    if jenks is out we likely go to more of a 4-3 or 4-4.....

    IDK, he was supporting his weight coming off the field, albeit slowly....

    thats points to cartilage and not ligament.

    he walked off the field and walked into the dressing room. Thats not what you typically see with a severe knee injury.

    Either way, I doubt he's 100% anytime soon.

    I'd call it more of a waddle than a walk.

    Actually, if you tear your ACL you can walk on it. Brady did the same thing last year.

    Shefter just said on his twitter that Jenkins will have an MRI tomorrow for a possible serious knee injury.

    No. I learned a long time ago that sometimes doing nothing is the best thing. Kinda like trying to pass someone in traffic. Inevitably the lane you switch to will come to a stop.

    Making a move would just magnify the bad situation we're in right now of not having much depth. Terrible idea.

    Well, might as well count him out for a while, if not the year. Hopefully we can hold the fort up front without him.

    kiss the season goodbye...

    Draft the fat ass from Alabama, Cody so we have a nice backup to Jenkins.

    I'm not writing off the defense because of this. We may not be as good, but not terrible on defense. The offense, however.........

    Jenkins is the only one who can generate a pass-rush ans occupy 2 blockers.

    You lose him we have the Grand Poobah starting with who as the backup? This DLine will be GASSED.

    Kiss the season goodbye until we draft some defensive depth.

    Not to mention Jenkins MAY be the most valuable Jet on the team.

    If Jenkins is indeed out for the season, I think it becomes a two-horse race in the AFC East between Miami and NE. This is a huge blow to NY no doubt. I am almost somewhat, but not really, sorry for you guys. Lol.

    Miami should have no problems pounding the rock 2 weeks from today. I'll be at the game, my first Phins game!!!!

    that was a terrible moment watching him on the ground. it will be huge to see what happens tomorrow with the mri.

    i am scared because really any knee injury to a 300 something pound guy like him is a really big problem.

    guys the defense gave up a HUGE play and tackled less than well, they lost a game to a guy who i have never heard of and has probably not seen the field before... and this is a team that lost to the browns last week. i understand they were in alot of bad situations with the turnovers but i would expect them to be creating turnovers against that shame of an offense. i actually said during the game thank god this kid is terrible or we would be in serious trouble. and he sure was terrible. just not quite terrible enough to lose.

    To only give up 13 points when we had 6 picks is very good. Sure I would like to see more turnovers by the defense, but other then the wildcat has any team consistently done anything against our defense?
