ComfortablyNumb Posted June 12, 2018 Share Posted June 12, 2018 I don't want to overreact here, but Teddy Bridgewater looks GREAT. Solid pocket presence. Making good decisions in 11on11 drills. It's early, but he's been impressive every time I've seen him. #Jets — Manish Mehta (@MMehtaNYDN) June 12, 2018 Looks like Manish has found his new informer.

Fair point. It was really just his last few words of the tweet that had me roll my eyes. Typical Mehta. "....he would not have scored." That's purely opinion. It's like me saying, "Saquon Barkley made a great move at the line of scrimmage to scamper for a 30 yard run at Giants mini-camp, but most good defensive lines would have had him for a loss of yardage."

flgreen Posted June 12, 2018 Share Posted June 12, 2018 Sam Darnold takeaways, observations from Day 1 of Jets minicamp | More extensive action with starters Posted June 12, 2018 at 04:44 PM | Updated June 12, 2018 at 04:51 PM 0shares 0 Comment By Darryl Slater | NJ Advance Media for NJ.com The Jets' mandatory minicamp is underway. So let's go ahead and give you some takeaways and observations from how quarterback Sam Darnold performed on Day 1 of minicamp, on Tuesday. The Jets finish up minicamp on Wednesday and Thursday. Darnold is competing with Josh McCown and Teddy Bridgewater for the Jets' starting quarterback job. AP Photo The Jets drafted Darnold third overall this year. HOW DID DARNOLD LOOK IN OTA PRACTICES? Click here to read what we learned about Darnold during organized team activities. The Jets held 10 OTAs practices, and three were open to reporters. IS MINICAMP THE SAME AS OTA PRACTICES? Essentially, yes. Both include no-pads practices. The pads don't go on until training camp. The main difference — all three practices of minicamp are mandatory. It is the only mandatory portion of an NFL team's entire offseason program. And all three minicamp practices are open to reporters. THE STATS Darnold on Tuesday got 38 reps (most of any Jets quarterback Tuesday), including 12 reps with the first team. He completed 14 of 23 passes and had a 5-yard touchdown pass in a red zone period. Darryl Slater | NJ Advance Media for NJ.com THE GREAT STUFF The touchdown was a really nice play. Darnold threaded a throw through coverage and hit Eric Tomlinson in the middle of the end zone. As usual, the ball got out of Darnold's hand very quickly. THE GOOD STUFF Earlier in practice, Darnold had a fantastic throw to Tre McBride. The coverage was tight. But the well-zipped pass got past the outstretched arm of Darron Lee. A perfectly placed (and paced) throw by Darnold. In Darnold's best segment of team periods Tuesday, he completed 5 of 7 passes, and the incomplete passes were a brutal drop by Isaiah Crowell and a throwaway. Darnold showed good vision over the middle of the field during this period, and he also hit a check-down throw, under pressure, to Bilal Powell. THE BAD STUFF Let's examine Darnold's nine incomplete passes. We mentioned the Crowell drop and the throwaway. Darnold was also high on a throw for Jordan Leggett. There was a deflected pass at the line. Jermaine Kearse appeared to not turn in time for another pass. Darnold threw a ball high and long for Bucky Hodges, and also was high on a pass to the end zone for ArDarius Stewart. Those were his most notable incomplete passes, except ... THE UGLY STUFF Darnold should have been intercepted by rookie cornerback Parry Nickerson along the sideline, on a throw intended for Leggett. Darnold locked in on Leggett, and Nickerson was able to jump the route. He just couldn't hold onto the ball. Darryl Slater | NJ Advance Media for NJ.com HOW DID JOSH MCCOWN LOOK? His usual steady self. He got 25 reps (all with the first team) and completed 8 of 12 passes. He continues to be the Jets' No. 1 quarterback. Let's see how things play out in training camp, though. HOW DID TEDDY BRIDGEWATER LOOK? He got 25 reps (including three with the first team, in a red-zone period) and completed 6 of 10 passes. Bridgewater is moving around well on that surgically repaired knee — a good sign. Tuesday was the fourth (of 11) spring practices that reporters were allowed to watch. And it was the first time Bridgewater had gotten a first-team rep in those practices. But Jets coach Todd Bowles said we shouldn't read too much into that. Darryl Slater | NJ Advance Media for NJ.com TUESDAY'S DARNOLD HIGHLIGHTS Check out the video above to see Darnold in action on Day 1 of minicamp. WHAT DARNOLD HAD TO SAY Before practice, Darnold weighed in on Bowles saying he doesn't often make the same mistake twice. "It's huge," Darnold said. "Especially as a young dude coming in here and wanting to learn right away, that's part of the whole learning process — when I do make a mistake, which is going to happen, whether I like it or not, it's going to continue to happen throughout my career. So limiting those mistakes and understanding how I can correct them." Darryl Slater | NJ Advance Media for NJ.com WHAT TODD BOWLES HAD TO SAY "It’s a process," Bowles said. "He’s learning. He’s studying. You make some good throws, and you make some bad throws, and that’s what we’re practicing. He made some throws [Tuesday]. Shorts and T-shirts, you can’t tell whether a ball would’ve been broken up, or whether he would’ve been sacked or not. But his learning is outstanding. The process and the steps which he has taken, he’s been very steady, and we’re very pleased with him." IS DARNOLD MAKING PROGRESS? Yes, you can see it daily ... or at least as often as reporters are allowed to watch practice. Again, as Bowles mentioned, it is tough to make sweeping judgment calls off spring practices. But Darnold doesn't look lost out there, as Christian Hackenberg did during his first spring and summer with the Jets. The ball gets out of Darnold's hand quickly. He doesn't repeat mistakes too often. It's a start. OVERALL THOUGHTS ON DARNOLD'S PRACTICE TUESDAY A bunch more action with the starters. Through the four practices (out of 11) that reporters have been allowed to watch in the spring, Darnold now has 29 first-team reps, compared to three for Bridgewater (all on Tuesday). Remember, we weren't allowed to watch seven of the practices. McCown has received all first-team reps, from what we have seen. Darnold continued to look fairly legit out there on Tuesday. There's a big difference between that and winning the starting job over McCown and Bridgewater, though. Darnold did have that near interception, and he has to clean up those inconsistencies. IMPORTANT TO REMEMBER ... Just one no-pads spring practice, folks, so don't read too much into any of this stuff. Things will really get cranked up once training camp and preseason games roll around. Darryl Slater | NJ Advance Media for NJ.com WHAT IS NEXT FOR DARNOLD? The Jets finish minicamp on Wednesday and Thursday. And then they don't practice again until training camp begins in late July. It'll be up to Darnold to work on his own during the next month and a half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flgreen Posted June 12, 2018 Share Posted June 12, 2018 Injury update: WR Quincy Enunwa, who sat out last season due to neck surgery, practiced for the first time with a helmet. He didn't participate in team drills, only positional drills, but it's still a significant step for a player coming off a serious neck injury. He won't be in team drills in minicamp, but he's expected to be cleared for training camp, according to Todd Bowles.

