Recapping 'Hard Knocks,' Episode 4: Where's Revis?
NY Times - The Fifth Down &bull Sep 2, 2010
When last we left "Hard Knocks," the Jets were headed back to New York. With a week to prepare for the third preseason game, where the starters will see the most playing time, the Jets had a great deal of work to do. Outside of LaDainian Tomlinson, the offense has not looked as advertised, with Mark Sanchez looking shaky at best. The first-team defense has been excellent, but the second team has been subpar, to be kind. The Jets hope to see the offense pull its weight while having to make some tough cuts after… Full Story »

Jets Insider &bull Sep 2, 2010
The New York Jets and Philadelphia Eagles will play a game of football tonight. We know that with decent amount of certainty. Sure, the where, when, and what is simple enough. But personally, finding a totally sound explanation for this entire exercise is proving quite elusive. Starters will not be suiting up for this particular exhibition, sparing fans and journalists from analyzing incomplete snapshots of offenses and defenses running mostly base packages. Sure, Mark Sanchez hasn't been overly impressive thus far. And that Left Guard competition isn't… Full Story »
