We need to against the Jets is...

I like the Jets DL better than the Ravens DL, but when you add in the LB's as well, Baltimore has the better overall front 7.

Antonio Allen, Darrin Walls, and Kyle Wilson though...haha

Yeah, pretty pathetic secondary...although Baltimore just cut 2 out of their top 3 healthy corners after getting burned by Ben.

I read that Darrin Walls is out this Sunday and I'm sure his replacement isn't any better...

Attack! Attack! Attack! Every play on defense go after Vick and pound him. If Geno Smith comes in do the same thing. On offense, plan to go into this game throwing the ball. The Jets front 7 is pretty good and I doubt we have success running the ball so don't waste possessions using the run to set up the pass. Just throw to set up the run. I would also dust off the no huddle to exploit a weak secondary and wear down the Jets front 7.

with all of that. Especially the green part.

How many sacks you guys think Harrison will have!?

and I was so high on Kyle Wilson when he came out. I really wanted the Steelers to pick him. LOL! You should be so glad I'm not the Steelers GM.

Considering what our offense has done the past 2 weeks, I would have to think that Rex is gonna do everything in his power to get to Ben. They can't cover our WR's. I think they will sell out to pass rush a lot on Sunday. We'll see a big dose of stunts and blitzes. With them looking to penetrate quickly, traps, draws, screens and quick slants might be big early. Get the front 7 slowed down a little then go for the throat.

We're gonna have to stop the run early. They run block pretty well and have 2 good backs. If the Jets have enough success running to work in some play action, they could hang around. Their focus is gonna be ball control, possession time, rush the passer.

If there's one thing Rex knows, its his D. They're going to come after Ben big time. They will aim to keep him unsettled so that he cannot find time to take advantage of their weak secondary. The Oline is going to be very key to this matchup. Its Munchak vs. Ryan.

Jets are well-grounded

The Jets’ No. 3 rushing offense will face a Steelers defense that is ranked 25th in the NFL in yards allowed per run. It’s one way the underdogs could pull off the upset on Sunday.

“They have three really good running backs,” nose tackle Steve McLendon said.

Those would be Chris Ivory (497 yards, 4.6 average), Chris Johnson (337, 4.3) and Bilal Powell (98, 4.7).

“You have a good offensive line with good running backs and on top of that you have quarterbacks who can run,” McLendon said.


Michael Vick has run only 16 times but has 110 yards, and the Steelers have seen his act in the past, often to their detriment.

“Michael Vick is still Michael Vick,” McLendon said. “He still can run, he’s very quick, he’s very fast.”
