<\/a><\/p>\nOn the play preceding this one, the Jets were called for a false start penalty, which forced them back. \u00a0On this play, Petty seems to go through his progressions (As mentioned in the other articles, with the lack of coach’s film, it’m all but impossible to tell for certain if anyone is open downfield or what the defense is showing) before deciding to run with the ball. \u00a0 Petty shows excellent pocket awareness as he steps up in the pocket and good mobility as he runs for ten yards. \u00a0It’d be advisable to avoid such hard hits in a pre-season game, but this is a player fighting for a chance, so he takes the risk here. \u00a0 Petty is underrated athletically and he can definitely move around in the pocket if need be. \u00a0Unfortunately, the first down marker is two more yards away. \u00a0However, the mobility and pocket awareness on this play is very good.<\/p>\n
2)\u00a0 This is a quick pass play, and Petty makes a good read. \u00a0His first read is the slot defender on Myles White (16), thus if that defender moves towards Marquees Wilson (10), then White is open for the pass. \u00a0Since the defender stays with White, Petty hits Wilson for the pass. \u00a0The corner back on Wilson lights him up with a very good tackle on this play, but this is a good read by Petty and the throw is on the money.<\/p>\n 3)\u00a0 Pinned near their own end zone, Petty makes another pretty throw. \u00a0Notice that Petty goes through the progressions well on this play. \u00a0His first read is Anthony Firsker (40) who is covered, so Petty moves onto his second read in Chad Hansen (6). \u00a0He throws a laser pass to Hansen, which goes for a first down. \u00a0The third read would have been receiver 86 (He is not on the official roster) but since Hansen was open, Petty made the right decision to throw the pass.<\/p>\n 1)\u00a0 The Jets are in a 3rd and 5, and Petty makes an absolutely great throw. \u00a0This pass is better than the long pass to Robby Anderson from Josh McCown earlier in the game because he leads the receiver perfectly on this pass. \u00a0All the other receivers are well covered on this play, and Petty “throws the receiver open” because he’s covered as well when Petty decides to make the pass. \u00a0Myles White, the receiver just “alligator-armed” the ball and it goes for an incomplete pass. \u00a0White has been cited numerous times for dropping passes in practice, and this is a horrendous drop for him, even if his hand may not have touched the ball. \u00a0If you substitute Robby Anderson for Myles White, this may be a touchdown. \u00a0Although, the counter would be that the defender facing Anderson would also be better than the defender facing White.<\/p>\n 2)\u00a0 On this play, Petty is sacked before he can even step up in the pocket. \u00a0The protection absolutely collapses around Petty from all sides on this play, and the RB misses a free running defender up the middle. \u00a0Both tackles also seem to get beat on this play, which essentially means that Petty didn’t have a chance to make a throw. \u00a0 The blame for this can’t be on the QB because the Jets have 6 blockers for 5 defenders, yet three of them still manage to get a hit on the QB before he can get to the top of his drop back.<\/p>\n 3)\u00a0 This is a bad throw, but it’s extremely borderline. \u00a0Watch the defender on Chad Hansen (6) as the ball is being released. \u00a0The defender pulls the shoulder pad of the receiver, which causes Hansen to lean towards the inside, and then take another step inside before he goes towards the sideline to try and catch the ball. \u00a0That jersey pull throws off the timing of this throw, because Petty has to make that throw before he gets interfered with. \u00a0If Hansen gets a clean release, this throw is exactly on point. \u00a0This should have been a penalty. \u00a0Petty makes a good read, and throws the ball before Hansen is open. \u00a0He showed a very good ability to predict success in the route and throw the receiver open again. \u00a0Unfortunately, that extra jersey pull makes Hansen move off the ball, and you can see him arguing for the flag afterwards.<\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\nPetty Let Down:<\/h2>\n
