New York Jets Thread

Gamepass, no brainer, there hasn't been a blackout on it in my 4 (I think) years of using it, maybe longer. If you're on holiday in Brazil you can get it for €65, such good value. It's not going to be much of an issue for us this year, but when we're scheduled late or Thurs/Mon games I can't watch live, Gamepass has 3 or 4 options for watching it the next day full broadcast, game in 40 (removes all stoppages) and highlights only. It's the easiest recommendation to make these days imo, a couple of years ago they had some crashing issues but touch wood all good now.

Just wondering how are people going to watch Jets games live this year. My go to option from last season has been shutdown. I know we cant discuss anything illegal here so if anyone has any legal options please post them (other options please PM me). I would be interested in peoples experience with game pass in Ireland as there is an asterisk that says blackouts may apply in UK and Ireland.

The 2 early games sky show on Sunday (1800 & 2130) use to have a blackout applied to them, but since the new crowd took over they've showed all games

Just back from holidays in Brazil. Thanks to all for advice on where to go! Just waiting patiently for the game tomorrow now.

Until the first drive ends on our own 17 yard line and 4th and 21.

Looks like you were spot on. Awful stuff from the Jets.

Looks like we might be in the Lawrence sweepstakes here.
Don't mind that clown Gase, he will be gone by Halloween.
Flacco will start games for us, them disgraceful interceptions Darnold continues to throw are indefensible.

That first half might be the worst football I've seen us play? Just awful.

Gase is just abysmal, the run game is unimaginative and just bizarrely predictable. The screens being called are wildly ineffective. Where were the slant routes? Or small checkdowns? Anything to build some momentum for Darnold while still moving forward. We got Bell moving once, why not get him out in the open more often?

Sam missed 3/4 throws in the first half, the INT was brutal and then running out of bounds for a loss and the delay of game is just really poor... In the same breath though, he must have hit crowder, perriman and herndon in the hands 5 times with drops? And any 50-50 ball had no chance of being caught. I'm going to struggle to crucify Sam and call for Lawrence unless he basically plays like he did in the first half of that game for the season; he's just got such a poor cast around him.

Hoping Mims and Perine can make week 2 (and Bell). Running two or three running backs in some pistol sets would be interesting and hopefully Mims being on can push perriman into being a pure go-guy to stretch the field a bit.




Minor positives: Bless Austin tackled well. Becton wasn't made a show of, the pen was quite borderline. Fant was alright. McDougal was fine. Maye stepped up nicely, although I'd like to see some more variance in that, he seemed to either be an obvious rusher or sitting deep, not much being hidden. I liked seeing Gregg have the balls to pull Desir I guess. Mann punted pretty well

Yeah I just do turn on the Jets, would prefer a longer form one though.

Bell on IR, Becton injured but practicing so 'probable'.
And it's game 1.

We can't have anything nice.

What's the go to Jets podcasts these days guys. I listen to can't wait as part of the athletic subscription and turn on the Jets with Joe Caparoso. Anything better out there?

I listen to Play like a Jet with Scot Mason. It's a daily podcast with lots of different contributors and formats so you can pick and choose which you want to listen to. Flight Deck with Rich Cimini is weekly and he can be hard to listen to at times. For general NFL stuff, Move the Sticks, Around the NFL or Stick to Football are all good.

Expecting a 3 score margin today anyway, no crowder and no bell is brutal. Running is going to be based on 40 y/o Gore grinding up the middle, Ballage and Josh Adams (guessing Perine isn't ready for this week). Passing is basically Herndon or bust with Hogan, Perriman, Berrios, Malone our total depth; particularly annoying as the 49ers secondary is basically made up of scrubs too, I still have no faith in seeing any separation today. With Gore & Ballage in the backfield for once Gase will have an excuse for only running up the middle, no outside or passing threat out of the backfield. Ideally we'd see a heap of 2RB/2TE sets, I won't be holding my breath.

On defense, less worrying but they'll still grind us down, Jimmy G has Aiyuk making his debut most likely, Pettis and Sanu are both better than anything we'll be fielding too. I'd hope we can at least make them throw a bit and keep Reed quiet enough. Their rb depth is very good, seeing as they have an actual human at coach I'd expect to see lots of rb creativity to make up for the receiving injuries they're carrying.

Well that was awful. Only positives I could see were the Quinnen Williams finally showed up, Becton was solid and Sam didn't make any big mistakes. After that it was terrible everywhere else. Depressing stuff and hard to see how it will turn around with this roster and this head coach.

Clearly the owner is the issue. It's going on far too long for it to be anybody else..

Owners are a big problem, a large part being that they don't give the GM full control. Let JD fire gase in the next few weeks and bring in his own guys.

Not much to cheer for this season, but Brian Baldinger is sharing a lot of man-love for Becton. https://twitter.com/i/status/1308447818328297473

Seen that earlier, nice to see something is going right

At some stage the honeymoon period for Joe Douglas as GM will have to end. The majority of the criticism so far this season has been reserved for Gase but Douglas has to take some criticism for the state of the roster. The Jets have 4 WRs for tomorrow one of whom is injured and also they have 4 QBs on the roster tomorrow. Ignoring what many called a historically deep WR draft in order to take luxury picks like a 3rd string QB and a punter is starting to look like bad judgement. Then he compounded the mistake by not resigning Robbie Anderson. He may have improved Darnolds protection but he has also stunted his growth by not giving him adequate weapons.
