Darrelle Revis Has Strained Hamstring

by John B on Sep 20, 2010 7:15 PM EDT

Darrelle Revis' hamstring is strained as per Revis in his interview today:

On how strained the doctors said it was…
They just said it is strained. They said it could take one to two weeks, or it could take a week. It depends on how my body recovers.

On whether he will play or not against Miami…
I don’t know yet. We’ll find out when I actually get to run on my legs.

On how his hamstring feels right now…
Standing right here talking to you guys, I don’t feel anything. As soon as I raise this (his leg) up a little bit, it’s a little tight. That’s how I feel right now.

As I said last night, he should sit until he's 100%. If he's playing at less than full strength, his value diminishes. It's best to get him completely healthy opposed to letting this thing linger or potentially get worse. The next two weeks feature teams, Miami and Buffalo, lacking dynamic passing games, Brandon Marshall aside

Yea it's a great time for this to happen, if you can say that about an injury.

The way Miami is throwing the ball we certainly don’t need him this week, and not against Buffalo either.

It's funny

Yesterday I was watching the game with my friend who likes the Giants as soon as he saw Revis grab his hammy he started yelling your done. I was like your sleeping on Cromartie especially against long tall receivers with longer strides. Cromartie against smaller quicker opponents worry me but the Moss’s and Marshall’s of the world don’t worry me as much.

Just my opinion

But I believe Cro may have a tough time with Marshall. He is very physical unlike Moss and loves fight right back with the db’s. Marshall is great at catching the ball and making people miss and racking up YAC. Cromartie’s main weakness is tackling and if the Jets send the house on the blitz I think Cromartie will have a tough day defending Marshall and making the solid tackles that Revis would make. I think you will see alot of safety help over the top which will definitely help our run game.

I agree that Cro shouldn’t be on Marshall. I’d put Wilson on him with Pool in the box to his side. Play Wilson off and make Henne read slant and jump the route with Pool, or at least have a tackler in the vicinity to help bring him down.

If Henne wants to squeeze the rock and look deep, all the better. We should be blitzing the A-gaps heavily this game. With all the new interior o-linemen you guys have, the calls are bound to get screwed up and allow lots of free runners. It also would help out against the run.

I think Wilson to young and small right now

Leave Cro on him he’s strong enough, he’s played strong receivers before, putting a rookie on him is tough.

Put a rookie on an elite WR, great idea

He’s already betterthan any corner you’ve played so far. He blanked Welker in the second half on Sunday night, Welker is a better route-runner than Marshall. Marshall is all about physicality. Wilson is much more physical than Cro. Cro is allergic to tackling.

I do like Kyle Wilson

He is talented as hell and I think he’ll be a very good CB, but the fact is he is a rookie and he is error prone.

Not that worried we got dolphins then the…dun dun dun… BILLS (Oh No!) lol I say put Cro on marshall i think he can hold his own if anything give him some help over the top. You guys wanna keep putting wilson on the other teams best recievers & that not gonna get us anything but beat. He’s gonna be good but he’s still a rookie i say we put him on their #2 wr and give him an easier day and give the fans less to worry about.

we got Green Bay, Houston, and Cincinnati

Better to have Revis healthy for those games, not forgetting the Pats again and the Steelers with big Ben

who do the steelers have besides mike wallace and a 60yr old hines ward?

by JetsFan718 on Sep 20, 2010 11:23 PM EDT up reply actions

They have a two time super bowl winning QB

The Jets should play zone against the Dolphins, just like they did against the Pats, and hope they can blanket recievers, although Bess and Hartline seem very hard to stay with. Rex has to choose his spots to send the blitz’s, because it seemed like Miami picked them up very good in the games last year. Then you always have to worry about the Wildcat, so should be a good game.

I agree with Jon in that they should let Revis get back to 100% before playing him. I think he wants it that way also don’t expect to see him for the next 2 games.
