The New York Jets struggled with blocking from the get-go of this season. But perhaps things are changing?
That dominant O-line won’t be coming this year. But the Jets made some major changes on the offensive line before last week’s game against the Patriots, and for the first time this season there’s a reason to believe the offensive line can be reliable.
There were some ugly moments, but mostly the o-line gave quarterback Zach Wilson time to throw and graded out well — even if there is still some work to be done in the run game. Tippmann actually graded out as the team’s highest rated offensive lineman in his first career start. Tippmann, who played center in college said that the Jets had been cross training him at both center and guard since soon after he was drafted. We saw him play both positions in training camp and the preseason, but Tippmann said all the work he put in made the transition easier when they told him he was starting at guard not long before the Patriots game.
Becton has also been a big surprise and a major reason for encouragement on the offensive line. There are still some questions about his pass-blocking: he gave up four pressures in Sunday’s loss to New England. But to play every snap in the first three games after going two full years without any game action is an accomplishment that should not be ignored.
