Besides the rash of pathetic stupid threads by what seems to be a new breed of idiots on the board.
Yep, Geno had a rookie day, the TO's were bad, Hill not finishing the post route on the opening play was equally as disappointing.
TO's were the story of the game, remove or minimize the TO's, it's a different game.
Jets D came to play, they were put in tough spots on most of the Titan TD's, save the last one.
Despite the TO's, despite the idiotic banter of that dumbass Deirdoff, I thought Geno stood tall, despite the mistakes, he didn't show a lick of negative emotion. To me, I saw a QB that knows he made mistakes, but it won't break him, at least he didn't show it today, and I think that is huge. This was something we did not see with Sanchez, and as a Sanchez guy, his negative energy, the slouching of his shoulders after bad plays, I think Geno does a far better job handling himself. So now we have some adversity, let's see how he responds. The coaches will need to coach, Geno will need to learn from it and develop, it's all apart of the growing pains.
Nobody should be making a big deal of this, but I see the dumbasses in the post game already are, and Leberfield needs to STFU, he's awful.
I'm torn on whether I think the Jets should let Ducasse play through some of these mistakes, he has the physical ability, it's obvious, but the mistakes are mental. But, they can't keep happening, it might be time to make the switch to Winters.
Random thoughts:
-The shot on Hill was pathetic, no flag?
-I didn't think the Locker injury was worthy of a penalty, it was close. He also didn't get hurt on the Wilkerson hit, it was the 2nd hit where Locker falls back into Coples where he gets hurt.
-Gates looks like he's playing hurt, but he needs to step up, it would be nice to have his speed and ability as a weapon
-Good to see Winslow step up, and the TE's get into the game calling, although, when Hill and Holmes go down, the WR's take a hit
-Glad that Holmes' injury is a hamstring, and not the foot, hopefully not serious.
-Thought Kerley hit his head on the turf, hope there is no further development of a second concussion
-Had no problem with the game plans on either side, Rex said they were out coached and outplayed, I didn't see that, I saw the turnovers kill them more than anything else.
-Looking forward to Goodson returning next week, it's obvious he will become a big part of the game plan, but the Jets missed both Goodson and Ivory today, hopefully, Ivory is back next week as well
-Some are making a big deal of our schedule, I don't think the Atlanta game will be overly difficult, that is a banged up team that isn't playing well, and their strength goes up against our strength with a less than healthy roster. I don't think the Steeler game will be insurmountable either
-2-2 sucks, but I think we can go 2-2 in the next four
-It sure seems like the refs are flag happy and are making calls based on reputation and not what they are seeing. The flag on McIntyre was pathetic, that hurt because it extended a drive that would become a scoring drive instead of a play where the Titans should have punted.
-We obviously missed Milliner, especially on the TD right before the half, I think he makes that play on the alley-hoop pass.
-I think the best part of today, MM didn't curl up and put the offense into the fetal position, and neither did his players, especially his rookie QB. They kept picking themselves up, and continued to execute the game plan. I think this more than anything is what hurt Sanchez, because the previous OC's coached scared and galled the game scared, MM doesn't do this, not at all, he rants, he raves, he sends the team right back out and asks them to continue to work, to me, this is a big deal, this is what we want in the offense and especially our offensive coordinator.
Again, it's weird, I didn't see a Jets team that was outplayed, outcoached, I saw a team that beat itself, penalties, turnovers.
It's a young team, people will forget that, but with a young team, and a rookie QB, we need to let the coaches work these kids through the growing pains, it's only week 4 of the season.
