I think this narrative that the Jets somehow game planned and did all this extra stuff....is largely just a fanbase coping with the fact the unreal expectations are already having to come down a bit so soon. 

They stunted.  That's a pretty vanilla aspect to a DL.  You practice that like everything else. I'm pretty sure the Jets even did it practice that week.   It's like a QB pump faking and claiming that is unfair to do in a preseason game.  Claiming that's gameplanning because your DB bought hard on it.

This has been going on for ages on here after a preseason loss. "Oh ... well of course we lost. We were playing basic as basic gets and they were playing Playoffs level ball." EVERY. SINGLE. TIME.

I think the Jets O-line will be what holds them back this year. They are in much worse shape than us. I think we will be ok once the season actually starts. 
 

Also, if I remember correctly, we scored in the final 2-minute drills with all starters, and they didn’t. Just throwing it out there.

That's probably deliberate.

Bullshit

 

The producers of a hbo show under a hard deadline working with a 5ish day window isn't editing under the premise of making the carolina panthers look bad.  That's just moronic to even insinuate

I'm getting the Bills vibe from last year with the Jets. They have been the #1 story of the off-season. They added all this talent, but people seem to forget Aaron Rodgers is damn near 40 and for whatever reason his game never lives up to the hype come playoffs.

 

I just don't see how they can get through the AFC. I'm certainly not picking them over Mahomes or Burrow. 

 

Wish them luck, but I feel the media is over hyping them.

That defense is legit though, top 5 for sure. That goes a long way

Bro they're editors. I've not watched Hard Knocks ever nor the last preseason game but editing things to look more dramatic and/or heroic and to make someone look worse is editing for tv 101.

The producer isn’t working to make the Panthers look bad correct. However, the Jets do have a much heavier hand in what is allowed to be shown and the final edit than in years past.

    • It's amazing how much yall can say the same things over and over and not annoy yourselves with it.
    • If you only look at measurables, Mingo and Legette might seem similar.  But when you actually look at them and watch them play, they aren't close to the same.   And this is coming from someone who is skeptical about Legette, although ultimately I believe he will work out.  I've just always disagreed with the comparisons to Mingo.   Mingo tests better than he plays/runs, whereas Legette plays/runs as well as he tests.  
    • As bad as things were with the Panthers last year, we still had 4 other games outside of the 2 we won that we came very close to winning.  Could throw the Falcons game in there too, it was tied going into the 4th. I'm not really sure what to expect this year.  I don't think we'll make the playoffs.  However, we play in a very weak division where no team has a standout QB.  On paper, our OL should be good, and could be great if Ikem improves.  That alone could help mask a lot of problems on offense.  Should allow us to run the ball better.  Even if Bryce doesn't improve, the OL should at the very least give him more time to make the easy throws underneath and let a guy like Legette work his magic after the catch. And I think this defense in a 2nd year with Evero should, at the very least, be in the top 16.  I'm expecting our run defense to be as good as it has been in years. I think this team could push for 7-8 wins.  But it could also finish with 2 wins again.  That is just how the league works.  Jets offense was miserable last year, and yet they still won 7 games.   We won't really get a good feel of it until after the preseason, and even then, who knows.
