Thomas Jones was simply a product of our offensive line during 08 and 09. What happened back in 2007, where he only rushed for I believe 1 TD? My point exactly. Mostly all backs are products of their offensive line, but none more so than Thomas Jones himself. Lets not compare an overrated Jones, to a future HOF athlete such as Tomlinson. L.T has great field vision, an outstanding speed burst, a serious threat catching out of the backfield, great hands and most importantly... Still one of the best pass protecting HBs in the game today, which is what a young QB such as Sanchez needs. Jones is no longer an every down back. Neither is L.T. But you cant question which back is a much better 3rd down back, or which back is a better match for this Jets offense. The answer to both questions would be Tomlinson.
