    anyone else watch the game last night? I know its only preseason but that was ugly! there was so many missed tackles, Demario Davis and the two starting safeties had an absolute disaster. Amaro only got reps with the 3rd string offense and then left the game with a shoulder injury so that was a bit disappointing and the 2nd and 3rd string WR couldn't even catch a cold. the 2nd string o-line got bullied off the field too!
    First team offense looked good with Fitz at the helm but it was only one drive so we didn't get to see much. Ivory and Powell ran pretty hard.
    But as I said its the 1st game of the preseason so I dont have any real worries. they've got plenty of things to work on and hopefully we'll see improvements over the next 3 games

    Yeah not a lot of positives to take from what I saw of it. Basically summarised as their backups were a lot better than ours.

    I see grossman reckons he'll be fit next week.it's interesting and hard to know what they'll do. If Fitz goes down are they happy for petty to take up.

    I'll put the missed tackles down to start of season, hopefully, but I'm not as hopeful for the season as I was before


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,638 ✭✭✭phatkev


    this guy seems to think Geno will be ready to go week 1, so we might not see any QB's coming in. Just let Petty take the majority of the pre-season snaps

    I avoided sports scores last night because the Jets game wasn’t televised live, but the game replay was scheduled to play at 11 pm on SNY (SportsNet New York). So 11 pm comes and I turn on SNY. The screen is black. Nothing? SNY is off air for then entire time the game as to be played.

    I see the Jets didn’t lose another quarterback during the game... that’s progress, I guess.

    Just watched the condensed game of the jets from last night. Hopefully it's just pre season game stuff but it looked bad. The stats don't help as the jets were beaten in all of them.

    I worked from home so I could watch it.

    I sent the following to a work mate "Jets preseason optimism usually lasts til the end of preseason"

    Watching the Jets Lions game here in Heathrow. Apart from all the misery of this game my own take away is that Kellen Moore is a horribly poor quarterback.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 166 ✭✭Herpes Cineplex


    Just looking back to the Geno incident, I thought the team handled it well. It was a quick and decisive move to get rid of that fruitcake.

    Jets bring in QB Matt Flynn. Probably the best option they had at this point.

    Another mediocre QB to look at, great!! I think they've realised through-out camp that there is no way they can role with Petty if Fitz goes down injured

    yeah exactly, watched/read the gif breakdown and analysis of all of Petty's 1st game throws, he looks exactly as raw as you'd expect... Some good things and some bad but jesus ya wouldn't fancy him having to step in for Fitz if he took a knock.

    Flynn will be fine to warm the benches for a few weeks.

    Leonard Williams came to play tonight! Dudes having a great game.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,638 ✭✭✭phatkev


    YEEEEAAAAAAHHHHHHH

    Early Days but he looked great tonight.
    Sam Monson saying he will be another Tyson Jackson a while back... :pac:
    His close in speed is unreal.

    Cromartie will give us massive headaches this season though. He's always been a ludraman but I have a feeling he's lost some speed.

    He was so bad last night! The first team O and D besides a handful of guys were pretty pathetic again. I hadn't realized how poor Fitz arm is, he was struggling to throw the ball 15 yards. But the two's and three's gave a good showing. Petty had a nice game, if only there was someway to transplant his arm onto Fitz body we'd be right!
    The amount of penalties they gave up was so frustrating too, but preseason is the perfect place to iron out those mistakes

    Not sure if anyone is up watching but the first string offense are looking good!

    Stacy looking strong and getting a lot of first team reps. Good roster competition. Reilly (olb I think) getting decent time with mauldin and pace out, seems to be rushing well enough.

    Stacy just cemented the 3rd running back spot with that first half. he could be a real treat on goal line situation(something we were pretty bad at last season). first team defense doing alot better today, Cro had a nice pick 6. Demario Davis has been trash though, he will cause this team td's if he continues to play like he has this preseason, Pryor also not covering himself in glory

    Also having an actual number 1 WR will make so much difference to this team, Marshall is so much better than anything we've had the last few years

    Yeah davis is a real concern. One position where we're lacking depth and quality.

    And a punt return td!!

    Far better than having decker back there, shaping up nicely.

    Yeah that was a disaster waiting to happen!
    I haven't heard anything about William's knee injury which is a bit worrying.

    was on /r/nyjets and it seems to be assumed not to be serious but mri today... need him back for w1 anyway. Was good to see mo getting loads of reps last night too.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,638 ✭✭✭phatkev


    Yeah I just read its a bruised bone, I assume that wont affect him to much


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,644 ✭✭✭SHOVELLER


    Granted it was a friendly but always enjoyable to beat the giants. Was in the city over the weekend but didnt have plans to go out to the Meadowlands.

    Enjoyed the intercepted TD and the non tackle letting in Stacy!

    Could Washington's RG III be headed to the Jets anytime soon?

    I hope not, he'd be murdered going against the Bills and Fins d-lines twice a season. The only way someone will pick him up is if washington release, which I don't think will happen.
    In other news Jace Amaro is out for the season with a torn labrum:mad: So as he stands the three TE's are Jeff Cumberland, Kellen Davis and Wes Saxton!! makes me a little bit sick even typing that out
