“Yeah, Moe, that team sure did suck last night. They just plain sucked. I’ve seen teams suck before but they were the suckiest bunch of sucks that ever sucked.” – Homer J. Simpson The Jets ran 13 more plays than the Dolphins, had the ball for over three minutes more than the Dolphins and won…
The prevailing thought at the close of training camp was, the Jets aren’t ready for the season to start. Today they proved that thought to be correct. From the opening drive, to the final whistle the Jets were outmatched in every conceivable way. The Bills had the most talent, far superior coaching and they even…
The offense had themselves a very productive practice. The offensive line still struggled in spots, but Sam Darnold and the receivers were able to find some success. No Breshad Perriman again today (knee swelling), and still no Denzel Mims, allowed three others to shine. Nate Hairston broke up a couple of passes, Bless Austin and…
Well, we made it to the fighting portion of training camp. It’s that time of camp where players are sick of the players they line up against every practice. The difference this time is there’s no preseason games coming up to give them a break from each other. It all appeared to start with Neville…

With inside linebacker, Avery Williamson, already lost for the season with an ACL injury, Gregg Williams will likely have to make some tweaks to his defensive scheme. When…
Florham Park, NJ – Today was the day of the switch. The defense got to wear the green jerseys, the offense forced to wear the white. Look good, play good they say and the defense looked so good that they won the day. Leonard Williams was held out of practice with an “irritation in his hip,”…
Florham Park, NJ – It’s check-in day around the NFL. Teams are gearing up for training camp and expectations are high for players and fans. Fans, not just Jets fans, almost always feel far more optimistic than they should feel on check-in day, but this year Jets fans have some good reasons for optimism. Mostly those…
Florham Park, NJ – The New York Jets will have their three day mandatory minicamp next week (Tuesday June 4 through Thursday June 6), yes this means Le’Veon Bell will be in attendance, but today the team practiced in front of the media for another day of VOLUNTARY practice. Of course this means the following disclaimer…
