Sure, it’s only (or mostly) second and third stringers, but it’s still Jets football. Leave your thoughts about the game here – before, during and after the action, which is scheduled to kick off at 6:30pm ET.

hey if you guys go to the jets site you have pictures of the jets luncheon thing in one of the pics you have big Jenks getting his freak on with sterger
oh about the game, im looking forward to seeing stuckey , keller, and lowery ofcourse , but lowery is different i want him to play Jackson
oh and i want to see Gholston not to look like an idiot out there
i wanna see ALOT of VERNON GHOLSTON…i would let him play the WHOLE game. he needs to get up to speed since missing tho OTA’S so the MORE reps the BETTER! I cant wait to watch just to see WHO ELSE steps up in their LAST chance to make an impression. i bet we’ll get to see alot of RATTY,AINGE,LOWERY,HENRY,MURRELL,CAULCRICK,etc etc etc….lets just get out of the game with EVERYONE HEALTHY!
is the game tonight?
6;30 brotha

You say you just want to get out of the game with everyone healthy. Yet you would play Vernon Gholston the whole game. This makes no sense.
The Jets drafted a defensive end and are playing him at OLB. Give the dude a break.
I have to agree with you guys: The big name to watch is Gholston. IF he’s made some progress, he should tear it up against the 2nd and 3rd string. Also- Lowery and Keller will be fun to check out. They’re two key pieces to the puzzle that can mean the difference between hitting the playoffs or the par 3’s.
Unlike many, I’m a big fan of the preseason because i love to watch these guys playing with their jobs on the line. It’s a test to see who wants it more. Some of these guys will be career special teamers, and that’s great, the league needs roll players. I’m gonna sit back, kick my dogs off, and enjoy this game because a bunch of guys will be out there not for multi-million dollar contracts, but because they want to be there.
I’m waiting to see how Ainge does before I pick my starting team.
I enjoy the preseason too. But the sad fact is that most teams have already made up their mind who is making the team. Depending on what round the player was drafted, the players salary etc. One exception to this has been the Pats.
Why is chansi stucky on defense?
Vernons gotta show us something man. The position change IS NOT AN EXCUSE ANYMORE. no one is complaining about him blowing coverages or anything like that….when hes asked to rush the QB he needs to do that, thats no different than it was in college he just needs to show that he can do it at this level thats all. hopefully hel be able to show something against Justice who gave up 6 to umenyiora last yr. If gholston can get 1/6th of that then that wud be nice to see.
also favre has to get rid of the little yellow thing by his chest pads someone spray paint it gree. Can we not think of our QB as a packer atleast when the game is goin on?
yeah i agree, on favres first play as a jet, when he got sacked and his shoulder pads came out i could swear they still say packers on them
you can see it even when hes just standing on the sidelines
if they’re his lucky pads i say leave em alone
What’s up with Stuckey having 4 tackles?
PAT D,i was basically just saying as much as HARRIS,BARTON,ELLIS play in any REGULAR SEASON GAME is the amount VERNON should play!thats all i was saying…OBVIOUSLY i DIDNT mean EVERY DOWN of EVERY QUATER….i didnt think i had to explain THAT to everyone. you say GIVE him a BREAK?? YOUR the SIXTH overall pick,show us SOMETHING!!?? i think he finished with THREE TACKLES…YOUR RIGHT I’ll give him a break.
actually,STUCKY had MORE TACKLES THAN GHOLSTON!?? thanks JOEMUSTGO for that VERY INTERESTING STATISTIC.
