This is an interesting thread, and while many have said this is a good problem to have, I'm not sure that it is. It SHOULD work out perfectly for the Jets, but we have to remember that this team boasts a QB who's still developing and comes with a gunslinger mentality, and we have an OC who prides himself on outsmarting the defense. Is it possible that the inclusion of Holmes complicates matters by having the team try to work him in?

Do the Jets throw more on 1st down now than they have in the past? Will the team end up in more 3rd & long situations due to trying to hard to take advantage of talent mismatches? It's one thing to have a ton of weapons, it's another thing to use them properly. I think Schotty's done a great job of mixing Green & LT, but now he has to manage those two in addition to making sure their biggest downfield threat sees his opportunities.

Again, it should go well, but I wonder about the Jets getting away from what appears to be a working offensive formula at the moment.
