FLORHAM PARK, NJ—Move over, Chuck Knoblauch and Mackey Sasser; there’s a new kid on the Big Apple’s mental gymnastics block.
Thanks to an ample enough sample size of errant shotgun snaps this summer, New York Jets center Joe Tippmann is the kid standing on that block alongside a couple of ghosts of New York’s baseball past.

Ok, perhaps that’s not fair. After all, Sasser and Knoblauch’s issues occurred in more critical environments, whereas Tippmann’s problems have largely happened at Jets training camp.
Still, there isn’t much worse than an Aaron Rodgers-led offense having to deal with the absolute chaos an unreliable snap creates. That’s why the topic deserves serious consideration and why your friendly neighborhood Jets fan’s opinion on the matter reaches every emotional extreme.
After watching yet another New York Jets training camp session on Monday, I believe this article provides the answer to fix Joe Tippmann’s woes. After all, if Tippmann cannot escape the block on the corner of Mental St. and Overthinking Ave., there won’t be much of a point in commencing the 2024 season.
