New York Jets and Miami Dolphins Pre-Season Questions

New York Jets

When will the Jets pay admission to Revis Island?
Darelle Revis, arguably the best corner in the NFL, is disgruntled about his current contract.
Revis wants to be the highest paid corner in the League. If the Jets make the investment, they better hope he remains humble.
Revis held out of workouts with the team, but has said he would not miss any time during training camp.

Will Mark Sanchez take a step of maturity?
To start as a rookie in the NFL after only starting one year in college is impressive in itself. For the team to go to the AFC championship with a rookie is almost unheard of.
If Mark Sanchez can handle the hype, it could be another long season for the AFC East. If Sanchez throws another 20 interceptions, the Jets could be going home early this season.
The new Jets jerseys were a good team with the rookie Mark Sanchez, and they could be a great team with an improved Sanchez. Their success almost directly lies on his shoulders.

Will the Jets regret letting go of Thomas Jones?
For a team that made so many blockbuster moves this offseason, they could regret letting go of their leading rusher.
After letting go of reliable Jones, they signed LaDainian Tomlinson. Last season was Tomlinson's first year not rushing for 1,000 yards in his career.
Comparing Tomlinson and Jones, the Jets lost around 700 rushing yards in this swap.
If Shonn Greene isn't ready to carry the load, they better hope Tomlinson jerseys shows some youth.
Miami Dolphins

Can Ronnie Brown Stay Healthy?
After suffering injuries two of the last three years, Ronnie Brown needs to stay on the field in order to salvage his image for the Dolphins organization.
Brown has all of the tools necessary to be an elite running back in this league, but he also has to prove that on the field, not on injured reserve.
This season will be Brown's last shot to prove he isn't made of glass. If he is injured once again, Miami will have to put the running game on Ricky Williams shoulders.
It will be a sad day if Ronnie Brown has to put on another NFL jersey.

How will the defense produce sacks?
Even though Joey Porter and Jason Taylor booked one way tickets out of town, their ages were becoming a concern to this franchise.
The only sack weapon Miami has as of now is second year player Cameron Wake. Wake tore up the CFL by making disruptive plays in the backfield, but his transition to be an every down outside linebacker has yet to warrant much success.
Rookie Koa Misi was also drafted because of his ability to be a complete linebacker, and Miami hopes these two can top the depth chart after training camp is finished. If they can't, they could have a hard time getting pressure on opposing quarterbacks.

Who will be the Kick/Punt returner?
Even though Ted Ginn Jr. was an explosive returner, he was average at best. Apart from his two touchdown game against the Jets, he made many fans scratch their head when he would avoid a hit and run out of bounds.
After his departure, Miami will have to evaluate several players currently on their roster. None of the potential returners have the true speed that Ginn does, but Miami hopes to find a more consistent option than the spotty Ginn.
Players that could compete for the return job are Kory Sheets, Patrick Cobbs, Davone Bess, and Chad Pennington jersey.
