    Expected.

    As if there was any doubt, but it's official now. Probably the most anticipated Jets preseason game ever...

    Giddyup! I wonder how much playing time he's in line for. Usually, starters don't get much, but it seems like he ought to get as much in as he can between now and September. I say let him play every snap of the preseason.

    Great news. But I prefer we use him for as most 3 series'. Don't wanna risk ANY starter for a meaningless game.

    He needs to PLAY, though. I was only half-joking when I said to let him play every snap of the preseason. New playbook, recievers' tendencies and styles, signals, etc...

    Practice is nice and all, but he needs to play.

    I don't see him playing more than 2-3 series. They don't want him to get hurt. Who knows what shape he is in. I mean, he looks like he is still in good shape.

    wow<filler/>
    I wonder how many people will be at the game. That would be crazy to see it more full than some of the regular season games last year.

    I got them even before Favre was a Jet which was even better.

    I'm hoping for at least the first Q, if not the first half. He has ALOT of stuff to learn and theres no better way to learn, then to do.

    Really? That's fantastic news ! It just so happens I'll be in Stevens Point that night visiting my mother. I'll be able to catch Brett's first game as a Jet! What channel is it on? 7 or 9?

    As a Packer if Brett wasn't in sync with his receivers he would always ask for more playing time. I wouldn't be suprised if he wants to play an entire half.