jetstream23 Posted June 12, 2018 Share Posted June 12, 2018 I know players can't work with coaches, etc. but can't the coaches leave them with a playbook and some recommended drills and tasks for the next 5 weeks? Film review, working with a private QB coach, players organizing their own get-togethers ala Sanchez in southern California? I could imagine some (or all) of the QBs hanging out a bit and maybe doing some throwing with a couple of the WRs at a college facility. I dunno. I guess it's either that or all the Jets run off and we hope we don't see more than 3 arrests by late July??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sam is the future, but you have to cheer for Teddy after that horrific injury, he deserves a second chance to start. This. We shouldnt be in a rush to put Sam Darnold out on the field. The goal is to find a QB, not play Sam Darnold. If Teddy Bridgewater is the best QB on this team then start him, if he plays well enough to keep the job and be considered a Franchise QB (Which is what he was heading toward in Minny) then what difference does it make? If Darnold shows-and-proves, the play him. This should be about finding the QB and not putting the rookie on the field. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ohio State NY Jets fan Posted June 13, 2018 Share Posted June 13, 2018 The Jets gave up 3 second rounds picks so the "real" fans could watch Josh not lose 2 extra games last year. If Bridgewater looks like a competent NFL QB in the preseason, he is worth more than a second rounder since he could actually be the reason the team wins games, that is rare for the Jets, and I can't understand why any Jets fan would want to trade him, I think Favre might have been the last QB who willed this team to win and was the reason they won. If Sam wins the starting job, all bets are off - trade away but if he needs more time; Who would you rather watch play QB for the Jets, Josh or Teddy?
