Corrections Needed, but Trust Still Being Built

File Under: Meadowlands, Rex Ryan, New York Giants, Erik Ainge, Dwight Lowery, Aundrae Allison

Rex Ryan was obviously not totally, completely, 100 percent happy. In his opening remarks after the Jets' 27-25 win over the Giants, he had a few bullet points for the week ahead.

■ "We started on our heels a little bit. We had seven penalties in the first quarter, which is obviously not the way you want to start."

■ "I thought our offense was outstanding today, despite the obvious 1-for-11, w… More

QBs Keep On Competing in Drills, Games

File Under: Brad Smith, Kellen Clemens, Rex Ryan, Erik Ainge, Marcus Henry, Mark Sanchez

Whatever happens in the quarterback competition Monday night at Baltimore will be a big part of head coach Rex Ryan’s decision of whether to start Kellen Clemens or Mark Sanchez in the season opener at Houston. But it won’t be the only part.

Defense Reigns in First Practice of Camp

File Under: Chansi Stuckey, Kellen Clemens, Leon Washington, Rex Ryan, Erik Ainge, Kris Jenkins, Mark Sanchez, Howard Green

The defense definitely seemed ahead of the offense at this morning’s first practice of Jets training camp at SUNY Cortland. O-coordinator Brian Schottenheimer’s shouts and some interceptions and too many yellow flags for false starts said as much.

But the offense did hit some plays here and there. One example was WR Chansi Stuckey’s 40-yard touchdown catch from rookie QB Mark Sanchez over CB … More

Spotlight on Clemens, Ratliff ... and Clowney

File Under: Kellen Clemens, Brett Ratliff, Rex Ryan, David Clowney, Erik Ainge

And the Jets' next QB derby is rolling.

Kellen Clemens and Brett Ratliff took the snaps at the first practices of the voluntary veterans minicamp today. And without getting into too much of a snapshot mentality of the competition, KC appeared to have a good day.

Both QBs (Erik Ainge is absent due to a personal matter) had their big-play moments and both missed some open receivers. But Clemens, w… More

Rex Likes Team, Tempo After First Practice

File Under: Thomas Jones, Mike Westhoff, Brian Schottenheimer, Rex Ryan, Sal Alosi, Erik Ainge, Mike Pettine

Rex Ryan presided over his first minicamp practice as head coach of the Jets this morning. And he liked what he saw.

"This is a good football team. We expect to win," Ryan said at his midday news conference after an animated first practice at his first voluntary veterans minicamp under a beautiful blue North Jersey sky. "I think our tempo in practice should be reflective of that."

Rex thought th… More
