1) When the Jets went 13 personnel, McDermott put Rapp into game as a nickel CB to essentially play a LB role. This often resulted in our DB's getting easily blocked and once the Jets rusher made it past the d-line, it was chunks of yardage. The Jets led the league in Week 1 in EPA/rush while in 13 personnel as a result Thoughts on this strategy? Seems... not ideal. Shouldn't we be matching 13 personnel with 3 LB's - especially with an aging defensive backfield of Hyde (32), Poyer (32), and Tre (turning 29 this season)?

 

 

Here is an example of what I mentioned above. This is a recipe for disaster:

Perhaps we don’t have 3 full time linebackers.

But if Dodson is so bad that he can’t come on the field for just 5 or 10 snaps a game when an opponents offense is in 13 personnel then I question why he has a spot on the roster.

If they're going to run, why put in a Safety sized LB, put in Ford or settle and run with 3 DTs and two DEs on the line. Get bigger not smaller up front.

You mean this is not preferred? 😂

Not sure why McDermott likes to run such a small lineup out there. As a smaller guy could he be biased towards them?
