Sounds like the defense won the day yesterday.

Aaron Rodgers can't rescue inept Jets offense on ugly day (nypost.com)

Observations from Jets training camp on Monday.

One shining moment

During a day of offensive ineptitude, Aaron Rodgers did produce one highlight. He lowered his arm angle, using a sidearm throw to get a pass around C.J. Mosley’s hands to Garrett Wilson. 

False step

Just about everything on offense was ugly, including the starting offensive line unit. They allowed two would-be sacks to Will McDonald, and new right tackle Morgan Moses committed a false start penalty during team drills.

Max Mitchell subsequently replaced him on the field. 

 

Caught my eye

Edge rusher Jermaine Johnson chucked a water bottle roughly 30 yards toward the end of practice, clearly upset.

Robert Saleh said Johnson was annoyed he didn’t call a sack on the play before, and Saleh joked he almost never does unless it’s overly obvious. 

Rodgers report

For much of the afternoon, it wasn’t even clear who Rodgers was targeting on his throws. He went a brutal 11-for-27, including five straight incompletions, with an interception. 

Injury report

Cornerback Michael Carter (ankle) is day-to-day and will be reevaluated at the end of the week. CB Jarrick Bernard-Converse (groin) and safety Isaiah Oliver (undisclosed) will be sidelined for the rest of training camp, though Saleh said they should be ready for Week 1.

DT Leki Fotu (hamstring) is also out for the rest of camp. WR Irv Charles should return to practice soon, perhaps even on Tuesday. Jeremy Ruckert (concussion) returned to practice, albeit in a red non-contact jersey.

How did Tyrod do?  We got a QB competition or what? 

And Willy McD is going to F'ing explode this season.  

No man, we let huff go without having anyone to replace him. I mean, that’s what everyone keeps saying so there is no way McDonald can take over as our situational pass rushing specialist.

Any McDonald good news is also good news in terms of the Reddick quagmire.

Also for the offense, getting the bad ones out in practice, if that is what it was, is never the worst thing

more evidence that the whole offense needs to play at least a quarter but should play the 1st half.

if the offense is looking this bad in practice they need to play this weekend.

if saleh doesn't let the guys get a little game action tune uo in before week 1...then he is a buffoon. so expect there to be no starters played this week

Right?  Probably impossible for him to go from 3 sacks to 10 sacks, you know, like Huff did.

Good grief.  Defenses usually come around faster than offenses and there has been considerable churn in this offense.  Basically they’re going with an all new offensive line.  The big question is whether saleh is going to hold them back with some petty critiques.  He wants to pin their problems on going against the best defense in practice. This might be true to extent but he seems to be gloating over the offenses failures.
