Popular Post Joe Willie White Shoes Posted September 13, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted September 13, 2021 Here is how important week 1 is in the NFL. In 2020, Tampa Bay lost and Jacksonville won. In three of the last 4 seasons that the Jets advanced to the AFC Championship Game, the Jets lost in week 1. I'm not saying the Jets are a playoff team (or are even close), but the season is a marathon and not a sprint and this team can look very different in December. Let's step away from the ledge and reserve judgement on, well just about everything, until the team plays a significant amount of games this season. 10 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post jgb Posted September 13, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted September 13, 2021 Jets are a bad football team. Everyone knew this whether they admitted it to themselves, or not. The upside for this season is finding the bright spots. And hopefully QB is one of them. 11 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kevinc855 Posted September 13, 2021 Share Posted September 13, 2021 I’m willing to get on this excuse train for a few weeks but will the season be out of control by mid October? Again….. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Isn’t it telling that the jags also looked terrible? that said, if the jets had more imaginative play calling on that 4th at 1 we could have won the stupid game.

Popular Post UntouchableCrew Posted September 13, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted September 13, 2021 As long as you accept that we're not a good team I think it's fine to take the marathon vs. sprint approach. If you're holding out hope that we go 10-7 I think you're in for a rude awakening, because the team that played yesterday just won't win that many games. The ideal scenario is that by the second half of the season Wilson and the offense have a groove and show significant improvement. Nothing wrong with being the 2019 Dolphins. 7 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You know… hate to play what ifs but with Carl Lawson Jets probably do win. You just know he would’ve forced a Darnold mistake or two. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They might have been the best team/worst matchup for us in the second half last year. I was stunned we won that game -- I'm sure we'll win some we "shouldn't" this year too. My comment is less about "which games we win" and more about how the team looks. Like, if we'd somehow pulled that game out of our @$$ yesterday I'm not sure I'd be feeling that much better about the team today. The first half offensive performance was pathetic. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know you want to hang Douglas in effigy and start with the billboards and plane messages, but this is year 1 (game 1) of a 2-3 year rebuild.

Sam Darnold beat the Bills in 2019 and look what they became in 2020. The Darnold Jets won some games in the prior 3 seasons against some good teams. Anecdotal comments based on one game are just ridiculous. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Except the Pats have better personnel just about everywhere else, so what does it really tell us? These pronouncements about the importance of this game or that are ridiculous. The NE game will tell us about as much as the Carolina game - that this team needs to grow and improve. It's not a litmus test game. Unreal. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn’t have high hopes for this season but the line play yesterday was worse than anyone could have imagined. I'm cautious about not overreacting to week 1 but the OL concerns are legit. That said, it's probably not that bad all year. And it did get better when Becton went out, as suggested, they might be better served with Fant at LT and Moses at RT. Sucks that Becton is a bust but it is what it is, could be a blessing in disguise at least for the season. I really dont understand the approach to the interior of the OL. They handed AVT the job with basically no competition yet he didnt have a preseason. Dan Freeney was their big offseason move to beef up the IOL and you knew you were starting a rookie QB. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the staff didn’t put enough stock into live preseason reps. The two rookies Moore and AVT didn’t play at all in the preseason and didn’t practice much either. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Browns had one of the most talented rosters in football in 2020. They blew chunks for years and drafted at the top of the draft for years. We don't remotely have a roster like the Browns. Cleveland got blown out by the Ravens. We got blown out by a team that's likely to be a 4 to 7 win team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fantasy Island Posted September 13, 2021 Share Posted September 13, 2021 The offense was horrid. Defense kept us in the game. The opposite was what everybody was expecting for the season. We have to develop a running game so that play action plays keep opposing defense honest. Is was a @#$% show out there yesterday. Becton is a bust. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
