    I hate when any team does it. Bowles & Rex have been guilty of it; Gase is already ahead of the curve.

    Our back ups played like crap but our starters went. 3 and out. I fail to see how this is a square peg in a round hole
    Did Williams play no did McClendon play no. It’s preseason. All are starters were out after 1 series. Now the coaching staff has film to fix things. Oh by the way I think we found our punt returner

    Our starting D played one series (and not even all of them) and the Giants went 3 and out. Can we not make blanket judgements on how good our defense is based on the first pre-season game when 1/2 the guys who played wont even be on the roster come week 1?

    The Giants threw a 3 yard pass and ran the ball twice in the first drive.

    A good defense would have been out in 2. Greg Williams sucks. We were sold a bill of goods.

    Not really getting too lathered over this....yet. BUT i would get ready for a good amount of penalties against us on D and a below average 3rd down stop percentage.....

    Not the end of the world but we just do not have the horses on the perimeter and at corner. Do believe these will be limiting factors and certainly lead us, to what i believe, will be a poor start.

    Is this based on the first preseason game where our starters played 6 plays and there was no blitz packages or any actual system deployed except the base defense?

    Please tell me that’s not what you’re reacting to.

    If so you’re literally upset over something that has not happened.

    So let me understand this properly:

    You have come to this conclusion watching the 1st Preseason game with the starters playing for like 5 minutes with a limited playbook?

    ok......

    Mac got us personal to play the classic Swiss cheese defense. Williams has to adjust. Sadly there is no protection for stage 4 herpes that seems to have infected our secondary. Mindful meditation might get him through the season without a stroke.

    Holy crap it's the first preseason game, and against a team we play later in the year ... this thread is an overreaction.

    It's really and truly outrageous isn't it? I cannot for the life of me understand how this conclusion was reached when none of this has occurred.

    I'll wait until the games that count are played before judging Williams.

    Williams can only work with what he was given

    Until next years Draft, predict Douglas will get him a kicker and a corner..no world beaters ...but 2 adequate players to start the Season

    But we wouldn't be Jets fans if we didn't over react to everything.

    Your a prime example of what's wrong with this fanbase ! Low expectations !
    Should have been out on 1 play, preferably a strip sack, but I suppose an interception would have been sufficient. Time to raise the damn bar !

    It's totally a throwing league now anyway. Pretty much every team is going to be trying to light us up. We are going to get exposed whether we like like it or not. Our starters... Avery Williamson isn't really even a number one when you think about it. And he's still looking to find his form again. I mean, I get it. We can't leave our CB's alone on an island. But I think at this point Williams is just look for any way to disrupt the offense and get turnovers. Last year our turnover ratio must have been... well I know it sucked. But at this point I think it's just finding a combination of plays that work. Because right now, the first part of our schedule.... eeeeeesh.

    You are absolutely right. It should have been 12-0 with a defensive td ( I concede the missed xtra point) before Daniel Jones got the ball.
    Fire everyone!
