jgb Posted July 28, 2014 Share Posted July 28, 2014 unbelieveable http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap2000000370402/article/calvin-pace-ny-jets-have-best-defense-in-the-nfl Calvin Pace: N.Y Jets have best defense in the NFL By Marc Sessler Around the League Writer Published: July 28, 2014 at 09:15 a.m. Updated: July 28, 2014 at 10:30 a.m. Consider this post the third and final installment of what we'll call our Gang Green Braggart Trilogy. Part I: Geno Smith declares to the world that he's about to become a top-five quarterback, despite what we witnessed last season. Part II: Dee Milliner shrugs off his uneven rookie campaign to call himself the best cornerback in all of football. For real. And Part III, in which pass rusher Calvin Pace declares to the New York Daily News that Rex Ryan's defense will overtake Seattle's as the NFL's finest. "(Compared to) the rest of the defenses in the NFL? (Expletive), man, we're the best," said Pace. "You ask anybody around the league, we're not the team you want to see coming in, even in a down year." Yet another reminder that the games -- even preseason ones -- can't get here fast enough. To be fair, Pace has a right to be confident in how Ryan develops and prepares his defense -- he's one of the game's top coaches on that side of the ball. But the Jets weren't even the top unit in the AFC East or their own state last season: The Buffalo Bills ranked higher and arguably house more overall talent. We do love Gang Green's crop of young and aggressive defensive linemen, but the backend of this unit is questionable. Milliner, of all people, looms as the key variable for an uneven secondary that threatens to undo everything else Rex has put together. There's hope in Florham Park, but it's definitely time for the Jets to clam up and start proving themselves against a living opponent. The latest "Around The League Podcast" offers up team-by-team training camp previews of the NFC East and NFC West. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jgb Posted July 28, 2014 Author Share Posted July 28, 2014 If there is any boast I am inclined to believe, this is the one it is the most realistic of the 3 boasts in the article but in order to deliver that secondary will have to somehow find a way to be top ten even with our elite D line. personally i think our defense will resemble the giants' D the first time they beat the pats in the superbowl. as we saw that year, pressure on the QB can make an average secondary look pretty good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pointman Posted July 28, 2014 Share Posted July 28, 2014 If our corners show up and McDougle is something we are all hoping for.. and Pryor is our version of Kam... maybe. F Sherman the big mouth big nostriled dickhead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rattling the QB and making him think about the rush before he throws is better than having lock down corners IMO. Eventually a WR gets open if there is no rush. If an NFL level QB gets comfortable in the pocket amazing things happen for an offense. If he feels like he's about to get killed mistakes are made. If our corners can be average they will look like they are better assuming we get pressure on the QB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LionelRichie Posted July 28, 2014 Share Posted July 28, 2014 of course it's best defense in the NFL. They have the 2 best CB's, the best DL, Harris is the best MLB, Rex is the best DC, and Demario Davis has "Ray Lewis" like qualities.....and who could forget Kyle Wilson and his Dikembe Motumbo finger waving. the worst part of all of this nonsense is that this team was getting to be likeable again with the addition of some humility. now not a day goes by that someone isn't the best, or top 5, or some such other nonsense. For a team that hasn't won a Super Bowl in 35 years and hasn't been above .500 in 3 they sure have an amazing collection of talent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure about the bullseye tactics here. The defense was average last year, terrible against the pass and terrible at creating turnovers. There's no superstar on the defense....enough already.

Baby Bubba to the boogie da bang bang da boogie To the beat, beat, it's unique Come on everybody and dance to the beat!" Excellent use of Sugar Hill Gang reference, now I'M THE BEST POSTER ON JN!!!

Go Jets77 Posted July 28, 2014 Share Posted July 28, 2014 Typical Jet bullsh*t. Rex and co. can't and haven't backed it up but continue to make a joke of the team. How about win a division title? Or actual have a winning record? Maybe even make the playoffs? Again every non jet fan just laughs at us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course you love this. You're a Rex homer. Who hasn't won sh*t btw. The guy can't develop players. Knows absolutely nothing about 2/3's of the team. Mismanages clock. Is far too loyal. Average HC who hasn't won sh*t. Not the guy I would slurp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
