2011 Week One: All Things Jets Thread

[Midswat]

My sources have confirmed that we will be playing the Jets week 1 of the season.

With that in mind, lets use this thread to post all news related to the team. Consider it a one stop repository just in case Jason Garrett sends any of us a PM asking for our thoughts, we'll know what we're talking about.

And yes, Jason Garrett does lurk here. He sent me a PM after he registered, but I begged him not to reveal his true identity.

True story, amigo.

Jets | Joe McKnight expected to have some plays each week
Thu, 01 Sep 2011 16:50:42 -0700

The New York Jets are expected to have a package of a few plays for RB Joe McKnight each week in order to try to get the ball to him in space because the team likes how he runs when he has space.

cant wait for the jets to start trash talking.

We already have a guarantee from rex ryan.....(not sure if that was for the win or some of the players that he cuts can get jobs banging his wife)

I put dibs on bart scott, tomlinson, revis and rex

Big day for lab work on the NYJ. Built their depth chart yesterday. Talked with a scout that I really trust that likes Ware vs Ferguson.

@BryanBroaddus Likes Ware vs Ferguson in that Ware should win that matchup? Or that it'll just be a great matchup?

.@DCUforums I am about to watch Ferguson myself but he likes Ware aganist Ferguson and the type of pressure he might be able to generate.

Jets Fullback Conner to be ready for Cowboys

Jets fullback John Conner was confident that a left ankle sprain suffered in the team's preseason victory over the Giants would not hold him out of the season opener against the Dallas Cowboys.

"I've been doing everything (to get ready)," Conner — the lone fullback on the team's roster — said. "Strengthening exercises, pool workouts, anything just to be back as soon as possible."

Conner said that he's had ankle sprains like this before and was able to bounce back fairly quickly. He spent most of today's practice with the team's trainers doing individual work.

Conner did try cutting on the ankle as well and said that everything felt fine.

Head coach Rex Ryan also expressed confidence in Conner playing Sunday, but said that backup tight end Matthew Mulligan would be "cross-trained" this week to prepare as an understudy.

Conner will be held out of Tuesday's practice and will go back to his normal routine on Wednesday.

Conner was the FB, that I was wanting last year. The Cowboys seemed really high on him.
