not expecting 300 yards and 3 TDs. but simply not throwing the game away horribly would've been nice and probably results in a win.
Were you at the game? I don't think they showed a replay of it. Or if they did, it wasn't the right angle to determine anything. Jets didn't protest or challenge it so I don't question the call.
We've been spoiled with greatest CB off the last decade. He gets older and starts to reasonably decline and plays against arguably a top 5 WR talent in Sammy Watkins and some of u guys bitch and moan about him in today's game where it's almost impossible to do anything to WRs these days without getting a flag tossed their way...
Personally, I blame Fitzpatrick. He was the weak link on the Jets team this whole year. Throwing three picks is horrendous
alright, probably was a legitimate call then. And yeah I was there unfortunately. After the game, as cold and miserable as I was I wish I threw myself onto a burning table like that idiot Bills fan did haha
Why not give Revis help, he's fucking Revis of course he doesn't think he needs help, it's on the coaches. Now Bowles knows Revis is not the goat we know him as.
The throw to Decker was awful no doubt, bad timing. Enuwna dropped an easy shovel pass for a TD. If Enuwna catches that, we win the game and we are in the playoffs. Or maybe not because they would have continued to give Watkins that dumb 8 yard cushion and we would lose by a FG.
Again.... I'm just not buying this "Revis was doing what the coaches told him to do" crap. He is Darrelle fucking REVIS. He isn't capable of "calling an audible" on his own coverage? Are you telling me the premier cornerback in the league has no say in his coverage?
That had to be a hard game to watch, even with the weather. Well look at this way: whenever someone starts a new thread about what was the worst defeat in Jets history, you can say you were an eyewitness to this one.
Have you ever played the game of football? I'd love to be on a defense you would call-- "Ok, guys, we're going to play Prevent here. Except for CB1, LOLB, and RE. You guys are really good, so you just do whatever comes naturally. Everybody else, Prevent."
Look who he was throwing to, It's easy to rack up stats with Brandon Marshall and Eric Decker catching passes, and his limitations were on display yesterday, when he had the wind towards him he was throwing ducks and couldn't put enough on the ball t oget it where he wanted because he has a weaker arm.
hard for me to really blame any of them.... Quigley. terrible. no excuse for a 20 yard punt. but i guess at the same time he was bad all year and management did nothing to try and replace him. i mean, maybe there wasnt a better option, but at no point did we even bring in guys during the practice week to see what as out there. Revis. got roasted. but were was the coaching staff? they watched the same game we did, and did nothing to adjust, just kept having revis 1 on 1 with a 10 yard cushion and outside bail technique. never doubled, never pressed, never helped over the top, never buzzed underneath the off coverage. Fitz. not a good day. unacceptable pick in the endzone. that said, why is that play even considered in that situation? under 3 minutes down 2, season on the line inside the 15. you have the lea din your pocket iwth a chip shot FG. all your play calling at that point needs to be conservative. either a run or a route thats either out of bounds or a TD. use the sidelines. a post over the middle traveling 25 yards into the wind is not what id call a great decision, even if we did score on a similar play earlier to marshall. situation is so important there. make sure worse case you take the lead with a FG
they absolutely played scared. and yes, you can certainly take away one of the best WRs in the game. it isnt all that difficult to do, especially vs a team with no other weapons or a great qb. bellicheck has made a career out of it, and WR is the easiest guy to take away. double him, double him and buzz him. evenif you arent doing these every play, do it on crucial 3rd downs. you know what doesnt work. a 10-12 yard cushion with no buzz underneath. we know that because we saw it not work 11 or 12 times
it is hard to throw for 300 yards when you only have the ball for 9 minutes in the first half. defense could not get off the field... msotly because we gave them 12 yard cushions on 3rd and 8 or 4th and 4 for like 5 straight drives
The Bills were without a decent TE, without McCoy and Karlos Williams had all of 6 carries before he left the game. The game plan should have been eliminate Watkins and make Taylor do it on his own. They didn't. This game is deja vu of the Texans game where all they had to do was eliminate one player and the game was theirs. This shows that Bowles hasn't yet learned from past mistakes. As someone else mentioned, they only beat 2 teams with winning records all season. This staff needs to game plan better or next year the team could go 5-11 and we'll all be talking about who the next coach will be to hire.
Bills ate the last 9 minutes of our wind advantage in the 2nd quarter, horrible defense by our overrated defense
