It's not as silly as you may think? The Jets defense has fallen from grace recently. They were ranked 25th overall last year? Does anyone even know the last time this defense was that poor?
This, while the Jets spent the first 3 seasons of Mac's tenure investing 1st round draft choices on defense. In fact 6 in the first 3 rounds of every draft? Now, the defense is facing a season with an almost totally revamped DL? We all know how most snowflake Jets fans will routinely just pass over the DL as being a concern. But I wonder what will be the larger concern this season? Everyone touts the secondary and they're probably right to be excited about that part of the defense. But the big question here is can they stop the run? With one good player in Williams and a newbie sure to be on a learning curve and little guy linebackers in back of them? I would think Jets fans should watch this very closely because this will be the tipping point between a decent defense and a truly bad one?

O because of the switch to zone on the Oline.

O. Don't know who the QB will be. Is Teddy gonna be halthy? is Darnold going to be ready? Is McCown gonna not suck again?

Honestly I think the whole team is a ? but I would have to consider D the biggest? of the 2 only because we haven't invested in a rush but we should have a decent secondary. If somehow it is addition by subtraction without Mo then maybe the D could be decent but who really knows at this point.
On the other hand for better or worse the O is coming back relatively in tact from last season. I think We should have decent WRs and RBs as long as the line isn't horrible and the QB position has to be considered less of a ? than last year considering McCown is more of a known quantity and Bridgewater and Darnold HAVE to be better than the scrubs from 2017.

Wow - Macc really sux at picking players. Badly:
"The defense hasn't scored a touchdown since 2013, easily the longest drought in the league."

O surprised last year and think no matter who is at QB we will be OK to begin season.
So I think D is still biggest question mark. We need to generate a pass rush on D, and with our secondary, on paper we should be able to make that happen. Also need Lee to make a jump and get to the QB.

To be fair, at least when it comes to defensive scores, the problem started long before Mac. Tanny and Idzik sucked at picking players that could cause turnovers. Rex and Toilet have never coached it? They all suck. |

I just don't think the defense is settled? They have bad coaching and that makes gaining chemistry between the players that much harder. They also have a lot of chemistry to work on with so many new faces. Most of all they have many new faces with far less talent than before. There's no longer anything special about the DL.

This question is like who is worse - hitler or Stalin? They both are terrible. O sux and D is suspect. No RB, No OL, No WR, Rookie/2 year Absent/ old no body QBs. No pass rush, small/ bust LB, suspect DL against the run, with just a strong secondary. Sooo, the team has no playmakers and the GMs is in year 4. Maybe ST will be good. Probably not though. Worst roster in the league. |

Reading some articles in the paper about the opening of training camp and it is so obvious there are really a bunch of nobody scrubs on this pathetic team - interviews with jermaine kearse (he’s the number 1 WR?), a bunch of RBs no one ever heard of, talking up mcclown. Pathetic losers. The only thing interesting about this team is the rookie QB and Teddy’s comeback. The rook QB who wouldn’t even be here if Macc had his first choice of Kirk cousins. Imagine how craptastic that would have been? They are gonna suck this year and probably be a Boring snoozefest. Again.
There’s like 6 pages of giants stories and a page and a half of Jets boredom. Mayb when they move to Nome they will get top billing in the sports section of the Nome Daily Refrigerator & Times - although probably not. They would get second rate coverage compared to moose hunting and dog sledding. This franchise is doomed to a frozen dank dark grave.

At this rate you’ll be sucking on a shotgun by the 3rd game of preseason |

Actually I should have mentioned ST as well? As I look at this team right now, the biggest short term difference they could make toward winning is two points:
1) Improve the ST coaching. Since Westhoff retired our ST has sucked. The healing could start with a decent coordinator.
2) Improve the talent. There are no Leon Washingtons or Brad Smiths on this team. Guys like that made a huge difference in many different ways.
