We will see a lot of Jets Second teamers on Saturday Night

The team’s number twos are getting punishment for not playing well in the Monday night game for the Jets: more playing time.

After playing his starters for the entire first half, Rex Ryan admitted that the first-teamers will play for only one quarter in the second preseason game in Carolina Saturday. The coach wasn’t thrilled with his second-team defense, which gave up 21 points, 256 yards and 10 first downs in the second half. The Giants’ yards per play jumped from 3.7 in the first half to 10.2 after intermission.

While I'm excited to see our team take the field Saturday night, I have to say I am pretty much sick of Jets this and Jets that. I've never been a fan of either NY/NJ team, but man, the Jets crap is a bit thick this year.

Favre, Jets, Haynesworth, edgy Jets, Favre, Jets, Jets, Rex Ryan, Jerry Jones, Jets, Favre. There, I've summed up ESPN and the NFL Networks programming this week. Blah, Blah, Blah.

To help out the clueless, this is the general norm for all preseason games and starters playing time.

Game 1: 1 drive if it leads to a TD or one Full quarter.

Game 2: The entire first half

Game 3: Anywhere from halfway through the 3rd quarter to a full 3 quarters

Game 4: Will not play, unless something really needs fixing.

oh if only we had a coach like rex ryan who called his second teamers out in the media we'd have a lombardi by now

His dad was famous for that, but his ring came as an assistant. As a head coach, he was a flash in the pan early, generally a disaster later.

Coaches like Ryan have a tendency to go that route. When all you ever do is yell and grouch, it loses its effectiveness after a while.

    • A winning record would be nice, but I still have us winning around the 6 to 8 game mark. Realistically we should beat the Jets and Saints, that gets us to 5 wins. After that, we have to face a lot of potential play off teams and our divisional opponents. I think we’ll win 1 or 2 of those games to take us to 6 or 7 wins, perhaps 8 wins if we can spring a further surprise.  Is that enough progress for head coach and QB? I’m not sure, it will depend on performances and output. That said, it’s nice to be back in a position where we are thinking about the play offs.
    • I would tend to agree about not falling into the trap and paying a below average QB, but sometimes situations can “force” a team to pay that QB. For example, if we play ourselves into a 9-8 like record, then what options will we have in the draft? Or do we avoid the draft and trade for or sign someone in free agency?  I’m not convinced by the 2026 QB draft class. There’s some intriguing prospects but no one that really screams “draft me”. I’m not sure we’ve got anyone really that stands out as a trade candidate or free agent signing. So although we might not want to commit a big money contract to Young, him playing well and showing progress might force the team’s hand. 
    • Realistically we would be looking at no more than a mid round pick for Dowdle or Chuba. Are we really that desperate for a mid round pick? Not really. I would much prefer us utilise the two RBs in a 1-2 punch similar to how we used D-Will and Stewart. After all, Bryce is not Drew Brees. He won’t throw for 300+ yards and carry the team consistently as a passer. So having a strong running game with a 1-2 punch will be beneficial to him, and it will also be beneficial to the RBs because we can spell them and not overwork them.
