    Tom Brady is going to be strip-sacked every game all season. Cuz it happened in Game one of the preseason. Right? I never realized you sucked this badly at this trolling thing.

    First team reps consisted largely of runs directly up the middle. They were testing their offensive line's cohesion. But you don't get that, because you don't know shit about football. Go eat some paste.

    So you're a Patriots fan who posts on two different Jets message boards?

    Powell and mcknight both looked pretty good last night. There is definitely hope for ground and pound, we just need to get that oline clicking.

    CBS' Len Pasquarelli thinks the Jets are concerned about the depth at RB behind Shonn Greene. He notes that Bilal Powell and Joe McKnight both struggle in pass protection. That may very well be the case, but I liked what I saw out of Powell last night in pass protection. On Mark Sanchez’s first series, Bilal Powell did a nice job picking up a blitz. He stoned Thomas Howard cold right in the hole, but Ray Maualuga came in right behind Howard and picked up the sack. Well designed blitz. The TV commentator put the fault for that play on Powell, but he can't block them both. Then later, Powell was one-on-one on DE Jamaal Anderson. Jamaal Anderson goes 6'6, 280. Powell goes 5'10, 204. That’s a matchup that should favor the Bengals every time, but Powell did a nice job on Anderson, allowing Sanchez to step up and run for a first down. I also thought McKnight did some nice things as well, showing nice elusiveness and pass catching skills.
