J-ALL-DAY Posted September 3 Share Posted September 3 The wait is finally over! We dealt with a lot of drama throughout the offseason and still have some going with Williams still unsigned, but it's good to have the games start for real now. This is a bit of a weird game to predict. There is so much uncertainty for both teams that it is hard to get a good feel for the game. Aiyuk just signed and no one knows what kind of shape he's in but it's a fair bet that he starts the season somewhat slow. I don't think it will take him a month to get going but the Jets have a good secondary as it is so I would not expect much from him on Monday night. Then you have CMC who has been dealing with a calf injury for much of training camp so who knows how much that lingers into the season. Of course, the biggest concern is starting Moore at LT over Williams. We saw how the team played without Williams last season. The Jets have a QB who has barely played any snaps since 2022 and is coming off a major injury with a revamped OL. Oh yeah, their stud pass rusher that they traded for in the offseason? Still has not reported to the team as he's looking for a new deal, similar to Williams. Offensively, I feel like we will have to run the ball heavy to start the game and continue sticking to it even if we aren't having great success. We all know CMC is a stud but again, who knows how much the calf injury bothers him so I am expecting Mason to get 10-12 carries. He is going to have a good game. I don't think expect much from Aiyuk so I think we find ways to get Deebo and Kittle the ball and go with the two that were there for practice all camp. The Jets edge rushers may not be great without Redick, but they don't have to be great to have success vs Moore and McKivitz. Our interior OL likely will have issues, though Puni may be able to hold up decently well when matched up against Williams. Defensively, our secondary is going to be the best unit of the three and it may not be close. This is even with Hufanga missing likely to miss the game. The Jets have a stud RB in Hall, who very well may lead the league in rushing and the have a budding WR in Wilson who just needs average QB play for the first time in his career to shine. Looks like Williams will also be a go so the Jets have two WRs that can win deep. I like the roster the Jets have but it's just so hard to predict how Rodgers will play. I think as the season goes on, he's going to be just fine but this game has defensive struggle written all over it. One underrated loss in this game is going to be Guerendo in the KR game. I would not be surprised if Shanny gives Deebo a shot but Guerendo looked like the guy if he was healthy. We also don't know if Jennings will be able to go as he missed the last few weeks of camp. Our offense is not going to put up huge points, especially without Williams, and even if he signs in the next few days, he's not going to be his usual sharp self. This is a Jake Moody game and he's going to show us exactly why we took him in the 3rd round!!! 49ers 23 Jets 17 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SFrush Posted September 3 Share Posted September 3 Interior pressure from Hargrave and Collins will be the biggest key. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
N4L Posted September 3 Share Posted September 3 Very worried about our run defense. Our LBs are so bad and our DL is not what it was. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XScutterX Posted September 3 Share Posted September 3 Hope this is true and gets done today. Let's get this crazy offseason over with... Last year I had questions about this team coming out of training camp. I was a little worried about Pittsburgh week 1. Purdy calmed that with a dominate performance. Hopefully that happens Monday.

J-ALL-DAY Posted September 3 Author Share Posted September 3 Well, let's hope so the deal gets announced today. The real practices this week will take place on Thursday and Friday. Williams signing today allows for him to be on the field on Thursday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J-ALL-DAY Posted September 3 Author Share Posted September 3 Good! I wonder if Jennings also returns to practice today. Again, not the most ideal offseason by any means, but looks like we should have everyone back for our game next Monday night. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh, our run defense is going to get shredded all year. Key will be the same as last year - put opposing offenses in a situation where they have to abandon the run Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hadn't seen your post and had the same exact thought. Not sure what this means or if it changes anything Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
