I'm never one to overlook an opponent, but Jacksonville is pretty horrible. Luke McCown will be eaten alive by Ryan's blitzing. Marcedes Lewis and MJD always pose a threat, but I doubt they'll be able to do enough.
I'd imagine McKnight gets the rock if we take a solid lead, but I don't think Powell will be active until late in the season.
McKnight earned about five to eight touches with that block. Hopefully the staff rewards him - maybe we'll see him return kicks/punts since Cromartie and Kerley didn't really stand out. Kenrick Ellis will most likely be active over Bilal Powell. The Jags aren't loaded at running back behind MJD, but running the ball is the only thing that offense can do with McCown under center. I predict a lot of three and outs by Jacksonville.
LOL...neither!! That was a completely reasonable outburst. I am a woman and we are nothing if not reasonable.
Can't really put it better myself. McKnight is a bust, based on what? LT and Greene stayed healthy last year, so there was little need for McKnight. Now, if he was inactive all year last year, you might have a point. But he eventually got activated, and while we never needed him to play, other than that meaningless Bills game, there's nothing to say he's a bust. The only 39 carries he has in the NFL, albeit all in garbage time and games, he averaged 4.8 YPC. You never really want him to be the guy because he's more of a complementary back, a third down back guy who could play the role LT has now. He could completely suck. He could be better than anyone expects. But no one knows because he's never gotten a real chance with LT and Greene in front of him. We'll see if that changes this year.
No, I gave you shit for leaving the kitchen. You said we'll lose to Oakland. I said they won't be as easy as people think, but we'll still win about two scores. People on this board hate the Raiders so they just assume they are a terrible team. That's not true anymore. They have some weapons.
They have weapons, but until they get a QB who can decipher a Rex Ryan defense I won't give them credit. And I like Jason Campbell. The Jets matchup well with the Raiders, and are a tougher team. And I love the fact that this team gave them the worst beating in their own building in the history of their franchise.
i like how he's seeing more time on the field due to his successes. anyone still think woodhead is better?
