Jets offensive coordinator Nathaniel Hackett had an interesting comparison for the Giants’ defensive playbook.
The differences between Robert Saleh and Brian Daboll have never been more apparent“There are a lot of things you have to prepare for because you don’t know what he’s going to select out of his large menu. It’s like the Cheesecake Factory,” Hackett said. “You’ve got a little bit of everything.”
Sunday’s Jets-Giants matchup might hinge on whether the Jets’ offense and quarterback Zach Wilson can handle the pressure Martindale throws at them.Martindale is known for blitzing as soon as he gets off the bus, blitzing on 41.6 percent of pass plays this season. “They’re playing really well the last couple of weeks,” Jets center Connor McGovern said. “They’re still bringing a ton of pressure, but a little bit more condensed. You never know. He blitzed us, he went all out 20-some times in the preseason. I get it’s preseason and the game doesn’t technically matter, but that’s still a lot of zero-pressures. With him, you just never know.”
The Giants’ defensive line had a field day against the Commanders, with more than half of their season-total off 11 sacks coming in that one game.Max Mitchell is the expected starter at right tackle and Wes Schweitzer will likely be the right guard if Joe Tippmann is unable to play, which appears likely.The Jets are going to have to find a way to slow down Leonard Williams and Dexter Lawrence inside and Kayvon Thibodeaux outside.
