Hopefully in the future the offense puts up enough points that stuff like what happened at the end of the game wont matter as much.
Demario Davis's speed saved the day. If he doesn't make that shoestring tackle on V. Jackson, we're down 6 or 7 and a FG does nothing. Bart Scott or E. Smith would have been left in the dust.
He accepted responsibility for the blown defensive play, that was my point. But the sum total of his defensive game calling was an order of magnitude better than anything in the last 4 years. If you would read the whole comment I said the time out timing needs to improve. But you will continue to dwell on the negative, pick the fly shit out of the pepper to make your point and conveniently ignore all the great shit he did to keep the game close and give us the win. Hell will freeze over for the Jets before fans like you would be happy.
I actually had no problem with blitzing on that third down. Let's not give Freeman all day. The problem was how deep the safeties were. They were playing prevent deep and that's what created a gigantic open area over the middle.
I don't think I'd demonize Rex's full day of playcalling based on one play. In his presser, he took responsibility for it, but also said that the play wasn't meant to leave Jackson uncovered. There was a break in communication from the sideline.
It seemed like he didn't want to throw anyone under the bus in the presser but definitely a busted coverage IMO. Sent from my HTCEVODesign4G using Tapatalk 2
After hearing Rex in the presser, I, too, think he willingly scapegoated himself for the mistakes made by the players, probably to divert any negative attention that would otherwise be aimed at the players.
He does this all the time. If we win, the players did all the work, if we lose it's all Rexs fault for not getting them ready and etc.
End of the first half too. They burned 12-13 seconds, that Timeout should have been felayed in with the playcall.
This is a ridiculous post. The only thing you can fault Rex Ryan for is the blown 14 or so seconds at the end there with lack of prudent time out calls. You can't blame a coach for lack of execution. He doesn't miss the tackle for the player. And, that player WAS in position to make the play. he does that...it's all moot. In fact the lack of execution was the only reason Jackson had so many yards receiving as well. The defenses called were appropriate.
a blitz call like that late in the game is fine if it is 3rd and 18 and you know the guy will have to dump it off. Not here, though.
Sure, but Rex simply cannot help himself bringing the heat... which he shouldn't in that situation. That was -all- on the playcalling... going full out blitz on a 3 and 10 is just not right, especially when they have 1 time out left. (Can't we just let MM or someone in the stands even with minor Madden knowledge handle the clock management?) Landry must make that tackle, true. Last year, we probably would've lost due to Bart's horror toe. Geno did not put us close in this one, finally we might have a QB. Having Q back?... CAN'T WAIT!
The problem was that rex didn't tell any of the players on the field to call the timeouts after the play, and he was left screaming from the sideline and thats what took time. And no reporter asked about that after the game! NY reporters are the worst.
Bullcrap...I can guarantee you that it was discussed before the play. This, actually, goes to the lack of leadership on the Defense. This is where a leader must step up and take charge. I suspect that this will get cleaned up.
Maybe, but I have to defer to Rex's defensive playcalling (and his DCS) to trump yours. I wan't ahppy about it but it wasn't a bad call either. There was a tweet about the Ref not hearing Rex call TO right after the play. Still going back through my twitter feed to find who it was from.
This is being overblown. Rex is a fantastic play caller and always has a great defense. It's a bit silly to question his thought process with those things. I have no problem with the call, not every call is going to be 100% successful. He was extremely successful with that defense all game log and that is the only thing that matters because we did enough to win.
That's right, the play was right in front of me. He was left all alone with the CB blitz. There was no reason to gamble at that point, just a real stupid cal
This indeed is the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth. Particularly Rex die-hard-haters calling themselves Jet fans would rather dwell over one ounce of negativity than over a ton of superior performance. If we win next week God only knows what their feeble excuses would be.
