After an offseason of hearing prognosticators and fans alike insist that the Jets offensive line was bound to be one of the worst groups in the NFL, the unit performed at a level few would have predicted in their season opener against the Lions in Detroit.  It’s only one game, and the Lions were without… Read more

Quick, name the top five third-string left tackles in the NFL.  You can’t, and that’s no big surprise. One of the biggest takeaways from last nights Jets loss to the co-tenant Giants was the need for the team to address the left tackle position where they’re currently down to their third option in Brent Qvale… Read more

With the start of the NFL season just a few weeks away, the New York Jets are preparing to take on the co-tenant New York Giants at MetLife Stadium in the annual week three preseason meeting between the two teams.  With rookie quarterback Sam Darnold expected to be under center, it looks as if the… Read more

According to Jets beat writer Dennis Waszak of the Associated Press, 26 Jets didn’t take part in last night’s 15-13 loss to the Washington Redskins, but perhaps them most interesting name of those who didn’t play is rookie tight end Chris Herndon. https://twitter.com/DWAZ73/status/1030294211260755969 Despite consistently shining throughout the first two weeks of training camp as… Read more

With news of Jets guard Brian Winters likely to miss the remainder of the pre-season as he makes his return from an injury-plagued 2017, the question has to be asked.  Why was Todd Bowles continuing to trot the right guard out on to the field last season after he’d torn an abdominal muscle in week… Read more

As great as the internet can be for much of the time (especially if you avoid politics), it can be equally hilarious, and not in a good way, when mob mentality creeps up on you. In sports, we see it all the time.  An opinion on a team or player is repeated so many times… Read more

It’s one of those things that can’t be taught or coached, but you see it almost every time you take a moment to watch some of Sam Darnold’s college performances at USC.  Time and again, under pressure, Darnold rolls out, spins away or steps up in the pocket to avoid oncoming defenders, before making a… Read more

The fact that New York Jets GM Mike Maccagnan jumped at the opportunity to claim former New England Patriots offensive tackle Antonio Garcia should come as no surprise to anyone who has been paying attention to Garcia and the Jets O-line situation.  What should come as a surprise, is that several other teams passed on… Read more

While the majority of Jets fans were thrilled to see Gang Green nab a potential franchise quarterback in Sam Darnold with the third overall pick in this year’s draft, there were those who were none too thrilled over the team’s failure to use any of their choices to stock the pipeline to the o-line.
