NY Jets Game Notes (KRL); Mims, Huff & Wilson
It was good to have pre-season football back after a year absence. Most will dismiss it, but there’s nothing like live reps to see how the NY Jets roster is developing. Let’s take a look: Special Teams – This is my first time seeing Chris Naggar and I wasn’t impressed. His leg was short on kickoffs… Read more
Some Young Players Starting To Stand Out
Who saw this win coming? Back to back wins against two playoff teams after 13 straight losses? I was furious after the Los Angeles Rams game as it cost them the #1 spot and a shot at Trevor Lawrence. This week I’m actually proud of the effort, fight and enthusiasm of the team as they… Read more
Jets Recap; Quinnen, Elfein & What to do in the Draft
An absolutely worthless, meaningless win that “improves” the Jets record to 1-13 has now probably cost the team a shot at Trevor Lawrence. I’ve never been so ticked off after a win, shame on the Los Angeles Rams for sleepwalking through the first half and then committing huge penalties in the 4th quarter that cancelled… Read more
The Day After (Another Loss) — Jets Notes
It is almost over, only three more games (they better be losses) and the Jets can get on to the off-season and wiping away the memory of Adam Gase: – Other than an incredible INT by Marcus Maye and an impressive KO return by Corey Ballentine (60+ yards) there’s nothing positive to say. – Why… Read more
Game Observations; Ty Johnson & Targeting Playmakers
You’ve got to be kidding me, that was way too close for comfort! Henry Ruggs finally woke up and played like a #1 pick and bailed out the Las Vegas Raiders and kept the NY Jets draft position intact. The Raiders remain in the playoff race and the Jets stay in the lead for Trevor… Read more
Young Players Starting to Stand Out
Interesting dynamics going on in the last two games. Two close losses (good) and within the contests young players are flashing (better). On top of that I’ve been impressed with the fight I’m seeing. There’s been no “loafing” and players seem dialed in looking to win the game. Are these indications that a young roster… Read more
Game Notes; Build the Line Around Becton
That was a close game but Jaguars fans got punched in the mouth as the Jets pulled out a last second loss to continue their quest to the #1 pick. Let’s take a look: – It really stinks Mekhi Becton got hurt because he was putting on an absolute clinic at LT. Totally sealing off… Read more
Game Notes; Why is Gase Still Employed?
I’m sorry I didn’t post earlier but the Jets committed another personal foul against me, “roughing the writer” and I had to recover. Who can be shocked that they lost (37-28) to a QB making his first start on a short week. A totally undisciplined mess of a game that continues to indict not just… Read more
49ers @ Jets Week 2 Recap: Jets Lose to Backups, Suffer More Injuries
Game Recap In a Week 2 that saw so many injuries across the league, the Jets and Niners suffered a handful of injuries themselves. San Francisco defensive linemen Nick Bosa and Solomon Thomas both left in the first half with knee injuries, and neither would return. Wide receiver Breshad Perriman was injured while blocking on… Read more
Game Rewind; Gase Refuses to Run and Setup the Pass
Each week KRL will provide mid week thoughts on the previous game. In case you missed it here was the initial reaction that was posted on Monday (NY Jets Monday morning game notes). General Notes – The game stunk – It took 3 hours out of my life that I’ll never get back – They… Read more
Jets @ Bills Week 1 Recap: Darnold, Offense Falter; Look Unprepared
Game Recap The 2020 season did not get off to the start the Jets were hoping for. Instead, the offense started off slower than molasses, gaining 4 total yards on their first three drives. On defense, they allowed Josh Allen to throw for a career high 312 yards, most for a Bills passer since 2016… Read more
Darnold in the Rain; Other KRL Game Notes
In a game that was extremely hard to watch and had a pre-season feel to it, the Jets ended the season with a 13-6 win over BUF. A torrential downpour, odd play calls and some questionable plays that weren’t challenged highlighted an ugly game. The Jets end the season with a 6-2 second half and… Read more
