Who prepares for an effing preseason game?

Exactly. To me, it seems like Frank expected much more vanilla play and not stunts being run the entire game. But again, the o line should he able to pick up a basic stunt.

Could be some disconnect between reporters and players.  Reporters talk about the Bryce pass….Jets players acknowledging in reality that play never likely gets off if they could go after Bryce. 

I agree to an extent, but sometimes saying you got a sack cause you got close doesn't exactly reflect reality either.

Problem with playing a team on Hard Knocks. I guarantee if this was a normal joint practice and preaseason game it probably would have been more vanilla. But the Jets gotta show out for the camera.

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. it was a damn practice game. it was our first. it was an evaluation. and it was against a team that felt it needed to have a win before winning actually matters.

the whole damn thing was basically a sucker punch. so congrats to the jets on their "win".

i hope y'all fall flat on your faces.

We embarrassed them in joint practice where it matters the most, they out schemed us (lol) in a preseason game. 

Lets wait for the real games to see if the sky is falling. 

I mean, even Aaron Rodgers was giggling and had to go to his toes on the "sacks" they were counting in practice against our O.  Not sure we embarrassed them as bad was a painted here. 

We had our moments yeah, but it might of been understated how well the Jets dealt with our OL in practice simply because ESPN and the likes wanted to focus on Rodgers getting frustrated when we caused some problems.

Well our OL in practice featured Cam Erving getting beat like a drum by several different guys. Hopefully he doesnt have to see the field in the regular season. By all accounts we did much better in the practice sessions than in the game that the Jets schemed for and we didnt.

      Brooks RB, Placed on PUP, Out for 2025

      By SCO96 · Posted

      If we were a solid winning organization most of us would have no problems with this selection. We would have had a capable starter in place to allow him to be eased into the rotation. If were told prior to the draft that he had been completely cleared health wise, we "probably" wouldn't have a ton of reservations about this selection. If we had picked this young man on Day 3 of the draft most of us would have no problems with this selection because we wouldn't have had to use draft capital to move up and get him. Unfortunately, none of the above were true 1)  We were a terrible team in 2024 and needed an immediate impact player. 2)  He was hurt near the the end of the 2023 season. We traded up to get him even though we knew he wasn't medically cleared to play in 2024. 3) When training camp started we were hearing stories that the knee wasn't ready. That alone should have raised some red flags. I personally would have red-shirted him in 2024 in order to have him ready for 2025. We had Chubba as our lead back and other guys to fill the #2 and #3 spots on the depth chart. There was no need to rush Brooks unto the field in 2024. Here's our draft history in the 2nd round between 2021 and 2024 2021 TMJ 2022 No draft choice. We picked Matt Corall in round 3 (#94) as our only Day 2 pick. 2023 Jonathan Mingo 2024 Jonathon Brooks. We have taken 4 skill players on Day 2 of the draft for the past 4 years who have contributed absolutely nothing to the offensive side of the football. 3 are no longer on the team. Two of them are no longer in the NFL. One  could possibly never start a game due to a knee injury. This type of poor drafting is why this team has been so bad for the entire decade.

      Clowney released

      By Waldo · Posted

      Even limited as he was I still don't think they have replaced his production, and not just the sack stats. The games Clowney missed it was very obvious what his value still was. Risky move but whatever. They only had 32 sacks last year and if that drops then it's going to get ugly. I see the improvement in run stopping but not in pass protect in any way.
