[Week 1 Opponent Scouting] News on the Jets.

Appears that Shawn Ellis may also be suspended for week 1. That would be in addition to the suspension for OLB Calvin Pace. We've had our share of injuries and M*A*S*H units that we have rolled out. I am not going to shed a tear if we get a depleted Jets defense.

Did anyone else watch them play this week?

The defense is much improved and Ryans has them blitzing from all directions. We will need Pitts and Myers back to full speed.

I love they way Ryans schemes a defense. They overload and create mismatches, the way a defense should be run. They never heard of Bend but Don't Break. They attack, attack attack, how fun is that to watch.

They are not going to be a push over.

I watched the first quarter of the Jets game. They looked like an aggressive, attacking defense, but they'll need the players to make it happen. The Jets were missing Darrelle Revis in the game, so having him back would help them a lot.

Offensively, Sanchez played only a little, but he looked very good with time in the pocket. The tight end, Dustin Keller, is a big target for him, so having Cushing back is going to make that a key match-up.

I think they are entirely beatable if the Texans avoid mistakes. They have the better talent and will be playing at home.

I guess everyone has this link, but here you can find all the preseason game times and scores http://www.nfl.com/schedules#Week

I watched some of game with Jets and Rams last night. I agree with PK that their defensive front 7 looked pretty good including their backups. they were in the Rams backfield all game long, didn't stop atttacking. Their first team offense and defense pretty well dominated the Rams in the early preseason.

I think the RBs will be just as important. Two early sacks were the direct result of the Rams #2RB blowing blitz pickups. Whoever is at RB better be ready to do some pass blocking.

One of those two sacks I thought the Center messed up, but your correct our RBs will need to be up on their blocking schemes.

I've got this on the DVR, I'll check it out and post some reactions, but were the Rams able to get any pressure on Sanchez? That's the key to freakin a rookies game out of whack.

I dunno how many 3-4s we played against last year, but did we one-time do an effective job against one of them ? And I hardly think what the Chiefs were running Satfurday was a serious preview of what the Jets will throw at us next month ? Well this is now a vet OLine and Kubiak has stated that he thinks it's a strength of the team, ao assuming Pitts & White are ready to go for the season-opener were're going to see just how good they are because they will probably be seriously tested ?
