On offense.

 

1. No more stalled drives. Too many times this team will move the ball to around midfield and then all of a sudden not be able to convert a third down and cost us a chance to at least attempt a field goal.

 

2. Control the clock. Our defense was exhausted last week and it showed on that final drive where the Seahawks played keep away. Part of the problem was Russell's scrambling ability, part of it was their repeating of downs because of a hold call, getting them extra opportunities that ultimately didn't help their cause in scoring points but did require more snaps from our Defense.

 

3. Be willing to take some chances on 4th and short. Obviously this needs to be within reason but if we are just outside of field goal range I'd rather take a chance on converting the first and keeping the drive alive vs punting and gaining 10-20 yards in field position. I wouldn't recommend this every week but their offense does not scare me into thinking those 10 -20 yards will make a huge difference.

 

 

On defense.

 

1. Don't let their run game get going. Stack the box and see what the rookie can do when forced to win the game with his arm.

 

2. Contain Stevie Johnson and don't leave Captian or Josh Thomas on an island against him.

 

3. Wrap up and don't let them dink and dunk us all the way down the field. I have a feeling they are going to want to get their running backs out in open space and see if they can break it on us. The linebackers and safeties need to keep an eye on this and make the tackles on first contact.

throw some weird looks at ej manuel - he'll make mistakes. blitz him but beware of his dumpoffs and blitzes designed to take advantage (since that seems to be his game.)

 

offense needs to score early and often. force manuel to air it out. he'll make mistakes.

 

special teams... don't be fuging stupid.

 

 

do all these and we walk out with a tasty win

oh...if armond smith gets pushed out of bounds again, bench him cause it's only going to happen again.

 

I still don't understand this. We are so inconsistent with handling underperforming players.

 

We just cut Joe Adams after only one season, and didn't even flinch.

i wasn't talking about benching him for the whole season, but for the game on special teams...or at least geting him out of that role where he can get pushed. if that happens three times in two games, we have a problem with either him or him being targetted and not being able to handle it.

 

regardless, it would be a mistake to keep putting him back into a position where things just have a way of going wrong.

When his only job is special teams, skip the benching, say goodbye, and just find someone else to do the job.

 

The whole reason he was supposedly kept over Poole was because he could contribute on special teams, or so we thought. Unless our idea of contribution is getting ejected, and costing us crucial yards late in the game lol.

 

We've had a horrific special teams long enough.

      Best and Worst PFF Grades for Jets Game

      By *FreeFua* · Posted

      Rotating in Chuba was beyond stupid and really hurt our offense overall. We’ve been in a good rhythm the last 6 quarters or so but Canales figured disrupting that with Chuba would be worth it Rico fits this offense so much better than Chuba    As far as grades go I know that ain’t our RB1, starting Center and our supposedly deep WR room and exciting talented young TE in dead last. Weird. I wonder if that has any correlation on QB play  Even that first incomplete ball Bryce threw in the end zone that hit Legette’s hands. Legette had no business being there so early. Legette went into scramble drill when that ball was intended for Coker who led up because of the traffic there

      Yeah Jets have pretty much been in every game they've played and have barely lost to really good teams. They are much better than their record says Imo

      Trade for a QB?

      By LinvilleGorge · Posted

      I kinda just wanna see what the offense can do with a QB who has proven he can move the football in the NFL. If Dalton wasn't a shadow of his former self I'd be fine with him but Father Time has definitely caught up with him. If we start piling up the losses as the schedule gets tougher and the passing offense continues to be anemic that might cast Canales his job and it's worth a very low risk move IMO to at least give him a fighting chance. The thought of yet another Tepper rebuild just isn't at all exciting to me having already seen a few of them. I'm about giving this current guy a fighting chance.
