Ha, that would be kind of interesting. I for one think Jones probably has some mileage still in the tank.

Greene-Powell-McKnight

Dang it!

Just when we get a glimpse of what Tanny envisioned with Greene-Powell-McKnight backfield combination, two of them get banged up...

Run the ball early and often. Playaction long passes to Hill/ Schillens etc. Keller and Cumby combo should come in useful. Tebow wildcat should be good for some chunk plays.
Defence got to nail Brad's ass

Do you think God would listen to Cimini?

Jones was finished when he was on the jets 4 years ago. He's a horrible, slow, fall down at first contact runner in his prime.

Nice article, thanks for posting.

All things considered, RB is probably the easiest position to replace....running the ball is running the ball.

I hope Grimes can hold up well enough in pass protection so that when he does come in, it doesnt scream "RUN" to the pats.
