If we\u2019re looking at it from the numbers standpoint, we never threw X amount of touchdowns, alright, no touchdowns (joking), but it was much more competitive than that. I I tip my hat. I think our offensive line did a nice job protecting the quarterback against traditional rushes, four-man rushes (and) five-man rushes. It got a little dicey when we had some exotics out there. Dennis (Thurman) put in a couple things. That was a little tough, but other than that I thought our protection was decent. I was really impressed with our tackling. Most of the time when you start your first real live tackling, minus goal line situations, you have a lot of missed tackles but I don\u2019t think that was the case today. I was happy with the way our defense tackled. And then obviously the communication I think really from both ends, I think our communication was good. I think there\u2019s a lot to gain by it. Obviously, we scrimmaged a lot more than we had done in the past. We had our guys going against each other several times. I think it was good for us to push us a little bit. The weather has been kind of cool but I think the guys, conditioning-wise, it was pretty good.<\/p>\n<p><strong>On Geno Smith\u2019s performance\u2026<\/strong><br \/>\nWell, I thought it was pretty decent. I thought he did hit the one deep ball. I think you\u2019ve got to give credit to the defense. I think the defense, the coverage was pretty tight. Guys did a great job and I think it started with communication. That\u2019s the big thing. If we communicate well, we know what we\u2019re doing defensively, it\u2019s going to be a tough unit.<\/p>\n<p><strong>On the defense\u2019s goal line stand\u2026<\/strong><br \/>\nIt was awesome. (I) love it as a defensive coach. You want to punch it in there. I love the fact that Marty (Mornhinweg) ran it four straight times. It was like, \u201cNo, we\u2019re going to knock it in there.\u201d To the defense\u2019s credit, that wasn\u2019t the case. I was happy to see it. The collisions down there are pretty fierce.<\/p>\n<p><strong>On Rontez Miles\u2026<\/strong><br \/>\nWell it\u2019s true. I talked about the depth all camp at safety and, oh by the way, our first-round pick (Calvin Pryor) hasn\u2019t practiced. I think that\u2019s it. We have a lot of good football players. Rontez is one of them. He got his chance to shine a little bit. And sometimes the cream rises to the top and obviously Rontez had a big night.<\/p>\n<p><strong>On if there were any injuries besides Jermaine Cunningham\u2026<\/strong><br \/>\nNo, I think that was the one. I think the little big man I call him, (Jeremy) Reeves slash Revis, take your choice (joking), he kind of got stepped on at the end there. I was worried about him a little bit. I think he\u2019s going to be alright. But yeah, Cunningham, it looked like he came out with a knee or a leg. I\u2019m not sure really what it was. I don\u2019t think it was a knee but obviously he wasn\u2019t able to continue so I\u2019m concerned there.<\/p>\n<p><strong>On what he would like to see more of from the offense\u2026<\/strong><br \/>\nWell, I just think we\u2019ve got to keep progressing and I think we will. This night I thought we ran the ball at times effectively. And some of the times I thought we threw it well. Just put it together, keep working and I think good things will happen for us.<\/p>\n<p><strong>On Greg Salas having a good practice\u2026<\/strong><br \/>\nHe did. All Salas does is catch the football except that one drop. It\u2019s funny, but that\u2019s what he does. He\u2019s not a blazer by any means but he certainly gets the football. He gets open and he competes as a blocker, so those are all encouraging things.<\/p>\n<p><strong>On if the quarterback reps will be the same next practice\u2026<\/strong><br \/>\nYeah, absolutely.<\/p>\n<p><strong>On if Salas had a performance that stood out like Leger Douzable\u2019s Green &amp; White performance last year\u2026<\/strong><br \/>\nYeah, I think we know a little more about Salas, though, because he was on our roster for half the season. But again, it is. Something like that, guys will jump out. You guys mentioned Rontez Miles, that\u2019s a young man that jumps out. Jaiquawn Jarrett has been outstanding, by the way, at this camp (and) might be playing as well as anybody. Again, I\u2019m also excited to see our rookie (Calvin Pryor) get out there. I think he realizes, he looks out there and it\u2019s like, \u201cYou know what? Every one of these guys can play,\u201d and that\u2019s a great sign for the Jets.<\/p>\n<p><strong>On if he was disappointed that the offense did not score a touchdown<\/strong><br \/>\nNo. That we couldn\u2019t get in the end zone? Not really because I think, again, we had the one\u2019s with the one\u2019s it wasn\u2019t like we\u2019re softening up. We hope we don\u2019t give up a whole lot of points. We don\u2019t anticipate giving up a whole lot of points with that group and it\u2019s just great competition. And I think we\u2019ll just continue from there. And again, I think when we tee it off for real on Thursday night, I think we\u2019ll probably put up some points.<\/p>\n<p><strong>On if Michael Vick still looks fast\u2026<\/strong><br \/>\nOh yeah. Shoot. My gosh. The dude can flat fly and we know he can. And (Chris) Johnson still looks like he can run. We definitely have some speed. But against Mike it was funny. I think the funniest play was when he had that big 20-yard run. He knows where the sticks are. We didn\u2019t have a stick up there and he still found it. The most impressive one was when Garrett McIntyre, he sees that it\u2019s Vick and he\u2019s like, \u201cOop.\u201d He changes his angle and just flies to the sideline. It\u2019s like, \u201cYeah, that\u2019s pretty smart right there,\u201d and starts grabbing his hamstring a little bit. So yeah, Mike, he can absolutely still run.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Rex Ryan spoke to the media after the NY Jets completed their Green &amp; White scrimmage at SUNY Cortland on Saturday night. \u00a0JetNation was there and here is our New York Jets Training Camp Recap (Green &amp; White Scrimmage). 7,149 is the official attendance &mdash; JetNation (@JetNation) August 3, 2014 Opening Statement\u2026 Overall I was [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":6,"featured_media":25740,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2}},"categories":[213],"tags":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-25734","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-jet-news"},"acf":[],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/miletestsite.com\/jets\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/scrimmage2.jpg","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/peLffi-6H4","jetpack_likes_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/miletestsite.com\/jets\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/25734","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/miletestsite.com\/jets\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/miletestsite.com\/jets\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/miletestsite.com\/jets\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/6"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/miletestsite.com\/jets\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=25734"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/miletestsite.com\/jets\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/25734\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":25742,"href":"https:\/\/miletestsite.com\/jets\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/25734\/revisions\/25742"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/miletestsite.com\/jets\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/25740"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/miletestsite.com\/jets\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=25734"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/miletestsite.com\/jets\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=25734"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/miletestsite.com\/jets\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=25734"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
