There are two minor DB stories that I like. First, after, being inactive all year, Bryce Hall was active, but didn’t take a single Defensive snap. With Echols out , there seemed to be an opportunity. The rise and fall of Bryce Hall is indeed curious. The second story is the rise of UNDFA Tony Adams, Safety, but played meaningful reps as the dime back. Tony is in the mix for 2023 starting FS. This years draft class was outstanding, part of this amazing class is two UNDFA’s , Bam Knight & Tony Adams
I’m old school. I rather judge a player on what I see not what statistics from computer say.
Mann is a very erratic punter. It seems when the Jets need a big time punt, he blows it. I might be wrong on this does he ever directional punt out of bounds. Everything is straight down the field. His propensity to kick to the middle of the field has cost this team two games with punt return tds. If I’m the GM, I’d sign Matt Araiza immediately. He was cleared of all sexual charges. If the Jets don’t sign him, someone else will. Araiza was one of the highest rated punters coming out of college this past year.
Bryce Huff needs more playing time. All I know whenever he is on the field, he causes more havoc than any other Jet defender not named Quinnen Williams. Eye test here, watch when the pocket is collapsing, what do you see, #47.
Speaking of eye test, without knowing any stats, Sunday’s game showed me that if White didn’t get hurt, Zach would never see the field this year.
If anyone saw anything positive from him on Sunday, please educate me because my eye sight is going and I might have missed something. Did he make a few outstanding throws definitely, yes. But we still see throws of off his back foot, bounced throws in the dirt. Hail Mary throws that Carter and Wilson made great receptions saving interceptions. If the analytics guys want to attack, he came into the game with a lifetime completion percentage of a little over 54 %. Against one of the worse pass defenses this week, he gave 51 plus %. I saw where one Zachanista commented that his performance likened him to Mahomes. Hey pal, pass it to me, my body aches every morning when I get out of bed.
If Douglas and Saleh see Mahomes then this franchise is in big trouble.
All the Zachanistas bring out what Peyton Manning did his first two years or some other outstanding quarterback’s stats. The one flaw in their defense of Zach is this. These QBs showed continuing progress in years 1 to 2 and 2 to 3. Can you honestly say that about Zach, that he has shown progress.
Been a fan since 1963, I have seen where meaningless wins at the end of the year cost the Jets a great player in the draft. Off the top of my head, Lawrence Taylor( drafted Freeman McNeil) and Matt Ryan ( drafted Vern “the Ghoul” Gholston), I could find more believe me. Two years ago, I wanted the Jets to lose out once it looked like their season was turning to trash. The prize, Trevor Lawrence. I was called every name in the book on another Jet site. How dare you root for the Jets to lose, winning the Ram game was important for the team to build a winning culture. A winning culture with Gase as HC and the worse roster in the NFL, really or this classic because the scouts say that Lawrence is a generational player doesn’t mean it will happen or this one Ram win important, I rather have the win, we will worry about a the qb position down the road. This Thursday the never root to lose group will see the folly of their thinking because there is no comparison between Lawrence and Zach. Do I want to see the Jets lose, NO, but the prize was their for their the taking. The only team in NFL history with 2 wins not having the number one pick. Do you think the Jets with Lawrence could have won their last 3 games.
Sorry to bore you with my ranting. As I said I’m old, time for my prunes and Metamucil.
On any other team Mann would have been gone after the Patriot game. Only this team keeps him - there must be a stat for incompentance by the GM and Coach. Speaking of the Rangers - HUGE game tonight and at least that is something to look foward to this week. When Dolan (owner) didnt see any 'playoffs' he fire the rangers whole management organization - they made it to the conference finals with a new regime. Think Woody Johnson will do that when they finish 7-10 ? NO
Was your PFF quip at the end a nod to what the Kelce brothers said a few weeks back?

Too bad you didn't talk about clock management. The game was there for the pickings if management didn't waste approximately 30 seconds.
