During his tenure as Jets Head Coach, Rex Ryan has used multiple fronts and exotic blitz packages to create pressure on opposing quarterbacks.  Using defensive backs and linebackers from every angle has generated some improbable victories, but when those blitzes get picked up, it’s led to some very forgettable losses.  With a stout front-3 of Muhammad… Read more

Every year at the outset of the NFL pre-season, fans hold their collective breath and wait to see what late-round pick or undrafted free-agent will step up and earn a spot on the final roster.  In the salary cap era, “bang for your buck” players are a must have.  Late round contributors who don’t demand… Read more

Despite coming away from Cincinnati with their second consecutive preseason win, Jets fans didn’t have a whole lot to be excited about.  After being pummeled by the Bengals starters for a little over a quarter, the Jets made a run against the Bengals’ second and third-string units to pull out a 25-17 win.  While QB Geno… Read more

As D’Brickashaw Ferguson prepares to enter his ninth season at LT for the Jets, new arrival Breno Giacomini is settling in on the right side.

JetNation Gets Physical With the recent injuries to two of the Jets top three cornerbacks, there are several opinions being offered on the prognosis and recovery time for Dee Milliner and Dexter McDougle in our NY Jets forum.  The only problem is, (to our knowledge) none of those people are physical therapists. So, we thought it would… Read more

If you were paying attention to the Jets first pre-season game against Indianapolis last week, you may have noticed the stellar effort put forth by little known LB AJ Edds. Edds led the defense with 7 tackles to go along with a late fumble recovery in a game that he’s surely hoping left an impression… Read more

Looking out at the Jets’ group of offensive players today, the one thing that stood out to me, literally…was the height of the wide receivers and tight ends.  No matter how well or how poorly he plays, QB Geno Smith is going to have some substantial targets to throw the ball to. Let’s start with… Read more

I was at Jets Camp again today and clearly the day was dominated by the two major injuries suffered by top of the depth chart CB’s Dee Milliner, and Dexter McDougle. McDougle left practice early when he went down in 1-on-1 end zone drills, and Milliner followed when he fell to the ground after battling… Read more

Here’s a recap of a few observations from Jets camp at Cortland. This was my first visit to Cortland and I made the mistake of standing too close to the action, which meant plenty of obstructed views of the field due to Jets employees/media/players sometimes creating a barrier between me and the action.  However, here… Read more
