We can't ground and pound without a dominant offensive line OR an elite back. I don't think you need both.

Good line + elite back, that works.

Good back + dominant line, that works too.

Good back + good line, you're going to struggle to get 20 points in some games.



Average back + good line
Average line + good back
Average line + average back, or anything worse...

will fail every time. You need a few 40+ yard TDs each year in order to score more than 22 or 23 points per game. It's really hard to do that on the ground.

Sorry, but Jets need dime corners. Trufant is awful.

Trufant has all that speed but has no body control.

He threw multiple passes to Turner, even hit Jordan white in the hands who Drop it.. Yet ur complaining about check downs did he even throw a pass to any of the rb's in this game?

I was on that field a few weeks after it was replaced and it is a nice surface with plenty of "give". The problem, I believe, resides in the cleats these players are wearing now. The cleats are way too aggressive. Meaning look at the outer edge of the bottom and just how many spikes are there. Back in the day there were seven cleats on a shoe now there are four just on the outside edge and twelve across the entire shoe and this is just the one example I can find.

I have a really hard time believing that these new turf surfaces cause more injury than a natural surface.
I agree with you about the cleats.

But sometimes these new fields are not perfect either. It looks like guys feet are getting stuck underneath them.

Maybin's kind of disappointing. Getting blown off the ball.

Like the American flag the Swoosh doesn't retreat unless it's on the jersey of a Jet player on offense.

Sanchez didn't throw any checkdowns that I saw. We called a bunch of short pass plays.

There was one play where a receiver got open on a deep out, but the protection didn't hold up and Sanchez was already running for the first down marker when he was open. He would have also had to throw the ball across his body and against his momentum to get the ball to him, would have been a bad decision to throw it at that point.
