- According to Rex Ryan the starters will be playing at least a full quarter. This should give us time to see Mark Sanchez and the new look offense on at least two drives. Sanchez hasn't had the best preseason but now has the weapons around him to excel. We will get a real time look at how Sanchez's knee looks after offseason surgery.
- Tomlinson has been taking the majority of snaps with the first team offense during training camp so it looks like he will be out there with the starters at the beginning of the game. I don't see this meaning much as I expect Shonn Greene to really carry the load for us this year.
- Matt Slauson is currently winning the left guard battle with Vladamir Ducasse and should get the start tonight. Rex Ryan has even gone as far as to say that Slauson could be the long term solution at the position. This is our first look to see if he is right.
- The defense will be without Darelle Revis as he continues his hold out. This will push Kyle Wilson up the depth chart and will give us an opportunity to see him play against the Giants first team wide receivers. With the Revis situation looking grim it will be good to see if the combination of Cromartie and Wilson can get the job done.
- Kris Jenkins will be back anchoring the middle of the defense (although I don't expect him to be in there for many plays). This will be a welcome site to Jets fans who thought the season was over last year when he went down to injury.
- Vernon Gholston has had a good training camp adjusting to his new position and he will look to continue that in tonight's game. This season is the last one for him to prove that he can be a good, productive football player before the Jets cut ties so he has to make the most of every opportunity.
Seeing the Jets come out on the field for the first time this season tonight will be exciting even though it is a preseason game.
