[QUOTE=sg3;4503480]the Jet running game's major problem last year was our OC NOT using Tomlinson as the run outside, catch passes ONLY on third down change of pace back

BUT using Tomlinson as an alternating series every down back plowing into the middle between the tackles on first and second down

AND

thus taking away those sort of carries from Shonn Greene, a running back more equipped to be a workhorse every down back and run between the tackles


Thankfully, the moron has gone off to ruin the Rams offense AND Tomlinson has retired as a Charger replaced by Sparano who knows how to run a running game and Shonn Greene ready to show how good he is when used properly in a properly coached running game

GONNA BE FUN[/QUOTE]

I think this point is even more evident in the quick and quiet exit of bill callahan. I honestly believe he felt that schotty held the offense and particularly the running game back with his transparent play calling. Callahan tried to leave before last year and was blocked, and left at his first opportunity with no offer for the jets to promote him or negotiate....very much swept under the rug IMO
