I forgot to do this yesterday, but I was experiencing computer problems anyways so it may not have even mattered. I decided to put every other tweet in blockquote format this week instead of just doing half the page that way. I figured it would be easier on the eyes like this. Without further ado...

A Few Quick Practice Notes From Last Week
Santonio is out here doing WR drills, ran & did a sharp double cut. Not quite full speed, maybe 80%, looked good though
— Chris Nimbley (@Cnimbley) August 26, 2013
Santonio Holmes runs quick in passing drill, makes leaping catch. #babysteps #Jets— Greg Logan (@GregLogan1) August 26, 2013
I’m at Jets camp today. Really striking to me how John Idzik intensely prowls the sidelines dressed like a coach during practice.
— Bart Hubbuch (@HubbuchNYP) August 27, 2013
Rex says #Jets tried to simulate no-huddle today. "I don't think we did a great job....Should be interesting playing against Philly"— Kimberley A. Martin (@KMart_LI) August 27, 2013
Notes From Thursdays Game
Michael Vick and Geno Smith were just chatting at midfield. #nyj
— Brian Costello (@BrianCoz) August 29, 2013
Santonio Holmes in full uniform taking warmups. Obviously won't play but a good sign nonetheless. #NYJ — Chris Lopresti (@CLoprestiWFAN) August 29, 2013
Antonio Cromartie not playing tonight, but quite chatty on the sideline, appearing to shout advice to teammates.
— Darryl Slater (@DarrylSlater) August 29, 2013
That 4th & 1 was a play wholly designed to see what Simms was made of. Looks like he passed the test. — Brian Bassett (@Brian_Bassett) August 30, 2013
Rex said they wanted to get Kyle Wilson some kick returns. That is why he played tonight #NYJ
— Brian Costello (@BrianCoz) August 30, 2013
Tweets Regarding Santonio Holmes
Rex says the Jets are "just phasing in" Santonio Holmes. He says "we’ll see" if Holmes can play Week 1 vs. Tampa Bay. — Bart Hubbuch (@HubbuchNYP) August 27, 2013
Santonio Holmes on how far he is from 100%: "I would honestly say a long ways..." #NYJ
— Chris Lopresti (@CLoprestiWFAN) August 27, 2013
Holmes said he's feeling "off and on" pain and he was "a little bit sore" on Sunday after running routes Saturday. No abnormal pain, he said — Darryl Slater (@DarrylSlater) August 27, 2013
Santonio on his seemingly sudden activation from PUP: "That was an up-top decision." #jets
— Kimberley A. Martin (@KMart_LI) August 27, 2013
Holmes on coming back at less than 100%: "I have a long career ahead of me so I'm going to take the best risk for myself and for the team." — Darryl Slater (@DarrylSlater) August 27, 2013
Holmes talked to Shaun O'Hara before the game last week about his Lisfranc injury and talked dos and don'ts. #nyj
— Brian Costello (@BrianCoz) August 27, 2013
Holmes is getting treatment three-to-four times a day: "I think the treatments have really helped speed up the process." — Kristian Dyer (@KristianRDyer) August 27, 2013
Holmes said he's been doing drills in practice the past two days but no team work. Has also logged time on the stationary bike.
— Darryl Slater (@DarrylSlater) August 27, 2013
Santonio notes he didn't have an offseason, so that will affect the speed of conditioning. Also adds he has "a long career" ahead of him — Kimberley A. Martin (@KMart_LI) August 27, 2013
Santonio said he's still searching for "the right shoe." #jets
— Kimberley A. Martin (@KMart_LI) August 27, 2013
Tone says he is making good progress, says he is really limited. Has come a long way, but has no timetable for return. — Eric Allen (@eallenjets) August 27, 2013
Holmes on if he's downplaying his recovery: "Why would I do that? I’m being honest with you when I talk to you." #nyj
— Seth Walder (@SethWalderNYDN) August 27, 2013
Said this to someone in a reply: I wouldn't want to play poker against Holmes. Feel like he is staring through my soul when he answers ?'s. — Chris Lopresti (@CLoprestiWFAN) August 27, 2013
Tweets Regarding Mike Goodson
Rex says he's "really happy" to get Goodson back. Says he thinks he'll be able to get up to speed in 4 weeks on the offense. #nyj
— Brian Costello (@BrianCoz) August 27, 2013
Rex doesn't think Goodson is that far behind in terms of knowing the offense. Says conditioning will be the biggest challenge. #NYJ — Chris Lopresti (@CLoprestiWFAN) August 27, 2013
Goodson says he's familiar with #Jets offense because it was similar to Raiders' so not too concerned about being behind. #Jets
— Dennis Waszak Jr. (@DWAZ73) August 27, 2013
Goodson says he was a little nervous about how he'd be received by teammates but they welcomed him with hugs. #Jets — Dennis Waszak Jr. (@DWAZ73) August 27, 2013
What can RB Mike Goodson bring to #Jets offense? A 'spark,' he said. "Given 4 weeks to prepare, I think I’ll be pretty explosive."
— Kimberley A. Martin (@KMart_LI) August 27, 2013
Mike Goodson said all the right things yesterday, including that he has grown and matured the past month. — Kristian Dyer (@KristianRDyer) August 28, 2013
Tweets Regarding Geno Smith
Geno Smith on his ankle: "It feels pretty good. Still not close to 100% yet." #nyj
— Seth Walder (@SethWalderNYDN) August 26, 2013
No matter where you stand on the Rex/Sanchez issue, one thing is clear: the injury will cost Geno the game reps he needs on Thursday. #NYJ — Chris Lopresti (@CLoprestiWFAN) August 28, 2013
Geno Smith on not playing tonight: "In our current situation with Mark (Sanchez) being down, you just can't take any risks." #nyj
— Manish Mehta (@MMehtaNYDN) August 30, 2013
Geno says it was "really helpful" 2 b next to Marty M as he called game. Adds, "Whether I'm ready or not I guess we'll find out on gameday." — Kimberly Jones (@KimJonesSports) August 30, 2013
