    Cotch is proving to be more than adequate as our number 1 WR. I don't know what else you want from him or a #1 WR

    Amen! Much like Coles did as well years ago. Cotch and Stucky are fine.

    Cotchery is just fine as a #1. The Jets need to find a real #2 though. Stuckey has been thrown at 21 times and has 10 catches to show for it. That just will not cut it long term.

    As a comparison, Cotchery has been thrown at 25 times and has 18 catches. That's an excellent ratio.

    Just to add to the Stuckey woes, he's had the screen left thrown to him 5 times and has caught 4 of them. That means he's 6 for 16 when the ball is sent his way down the field of play.

    Cotchery=YAC.

    Quoted for truth. Stuckey isn't playing well at all actually he's been terrible. Put in Clowney and see if we have any luck with him.

    Too bad we couldn't have gotten Percy Harvin. That dude would fit perfectly in our offense and is doing really well in Minnesota right now. We need a little quick guy who can get open. There were a couple times today where Sanchez was sacked because our receivers were all covered.

    Stuckey's playing alright.. he's just better suited for the slot. I agree Clowney should be more active.

    Stuckey hasn't been that bad but I agree he's better suited for the slot

    It'd be nice if Clowney was able to emerge as a #2

    Stuck has played fine but he has to make that catch today. We were going in for the game ending knockout punch. Even if we get a FG there the game is probably over. It wasn't an easy catch but he should have caught it.

    We definitely wanted Percy Harvin and tried to trade up but couldn't get it done. Unfortunate but right now we're ok.

    It would have been nice to get Sanchez and Harvin in the draft!

    Im more than happy with Cotch for the time being, however Stuck is no better then an average slot receiver... I really wish Clowney would step the hell up

    Lay off Stuckey!

    He had a really good third down catch on a ball thrown behind him. I had issues with his body control last week, and catches like that show me that he's improving.

    Pleasant little fact: As of prior to the Sunday Night game, Jerricho Cotchery leads the league in receiving.

    Another interesting fact? Revis shut down numbers two and four on that list.

    No. We just need to start getting Leon more involved in the passing game in those kinds of situations. We did a good job of that in the preseason and need to make it an emphasis now. Harvin is a good fit in Minnesota because you have fast receivers outside and the best RB in the game. The entire middle of the field gets opened up for Harvin. Many of us were saying he would do fantastically if Minnesota took him, and he is.

    Stuckey has been pretty good, while Cotchery tore up a team with a corner people think are better then Revis in Finnegan...I bet Sanchez wants Damian Williams though :)

    I was at the game, who's hands did Sanchez's INT hit before it was picked?

    Agreed. That was a pick whether he went for it or not. As it stands, it was all he could do to get his fingertips on it.
