Rochesterfan Posted December 7, 2020 Share Posted December 7, 2020 6 hours ago, Bob in STL said: That was not a Hail Mary. It was a deep ball to you your best receiver who was inexplicably left in single coverage against a marginal CB. Except that is exactly what a Hail Mary is - the difference was typically teams have 8 guys back there so everything becomes a scrum. In this case the prayer was answered because for the first time a DC sent 8 guys blitzing - so instead of a scrum of guys - it was no different than a pass in the first half. A Hail Mary would almost always look like that sans the extra DBs clogging the area. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TBBills Posted December 7, 2020 Share Posted December 7, 2020 I am just glad the Bills do not have to play them. They seem like they are going to get someone hurt on another team with the way they are playing right now. Just now, Beast said: It was not done on purpose to lose.

Anyone that knows football understands that. Yes anyone that knows football understands it was. Greg has never called a play like that ever in his history when in those circumstances. In fact that is the first time that play has ever happened since those stats have been recorded. You can have your opinion but I will look at everything else and see that the only reason they have not been fired is b.c they are doing their job and the owner wants them to lose out. If the Jags win another game the Jets might try to win 1 but right now they don't want to lose out. Why put an undrafted FA rookie on their best WR? So he can get caught by the double move and let them score. Edited December 7, 2020 by TBBills Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They will clean house after the season. I bet Gase doesn't even make it to "Black Monday". I bet on SNF's pregame show Florio will announce the Jets have fired Gase.

Funny to see a team like the Jets purposely tanking and people hate them for it. Gregg thinks he’s the smartest guy in the room. He was trying to surprise carr to get a sack since he had given up open shots into the end zone playing coverage. It was very much a Gregg move. just declaring it never done doesn’t make it true.

A Hail Mary would almost always look like that sans the extra DBs clogging the area. Nope. One WR and one CB. That is not a Hail Mary. Just a simple stop-and-go pattern and a deep ball. Not every long pass is a Hail Mary. A Hail Mary typically has multiple WRs going into one spot forcing multiple DBs to play there as well. It is a chaos play and a prayer. The Jets played man coverage with no safety help. The QB read the blitz, stepped up in the pocket, and hit a deep bomb, for an easy and uncontested catch in the end zone. Greggo gambled on a sack and gave up the easy long pass. Edited December 7, 2020 by Bob in STL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Don Otreply Posted December 7, 2020 Share Posted December 7, 2020 Teams lose on purpose every year, it has become quite apparent that the league doesn’t care if a team chooses to tank, as long as it is denied by team FOs, coaches etc, and not spoken of directly, outside of in a humorous fashion by sports show talking heads. Is what it is folks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One WR and one CB (it just happened that because it was the last play and the Bills played coverage - 2 safeties converged also). The Difference between the Hopkins play and the Raiders play was the defense. The Bills played coverage - so there were 3 guys deep forming the scrum. The Jets blitzed leaving the DB one on one. Would the Raider play have been a Hail Mary if there had been 2 additional deep safeties that converged on the catch? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funny to see a team like the Jets purposely tanking and people hate them for it. I want to say it was on purpose too but if you go to Dan orlovsky twitter handle he has two similar situations where Greg Williams does zero blitz at the end of the game. I even think there was a game against the steelers last year where they are in the exact situation with 15 seconds left and the Jets zero blitz the steelers..it worked that time Think its a very stupid call either way...but whatever.

H2o Posted December 7, 2020 Share Posted December 7, 2020 It wasn't the right defensive call, but Carr had just missed similar type of throw under duress to Agholor. The CB bit on the under route. Why? We'll never know. Then Ruggs with those 4.33 wheels just runs right by him with Carr dropping in the perfect ball. I'm sure those players are tired of losing as well as hearing about how bad their team is. I'm sure they were trying their hardest to finally get that monkey off of their backs of being a winless team. It didn't happen. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
