Fan article about mismatches favoring the Jets

We clearly have the better team assuming Darnold is average. The Jets are down a starting LT, DE, and WR, not to mention more of their players may come down with COVID. They're also starting a rookie QB and that is almost always rough for any team. We're holding all the cards in this matchup. If we lose that means Darnold is a poop disaster and we're headed toward a horrific season. The Jets are the worst of the teams we'll play.

Barring any setbacks I think Becton should be cleared come game time.

Lol. It’s funny how “offended” people get, but I was thinking the same thing. The article was only about the Jets advantages, that’s it. Davis against Horn was the only one I paused at because I don’t think much of Davis. He’s not a legit #1.

I agree. Not sure how much of an "advantage" that particular matchup will be. It's mostly based off historical performance of rookie CBs vs anything Davis has really done. While the stats are informative, you know what they say about historical performance not being a good indicator of future results.

If you think about it, it make a lot of sense there is no mention of CMC in an article listing potential matchup advantages for the Jets. CMC is clearly a mismatch favoring you guys.

That's fair.

I think our OL is.....well...not great. It's full on worrisome.

That said, our OL > Jets OL.

Also...their DL vs our OL is a concern, but our DL vs their OL?

They seem to think that Becton and that other guy they have will stop our DL or something.

He also did the flip side for us 

https://jetsxfactor.com/2021/09/04/carolina-panthers-mismatches-ny-jets/

1. DJ/Robby vs Jets DBs

2. CMC vs Jets LBs

3. Moton in the run game

4.  Brown inside

5.  Burns off the edge 

but I would assume people would feel he is 100% right about all these though 

OH!   So he did do the flip side.    I was not aware of that as the only article put up was for one side.  *ahem* *ahem*

Honestly, he could have kept going. 

6. Jones Inside.. vs Van Roten

7. Reddick of the edge

8. Chinn at safety/everywhere on the field. 

9. Summerize Donte Jackson's second half of last season assuming he plays at that same level or even further develops...i.e as he did with Derrick Brown. 

10. Terrance Marshall - If two day 3 rookies end up being their #2... not only do you have to worry about Anderson but also Marshall. Specifically vertical and in the red zone game. 

I could continue ... a two TE set with Arnold and Tremble w/ McCaffrey on the field. Sam Darnold knowing most of their roster and tendencies... Shaq on the blitz. The intel we're probably getting from that Qb we signed. All of which will create mismatches. That's either common sense for us or homerism. 

Plenty of advantages on Carolina's end, for sure.

Glad you mentioned that.  He did a fine job of evening out the mismatches both teams might have, and backed his opinions up with metrics that show deep analysis on his part, not just the usual.  I enjoyed his takes.  Many here jumped to the early conclusion that he was just a Jets' homer, writing a puff piece.  Not so.

 

He wasn't predicting a winner; I am.  Big offensive performance for us, vs their overmatched corners and LBs -- Panthers 41, Jets 10.

Yeah well it didn't help that when this thread was created, the only article linked was an article listing the advantages from ONLY the Jets perspective.    Don't blame us for reacting accordingly to that.

Bingo. He was very much grasping at straws for anything....and it was pretty much all anecdotal reasons. The reasons why we should win this game are legit and many.... Which is why, if we lose, the meltdown that happens I will very much be a part of.

Not only is this a should win, it's a must win because if we don't them something is REALLY wrong here.

And I would also be banning all of the "I told you so" crowd, just out of spite and because I can.

-signed, the "you don't want me pissed off" mod who doesn't care what you think 😊

I have doubts this will happen.

But that's just it, though.

The thread-starter put that up and how the hell were we supposed to react to that other than think it was a one-sided thing? 🤨

After all, it came from a NY JETS fan website so pardon us for assuming it was just pure homerism on display.

Glad it's not and they had another article made but that's not what this thread was initially about.

We are high on Jaycee was there is an argument to be made he has never played a better receiver than he will this week. That will happen a few times this year but this is the first. Luke Keuchley had an up and down first few games as a Panthers so it's not hard to imagine Jaycee having the same.

Our run defense sucked last year. Shaq in an ok linebacker but he's never been close to what TD and Luke were so it's not the worst point to make.

Yea I don’t really get the point of this thread- was expecting to read some standard Jets garbage, but all of his points were pretty well reasoned and backed up with stats. If anything it now has me thinking that our Oline may be worse than the jets last year, which would probably be the worst we’ve ever fielded. Thanks a lot OP

    • Then don't tune in. It's really not a hard concept to understand, if your making your decision based on your own personal needs/feelings as opposed to what is best for the future of the franchise, then it's a you problem, not a Panthers problem. When the season is already lost, every fan should be rooting for the same thing.  The team plays hard until the final whistle of the season and keeps improving as a team and individually, but in the end, we still come up short and lose games, and preferably because the other team beat us, not because we screwed up and found a way to lose due to our own fault. Look at it this way... If we are up 1 or 2 points with 3 seconds left in the game and the other team is lining up for a FG.  Beyond the joy of victory or the disappointment of defeat, what impact does the other team making or missing the FG have on our team the following season? ABSOLUTELY NOTHING Except where we draft and what teams we play due to our finish in the division. The players and coaches on the team would have the exact same level of improvement and learnings about themselves individually and as a team whether the FG is made or missed.  The ONLY difference in the end is the record in the standings and if the win or loss number changes. If you want to argue if making the playoffs to lose in the first round or just missing them is better or worse, that's totally fair and I can at least understand the other side of it.  But in what is already a lost season, if you're not hoping your team plays well but ends up losing, then you're cutting off your nose to spite your face.  You're hoping for a moment of happiness at the detriment of the franchise's future, and in turn, you're basically then happy for a moment to only set yourself up for future further disappointment.
    • If we’re eliminated I want the wins more.   The season is already a disappointment and if I’m not pulling for wins why bother to tune in?
    • Two things terribly wrong with this post. First is that not one time has myself or anyone else agreeing with me said that the team themselves should think that way or try and lose for positioning.  Never once have I suggested the team should purposefully lose games, ever.  I honestly can't understand why people keep saying this in posts, not one fan has ever said the players should or would purposefully try to lose. And second, is yes, that has happened and it's happened very recently.  The 2020 Bengals were 4-11-1 and then were playing in the SB the very next season.   And while it might have been 2 years later and they didn't quite get to the SB, the 2021 Lions were 3-13-1 and then the 2023 Lions were up 24-7 at halftime of the NFC Championship game. The season between those two? They finished 9-8 and only just missed the playoffs. Which is why I keep trying to compare us to the Lions in where we are at in our re-build.  Throw out Bryce's rookie year with the Reich staff who just didn't work out and he looked god awful.   This past season when we were 5-12 in Canales' 1st season is that 2021 season for the Lions and their 1st season under Campbell.  This year is their 2022 where they grew a ton and Campbell's culture building was clear, where I'm saying we'd likely be better off in the long run if we go 8-9 or 9-8 and just miss out on the playoffs (which is still a significant improvement from last year).  Then our 2026 is their 2024 when we have a chance to be a real contender after adding a few more pieces and our key players having another year of experience under their belts.
