Jets OTA's & Mini Camp News and Notes

[Superman55]

Florio:

Geno Smith - QB - Jets
Geno Smith opened minicamp by throwing three interceptions on Tuesday.
Two of those picks came in the red zone. "Turnovers matter," said coach Todd Bowles. "The thing you don’t want to do is when you’re in red-zone drills, you don’t want to turn it over and give up the three points." Ryan Fitzpatrick and Bryce Petty also threw interceptions on Tuesday. The Jets improved in other areas this offseason, but quarterback remains an issue.

And why is that? How does that fit your love of the Jets? We have two QB's one of which has played well and Geno who has stunk up the joint. But somehow it isn't real because Geno faced the Jet vaunted defense?

So what defense did Ryan Fitzpatrick face? Did he face his old college defense at Harvard?

My love for the Jets doesn't care who is QB..I don't care if Kerley is the QB (go ahead brain surgeons..say he would probably be better than Geno)..I just want them to win....

FITZ also threw a pick and didn't look that great according to the same people that reported Geno's 3 picks....and the main point is..its the first practice, people can funnel what they read into whatever thought pattern they want or have pre-established notions.......just as if Geno was flawless or Fitz was flawless..it is a blip on the radar for the entire picture, and inconsequential AT THIS POINT IN TIME

OH..and maybe the weakest link on our team..has something to do with it..THE OL

Working Red Zone, Geno showing patience. Doesn't force anything when nothing is there & just threw a beauty to Jeff Cumberland for a score.

Just spotted DL coach Pepper Johnson doing push-ups in front of his position group. ....not bad for a big man lol #jets

Seth Walder ✔ @SethWalderNYDN
Jeff Cumberland just caught a TD in 7-on-7s from Geno over Revis and Trevor Reilly. Cc: @DanHanzus.

Eric Allen @eallenjets
Marshall makes it look easy. Blanketed by Darrin Walls on the sideline, Geno takes a calculated risk and Beast displays the hands.

Dennis Waszak Jr. ✔ @DWAZ73
This can't be overstated enough: presence of a tall, physical, red-zone WR like Brandon Marshall is a game-changer in this #Jets offense

Kimberley A. Martin ✔ @KMart_LI
Darrin Walls breaks up pass to Shaq Evans, but injures himself after hitting the ground. Limping to rehab area with trainer now

 

[Superman55]

Rich Cimini @RichCimini
Things you don't see every day; Darrelle Revis gets beat by Walter Powell for a 70-yard TD. Misplayed ball in air. Geno with the pass. #nyj

 

[Superman55]

Eric Allen @eallenjets
S Rontez Miles, who has had a couple of picks this spring, almost had another. But a Petty rope goes through his hands.

Rich Cimini @RichCimini
Geno Smith, rebounding from three-pick day yesterday, having an excellent practice. Ryan Fitzpatrick splitting reps with Bryce Petty. #nyj

Kimberley A. Martin ✔ @KMart_LI
Brandon Marshall wincing and limping on the sideline. Why?

A bunion, he said. ��

 

[Superman55]

Eric Allen @eallenjets
Geno sharp in 7-on-7 Red Zone work. Firing a number of short scores including a pair to Decker.

Rich Cimini @RichCimini
Sudfeld went down after Calvin Pryor lowered his shoulder into him on a catch. Supposed to be non-contact. #nyj

Dan Leberfeld @jetswhispers
Maybe Pryor belongs in the box - the penalty box. Gotta take care of your teammates in mini-camp.

I don't see how you could possibly say the OL is a weaker unit than QB . . .

 

[Superman55]

Eric Allen @eallenjets
Defense holds on a 2-minute drill. Fitzy, who got the offense down the field, had nothing on 4th down as D drops in coverage. Offense runs.

Rich Cimini @RichCimini
Defense wins two-minute drill. Again. Ryan Fitzpatrick-led drive fizzles so offense is running penalty gassers. Again. [URL=http://jetsfansunited.com/forum/usertag.php?do=list&action=hash&hash=NYJ]#NYJ [/URL]

Seth Walder ✔ @SethWalderNYDN
Defense wins the day but Geno had a good practice. [URL=http://jetsfansunited.com/forum/usertag.php?do=list&action=hash&hash=NYJ]#NYJ [/URL]

A player to watch in training camp: Chris Owusu. He's been seeing a lot of first-team reps with Decker/Marshall. Looks good, too.

Connor Hughes ‏@Connor_J_Hughes 36m36 minutes ago
Fitzpatrick isn't having a good practice to this point. He's missing a decent amount of passes

Connor Hughes ‏@Connor_J_Hughes 1h1 hour ago
Ridley looks good cutting and planting to move up the field in RB receiving drills.

Chris Owusu is getting Devin's Smith's reps right now...

Nice to hear some positives about the offense -- even though the defense "won" the practice again, it sounds like Geno was better today and Marshall made some plays.

 

[Football51]

Connor Hughes ‏@Connor_J_Hughes 2h2 hours ago
Marshall jokes that he calls Decker "Alshon" and Decker calls Marshall "Demaryius"

Connor Hughes ‏@Connor_J_Hughes 3h3 hours ago
Geno says the Jets WR/RB/TE will get together to workout over the break.

Based on the tweets I was surprised to hear the defense "won" . . .

 

[Green Jets & Ham]

If anyone should be scared about losing their job to McDougle, it's Milliner, not Skrine...

Milliner has to get a job before he can lose one

:roflmao:

The only job Milliner stands to lose is making sure there's fresh ice in the Gatorade buckets on Gameday.

 

[Lakerfan80]

Walls is above average running with his man along the sidelines imo. I trust Walls to be a dime corner playing outside and step in if Miliner/McDougle have any injury.

 

[Superman55]

Rich Cimini @RichCimini
Brandon Marshall stubbed toe at end of practice, didn't run gassers. Bowles has no injury update on Sudfeld, Walls. #nyj

 

[Superman55]

Kimberley A. Martin ✔ @KMart_LI
Bowles said it would be "wise" of guys to come back in shape after six-week break. "We're not holding spots for anybody." #jets


Seth Walder ✔ @SethWalderNYDN
Bowles praises Marcus Williams and Darrin Walls for their consistency. #nyj

Bowles says Brandon Marshall stubbed his toe. Doesn’t know anything about Sudfeld or Walls yet. #NYJ

Kimberley A. Martin ‏@KMart_LI 7s7 seconds ago
bowles said there were a couple of guys who got "carried away" with the physicality (pryor included). said that'll be addressed
