Its hard to imagine Revis & Co. allowing Brady to throw for 466 yards like he did in Buffalo. More than half of Bradys 59 pass attempts went to Julian Edelman (19) and Rob Gronkowski (13). Thats not going to happen against Bowles secondary when the teams face each other in Week 7. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
r00tabaga Posted September 24, 2015 Share Posted September 24, 2015 Gronk will still get his. Edelman, who I officially can't stand, will not. Revis is still nasty and loves him a good challenge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should be interesting.I actually agree with the quote above. They may match up the best with the Pats. With that being said they aren't explosive enough to go very far. The Bills have the talent to go deeper in the playoffs but with that defensive game plan from the other day they will never beat the Pats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dorkington Posted September 24, 2015 Share Posted September 24, 2015 I think the Jets likely have a better defense than us, but I'd take the Bills offense over the Jets. A lot of our problems (imo) against the Pats were scheming problems. We have talent on defense (obviously), so it comes down to if they were put in a position to succeed.

KDIGGZ Posted September 24, 2015 Share Posted September 24, 2015 the Jets D is better equipped to play NE than we are. but the Jets offense is terrible and won't be able to keep up. containing the Pats means they score 3 TD's instead of 6 and the Jets can't score enough to keep up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why can't it, is Revis going to guard Gronk and Edelman? They certainly don't have the LBs or Safeties to cover either. They have Revis, who will probably take away one of those 2 players, Brady will just go to the other. Cromartie isn't nearly as effective as he once was. He'll take the mismatches that he likes, which is exactly what he did against the Bills. EDIT: It's a hilarious article really. He's using the Jets "dominating" performance against the Colts as the reason the Jets can beat the Patriots. Gee, I'm pretty sure thats what every reporter, fan, etc thought about the Bills after they beat the Colts. I'll say it again, the Jets defense will not be able to sustain 5 turnovers a game and be lucky enough for a RB to fumble the ball before he walks into the end zone.

They weren't trying to score all that much, until Indy put up some points, then they marched down the field and scored to end the game.

FireChan Posted September 24, 2015 Share Posted September 24, 2015 Thats...not what I saw. Really? They went short pass, run, pass, or run, run, pass on their drives in the second half, until the Colts scored. Then they scored. Then Luck turned it over again, and they ran the ball 6 times to one pass. Kicked a FG and the game was over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fact that they scored immediately after Indy scored does not mean that they were simply laying back in a shell. Playing ball control is not laying back in a shell. Or are you implying that the Jets are so good that they can easily score at will, and will simply continue to do so against the Patriots? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not saying they are great or even good. I'm just saying, to me, them not putting up more than 20 on the Colts was due, in part, to their conservative approach once they got a lead. IMO.

I'm just saying, to me, them not putting up more than 20 on the Colts was due, in part, to their conservative approach once they got a lead. IMO. Can't say that I agree. Their first possession after going up 7-0 (thanks to a 9-yard TD drive after an interception) was pass, pass, pass, punt. Very next possession was run, run, pass (for 1st down), followed by pass, pass, pass, punt. Next possession was run, run, pass (for 1st down), followed by pass, run, pass (1st down by penalty), pass (interception). Their next possession, on which they kicked a field goal, featured 7 passes in 9 plays (2 were deep throws) After Indy's 2nd half fumble, they opened with 4 consecutive passing plays (2 were deep throws), followed by 2 runs and a FG. Their final TD drive was 6 passes in 8 plays (3 were deep balls) http://espn.go.com/nfl/playbyplay?gameId=400791711 Play-calling looked like a team trying to score...to me anyway.

HeHateMe Posted September 24, 2015 Share Posted September 24, 2015 The Jets are going to come back down to earth a bit but still will be around 8-8 this season. They are last year's Texans team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Bills have the talent to go deeper in the playoffs but with that defensive game plan from the other day they will never beat the Pats. Agree on both points. Fitz can win a game in September but it's doubtful he can carry the team in November and December. He's a finished product, whereas TT has the potential to get better (as does Rex's game planning)...

Pneumonic Posted September 24, 2015 Share Posted September 24, 2015 It's far too early to say at this time but, whichever of Bills, Jets and Dolphns gets the best QB play will end up being the 2nd best in the AFCE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luxy312 Posted September 24, 2015 Share Posted September 24, 2015 To buy off on this article, I would have to buy off that the Jets are going to be +4 in turnovers every week. I'm just not buying it. They've generated 10 turnovers in their first two games. Neither the Browns or the Colts looked good in either of their first two games. Despite all that, they're basically break even on the possession battle on offense (just over 30 minutes) and have moved the ball up and down the field even less than the Bills. By contrast, the Bills are only +2 in turnovers for the first two games combined. The Jets are near the top of the NFL in rushing offense and near the bottom in passing. I would expect the strategy of other teams at this point to be to force them to throw the ball. Pretty much what the Patriots did to Buffalo after the first series last weekend. Are any of the other teams a threat to the Patriots? So far, my answer would be no. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I chalked it up to Coach Gailey knowing what Fitz will probably do if he just lets him pass pass pass. He's been there and done that. Now that he has a good D, I suspect he'll be happy to sit on leads if he gets them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jester43 Posted September 25, 2015 Share Posted September 25, 2015 by mid-season the Jets will be back to scoring 13 points a game. Of course, the Bills may be back to 15 by then as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gray Beard Posted September 27, 2015 Share Posted September 27, 2015 I just looked at the various "Expert" predictions on-line. It was about 2 to 1 in terms of the number of "Experts" who picked the Jets compared to "Experts" that picked the Eagles.
