Depends on what kinda fan youre talking about. For starters you gotta completely discredit any Tebowites opinion, since theyre gonna bitch about anything where Timmy isnt the star. Then you got the other tards who want to pretend that Sanchez is Peyton Manning or something, and want to see us throwing the ball 45 times a game. Personally If Sparano runs a simple offense where we have 40 + rushing attempts a game and 5-6 deep balls mixed with a bunch of playaction passes. I will be incredibly happy. But to be fair im also the kind of guy who finds the idea of a game with a final score of 6-3 exciting. I think games where its like 57-49 are just retarded and quite frankly pathetic
The only way you can consistently run the ball 40 times a game is if the running game is having success. Last year's running game wasn't all that successful, and they've done nothing to improve the talent at OL and RB, and haven't even signed a blocking TE. If they continue to struggle, it won't be Sporano's fault. But then, out of necessity, he'll have to change the kind of offense you and he would like to run. Not only would he have to pass more, but he wouldn't be able to rely on the play-action game as much, and he'll have to get more creative to set up good long ball opportunities. Would you criticize him under those circumstances? I presume most people here would.
with sporano comes leader in field goals, less td's less passing and more whining from the fans. this is the jets where it's always the OC's fault the team sucks! hacket, schotty and now sporano. expecting the same ole same ole and soj!
Grrene averaged 4.2 ypc last year, that ain't bad at all. I think the biggest problem last year was abandoning the rush game early, and constantly getting sacked or turning it over forcing us to pass. I would imagine with a simplified blocking scheme the OL can only improve, or at the worst the run game should simply improve just from running it more and wearing defenses down, raather than the stupid passing plays that leaad to turnovers and 3 and outs. I will admit tho that if Greene gets hurt, our ground game is COMPLETLEY fucked, and I would expect only very bad things, barring a miracle from Ganaway of course
3.8 YPC as a team wasn't good enough last year, and that's what lead to abandoning the run. This time last year everyone here was touting Bill Callahan as the best O-line coach in the league, now his schemes were the problem? The O line was mediocre last year and has all five starters returning, I don't see any reason for improvement.
It was two fold. Schottys offense required the OL to make too many reads over complicating it. And Calahan ran a zone offensive line which makes it more compliated for guys like hunter and ducasse. Plus Greene should expect more carries and his #s have been good, so id expect it to go up. And the wildcat definitely should boost it more, that I guarentee. Id bet Tebow avgs over 5 YPC even if he can't throw A man scheme means less thinking. Plus DBrick had an uncharacteristically bad year. Even if the right end stays the same I guarentee he plays better
Schottenheimer's offense wasn't too complicated for the O line in 09 and 10, what was the difference in 2011? If the coaching staff thought the line would benefit from more man-blocking schemes, they would have made the switch last year. I'm telling you, the line was mediocre because the talent was mediocre, no scheme in the world is gonna change that.
