    Probably already etched in stone as Hall off tackle for 2.3 yards but I would like to put in a request if LaFleur wants to be fan-friendly.

    Just let Hall have the ball...not really but if that's what Miami will be looking for, let them see it - then play action it to Conklin for about 25 yards and see what he can do with it after the catch. Might be tough to give him enough time to get downfield so keeping him in the run look and breaking Moore and Wilson could be what Jets opponents have gotten lazy enough on to get a head start. Why wait?

    Does that count as offensive?

    I will take a 5 yard pass to CJ Uzomah at this point. I said it in another thread... I dont know if MLF is being cautious and not opening things up because Zach was rusty or the OL is a mess or we're starting two rookies in Garrett Wilson and Hall, but his insistence on playing it unbelievably safe/stupid on first down is frustrating beyond belief. It's also killing us on 3rd down when we're forcing the QB to complete an 8 yard pass and the entire defense knows it. That has to change ASAP if we want Zach to develop and not have a defense teeing off on him all game.

    Same play as Darnold's 1st NFL play that resulted in a pick-6.

    The phins weakness on defense is short passing. If Xavien Howard misses the game that could change though.

    Now there is some real positive thinking by someone that roots for his team. Which team is the question

    First offensive play of the game will be by Miami, as the Jets differed after winning the toss. So I’ll take Q sack for 8 yards please.

    I bet Zach doesn't throw an interception on that play.

    That comes later in the fourth to seal the victory.

    Love that one. Kinda depressing to see how the team’s relative trajectories have turned out since, though.

    Zach hasn’t found his touch. ICYMI his 8+ yard passes are more accurate than his dump offs.

    We will continue to run on 1st down until we need a big play and then we’ll do a play action. If we don’t need a big play, we’ll keep it in our back pocket.

    Well it’s worked extremely well so far so I don’t see why would change it up. You’re right.

    There was a game - monday night I think - many years ago where the HC said they would run the ball down and the 1st play was a bomb to W, Walker for a TD. Be nice to see that...

    Sign Frank Gore as a free agent this week.

    And then just plow him right into the line on the first play. Give Zach a nice 2nd and 9.5 to work with.

    LeFleur can do that with the OLine they have now..
