Ameer Abdullah Is Tearing Up The New York Jets
Fitzpatrick drove the Jets 41 yards on 10 plays on his lone series, although the key play occurred when Chris Ivory went up the middle for 5 yards on fourth-and-1 from the Detroit 30.
“I think the best thing I liked about Laken tonight was him in the huddle”, quarterback Dan Orlovsky said. The Jets finished the game with 123 total yards, 56 passing and just six first downs.
The Jets will be without Geno Smith, who broke his jaw in a locker room incident with a former teammate over a 0 debt. Enemkpali was cut immediately by New York after putting Smith in the hospital. “I saw him do a couple things pretty nice, but down in the trenches it’s tough to gauge from where we are”.
“It looked like our first preseason game”, Bowles said. The Lions have struggled mightily since the departure of Barry Sanders, tonight could be the end of that.Even the great one see’s something in him. Tonight I would like to see if we can get a glimpse of what Calvin will look like in 2015. After all, the first-round draft pick graduated from Duke and has plans to become a neurosurgeon.
With the Lions trying to beef up the running game – or at least the way they attack the running game – there’s some question about who gets the nod.
“He’s got some talent”, coach Jim Caldwell said. He can make you miss.
Most fans will be tuning in to watch Gang Green’s offense under Ryan Fitzpatrick, rookie quarterback Bryce Petty and first-round selection Leonard Williams, but JetNation.com takes a look at a few other players worth keeping an eye on.
On one play, the Jets’ defensive line crashed down and pushed everyone back – except Tomlinson. Mays was brought in during the free-agency period by general manager Mike Maccagnan, after Mays spend last season with the Kansas City Chiefs. But Johnson had one touchdown rush in 155 yards producing 663 yards, news analysts note. He did not complete a pass for more than 8 yards. He was five of 11 for 96 yards and a touchdown.
BRIEFS: DE Muhammad Wilkerson (hamstring) made the trip, but didn’t dress. TE Jace Amaro injured his shoulder and LB Erin Henderson hurt a knee. The 2014 Pro Bowl quarterback dished out a 35-yard touchdown pass to Golden Tate to give the Lions a 7-0 lead with 12 minutes and 36 seconds left in the first quarter.
The Jets face a Detroit defense that was excellent last season, but lost star defensive tackle Ndamukong Suh to free agency.
Stafford came out after that one drive and backup Kellen Moore took over.
