Geno Smith took a little extra time in the pocket Saturday night, knowing he had the luxury of practice rules.
But as he looked for an outlet for the football, the Jets quarterback was strip-sacked by veteran outside linebacker Calvin Pace and the ball was recovered by young safety Calvin Pryor.
It was the type of play that makes Jets fans cringe -- a seemingly avoidable mistake that they've grown accustomed to seeing from the third-year quarterback. But under the bright lights of MetLife Stadium during their Green and White practice, Smith wasn't quite in game-mode mentality.
