Dan Essien with a film room breakdown of New York Jets DE Sheldon Richardson this preseason through three weeks

Richardson is really raising his value in the market either by trade for the Jets or in free agency. We all know there are few things more terrifying for opponents than a motivated and focused Sheldon Richardson. Let’s take a look at how he has dominated so far against the run and pass respectively.

Hack Attack: QB May Be Frustrating To Watch, But Patience Is Only Option

Scott Mason on being patient with Christian Hackenberg

Christian Hackenberg made his 2017 pre-season debut Saturday night against Tennessee with great anticipation, though the end result was far from exciting.  The second-year QB out of Penn State went 18-25 for 127 yards, mostly on screens and check down passes.  Zero points were produced and only two passes were even thrown beyond 20 yards.

Following the game, some noted the improved decisiveness and footwork or Hackenberg, while others noted that he barely did anything and once again lamented the fact that the Jets seem to have wasted a 2016 second round pick on him.

Hackenberg was firmly entrenched in the “Gabbert Zone” (as the hosts of the Around the NFL podcast like to call it) with a paltry 5.1 yards per attempt, playing it almost unbearably safe along the lines of what ended up getting Matt Leinart cut from the Cardinals at the end of the 2010 pre-season.

New York Jets – Stock Up, Stock Down…

Kyle Fahey on who had their stock go up and who had their stock go down in the New York Jets preseason opener

The Jets came out of the offseason and proceeded to beat the visiting Tennessee Titans seven to three in the first preseason game of the year.

The game was not a pleasure to watch in exception to some few bright spots. At one point I thought I was sitting through a sub par romantic comedy. So many ups, downs, laughs, and tears… except a lot less Ryan Gosling. (more…)
