ESPN's Mike Clay Predicts Jets Will Be #1 Seed In The AFC

[Claymation]

Uh-oh!

[peebag]

Does Mike Clay have some form of concussion or drug/alcohol problem?

[Dcat]

Does @Claymation have any kind of relationship to Mike Clay....?  

[Jimmy 2 Times]

I predict pain, disappointment, and destruction. 

[shawn306]

Clay still needs to be molded

The biggest weakness is Safety.

Strongest unit, CBs best 3 in NFL

Has OL ranked as the 3rd best unit in the NFL and they now have depth.

Has Breece eclipsing 1600 yards from scrimmage in 14 games. Best fantasy pick up.

Biggest Question Mark, Aaron Rodgers

Best team in the east.

Said Joe Douglas did an incredible job this off season. Gave example of Atlanta having a similar window and they drafted a QB.

I am a big fan of Gumby and Pokey.

I believe Mike Clay is related to Bill.

I clicked play, saw Eric Allen, and immediately hit stop.

Love this reference

The Jets have never been the number one seed. Hate to tell you, they never will be either.

Best Jets roster many of us have ever seen.  If this team can't get some pre-season love then what's the point of listening/reading what people are saying about them?

It's less of a prediction and more of an expectation. The question isn't the #1 seed, it's if they will go over the 1.5 over/under loss total this season

[BurntDice]

I much prefer to be the underdog. Please hop off the bandwagon

If Rodgers does not miss any significant time, I agree with this.  Not only are the Jets talented, I can feel the chemistry they have.  This is a top notch team.  

[Warfish]

Going into the 2024 playoffs as the #1 seed sure would be a fun thing, and definitely a change of pace for us Jets fans.  Let's hope he is right.

4. New York Jets

Biggest strength: Cornerback. New York has the league's top CB trio. Sauce Gardner is already arguably the league's best corner, having been a first-team All-Pro in each of his first two seasons. Perimeter running mate D.J. Reed (fourth among CBs in tackles since 2021) is one of the league's most underrated defensive backs, and former fifth-round flier Michael Carter has developed into one of the league's top slot corners. -- Clay

Biggest weakness: Safety. The Jets are pretty stacked, but safety is one area with question marks. Jordan Whitehead (the only Jets defender who departed after playing 600-plus snaps last season) is out and Chuck Clark is in at safety. Clark (ACL) missed all of 2023, but he was productive before that, totaling 274 tackles (ninth most among safeties) with Baltimore from 2020 to 2022. He'll team up with returning starters Tony Adams and Ashtyn Davis. -- Clay

X factor for 2024: Left tackle Tyron Smith. OK, the real answer is Aaron Rodgers' Achilles. But after that, a lot hinges on Smith. This team is in better shape to contend today than it was a year ago because of the additions at tackle (Smith, Morgan Moses and Olu Fashanu), but it also is one injury to an injury-prone player away from the offensive line becoming a question mark again. -- Walder

Nonstarter to know: Defensive tackle Solomon Thomas. Most 4-3 defenses rotate their interior linemen, so Thomas is going to see playing time behind the great Quinnen Williams and new arrival Javon Kinlaw. Last season, he was strong against the run but had only nine pressures despite five sacks. The Jets will need more from him in the pass rush this season. -- Schatz

Projected Starters For The Jets

QB	Aaron Rodgers	DT	Quinnen Williams
RB	Breece Hall	DT	Javon Kinlaw
WR	Garrett Wilson	EDGE	Haason Reddick
WR	Mike Williams	EDGE	Jermaine Johnson
WR	Malachi Corley	EDGE	Will McDonald IV
TE	Tyler Conklin	LB	C.J. Mosley
TE	Jeremy Ruckert	LB	Quincy Williams
LT	Tyron Smith	CB	Sauce Gardner
LG	John Simpson	CB	D.J. Reed
C	Joe Tippmann	CB	Michael Carter II
RG	Alijah Vera-Tucker	S	Chuck Clark
RT	Morgan Moses	S	Tony Adams

Does this mean we don't have to play the regular season?

Every talking head is a stupid clueless hack unless they say exactly what I want to hear.

[GangGreened]

Who is Mike Clay and is he credible?

[Raideraholic]

The way it’s going at ESPN Mike Clay will be soon out of a job .( next round of cuts).   He will be the next Ira from Staten Island , and calling WFAN  giving his expert opinion.
