Grading the Jets: A breakdown of their surprising first half

It's that time of the year -- midseason analysis. Let's start with a report card for the New York Jets (4-5):

Quarterback: B+

Many observers (including me) figured Josh McCown would be injured or benched by now, but he has exceeded expectations. With a 70.4-percent completion mark, he's on pace to set the franchise record for a season. The Jets knew he had it in him, but they weren't sure if the 38-year-old would be able to stay healthy. He ranks 19th with a 51.0 Total QBR, ahead of quarterbacks such as Cam Newton, Eli Manning and Philip Rivers.
