You would think the Jets would try to copy what worked from last Sunday's game w/ the Bills, in which the Bills played zone coverage against Brees and simply rushed four, all of whom actually brought some decent pressure. The result: Brees had the lowest passing output and passing percentage this year, resulting in only 10 pts through 3 quarters.
BUT, after reading Jets' coach Rex Ryan's conference call, he's going to do what they do best, and that's blitz the quarterback:

With any quarterback, we're going to try to hit. We're going to try to make sure that he's not comfortable back there, no matter what it takes each week. If that means that we can rush three or if it means we have to rush four, five, six or seven or eight - whatever it takes, we're not going to let him sit back there and beat us to death, I promise you that.
I think we'll do some things defensively that probably aren't really traditional, so it's going to be a lot tougher. If you play traditional coverages against him time after time, he's going to wear you out
