TOJ Monday Morning Rant: New York Jets Pass Rush
Considering the disappointment of the 2011 NFL season, I find it fitting to kick off the next few weeks with a rant. Today’s topic is the New York Jets pass rush…or lack thereof.
In 2005, John Abraham had 10.5 sacks for the Jets defense. It is the last time a player on their defense has recorded double digit sacks in a single season. We are on six seasons and counting...

New York Jets: Chase Needs, Not Names
Can we just stop it, New York Jets?
No Randy Moss. I don’t want to hear about even a “curiosity” that is being reported already. Did we learn nothing last year about chasing names over needs? Do we forget what happened when we built our entire off-season around getting Nnamdi Asomugha because he was the biggest name on the market even though the team had no need...

Team Mock Draft (2 Rounds): New York Jets
The Jets ended 2011 in utterly embarrassing fashion both on and off the field. Santonio Holmes took himself out of a game (and Rex Ryan didn’t know about it) and had to be restrained from Wayne Hunter in the huddle of the same game. Anonymous players called out Mark Sanchez for his lack of a work ethic while several players including...

The Jets announce their 2012 coaching staff
The New York Jets made official their coaching staff. I would say there really wasn’t much surprise. There was one big surprise though as quarterbacks coach Matt Cavanaugh returned. The prevailing thought was that the Jets would go in a different direction. Cavanaugh returns for his fourth season as the quarterbacks coach. Mark Sanchez set career highs in passing yards...

New York Jets: Wait…What The Hell Just Happend With Wayne Hunter?
Lost in the commotion of Santonio Holmes being guaranteed his contract for the next two years and the Linsanity in New York City, is the fact that the Jets didn’t release right tackle Wayne Hunter yesterday. As a matter of fact, they guaranteed his 2.45 million base salary for the 2012 season.

New York Jets Working Hard to Re-Sign Standout Nose Tackle Sione Pouha
After re-signing wide receiver Patrick Turner earlier this week, the New York Jets are now focusing on another impending free agent, and if they get their way, he won’t hit the market at all.
Perhaps the most unsung hero for the Jets over the last three years has been nose tackle Sione Pouha. A third-round pick back in 2005, Pouha is one of the longest tenured Jets, and one...

Ok, so I may be by myself on this one, but I’m giving it a shot anyways. I want to see the Jets make an attempt to bring back wide receiver Braylon Edwards.
Overall I was pretty happy with the production we got from Plax this year, at the end of the day I just didn’t think he had the burst he used to have back when he was with the Giants. He was a huge threat in the red zone...

New York Jets: Quarterback Coach Remains A Problem
When the New York Jets brought in Tony Sparano as their offensive coordinator, it was a more than a welcome change from Brian Schottenheimer. However, the original perception was that Sparano would be coupled with an offensive coach to oversee the passing game and quarterback position.
The first name being thrown around was Todd Haley…didn’t happen. He is now the offensive...
