8 Practice Takeaways: 8/13

Offensive POD: It was hot at the Atlantic Health Jets Training Center for this afternoon's practice, and Ryan Fitzpatrick added to the sizzle with a heat-seeking 55-yard TD missile to WR Eric Decker, with the ball traveling more than 60 yards in the air. "Chunk plays are awesome, those explosive players. ... I think we're going to continue to get better at that," said Fitzpatrick, adding with some self-deprecating humor, "I think it surprised Deck because such a noodle-arm quarterback threw the ball. But it was a good connection."

Defensive POD: Few NFL defenders are as athletic as Sheldon Richardson.
