Bergen Jet Posted December 19, 2013 Share Posted December 19, 2013 The dead horse is being beaten... It has been well documented how horrendous our receiving corp has been, but the numbers are just mind boggling when compared to the rest of the league. Everybody knows that Jeremy Kerley is our best receiver (and at this point it isn't even close). He leads the team with 413 yards. That places him solidly at 106th in the league in receiving yards. Add his 413 with Santonio's 395 (second on the team) you get 808 yards. Those 808 yards would be good for 31st in the league, which would be a marginal number 1 receiver/solid number 2. Vernon Davis is just 3 yards behind at 31st. Stephen Hill is our 3rd leading receiver in terms of yards. Lets add his 342 to the mix for a total of 1150 yards and a legit number one receiver. It would be good for 10th in the league and 4 yards ahead of Garcon and 20 ahead of Decker. Add in Cumberland's 338 yards and you are up to 1488, on top of the league... 21 yards ahead of Gordon and 39 over Megatron. After approximately 35 years of being a Jets fan I am absolutely astonished that a receiving group could be this terrible. The sad part is, where does WR land on our list of needs? We need serious secondary help, a guard and significantly better QB play pretty much as badly as we need weapons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j4jets Posted December 19, 2013 Share Posted December 19, 2013 Did u notice how half of our WR group has been injured for more than half the season and when you remove your top 2 WRs, you get street FAs to play WR? You know what happens right? You get shut down. especially with a rookie QB. Our passing offense's deficiencies have been well documented, but just looking at numbers to come to a conclusion is rather foolish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I think a more sensible measure would be team passing yards... which we would still be bottom 3 or bottom 5 in the league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have thrown for 9 more TDs with 11 less interceptions than the Jets.. So basically, we are by far the worst passing team in the league.

Whenever I see this, I instantly think that the numbers must be so horrendus that they obviously tell the story they are trying to convey. And in this instant, they are. The Jets passing yardage numbers are historically bad , no matter how you look at them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Santonio projects to 614 over 14 games, or tied for 56th... Again, they've played through injuries, they've played thru games where there hasn't been the other starter, forcing double coverage, n they've a rookie QB. Not all situations r the same so u can't simply pick up a bunch of stats, but the offense is anemic overall anyways. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
