So . . . . are we going to do anything about Willie Colon?

    I just read a stat that Sunday was the first time D'Brickashaw Ferguson has had a holding penalty be accepted against him since 2010. For reference, Colon has had 14 holds accepted on him in that span, and 5 more that were either declined or offsetting.

    Obviously LT and RG are different positions, but wow. (Actually I'd expect more holds from the LT as they're the "pass blocker", no?"

    That's a great stat thanks for sharing. I would expect a LT to have more holding penalties too. That is why Ferguson is very underrated. He doesn't get the love from Jets fans that Mangold gets and that's unfair. He is durable (knock on wood), consistent, doesn't get penalties and protects the QB well. Exactly what you want from a LT.
