    There a a million things to pick on with this team, but the one I can't fathom is why is Greene still the primary RB? I was excited when Powell started the game, but then he got pulled to put in Captain 2.5 Yards. Sanchez shoulders much of the blame, but when they can't generate ANYTHING on the ground, it doesn't help him any.

    Tebow should be our starting RB and I am 100% serious.

    Everybody on offense sucks. Im done defending Sanchez, and Greene is absolutely terrible. I dont know what they see in him... Our talent evaluation is about as horrific as Greene's ability to find the hole.

    He looked so good as a rookie. I don't know what happened. But then again, Thomas Jones also looked great, as did LT his first year. Did Damian Woody really make that much of a difference?

    i go back to what i said during the summer. start mcelroy and get rid of tanneybum.

    btw: the rams are 2-2 under shotty. is he a genius? or, do the rams have a better staff picking the draft choices, in addition to the offensive coordinator?

    the jets should clean house at the gm and scouting dept. sparano and sanchez should go also. with the trade deadline at week 8, the jets should be sellers. however , with the albatross contracts tannenbum gave to sanchez and holmes and scott, good luck getting even a 7th. :shit:

    Lets not forget that Greene used to be a pretty solid back for us but now our O-line cant get upfield worth a damn. Power backs without an O-line do not succeed.

    Yeah, Sanchez should go if he keeps this up, but Tanny fucked us when he guaranteed him next year. People say that this guy is only good at accounting and contracts, but he might be even worse at this. I dont even want to think about how fucked we are with all of the contracts given to shitty to mediocre players- Sanchez, Harris, Pouha, Holmes, Scott, Pace, ect.

    Next all we need is to give Greene a big contract!!!

    You are delusional if you think Greene isnt a problem.

    Because the guys on the depth chart at RB aren't even good enough to be backups. I mean, where are you going without a top notch RB, especially when you have a QB who cannot carry the game with his arm? I don't know what this Front Office is thinking or if it is even capable of thinking.

    Of course the Jets are going to have better draft choices, they pick in the top 5 every year. The Jets are 2-2 as well, remember? And you can't just be sellers at the trading deadline, this isn't baseball where players regularly get traded midseason. The Sanchez contract isn't Tannenbaum's fault, it was his rookie deal. And Scott's not making much at all this year, he restructured so he wouldn't get cut.

    Greene for three. But this whole offense is a mess. Sparano doesn't know how to utilize the guys he has. Tebow comes on the field as QB then they call timeout because of miscommunication and then Sanchez comes back in. The coaching is horrendous.

    I missed the first half, did Jonathan Grimes get any snaps today?

    I don't understand why they continually feed the ball to Greene his two and three yard carries are horrific.
