Is there urgency to work out deal with Haason Reddick? | Jets Final Drive | SNY

the thing that stood out to me was the Jets defense should we be a little concerned in how much was this Hassan reic wasn't part of the team yet JJ uh I I'm not looking at this as a Hassan reic issue uh necessarily J now don't get me wrong I'd watch that game from the Jets and I'd say wow it might be ho us to go and get a guy who's been a double digit sack machine in the building as soon as possible but this is about the Jets inability to stop the run Chris mcaffrey did not play on Monday night and I know Kyle Shanahan is a brilliant offensive coach and the Shanahan way going back to Denver with his dad it's Mike Anderson orlandis Gary Alfred Morris they know how to find running backs and get the most out of them but this jet defense they got a whole lot of Bluster they got a whole lot of bravado they act like and talk like they are one of the best defenses in all football and and they have been one of the best defenses they have J they're good they're very good they're not as good as they think they are in my opinion I think they're a very good defense and I think because the offense has been so bad over the last few years there's kind of been this buil an excuse of oh well we don't have a quarterback oh we're putting these bad spots and some of that is true but there are also instances where this defense hasn't gotten a big spot and specifically last year they did not do a great job of stopping the run that that's obvious and when I hear the head coach talk to Troy a and Troy shared those comments during the game saying hey when we need to stop the run we'll be able to do it well from what I saw yesterday we talk about a weakness guys I think the Jets have a lot of Talent on the defense they have a lot of star players on their defense there's there's no getting around that but at the same time they allowed eight consecutive scoring Drives By the San Francisco 49ers that's unacceptable and I expect this defense to be angry and ticked off and play a lot better against the Tennessee Titans but you're a championship caliber defense I'm sorry eight scoring drives in a row is completely unacceptable yeah one pun over the first drive and Hanan reck is is a a I mean he had Defensive Player of the Year votes a couple years ago so would he have made a difference for the the Jets yeah probably I mean you're talking about a guy who's had double digit sacks the last four years I mean you add him to this defense next to quinnon Williams opposite Jermaine Johnson with Will McDonald working in there as well like yeah you're gonna notice that you're gonna Feel That You're Gonna that that's going to make a difference for this team but the Jets did not lose to the San Francisco 49ers and I don't think that Hassan reck would have Chang the outcome of this game because as JJ said the problem was that they couldn't stop a nose bleed on the ground it was every time they turned around and handed it off to Jordan Mason he was picking up four five yards a carry and that the pass rush that I do believe is going to be solid for the Jets to good for the Jets to potentially very good for the Jets without Hassan reck they didn't have an opportunity to pin their ears back and go and Rush the the passor because they weren't looking at third and eights they weren't looking at third and 10 they weren't looking at third and sevens it was third and two it was second and five it was second second and six they didn't know what was coming because the threat of the Run was there and then once they really established the run it was play action hit George KD play action hit Debo play action and go over the top of the defense that's what hurt the Jets and when the defense has to as soon as that ball fake comes out and the defense has to pause and goes wait that slows him down a tick and that's going to allow Brock py who already has one of the quicker deliveries in the NFL to get that ball out quick get that ball out quick get that ball out quick if you look early in this game the first two three possessions I thought the Jets generated a decent enough pressure and the defense was doing their job where things truly started to fall apart it was a combination of not stopping the run the 49ers establishing that run working in the play action but then also the Jets offense inability to sustain drives which again the drop by Lazard on the first possession of the fumble y y y at one point I think the time of possession battle was like 2548 to 11 for the Jets seven of those minutes came on one drive seven of those minutes came on one drive so you just I don't care who's on your defense you're not going to be able to especially in week one across the country after a long flight your endurance is going to wear down at that point but when it comes to missing Hassan reck I don't believe that Hassan reck was the player that the Jets missed the player who I believe the Jets missed who would have made a substantial difference in this game and I think potentially could have flipped this game was the guy who's playing for the Denver Broncos and that's John Franklin Myers because it is very hard to unell how important he had been to this team over the last few years as that ability to be a run stuffing force on the outside of defensive end then kick inside and be a pass rushing presence on the inside the Jets could survive losing Bryce Huff if it meant they were just putting giving those snaps to Will McDonald what it is hard for them to survive because they haven't figured out how to do it just yet is when they had to trade John Frank Lem Meers because they couldn't afford to pay both jfm and Hassan reck they now don't have Hassan reic they don't have jfm and they're trying to figure out a way to make it work one of the reasons we saw Quinn Williams playing defensive end was they're trying to use him now to fill that jfm role a role that they didn't need to get rid of if they didn't trade for Assan reic so the player that they miss it's not reic yet he would have made a difference he's a dominant player but they really needed jfm on Monday night
