Much different approach than Jets RT @RapSheet Dennis Allen tells reporters making Derek Carr starter is not week to week. Hope is forever

While at Fresno State, Derek Carr completed only 29% of his passes while under duress. Go get him @mowilkerson @Godforshort @BigDame900 #NYJ

Calvin Pryor tells me he was shocked Derek Carr wasn't a first-rounder. Considered Carr the second-best QB in the draft behind Bridgewater.

(Marcel Reece) is a Pro Bowl FB, but he lines up all over the place. Can Calvin (Pryor) be in coverage on him? That’s a possibility."-Rex

— Brian Costello (@BrianCoz) September 1, 2014
I think #Jets have to be thinking Lankster's abilities on ST didn't make up for his deficiencies on defense, particularly man coverage.

Lankster actually started at CB in the second preseason game. Thought he did a decent job. The CB situation in utter chaos. #nyj
