fatboyj711 1 Posted September 30, 2009 Share Posted September 30, 2009 How did NO fare last week against the Bills? NO played @ BUF in windy conditions... brees is one of the most accurate passers in the league, yet he threw some passes last week that even jamarcus would be ashamed of... NO is at home this week... brees is a beast at home... he averages over 330 yds and 2 tds/game at home.... Link to post Share on other sites
Kanter112186 17 Posted September 30, 2009 Share Posted September 30, 2009 revis is great, but NO has a lot of players to defend, moreso than any team they've faced thus far (especially considering walters and welker were out wks 1 and 2)... the jets won't be able to focus on stopping any 1 option... furthermore, colston isn't NO's deep threat so revis may not even be guarding colston the entire game (colston will likely be moved along the formation all day)... with that said, i can see why owners would be somewhat hesitant to start colston vs NYJ but sitting him in favor of sims-walker or washington is an over-rationalized/paranoid move imho... Was does it matter if he's their deep threat? He is the best WR on that field and that's who Revis will cover. Revis has shut down everybody. And from what I remember hearing on how Colston can't stop/start and can only run straight, how is he going to beat Revis? Link to post Share on other sites

I sat him week 2 based on the "he can't run , brees throws to the open guy" speculation in this thread. I'm wary of making the same mistake this week. Maybe Revis will just stay on one side of the field and they can move Colston around. I guess that seems unlikely. Herm. I don't know what to do. Link to post Share on other sites

FWIW, that's exactly what they did against the Eagles. He lined up on both sides, as well as in the slot, and had Samuel, Sheldon and Hanson covering him at various times.....and that was the day he went 8/8 on catches/targets.

SuperJoint 4,169 Posted September 30, 2009 Share Posted September 30, 2009 This whole latest line of discussion is amusing. I don't read this thread much because I don't own Colston, but if I owned him he'd be starting every week. MSW - LOL Link to post Share on other sites

Like I stated before (and was easily passed over) I'm a Jets fan and with the factors of Revis keeping me on edge, not sure what to do, I decided to bench him so I don't have to think of him doing damage against my team.

How is it amusing when we did the same exact thing for Scrabble last year? HOU and NE's offense isn't nearly as good as NO's, especially considering they were missing their 2nd best receiving threats in their games vs NYJ... the jets were able to focus their attention on stopping johnson and moss and force HOU and NE to beat them using davis/jones and edelman/galloway... there are too many threats in NO for the jets to focus on stopping colston... the jets will surely blitz NO throughout the game, but brees is the master of the short passing game, and colston runs a lot of intermediate routes... colston may not have one of his signature big days, but the chances of walker and washington having bigger games is pretty slim...

Which is likely. And if they are going to have similar days, I'd rather not start the one who faces my team. Just a preference. Nate is in there because Jax secondary is terrible and he's a deep threat. Just looking for one big bomb. Also, the last time the Saints played a Rex Ryan defense, they were outscored 35-7 until the fourth quarter. Keep in mind that now the Saints are down two left tackles, protecting Brees blindside.

jmf1015 0 Posted September 30, 2009 Share Posted September 30, 2009 I think you are really overthinking it and letting the fact that you are a Jets fan cloud your judgement instead of helping like you think. Colston is the kind of guy you play regardless of matchup cause he has the potential to have a big day every week. Its not going to happen every week obviously but I'd bet more on Colston over MSW. By the way, I also have both of these guys and Im not even considering playing MSW til he shows more consistency. Link to post Share on other sites

cubbie5150 387 Posted October 2, 2009 Share Posted October 2, 2009 I wish I knew what the Jets game plan was for this game. Same here... Personally, I do not expect any more than what other WR1's have done (AJ & Moss), maybe 4/40, but I just can't sit him. Link to post Share on other sites

Cfused 9 Posted October 2, 2009 Share Posted October 2, 2009 This doesn't change anything for colston since Revis will still be on him right? Still can't decide whether or not to start him this week!!! Link to post Share on other sites
mjb03003 1,974 Posted October 2, 2009 Share Posted October 2, 2009 FWIW I read that Revis is the quickest of the Jets cover guys, so if they have him on Colston all game, it might leave Henderson/Meachem wide open deep down the field. Link to post Share on other sites

With Strickland and Sheppard out, it's pick your poison really. If Revis covers Henderson, Colston will have a field day. There is no one on that Jets team that can cover him outside of Revis.

Mr. Positive 0 Posted October 5, 2009 Share Posted October 5, 2009 Wow, Revis is so good that he not only shutdown Colston but Brees confidence in this game. Thank goodness the Saints D is vastly improved. Link to post Share on other sites
