one way this helps the Jets is the new refs don't call headhunting PI fouls. Landry would have gotten 15 yard penalties last night if those were real refs. In college (most of these guys are from places like the MAC) there is no defenseless receiver rule, there's no helmet to helmet rule, college is in some ways a more violent game than the pros. The speed is slower but the hits can be huge in college. That helps Rex's defense full of guys like Landry.
