Hard Knocks Jets

[stevewin]

Ep 2

 

- Nice to see the Rodgers infomercial continue

- Saleh's punchable face quotient rising (if that's possible)

- Every time I see Hackett first thought is "clown show"

- Wow Bryce looks like a little kid

- Nice peek at joint practice into how things will go once the pressure starts coming

- Let's hope their season goes as bad as their rookie show

Not likable.

tolerated episode number two

 

I just got this feeling that the Jets are totally going to implode their head. Coach is beaming with pride over a preseason win.

We don’t know that they’re actually good yet

ESPN, of all outlets, threw up a tantalizing infographic (highlighting a VERY SMALL sample size). Unfortunately, I'm suddenly unable to recall exact parameters, but it went something like this: 

 

Last/only three teams to add in one offseason two offensive skill players with four or more pro bowl appearances (possibly over a controlled/recent span).

 

Team	Acquisitions	Outcome
2023 Jets	Rodgers, Cook	tbd
2020 Bucs	Brady, Brown	Won SB
???	??? (very frustrating)	Won SB

 

Probably kind of easy to identify the 3rd team that did it (minus my brain fart)...maybe the Rams with Stafford and Beckham?

[Billznut]

The surest way to know that Saleh is never going to amount to a great head coach was on full display in episode 2 with his bravado and being so overjoyed and cocky about a meaningless 27-0 pre season win. The Jets feel to me like a team that will hang a banner after each win they get. They should be embarrassed on how they are being portrayed on hard knocks.

They’re good. How good is the question.

I assume it was Manning and....?  

 

This model has worked a few times...so we can't dismiss it.

Finally watched Ep1.  The Jets have a talented roster but MY GOODNESS the douche factor on that team is through the roof.  Rodgers sounds like he’s doing a bit - am I crazy or is he doing some kind of southern cowboy accent on the show?  This whole “grizzled gunslinger mentor” routine is a total put-on.  And Saleh comes across as a complete meathead phony, that eagle/crow speech made absolutely no sense at all and the sad part is he clearly wrote and practiced it for the show.  And Zach Wilson somehow comes across as younger than he looks, and he looks 16.  That guy is lightyears away.

 

This year’s Jets season will be fascinating.  Rodgers is clearly seeking and embracing the spotlight and I am so beyond skeptical he has thick enough skin for what he has gotten himself into.

 

Popcorn is popped.

I completely agree on Saleh.  That speech sounded fake.  And what a poor speaker that man is.  I expected to be impressed by his leadership skills.  Completely opposite result. He  sounds like a phony.

Big conversation on NYC sports radio is about his leadership,  or lack of. Most Jet fans n hosts feel he'll be fired after season and he's not the "alpha" in the locker room. 

Our DL should dominate them week 1. Their ol is in shambles

Their DL will probably dominate our OL

Difference is here is Allen can run to avoid the rush. 39-year-old Rodgers with two strained calf's is dead meat.

Week 1 vs. Bills: "Rodgers is back! The Jets are a real contender."

Week 11 at Bills: "And the 39 year old hobbled Rodgers is no match for the 34 year old rejuvenated Von."

Correct but Jets got to Allen last year and also injured his elbow. You can't avoid the rush every play

I think the Bills win week 1. It won't be easy but Rodgers first game adjusting to a new OL and new teammates overall I could see them struggling here. The Bills offense will also have its hands full as well. I see a 20-17 type of game. 

[FilthyBeast]

Just like the Bills found out last year, rarely do these media darling super teams live up to hype.

 

Pressure in NYC is going to be off the charts if they aren't dominant out of the gate...

Agree. The Bills team is more settled-in than the Jets. With that said, can anyone imagine what the Jets fans (and media) will be like if the Jets win? OMG! I won't be able to turn on a single sports show all week.

This isn't even about the Bills, and you still got an eyeroll from Airseven... you must be doing something right

I’m listening to OBL, and at the joint practice with the Bucs on 10 drop backs, Rodgers was reportedly sacked 6 times and the other 4 were quick dump off passes.

 

If Von hears this one, he’s going to chomp at the bit to ensure he’s not on pup week1.  He’ll have a field day on 9/11.  Groot will as well.

[BillsfaninSB]

The D coordinator is really annoying.  Dropping the F bomb every other word and wearing his hat backwards gushing over Rodgers.  That act has gotten really old fast.

Did they mention that AVT and Tomlinson are not practicing? O-Line is definitely an area of concern, but its up to the coaching staff and Rodgers to make adjustments, if they cant do that then we deserve to have a ***** season. All they can do is play the games soon. Good luck this season Bills fans! Should be an exciting season. Here's to no injuries!!!
