    I say play Forte and Powell at the same time in the back field, especially on passing downs they are a LB's nightmare in coverage

    Got Decker in my fantasy league, looks like im going to be sitting him regardless if he plays or not. Even if he plays he wont be 100% so production will be down like last week.

    Personally, I think he's out this week.

    Time for the Kiddie Corps to step up. Anderson and Peake should see plenty of action IF Gailey is as smart as we all hope he is..

    I just got an alert that he has a partially torn rotator cuff, they aren't sure about surgery yet.

    Partially torn, depending on pain tolerance and the mobility he could come back in a few weeks. Hopefully ASJ is active and steps it up in the RZ

    Yup - on the bright side it looks like they've done a good job of acquiring and developing talent at the WR position in two short years. It will be interesting to see how it plays out.

    I wouldn't expect much from ASJ right away. This team can absorb a Decker injury but its tough as he's a hell of a player and Marshall is hobbled on the other side.

    Its a great time for Fitzpatrick to earn his $12 mill right now... at home, trying to avoid going 1-3 against a good team with injuries to your WR corps?.. gosh I wish we had a $12 mill QB. Oh wait, we do. Bounce back and step it up Fitz

    We need the young guys to step up for sure. Hopefully Quincy is up to the challenge specifically. I don't expect much from ASJ right away definitely, but in the RZ if the Gailey can just get him a play in there maybe he can come down with the football.

    Fitz needs to earn his keep here and now. His decision making has been very questionable and that worries me going into this game. Sherman, Earl Thomas, and the new guy DeShawn Shead. Jets have to find a way to exploit the middle of the field in my opinion.

    They need to sit him for the next 4 games at least. If he hits the ground or gets tackled/jammed the wrong way, that can easily result in a full tear that would require season ending surgery. Don't fuck with this one.

    i like that suggestion a lot.

    play some 20 or 21 personnel (2 RB's 0 TE, or 2 RB 1 TE).
    The TE can even be Enunwa as an H-back, with Marshall and Anderson out wide.

    On regular 3WR sets, i expect Enunwa to play Decker's slot role, again with Anderson out wide.
    on 4WR sets, maybe Ross plays J Marshall's spot.

    "I go against (Darrelle) Revis every day (in practice)," Anderson said. "So I’m not really too worried. I have a lot of respect for [Sherman], but I’m not worried about who’s in front of me, I’m out there to do my job."

    I hope someone told that Revis sucks now.
