I'm pretty sure the team is working on some stuff in practice that they aren't going to put on preseason game tape. I'd be very curious to hear from any of you going to the open workouts against the Saints this week to know what you find.
Since the Jets are presumably going to start a rookie QB in Week 1 in Sanchez, showing him less of the blitzes from preseason tape might not be a bad idea. That, plus a gameplan that keeps the TE away from our seams and stuffs eight in the box to neutralize Thomas Jones, Leon Washington and the running game ought to be the formula for success.
It won't upset me at all if we don't see this against the Saints on Saturday. Given the Vikings have a run-oriented offense (albeit one now helmed by Favre), I might be a bit more curious in how the Texans defense looks in that game.
