    Are you kidding me? I know we are not the second coming of the Monsters of the Midway but our defenses under Ryan have ALWAYS been formidable. Revis or not.

    Considering how bad Freeman has been and looked this preseason I can't believe this was put into print...in any form.

    To me, this coupled with the ESPN Power Ranking slap are unacceptable and have firmly established the Media as enemy number one to the NY Jets.

    Just stunned over here....

    Wow, Jets passing defense was #3 in opposing QB rating.

    Eli Manning was 8/20 for 83 yards in 3rd preseason game.

    I don't think the Jets' pass D was a flaw that was "highlighted" during the preseason.

    That's what I'm saying...OK!!!! lol

    Did ANYONE actually draft Josh Freeman?? If they did that pissed a draft spot down the tubes.

    It's just frustrating. I can live with we "suck" or we're going to be bad...etc...but for supposedly intelligent people putting up such drastic drivel is mind boggling and frustrating all at the same time.

    Bahahaha!! Yeah, we lost Revis so our D will be SOOOOO MUCH worse this year. That's their thinking. They are also complete morons since Revis barely played last year. Hilarious how deep the Jets hate goes. I have Freeman as a backup in one league. No I'm not starting him against the Jets. :lol: Hopefully some of the folks playing against me will do just that.

    Well to be honest if I had two QB's on my fantasy team and they were Freeman and Sanchez and they were both starting in Sundays' game...I'd start freeman...no that's not true, for me to have either of those guys on my fantasy team I'd have to have been drunk, high and having a stroke simultaneously.

    And since I don't drink or toke that leaves the stroke....wait I've had two of those...good thing I'm wasn't drafting at the time.

    That would be a really stupid thing to do. Who even drafted Josh Freeman?

    I'm starting TB's defense. Doh.

    Assuming Cro will be on Vincent Jackson, who will be covering Mike Williams? Millner? That matchup would be the only reason to start Freeman, who is a subpar fantasy QB.

    Me too. :(

    I think this team just gets a total overall horrible reputation. This dumb shits that wrote this article probably havent even watched the Jets play. He/She/They probably think Cromartie sucks and have never heard of Mo Wilkerson.

    Its laughable to bet against a Ryan defense when the QB is fucking Josh Freeman. He's a bottom 6 QB, and from a pass defense perspective, we matchup pretty well. Cromartie lives off of WRs like Jackson. Hopefully Milliner can stick with Williams. They have no TE, and thats a usual problem for us.

    I really hope we shut everyone up and win this game.

    My thought exactly!
    I hope someone starts Freeman against me, I'll have a field day mocking.
    Of course whoever does it is not very good in FF anyway.

    Starting the NYJ D with confidence vs Freeman this week. Freeman has 63 TOs in the last 4 years (Sanchez has 69.. lol)

    We need to limit Doug Martin and force Freeman to throw the football. Freeman could end up throwing 2 interceptions before half-time.

    I've seen Freeman implode against the worst defense of all time in the 2012 New Orleans Saints. 4 freaking interceptions.

    Doug Martin starting,yeah. Freeman why? If the Jets suck so bad, the Bucs are going to be up big and running the ball all day to kill the clock.

    Stack the box with a safety at the line, try and limit Doug Martin and blitz the hell out of Freeman. I think we matchup pretty well vs them. Just wish Q was playing to add one more piece.
