We may have lost but we saw what Feeley may be capable of. Lamar Gordon also looks to be the real deal. Did pretty good for a guy signed 4 days ago.

I don't know if Jay ever completed this high of a percentage. We'll be ok. We lost 1st game last year before winning a bunch, then fading away.

We'll be ok. Thanks to Wayne for making Wanny pull Fiedler at the half. Go Fish next week.
 
did anybody notice that Dave kept calling him Lamar Jordan in his post game comments? It is pronounced Gordon, with a hard "G" right? :lol:

68% may not be bad when you consider. this you take away AJ's int which may or may not be his fault. That might be a debate on its own. If you take away the int his percentage is higher. And yeah i think Jay did have a lot of decent completion percentages. But if all you do mostly is 5 yd dump offs how can you not have good completion percentages.
 
Gordon made an impact in the passing game. While it is debateable whether or not he ran the wrong route on that one play, he still caught 5 passes for 30 yards. To make that big of an impact within the passing offense on just 2 days of work is impressive.

One impressive thing about AJ was that he saw Tennessee couldn't cover McMichael, so he went to him often.
 
Lets not get carried away. While Feely did show promise, it must be understood that many throws were made with Tennessee willing to give up the short stuff. Chambers and Booker averaging 7.1 yds. per reception is not going to get it done. For the last few years other defense have not felt a need to defend the 15-25 yard pass routes against Miami. It still remains to be seen if Feely can exploit this zone,(or if the line can buy enough time for these longer patterns).
 
Yeah, but he still only averaged 5.4 yards per attempt! That's a terrble number especially considering the high completion percentage. In 2002 Chad Pennington's completion percentage was 68% for the season but he averaged 7.8 yards per attempt. The eight yards per completion ain't very good either.

Have you watched a Patriots game in the last few years with Tom Brady? The man has made a name for himself doing pretty much that same thing. If you can play a high percentage passing game it's just as good as a killer running game averaging 5+ yds a carry and you keep the clock moving all the same.

smartest post i have read here...............the titans were up 17 zip........we gave feeley all the underneath stuff...........when it was a game your WR were missing in action because our secondary completely shut them down. And our DL killed your ol all day.............The fins biggest problem is no the QB position..............it is the OL followed by the HC and then the GM........then QB............your D is still fine but you have to patch up the left side of the DL...........it uncovered zach and he was just steam rolled all day............on CBRown long run the tivo replay shows him on his back with our C on top of him..........not where you want him...........

...and he led the jets to the afc east title and a playoff berth.
 
The point was that if you complete 68% of your passes you should average more than 5.4 yards per attempt! Pennington average 7.8, which was #2 in the NFL I believe. Completion percentage means nothing if you can't move the ball up the field.

Tennessee did not back off and play a soft zone till very late in the game. When AJ first came in, he was facing a blitz on every down. He still moved the ball well. Even when Miami scored their TD, Tennessee was not playing a soft zone. That TD pass to McMichael was a 16 yard pass.

Uh, Feeley moved the ball. He didn't have a single three and out series. Miami was moving the ball well with Feeley in there, against the blitzes that Tennessee was throwing at them. They were not playing the soft coverage that some would like to insinuate. When you blitz on every play, you aren't playing soft coverage.

Absolutely.

Hey Jets fans ....will you be here next week after AJ "lights it up" on National TV?
