Giants QB Eli Manning throws pick six against Jets
If he can just be careful not to force the ball down the field, the Jets will be just fine. The Jets won’t carry seven tight ends, and Saturday’s game will help them make their final decision. “I was telling my teammates, ‘I’m going to crib this one.’ It was there”. However, he may never get that opportunity.
Gary Howell, an incoming freshman at Phillipsburg attending his first NFL game, suggested dividing the parking lots, so Giants and Jets fans wouldn’t have to interact.
Charlie Karbowski, a volunteer firefighter at West End Hose Company No. 3 in Somerville for 40 years, said, “I don’t like the Jets at all”. “It’s not my first competition battle”. I wish it had a bigger factor on the healing process, because he has been in a good frame of mind ever since last spring. Muscle strain in his knee.
“No, not at all”, he said. I think there was a little hesitation there on Eli’s part. My mindset is when the bell rings, just be ready to go.
Coughlin said his offense was inconsistent in providing protection for Manning and the running game averaged 2.6 yards in the first half, leaving the teams facing too many second-and-long situations.
“He brings a lot of toughness”, Bowles said recently. The most notable developments up front was that center Weston Richburg missed the game with a knee issue (he was replaced by Dallas Reynolds), and Geoff Schwartz played extensively with the first team at right guard. As one boy observed during the sprints at Wednesday’s practice: “The fat guys are the slowest”. “He’s been having a good camp”.
In other games on Saturday the Kansas City Chiefs continued to look impressive in their preseason warm-ups. The point is that the Jets’ coaching staff had already penciled in Williams to seamlessly replace Richardson, and not lose any of the stoutness in their run defense.
One team is looking to return to contention after a few down seasons, and the other is hitting the reset button after the previous regime bottomed out.
Beckham smiled and shook his head when asked if it meant anything to him to be able to get his first preseason receptions against Revis.
“Yeah, that I belong on this team”, he said.
It has been one heck of a preseason for the teams with New York in their moniker.
Colon was a fourth-round draft pick of Pittsburgh out of Hofstra in 2006, and won a Super Bowl with the Steelers to cap the 2008 season.
The former Baltimore back, released by the Ravens after his domestic abuse case, is available and waiting for a second chance.
Expect Ryan Fitzpatrick to start the game as quarterback, with Matt Flynn getting some playing time as well.
If these times seem a bit slow, well, the players aren’t trying to break Usain Bolt’s 100-meter dash record of 9.58 seconds.
“It’s fun to be here, no matter what age you are”, said Marion Martin of Westfield, who finally admitted she’s 75 years old and still works full-time as a bookkeeper.
Could Manning get a big contract?
“I don’t know if I remember feeling like this past year, but you don’t want to feel unsure going into the season, especially when the first week is a division opponent”.