Is Geno Smith preparing like he'll be Wk 1 starter v Bucs? "Yes sir. Business as usual. That’s something I’ll always do whether I am or not"
— Manish Mehta (@MMehtaNYDN) August 30, 2013
Last time Mornhinweg addressed the media, sounded like he was leaning towards Sanchez. Seemed more comfortable with his experience. #NYJ — Chris Lopresti (@CLoprestiWFAN) August 31, 2013
That being said, he did speak highly of Geno's long-term potential. A lot of different voices and factors here. Very interesting. #NYJ
— Chris Lopresti (@CLoprestiWFAN) August 31, 2013
Idzik was allegedly the guy stuffing Geno down Rex's throat. Rex was a "Sanchez guy" to a fault. That theory isn't looking so good now. #NYJ — Chris Lopresti (@CLoprestiWFAN) August 31, 2013
Bottom Line: Jets believe they'll have more diverse offense w/ Geno Smith. To them, healthy Geno can do more w/less around him than Sanchez
— Manish Mehta (@MMehtaNYDN) September 1, 2013
Dana Holgorsen, on ESPN radio w/ Lupica, on Geno: "He was one of the few leaders that we did actually have on the team." #nyj — Seth Walder (@SethWalderNYDN) August 27, 2013
Holgorsen on Geno: "Football means more to him than anything. If he has any flaws he’s really hard on himself." #nyj
— Seth Walder (@SethWalderNYDN) August 27, 2013
Holgorsen continued: "He’s a student of the game, he really is." #nyj — Seth Walder (@SethWalderNYDN) August 27, 2013
I've said it before, but it's worth repeating re: Geno Smith: I haven't seen the character flaws that were reported in run-up to draft #nyj
— Manish Mehta (@MMehtaNYDN) August 27, 2013
Bovada lists Geno Smith at 12/1 to win offensive rookie of the year. #nyj — Seth Walder (@SethWalderNYDN) August 27, 2013
Tweets Regarding Rex Ryan
Did Rex overreact last night in his contentious press conference or is this being hyped too much?
— Kristian Dyer (@KristianRDyer) August 25, 2013
btw, I wouldn't label Rex's presser an "epic meltdown." We've seen some epic meltdowns. That's not one. Strange & unusual? No doubt. — Dennis Waszak Jr. (@DWAZ73) August 25, 2013
Rex called it a "possibility" that Jets name starting QB day of Tampa game. #nyj
— Seth Walder (@SethWalderNYDN) August 27, 2013
Sad to watch Rex — a proud, accomplished guy — become a listless puppet. I’m trying to imagine Buddy Ryan doing the same, but I can’t. — Bart Hubbuch (@HubbuchNYP) August 27, 2013
Puzzled why consensus seems that Rex won’t be an NFL head coach again after this. Wannstedt, Crennel and Mularkey got second chances, folks.
— Bart Hubbuch (@HubbuchNYP) August 27, 2013
Prisco's take on the Manish/Rex situation: "Rex morphed into Bill Belichick for a night. That's bad. He knows he's dead man walking." — P. Schrager (@PSchrags) August 28, 2013
Cut-down day over. I'm told Rex Ryan didn't reach out to players that were let go today. Rex @ Clemson (son is walk-on football player) #nyj
— Manish Mehta (@MMehtaNYDN) September 1, 2013
Tweets Regarding Mark Sanchez
Mark Sanchez is like that bad boyfriend that keeps telling you he’s going to change, then after a few weeks starts his bullshit again. #Jets — Deb (@LilMissNYJet) August 24, 2013
Interesting list -- Rookie QBs who started for playoff teams the last 5 years: Ryan, Flacco, Sanchez, Dalton, Luck, Griffin, Wilson. — Albert Breer (@AlbertBreer) August 25, 2013
#Jets M.Sanchez is owed $8.25M for 2013 season. That's $485,294 per in season week. He has 68 td passes & 69 picks in #NFL career #SportsBiz
— Robert Raiola, CPA (@SportsTaxMan) August 25, 2013
Interesting note on Sanchez, who was riding stationary bike: He was only using left arm on moving handlebars. Right arm at his side. #Jets — Rich Cimini (@RichCimini) August 26, 2013
Jesus, people really need to stop this 'Why would they play Sanchez behind 2nd stringers?' Ummmmh, that's what happens to 2nd string QBs
— Chris Nimbley (@Cnimbley) August 26, 2013
Willie Colon on Sanchez: "He’s battle-tested. I feel like he’s strong enough. I wish sometimes he’d say, ‘F-- the media’ or ‘F--- that' #nyj — Manish Mehta (@MMehtaNYDN) August 28, 2013
Sanchez is on the sidelines in shorts and a Jets training shirt. Just saw him throw a pass...with his left arm.
— Kristian Dyer (@KristianRDyer) August 29, 2013
Tweets Regarding Ryan Spadola
Huge crowd around @DolaOcho in the locker room. Writers, reporters, TV cameras. I would have taken a pic but had too many questions to ask! — Chris Lopresti (@CLoprestiWFAN) August 26, 2013
from Idzik and Rex anymore. Spadola has outperformed every other WR in Camp Competition.
— Brian Costello (@BrianCoz) August 29, 2013
I'm going to say this now so it's on the record: Really like Ryan Spadola. Think he could benefit from Holmes missing time, if that happens. — Erik Frenz (@ErikFrenz) August 29, 2013
Ryan Spadola says Wayne Chrebet reached out to him last week for encouragement. Spadola said that e embraced Chrebet's advice. Nice gesture
— Manish Mehta (@MMehtaNYDN) August 26, 2013
Other Jets Quoteables
Q: Vlad, is this the best summer you've ever had? ...Vlad: "Yessir!" #jets — Kimberley A. Martin (@KMart_LI) August 26, 2013
Asked Jason Smith how it feels to be back. "Look at this carpet, it's so green. It's beautiful." #nyj
— Seth Walder (@SethWalderNYDN) August 27, 2013
McKnight on his emotions after getting cut: "I really don’t feel anything. I’m numb to the whole situation." #nyj — Brian Costello (@BrianCoz) August 26, 2013
McKnight on organization: "Everything they’ve done for me was real good. I have no bad feelings toward them." #nyj

