If last night was a regular season game

who would have won? If Smith, Stewart and Otah had started with Munnerlyn returning punts in place of Edwards, who do you think would have won. In other words, look at the first quarter, take away the fumbles and add Smith, Stewart and Otah into the offense and how do you think the game would have faired?.

Does Smith catch some of those "drops" and would the Jets have scored without the fumbles?

Looking at it like that, does last night still look so bad? After all, some "experts" are picking the Jets to go to the SB.

Just asking

I thought the same thing last night. Personally, IDK. QB play was "eh". Run game was great (as usual). Defense played well, overall. Special teams were...well, special teams in Carolina. Granted, I thought they were a little better (but not much) last night. It's iffy. But there is a possibility, if only because the defense did such a good job.

It's impossible to tell as it would completely change the dynamic of the game. Yeah we'd have Smitty back, but they'd have Revis too.

The Jets aren't as good as advertised. Big market, some talented players and an upcoming QB is a perfect formula for a lot of hype. They won't make it to the suberbowl.

why would anyone spend time speculating about the outcome of a practice game? Baffles my mind.........

If Revis was on the field then it wouldnt have mattered f Steve Smith had played or not.

Doesn't mean we couldn't have won. We still ran the ball well w/ D-will, and add Stewart to that mix. And Shanchise would have thrown a few picks had he played the entire game. 5-10 12 yards.

It was obvious that we didn't have anything to counteract the blitz the last 2 weeks. But I believe if we had Smitty, Stewart and Otah back that we could have used them(smitty especially) to counter that and make them pay. After getting burned a couple of times they would have backed off on the blitzing. Since we didn't have those guys we are vulnerable to the rush because other teams feel they can cover any of our rec 1 on 1.

IMHO

If it was all starters vs. starters, the Jets likely would have won all things considered. Especially if you give them Revis back. He automatically shuts down one side of the passing game and considering both of our quarterbacks just locked onto targets all night, it would have been even more forced turnovers via the passing game.

The answer is obvious: the Panthers would've won.

I would have liked to think so, but I'm not sure. The game would have been different but I feel that the Jets are a little ahead of us at this point. Special teams would have cost us the game. That's the part of this team that EVERYONE should be worried about. The offense will straighten itself out in time.

I can see speculation on Baltimore or Pittsburgh who we will actually pllay this year in the regular season but not the Jets who we wouldn't see unless it is in the post season. Even then we won't be the same team we are now in the 10 game of the year for example. So this kind of speculation is actually useless. Just like speculating on whether Smith would beat Revis or the other way around. I don't know if Revis will even play this year. Since he isn't getting paid what he wants it will be up to him to back down if he is smart.

      With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.

      Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.

      Jeremy Fowler: Panthers draft day intel

      Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
