    MLF NEVER puts the right people out there for the situation. And yes, the way he likes to....teach any deviants a lesson, has only hurt the team
    Jeffy is the same...clueless

    I'd agree except we don't know that it's LaFleur's doing.

    True but it never seems to happen on D, both the chirping and the pettiness.

    I have no idea how Saleh runs the show but he seems more of a let the offensive guys run their show and I’ll focus on D like Rex was.

    Saleh's in a bad position now--MLF is his best friends brother from what I know. And MLF has some talent--his designs are edgy but his playcalling is below average. I think we roll with him next year but we need someone to fill in where he's weak which apparently includes personnel relationships too.

    I think we have a fine stable of running backs provided Hall makes a complete recovery, which he should. Jets running game suffered from an inconsistent passing attack. Most defenses playing the Jets will overplay the run in an effort to force the Jets into 3rd and longs. Until we get someone at QB who can throw with consistency, that will continue. Michael Carter reminds me of Leon Washington. He can't move a pile, but if he finds a crease, he can break for long gains. Zonavan Knight has shown he is a good north/south one cut runner with power. Hall reminds me of Curtis Martin. He's not flashy but somehow gains good yardage consistently. Ty Johnson is a good reserve. I would go into a season with this group anytime, any day. We don't need to waste any draft picks on RBs IMO. Help at OL is another story.
