment Monday.