Matt Simms said his father Phil wasn't at the stadium to see him lead #Jets past Eagles. "But he watched from home, I believe" — Dennis Waszak Jr. (@DWAZ73) August 30, 2013
Matt Simms: "I just know I went out there & played as hard as I could. And we'll see where it takes me." #jets — Kimberley A. Martin (@KMart_LI) August 30, 2013
Feeling real good about the next 11 days.

Former Jet Anthony Becht on Genos Performance Against the Giants
#Jetsnation after watching last nights game GenoSmiths performance was one of most accurate I've seen a QB in NY since Chad Pennington..cont
— Anthony Becht (@Anthony_Becht) August 25, 2013
(#Jets cont).. stop reading the papers,reading terrible tweets and looking at stat lines. Lets start w/ the INTs. (1) Spadola catches...cont — Anthony Becht (@Anthony_Becht) August 25, 2013
the ball then the DB takes it from him...not Geno's fault. (2) throws ball across middle with pressure in face..Geno must stand in...cont

(#Jets cont)..and deliver that ball..play he can learn from..confidence to do that will come. (3) Tuck makes a great play & surprises..cont — Anthony Becht (@Anthony_Becht) August 25, 2013

saw 3 bad balls..one of which was INT over throw to Winslow. #Jets fans if you don't get excited about the QB your seriously lacking..cont
— Anthony Becht (@Anthony_Becht) August 25, 2013
in your ability to judge good football play. Off performance there's no question Geno Smith is the game 1 starter vs the #Bucs — Anthony Becht (@Anthony_Becht) August 25, 2013
Folks I'm not SHOWING ANY FAVORITISM towards Geno because he went to #WVU. THE TAPE DOESN'T LIE! And neither does my assessment
— Anthony Becht (@Anthony_Becht) August 25, 2013
I have no problem w/ Sanchez playing in 4QTR. I did it in my 10th year. I hope he's ok but truth is Geno would have avoided those sacks. IMO — Anthony Becht (@Anthony_Becht) August 25, 2013
Also the #Jets offensive line played there ass off in protection. kudos for their improvement. Was a bit rocky first 2 games.
— Anthony Becht (@Anthony_Becht) August 25, 2013
My analysis means nothing as far as Geno's future, but just from last nights first opportunity w/ 1's...he took advantage #jets — Anthony Becht (@Anthony_Becht) August 25, 2013
Looking at the game copy the first INT Geno threw was def behind WR,but Spadola def needs to help his QB out. It's a tweener,bit late though
— Anthony Becht (@Anthony_Becht) August 26, 2013
Rest of #Jets game was exactly how I saw it. Kids got a shot in time if org continues to build around him — Anthony Becht (@Anthony_Becht) August 26, 2013

Rex is hoping that he'll have Kenrick Ellis for Week 1. #jets

Jets have an average age of 25.6 years old, per @JimmyKempski: 7th youngest in the NFL. #nyj— Manish Mehta (@MMehtaNYDN) September 1, 2013
