I said it over and over and over before the game on the board.. And I detailed all the reasons why.. And I also said The Dolphins will show the millions of people on national TV what a fraud the Jets defense is.
I ran down all the reasons in many posts.. They don't have the DE's and pass rushing OLB's needed to be an elite 3-4 defense.. And they have a lot of problems against the run (they gave up almost 300 rushing yards the two weeks before Monday Night).
The Jets defense is just a little above average. It looks a little better because of their scheme, and the confusion they try to deploy against an offense..
But as far as overall talent, it is not close to last year's version of the Baltimore Ravens defense, or last year's Steelers 3-4 defenses... I said it all along.
Tonight was no surprise to me. I fully expected this to happen tonight.
They don't match up well with our O-line, big blocking TE we have who is 6'8 and 270, Fullback Lousaka Polite blocking like a madman this year... And 2 quick power backs like Brown and Williams.
The jets D was overrated by the media and their fans.. It was very easy to pick up if you really watched and studied their games at every position of their front 7.
What sucks though is Miami clearly has more talented DE's and OLB's, but we have a defensive coordinator who doesn't know how to use them properly.. He's clueless and can't run a defense like Rex Ryan can.. There is a reason why Paul Pasqualoni ran that Syracuse program into the ground..
We only sent 4 people most of the time on Sanchez on passing situations.. STUPID ! You have a rookie QB back there who has shown that he makes mistakes with pressure, and we only send 4 ?? DUMB !
How Sean Mmith wasn't locked on Braylon Edwards all game I will never understand.. You have a tall talented receiver like Edwards and we decide to put the shorter Will Allen and Vontae on him on those big plays ?? You have to stick Smith and tail him on Edwards all game.. We have such a stupid D Coordinator.. But we're not lacking in talent aside from one safety and one ILB.
We are lacking in defensive coaching.
