The Jets brought back Revis on board, after he helped the New England Patriots win the Super Bowl. He has been with the Jets for eight years in his ten year career, so he feels right at home in New York. Revis has been playing in the NFL since 2007, so yeah, of course you’re going to see him start to slow down on the field. But is he still a good cornerback? Yes, I would say he is still one of the best. He and the Jets’ defense had their hands full in Week 1 but they handled them considerably well.
The Jets ended up losing the contest 23-22, but it was a quality effort against one of the best teams in the league. The defense is stout, but the offense is going to need some help this season. Most notably, they’re going to need to work on the offensive line, because there are problems to be had.
The Jets still don’t have a right tackle, after going through all of training camp and preseason games, the Jets rotated between Ben Ijalana and Brent Qvale. That’s something you would like to get sorted out in early August, not the second week of the regular season. Regular starter Breno Giacomini is out for at least the first six weeks. The Jets rushed for 152 yards on the Bengals, so they didn’t have much problems in Week 1 but I would be surprised if it stays that way. There will be some games where they look incompetent. Ryan Fitzpatrick has struggled against Rex Ryan defenses in the past.
Tyrod Taylor has been in the NFL for six years, believe it or not, but this almost feels like his sophomore campaign. Last year was his first in a starting role. I think a lot of defenses were caught off guard by Taylor last season. They really didn’t know what to expect. However, now that there is much more game film on him, defenses are going to have a better understanding of what he wants to do. Like several mobile quarterbacks before him, I see defenses zoning in on Taylor and nullifying his abilities. The Jets should be able to contain him. This looks like a game dominated by defense and ugliness. Not on a St. Louis Rams level or anything, but I think points are going to be at a premium on Thursday night. Something along the lines of a 19-13 final looks correct.
