    he’d be doing the same thing he was doing last year, situation pass rusher only. Paying him top dollar was something JD wasn’t willing to do. Huff had only 18 snaps, which his snap count was cut in half….no pressures on the year. He’s also not in a wide 9 so he can’t use his great bend to get around the corner without the added leverage.

    If the Jets can get Reddick back in the building, it would be huge. I'd love to see WMD on one side and Reddick on the other.

    I came here to apologize. I was dead wrong and I am eating crow as we type. Couldn't be happier.

    He was mostly invisible except for 2 times when he was lined up in the neutral zone. Kind of felt like the 9ers game.

    It's amazing that this guy once again disappeared when not playing against a team that won't be competing for the #1 overall pick.

    It's games like today when you realize we have one of the truly all-time great "General Managers" leading this team.

    He had 6 pressures… he is not going to get sacks every game.

    This Is probably the one thing the Jets have done right in the last couple years.

    No kidding. Yet haters point out some massively worthless BS to the contrary.

    Will be exciting to see him opposite another elite passrusher in Reddick on the other side rather than fucking Michael Clemons

    Yeah it maybe goes under the radar a bit but McD has done this being the only legit edge rusher we have…the plan was to have JJ and McD on each side and that went to shit fast, but McD has come through….assuming he’ll only get better once Reddick actually gets on the field and starts drawing some attention.

    Goes back to the draft, and I know a lot of folks here hated the pick because of what we had on DL at the time, and I’m not saying OL wasn’t a bigger need at the time, but I truly do believe that you can never have enough good pass rushers. It’s common and easy to rotate them so it’s not like on OL where we drafted Olu and he sits because we have the two veterans…on DL you can rotate and get everyone snaps.

    Anyway, glad to see the guy doing well…

    He's really come along as one of the few bright spots on an otherwise very unimpressive defense this season.
    I don't think Olu is sitting because we have two veterans. He's sitting because we have two veterans AND an incompetent OL coach AND an incompetent OC. Smith should have been benched weeks ago-he's been a liability and a horrible offseason addition thus far.

    Yeah, seriously. I can't wait to see that. JJ was a huge loss to that unit. We need Reddick badly, so we have that dual threat back and hopefully he can help in run support as well.
