Jets' gameplan is all too obvious

I voted for the Corner play. When they disrupt the reciever or make a play on the ball we either force a down, get the ball back, or P.I. .But your right on in this game, its TE vs LB. I thought about this after the Bills game. Remember Preseason…and we saw DE Shaunessy, while in a 4-3, drop back into coverage and get a pick? Remember how much push the 3 man front was getting? Thats the package we needed to utilize more in pass coverage. Let him and DE Scott chase some TE’s. Games like this one against the Jets make me miss SS Mike Mitchell more. He that guy, That LB/SS/CB hybrid thats missing right now. He’s that extra Nickle LB. Our present day Assassin in the secondary.

The last play in the 2nd link, the winning TD to Jett … Gannon’s ability to avoid the sack to thread the needle to throw the TD like he did … was friggin incredible. That whole drive, in fact, seemed like he was pressured on every play … somehow, incredibly, he never took a sack.

Jet’s must’ve flown home after that game w/ a VERY similar feeling to the one that the Raiders flew home with this week. They had a 20-3 lead in the game, and blew it by giving up a long drive for a TD w/seconds left to play.

And other than Routt, lets face it … they’re not great.

This is why, to me, it’s really down to the DL. Our 2ndary isn’t good enough to neutralize Holmes, Burriss, Mason, and Keller all game long, there’s really not a chance of that happening.

So from where I sit, yes, our DB play is key, but even more key is to make it so their play ISN’T so key. Ya feel me on that?

I can’t believe how many games there are this week with complete unanimity across the picks.

10 of the 16 games, EVERYONE picks the same team to win? I don’t think I’ve ever seen so many ‘lock’ games in that chart, which I check out most weeks.

I’m amazed not one person thinks Houston can beat NO, and not one picks the Vikes to pull off an upset at home against the upstart Lions, when they’ve traditionally owned them at home. Also I’d have thought one or two would pick the Bills for an upset, and one or two would believe Denver could upset the Titans (not that I want to see that).

Jets/Raiders is one of the more divided games … given as many of the other games they’ve picked as locks, I’d have expected them to all jump on the Jets bandwagon as well.

Pretty certain the game plan when passing will be to stretch the field w/the speedy Moore and DHB, taking Revis and Cro down the field and out of the play, and working the shorter routes w/Boss, Reese, Bush, McFadden, Shillens, and Hagan … all of which can catch and are tough to bring down in the open field.

We have enough legit receiving threats on the field on every play that we can neutralize your corner talent. We may not see any 60yd pass plays on Sunday, but one stud and one good corner (and I don’t even know who your safeties are, so I doubt you have any Polamalu’s backing up these corners) aren’t gonna shut down our passing game completely … mark my words.

They’ll NEVER get on Kansas City like they got on us all those years. The “media” was essentially fans of other teams venting decades of frustration watching Oakland be one of the most dominant sports organizations EVER until the last near-decade. Glad to see that window is finally closing on them.

Your whole receiving corps scares me to be honest. I think there’s pretty universal agreement that the key to this game is going to be our D-line vs. your O-Line. And this is a matchup that I think we can win, personally. Our Big Dick is going to be putting your rookie center on his ass all game long, and Sanchez is going to be running for his life all game long, and Wimbley and Shaughnasty are going to be introducing his face to the infield dirt repeatedly.

to lchristmas’ post ‘people underrate how detrimental (#2’s) presence was’.

against Buffalo.

I was really hoping they could hang with the Pats … doesn’t speak well for our chances of handling the Pats if the Bills are no match for them.
