I think I proved conclusively in a thread somewhere that if Greene and Cromartie ever actually came into contact with each other a logical paradox would shut down the space time continuum as Cromartie tried to miss a tackle on the the only back in the NFL who never fails to go down on first contact. This explains why Cromartie whiffed completely on Greene in the AFC divisional round a few years ago. If he'd touched him the paradox would have ensued and God was not ready to go out of business yet.
Why get upset over this when Powell is playing so well? Do the Jets need a running back by committee to have a good running game????? Let's keep feeding Powell with 20+ touches a game. He got better as the game went on. I don't care which back becomes the lead back as long as the Jets have a running game.
This franchise loves to gift away 4th round picks. Tebow, now Ivory. Johnny should have sat tight and not caved. No other NFL team was willing to give up a 4th.
Worst case scenario. ..Ivory will be back after the bye and join Powell and Goodson in the best running back corps the Jets have had since Cumar was in his prime
They didn't have to give up picks to add talent because they were in a better position with their salary cap.
