If Farve is anything it is candid. As far as it being the coaches job to let Keller know he missed his assignment is besides the point. We have a QB that probally knows more about the game of football than most coaches, including our own. Let Farve be Farve. Don’t be surprised if he ignores some of the offensive crap the Jets try to run at times.

I thought the most interesting part was that Favre knew his assignment!

The whole team looked out of sync. D’Brick didn’t know who his assignment was, more than once. The receivers were talking to each other, as if they had no idea what to do (and it showed). On the TD that was called back, Bubba was lost. I think it is a mistake, to not play the starters for atleast one quarter, in the last pre-season game. If they don’t get it together, our QB is going to eventually take one hit too many. It could be that Favre is not calling the right formations in the huddle — who knows.

kixworld in a short answer NO. In the NFL the “rookie” must learn and learn fast . I bet Keller will know his blocking assignments front and back from now on. By Brett calling him out it puts him on notice that everyone knows he missed his assignment and got our QB whacked,and being a rook it better not happen again.

kixworld:
I can understand exactly what you’re saying. But, don’t you think that as a team member you want that discussion kept within the team?

lob job you are right lol but we bring in these old timers to play and pay them crazy money the least they can do is to groom these young players if i was keller i would have to look in the mirror and say i got to keep my head in the game before i get the qb hurt just like what 2004 and last year with our rookies did to our qb the more vocal the better these young guys get ..and thats through exp playing semi-pro for 23 years as a punter on that level.. so i imagin it would work wonders on a much higher level.. hank its a very good thing i can bet you keller will not make that mistake for a while i hope lol

Sorry, my mistake. It should read ‘isn’t that the coach’s job’ ?

i agree but disagree was his quote candid yes it was and yes he called keller out to me thats a great vet teaching a rookie and a future elite rookie that you must get your plays down a qb can get really hurt if you screw up your blocking asignments we are the jets and every player should be held accountable like it or not we need more guys calling each other out big plus if this happens. do your job or sit down
