ARodJetsFan Posted October 19, 2015 Share Posted October 19, 2015 The Jets have surpassed the Denver Broncos as the number one defense in the NFL - # 1 in total defense, # 1 in points allowed and 3rd in rushing defense. This is what the Jets have been missing. We just have to take better care of the football on Offense and this team can be special. http://www.nfl.com/stats/team Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jetsfan80 Posted October 19, 2015 Share Posted October 19, 2015 better coach, better secondary, better DLine. Yep. While Revis was arguably at his best in 2009, overall the secondary is as good as I've seen in a long long time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree and the 2009 DL isn't close to this DL. Maybe if Jenkins had stayed healthy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ARodJetsFan Posted October 19, 2015 Author Share Posted October 19, 2015 #1 rushing as well. Negative - we are currently 3rd in rushing defense allowing 82.6 yds per game. That's still damn good though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Long Island Leprechaun Posted October 19, 2015 Share Posted October 19, 2015 Not to be Debbie Downer, but with the Pats coming up next, I think a key missing phrase is "for now". Perhaps. I think the Jets will contain the Pats' high-scoring machine and keep it close. Obviously, turnovers will completely disrupt any prognostication. Could see this being a close game in the low 20's.

Jettington Posted October 19, 2015 Share Posted October 19, 2015 We're actually probably best in both rushing and pass defense. Titans are technically #1 in fewest pass yards allowed but that is only because everyone is running right over them so they don't need to pass against the Titans (Titans ranked 28th against run). Same is true with rush defense; Atlanta and Giants are ranked ahead of us but that's only because they have no pass defense, they're ranked 28th and 30th respectively. It's very rare to see a defense be top 5 in both rush and pass defense. TL;DR: we are the best defense this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnnyLV Posted October 19, 2015 Share Posted October 19, 2015 The interesting thing about this is that Bowles defense is not a scheme designed around limiting yards, but about getting turnovers. This makes the fact that we are #1 in overall yards much much more impressive. Contrast that with a Rex defense which IS designed to limit yards, and gets few turnovers. Another key point: I believe our # of points in the third quarter is ZERO. So despite Bowles claims to the contrary he is making tremendous adjustments at half time.

Jetster Posted October 19, 2015 Share Posted October 19, 2015 The defense should get even better sans injuries. You also have to consider the turnovers by the offense in both the Eagles game & the yesterdays game that led them to have to be on the field more than they should be that's at least 9 snaps minimum after 3 turnovers.

I hate that statistic...we played the Colts on the road, a team that was in the AFC championship game last season, opening game was against a team with a winning record last season, and the Redskins were an overtime play away from beating a strong Falcons team and coming into NY with a winning record.

RutgersJetFan Posted October 20, 2015 Share Posted October 20, 2015 I'm excited for this game because I think it gives us a real shot to know where we stand this season. I have no idea if this is a Super Bowl defense. I get that conventional and efficiency numbers both say we are, but man, it's just impossible for me to ignore how soft this schedule has been. I've been starting to have expectations and I just want to know if they are valid already. The good news is baseball has taken over my life so I'm not stressing about this sh*t like it normally would. But what I saw in the second half of yesterday, Redskins or no Redskins, we looked like a contender for a pretty long moment there. The way we came out, beasted in the trenches and then scored a bunch of points in a short period of time, it seems like the last time I saw the Jets play like that was eons ago. I was too used to the Mangini and Rex years, when football used to put me to sleep. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freemanm Posted October 20, 2015 Share Posted October 20, 2015 Like I said, the Jets have a once in a decade defense. They better win it all this year, because some of the players won't be around next year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
