Jets OTAs (May 2014)

[Badger]

I wonder how it would be if the Jets had 1/2 the beat writers they currently have.

What if we just got the bad half?

June 2013


According to the Newark Star-Ledger, Jets TE Hayden Smith has "impressed" in OTAs, and "come a long way since 2012."

On a positive note, Stephen Hill is on pace to be first team all pro this season

Stephen Hill has worked with the first-team offense at OTAs and minicamp.
"He's looked good during the spring," wrote ESPN New York's Jane McManus.

I don't even pay attention to positive excrement from the beat writers. I write them off altogether.

What if we just got the bad half?

We have a good half?

We have a good half?

What if we just got the *worse half?

Oh excrement.  Two beat writers said that Vick had a bad day of practice and Bart Hubbuch's stupid derriere said he would be cut if it weren't for name recognition. 

Season's over.

What these clowns don't understand is that there will be hiccups in a passing offense, especially for new players.  Our new tight end and #1 receiver are learning the offense and so is Vick.  I know he played for Mornhinweg before, but that doesn't mean he should be perfect. 

You have got to stop taking things you read on Twitter so seriously.  Their opinions on are based on a few overthrows, drops, and missed reads.  I don't give a damn what a bunch of journalists think. 

It's not about taking things "so seriously." They're reporting what they see and I'm repeating and speculating. This isn't even training camp, so I'm not saying this is the be-all-end-all of everything.

They're reporting what they see and I'm repeating and speculating.

Only some of what they see.

[AlioTheFool]

Only some of what they see.

That's fair enough.

I certainly have no love for the media. Especially the NY sports media. I'm vocal about how I feel they warp everything to shine the most negative light on everything. That doesn't mean none of what they say is true, and again, I'm openly admitting I am just speculating. It's the off-season and there isn't much else to discuss.

Maybe Vick was really hungover that day.

Anyone else care to speculate?

Manish Mehta does...

Per source, Mike Vick drunk at practice.  NYJ circus is back.

Manish: Vick training with Joe McKnight during offseason

Well its still June...

The Newark Star-Ledger lists Michael Vick as one of the "duds" at Jets minicamp.
Jets OG Willie Colon, who is injured, and third-string QB Matt Simms were listed as the other "duds." Per beat writer Frances Micklow, Vick "still has the arm and athleticism, but seemed to struggle at times" in non-contact practices. Geno Smith has built a relatively comfortable lead entering training camp. Vick could still pay off for the Jets as a willing mentor to 23-year-old Smith.

Of course this balances it out,meaning I probably should take absolutely nothing from the article

Studs:
• WR Stephen Hill
• OL Oday Aboushi
• CB Dexter McDougle
• WR David Nelson
• S Calvin Pryor
