Will the Jets do a lot of blitzing today? (1 Viewer)

Jets fans have been lamenting the lack of an aggressive defense as a major contributor to the Jets woes.

Will we see the Jets go after Chad, or drop back in coverage?

I don't see the advantage of lots of blitzing. Although I've not see a lot of Pennington He seems to have have two characteristics. Level headed and accurate short thrower.Blitzing can be effective cutting the time for guys who like to throw long. Or rattling the inexperienced QB/OL. I'm not sure any of this applies against Miami.Cover heavy short and let DL beat their man 1 on 1, occasional blitz to shake things up. I guss I assume they've been doing the occasional blitz.

When teams played against the Jets and they had Chad, teams sent the house, worried little about the long pass and in the process helped shut down the run....

The Jets the past few weeks have done less than not blitzing, they have sent their 3 down linemen and that's ALL, a lot of the time.... This gave a lot of maginal QB's a lot of time to sit back and find a WR - If they let Chad sit back and find a WR, It'll be a disaster.... Chad needs to be HIT.

Will the Jets do what I think is obvious. What they should have been doing most of the season - Run the ball and BLITZ????

Who the hell knows.

sutton is a moron, and mangini is coaching scared. So the answer is no.
