Ok this doesn’t make me feel too good

Jets have struggled against the run so far this year so we are going to see more of the same on offense.

Question: if you wanted to run it this month how come we only have 2 running backs?

Hasty says hi

I mean, I wouldn't have felt great if those 5 were completely healthy either.

It's probably better if V Lowe goes on IR either that or he's going get Brissett on IR pick your poison.

Let's just hope C Wallace can play LT we don't Ever want V Lowe there again.

Siddy Sow should be back next week we might have to try him at LT if C Wallace struggles like Lowe.

Patriots Rookie Caedan Wallace Poised for Start vs Jets on Thursday

Caedan Wallace, a third-round rookie from Penn State, may be thrust into the starting left tackle position for the Patriots as they prepare for their Thursday n

Really hope C Wallace take full advantage of this opportunity because if he looks serviceable we'll ride him for the year barring injuries of course.

We dodged a major bullet with Bentley.
Sounds like he could be okay, even for Thurs. But, if they rest him and he's full go @SF, that's okay too.

I don't know what JB will suddenly improve on in 3 days. So I expect a Jets win. But it'll be close and low scoring.
17-16 type of game.

Backing tracking my post to you. This one sucks to loose bent.. guys a thumper, sets everyone up on defense.. Great leader. So hopefully McMillan can stay healthy enough to fill the void.

Deebo and mcafree will be out when we see SF week 4.

I feel like a short week benefits the better coaching staff (because they're more efficient with the little time they have, and their teams are generally better prepared already). In this regard, it's hard to say because we have so little data on Mayo right now, but I've never been super impressed by Saleh in general. Still, until Mayo proves otherwise, you have to think he's at a disadvantage here.

I think the lack of rest also makes mismatches more prominent. As guys get tired, their technique and concentration start to slip. So lesser talented players who might have otherwise gotten by on pluck and discipline are now more likely to get exploited by more talented opponents. This can go both ways, as I think it might accentuate the Pats ability to run the ball, but also will make the Jets pass rush pretty fierce. If they can stay on schedule and keep the 3rd downs short, they might be able to wear this Jets defense down over the course of the game. If they end up in a lot of 3rd and 8+, Brissett might actually get killed.

Your right. And like us.. Jets have taken hits to thier defense as well. So may be a game where the ground game for both teams could get going.. Hopefully we can get through the game with no major injuries. Be good to show some semblance of a passing game.

That shouldn't suprise you PF2 LOL... they are the IR boys...

Losing Bentley is crushing. But I think it'll be Tavai as MLB leader over Mcmillan.

Also, instead of juggling around the ailing OL we've seen, maybe this game (or the 10 day mini-bye) is where we can insert Jacobs and/or Thomas over the struggling guys.

McMillan can ball too.. he just hasn't been on the field.

We've got to move Onwenu back to RG.
Wallace should not be put in a bad position at LT (especially vs. Jets) - but enter at RT where he's familiar.

For Thurs - Lowe / Jordan / Andrews / Onwenu / Wallace

And keep Lowe on notice. If he struggles, have Jacobs ready to spell him and battle it out for who's better.

Words I never expected to read for $500, Alex.

I like this thought that we need to warn Lowe to be better or he'll be replaced at LT when in fact our replacements are so significantly worse that the thought of someone else at LT should put the fear of god in Brissett.

Isn't Lowe hurt?

The pass defense against Seattle got hurt in the 2nd and 3rd especially when they were in a no-huddle. It just simplified our pass rush and made them easy to block (maybe we should do this on offense).

This being a copy cat league, I expect other teams to do the same to our defense.

Agreed. We did some of that against Cincy it helped moved the ball the defense can't get set.. it's a big advantage to an offense.
