The only explanation I can think of was the 45-3 was a complete implosion of the offence against a team who we were expected to lose to, whilst this was the Jets losing to a team and in a way that shouldn't have happened - we're used to seeing the offence blow up, but we're not used to seeing the defence being destroyed on the ground and we're not used to seeing the OL getting manhandled. Give it a couple of days and let everyone pour themselves a nice cold pint of toughen the fuck up, we'll be fine.
Well at least nobody has started a thread about switching to the wishbone offense. This defense is fine they just have lapses where the look like hot garbage. Every team in the NFL has this issue no team is perfect.
The jets run a lot of 4 down lineman sets. I cant speak to the raider game but as a whole they certainly run their fair share of 4 down lineman. It's not even a debatable thing.
Too late, typical SOJF: Jets an 8-8 team last year. OMG the sky is falling. I don't like Rex. He talk too much.
1) Why would shifting into exclusively 4-3 midseason generate more pass rush? 2) With all the blitzes Rex constantly dials up, don't you think its also possible that might even run defensive plays with 4 men on the line? == Jets D did manage some 3 & outs. The big problem looked like they couldn't consistently hold the edge ... and against the Raiders, each time you make that mistake you get burned really bad.
Those are all pretty bad. Funny how all these negative nancys only post after a bad game. A bunch of bitter fans show up out of the woodwork.
Check out the banned thread in the bs section......a mod changed my avatar and I changed my location........lol
the entire team blew up. the defense was playing like a slap dick team in the 45-3 game, and then sanchez threw 1 dumb fuck pick to spikes? then he was throwing up prayers the rest of the game. funny thing one of those sanchez throws of desperation were to mccourty. he is not a bad corner, but that is where he got all his picks. pats blowing teams out of the water, and teams throwing 40 yard bombs, which for a corner..ya licking ya chops for that shit.
