Keys For Jets

Todd Bowles Placing His Players In Position To Succeed

Forget personnel on either team. For the New York Jets to have any chance of coming away with a victory in Glendale on Monday night, second-year head coach Todd Bowles must put his players in a position to succeed.

We’ve been on it since the beginning of the season.

Bowels, for some crazy reason, is stubborn in allowing his personnel to go lighter defensively. He plays a nickel, two linebackers, in situations that calls for a six or seven defensive back look.

Perhaps with David Harris missing the game, Bowles will be forced to go lighter in pass-heavy situations.

The Defensive Line Must Act Beastly

While trying to fit Muhammad Wilkerson, Sheldon Richardson, and Leonard Williams into the same lineup may be a losing proposition, these guys still must find a way to get it done.

This extremely weak pass defense needs these guys to get to Carson Palmer. They’ll need them in more than one way, especially when it comes to stopping David Johnson as well.
