Yup - it's one of the many things that makes him great. He can play from any CB position and dominate. Not many guys can do that.
Didn't watch Eagles at all this season. I have read a ton about how well we match up against them etc. Can someone who was able to watch Eagles say what are our weaknesses? I mean say there is a chance we will lose to the Eagles, what will make us lose?
Kelly puts a lot of pressure on opposing LBs and thats about the only relatively big weakness on this D. I could see the Eagles having success with short passes across the middle. Ertz could give the Jets headaches. Darren Sproles could be particularly effective in the passing game especially in beating Bowles' blitzes with screens and stuff. Anytime you play Philly you have to worry about their tempo. Straight up I think our d-line stuffs the RBs easily because they are better than the Eagle O-line but the Eagles won't do much slow paced straight up running, if any at all. If Bradford gets in rhythm completing these quick strike passes their running game could come with it. Either by crossing up Jets personnel, making them tired, or simply putting the LBs on their heels. a quick tempo when the offense is humming can really take a great DL and make it useless - as we saw last week with NE in Buffalo if the Eagle offense isn't working though and/or Bradford is struggling.. their tempo works against them in the form of a lot of very quick 3 and outs. If that happens, and it could, the Jets will be well on their way to a victory. offensively- obviously the Jets are still a wildcard there and anything could happen. so far so good and I like the matchup but you never know with these guys, can't trust them completely yet. if they turning the ball over a lot- well then obviously Philly will be in the driver's seat regardless of how the D plays against Chip's offense
All impact players on their team. Does anyone know who will be replacing these guys come sunday? I believe Demeco Ryan will be in, he use to be pretty good.
From everything I'm reading, we're about to find out just how much depth we have. Decker, Ivory probably won't play. Not even sure if Revis is 100%. Good time for TB to put out the "next man up" sign and see what we have on the bench. I'd like to see Stacy, Smith and Kerley play. that gives Ivory, Decker and Owusu time to heal up. Its early in the season so if we should lose this game, it won't hurt us as it has no effect on the division other than overall record.
but muh muh revis struggles against small quick guys!!!!!! I don't know what moron came up with that, but I've been hearing it all the time and it's simply never been true
Does anybody know the chances of these 3 playing? They're all listed as a gtd. I would guess Decker, and Ivory will sit, and Revis will play.
I have a gut feeling only Ivory is going to sit. Decker will play a bit but not full time since Smith is playing too. Revis will play. I'll be there so I'm just being optimistic.
Just drank 4 or 5 beers and GOT SO PUMPED FOR SUNDAY! Can't remeber the last time I was this excited for football this early in the season.
Id love to see Zac stacy. He had some great moments when he first came up with the Rams. Smith if he's ready will be fun too. I dont think he plays the same way as Decker but then again I really dont know what to expect at all of Smith.
I'm excited to go against the least mobile QB we have faced all season. As long as we keep Darren Sproles in check, the d line and blitzing linebackers/safeties will have a field day with Bradford
Alonso and Kendricks out? Screens to Bilal Powell for sure. Stacy should get a good amount of carries. You hit Bradford early, he will rattle.
Very hard game to predict. They're due for a win. They made a lot of changes and the Phily boo birds are are out as usual after a slow start. Personally I think Chip knows what he's doing and that Bradford's a good Qb. As for us usually when we start off the season well and the Giants don't things change around. I'm just going from past recent history.So regretfully I'll predict a Jets O struggle and a 21-13 Philly W. I'm also not convinced that Fitz can be consistent even as a game manager. In the past he has been mistake prone. PS I could see Mark getting into this game if the Philly O isn't working. And a very good chance our D line could get to Bradford. Mark btw is underrated as a runner. I could even see Mark being successful as a backup because his success is usually short term and he can sometimes move the ball. His problem is reading defenses and terrible judgment. But for a quarter or two he could light it up (sometimes).
Eagles have a really good defense, despite the injuries. They shut down Atlanta in the 2nd half and didn't allow an offensive TD to Dallas until the final minutes of the game. It's a good thing Maxwell is such trash.
Idk man. Julio Jones went off, they rushed for over 100 yards, and Matt Ryan had almost 300 yards. They also scored 26 points. The Cowboys lost Romo and Dez Bryant. Hard to say anything about that offense. They've let up 46 points in two games, 23 points per game and they give up 390 yards per game. I don't find that a "really good" defense at all
We are winning this game! 3-0 go jets! Dont care about philly problem,we are taking this game. Watch leonard get some sacks sunday.
