http://m.nydailynews.com/blogs/jets/2013/10/jeff-cumberland-will-miss-game-vs-saints-with-concussion Will miss the game with a concussion. Question is, who starts?
Perfect. One less target. Maybe Rob Ryan will take pity on his brother and not blitz a ton. Saints probably only need to score 17-20 points to win this, although my guess is they'll roll up 30+
Not good news for the Jets. MM will need the game plan of his life to make us competitive. We need to run the ball like gang busters Sunday.
We need to score 30 points to have any chance of winning. It was going to be extremely doubtful with Cumberland. Now ... No Shot. If we want to be playing meaningful football in December, we better split with Buffalo and Baltimore on the road after the BYE.
I doubt MM will be willing to incorporate this type of game plan, but this is the kind of game where the Jets need to keep Brees off of the field. The Jets need to control the TOP for 35-50 minutes and the only way to do is to run the ball effectively. That would call for a 60/40 split between run and pass, maybe even more. But we shall see.
50 minutes TOP? Don't think it's possible to lose if you have the ball that long. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
