just start the back up guard

Also, I think the Slowik criticism is typically overdone, but today was bad. You run on this Jets team, and the play-action bombs will come. You don't give their pass rush a chance to tee off on you. Also, that trick play in the redzone was fucking trash.

It's predictable, but i also think it helps them spring big plays in the passing game through play-action, and it makes defenses predictable 

Everyone bitches about this pattern, but when they change it up, frequently you're looking at a three and out because the OL fucks it up

Let’s just just be happy cj didn’t go our with a career ending performance

Pitre showed exactly why so many fans wanted them to sign Justin Simmons in free agency. Need better safeties and you can't expect a rookie like Bullock to fix that position alone.

Really need some O-line help too, but we have known that since the off-season. I don't know who is available, but it sure would be nice to get even an average guard to help improve that position. 

This team has a lot of great players in key positions, but a few glaring weaknesses can cause the wheels to fall off on any given Sunday. Trade deadline is Tuesday, so hopefully they make a move or two.

First of all, tough spot in a Thursday night road game against a team that has its back against the wall, on the worst field in the league, with arguably their best player out for another week. The Jets were favored for a reason. 

Second.. left guard has to be addressed. Trade for a league average guy for a 4th rounder if that's what it takes

Third.. the 4th down penalty was chickenshit. DBs touching the guy they're covering to know where he's running so he can keep eyes on the QB is taught and allowed at every level. That was a bail out call that changed the game

Fourth.. Garrett Wilson made two absurd catches that changed the game 

Annoying loss, but this was a "schedule loss" imo, especially with Nico still out. Luckily, Houston winning last week gives them some buffer for a loss like this 

There's no room for reason in this thread. This thread is for illogic and hysteria.

God dammit, since the Cowboys look hopeless for the foreseeable future I was hoping I could pivot to the Texans as my consolation team, but now they look shitty too. Lost to the fucking Jets. This happens every time I try to get interested in the Texans.
