The Ryan brothers are talking

he won't need a drew brees to get enough points to beat us.

 

we scored 13 points and 7 of those points was essentially garbage time. the game was out of hand by that point.

 

if rex improves on his brother's model (which, being the smarter of the two could be the case) we'd be lucky to score 10 unless we really fix some things dramatically. all the jets need to do is put up a couple of TDs and they could win it and all those points wouldn't have to come from the offense.

 

it's not surprising that they'd do this and i think this could be a huge deal. if i were this coaching staff, i would essentially treat this as us facing the same defense three weeks in a row...at least strategically. this is no time to play it safe.

Sure.  Has Rex already ordered that a roof be placed atop Bank of America stadium by Sunday afternoon, and arranged for about 70K idiots dressed as clowns with gay umbrellas and pope hats to fill the stadium, along with a speaker system to generate articifical crowd noise?

 

If so, I'll give him a fighting chance.

We see Geno in for a tough day down in NOLA.  The only thing holding back the Jets from being a good team is at QB.  The rest of the team is pretty solid.  If they can run on you, then it's trouble.  We lost cause of some really poor play with our WR's. Colston and Sproles was out of the game as well.

If we can't score on the Jets, well, we may as well pack it up now.

 

The Bengals dropped 49 on them, the Bills put up 37, the Raiders 27, even the Dolphins put 23 on the board against them.

 

Our defense should rebound, and handle business on that side. But there is no reason that we can't put up points on the Jets.

    • Ok fair to judge only his starts.  But you do acknowledge that going from "he's waaaay above league average in a number of categories" to "here's a single stat where he's above league average (not "waaaay") and another where he is exactly at the league average" is a pretty significant backpedal, no?  I'm guessing he's probably in the ~10th range for completion percentage too if we're only looking at starts (I'm too lazy to isolate his starts and do the calculations), so I'll grant you that one too.  But I don't think completion percentage is all that meaningful as a standalone stat if it isn't bolstered by good TD%, Y/A, etc. On that note, for how much people like posting Passing Charts in here (*cough* CRA) - if you peep Shough's passing charts, he hasn't completed a single 20+ yard pass in the past 3 games combined.  His last one was in Week 13 against the Dolphins, which was a single pass of 24 yards.  I just want to be consistent in how we apply our standards - I think it's always been warranted to criticize Bryce for it (even dating back to his rookie season), but do we suddenly not care about that with Shough? And yeah I did acknowledge that Saints' fans have reason to be excited about him and complimented his poise, which is giving my props.  Still not sure I agree that he looks better than a "ton" of QBs nor do I think you or anyone have really demonstrated that.  I think you are generally one of the more reasonable level-headed posters which is why I'm confused at what I consider to be rather hyperbolic language about Shough.
    • I don't disagree with you, but want to point out that Tremble's strong suit has always been blocking. Case and point: on Horn's 25 yard run, he lays down not 1 but 2 nice blocks...and is looking for #3! https://www.panthers.com/video/jimmy-horn-jr-s-25-yard-run-gives-panthers-red-zone-access-on-first-drive
    • It is a popularity contest.  The selection does have meaning though. It is also 1 of the criteria that is considered for the HOF. The game does not have any significance. The team hasn't been to the playoffs in nearly a decade. That's why they don't get primetime national coverage. To the victors go the spoils.
