New York Jets Pass Defense vs. Cincinnati Bengals Pass Offense
The first meeting was total domination. Based on what we have seen from Darrelle Revis all year, is there a ton of doubt the rematch will be the same? Chad Johnson was shut out Sunday. He may have a new name, but he's at a disadvantage and may be playing banged up. Carson Palmer showed a tendency to try and force it to Johnson. He believes in his guy to win contested balls. Against most other corners, it may be a high percentage play. Against Revis, it's just a bad idea.
Lito Sheppard against Laveranues Coles is another matchup that seems to favor the Jets. Coles was Cincy's leading receiver Sunday, but he only had 3 catches for 19 yards. Andre Caldwell does have speed in the slot to give Dwight Lowery some problems. Cincy's problem is keeping Palmer protected.
New York's blitz overwhelmed the Bengals' blocking schemes. Palmer was hurried constantly. His receivers dropped balls on him, but he didn't really have time to throw. We'll see some kind of adjustments such as more blockers. We'll definitely see max protect. The question is whether it will matter if Carson will throw to anybody other than his covered number one.

Solid as usual, JohnI
I think this is the area we matchup best in. 26th ranked pass offense, vs #1 pass defense.
Bengals lack a consistent slot receiver and besides ocho, just don’t have much talent at WR.
And when Palmer is under pressure, he’s considerably worse.
We’ll make it tough on them on Saturday I think.

This is a mismatch. Take the Jets rushing offense and the bengals rushing D thats a wash. Jets rushing D against the Bengals rushing O thats a wash. Bengals have the edge over the jets passing O. Like crackback said unless Sanchez turns it over I can’t see the Jets not winning this week. It all hinges on the rook.
