    I'm scared to see Sutton play vanilla shit instead of applying pressure.

    Lendale White fucking sucks. It's Johnson that you have to worry about.

    white is good. He runs over people and has had big runs. He isn't to be taken lightly

    He's a glorified goal-line back putting up Eddie George type YPC numbers in his first two seasons instead of his last two. He'll be out of the league in three years.

    he got himself into shape and is having a career year. I'd say at least an 8 year career barring injury.

    Running teams with good O-Lines will always employ his services.

    You're nuts. I'll be sure to top this when he's cut in 2010.

    I'm more worried about f'n Bo Scaife and Crumpler than their RBs. We've shut down every RB we've seen so far but have made some scrub TEs look all-pro due to poor coverage.

    but someone will pick him up. He was drafted in 06. He'll be done in 2012-14 if anything. But he has to be healthy.

    Don't you think the fact that he's a giant fucking slob might increase his chances of being unhealthy? The ability to stay on the field factors into talent, and I won't be surprised to see "DOUBTFUL - CORONARY" scrolling across a ticker next to his name sometime soon.

    when he was drafted he was out of shape. I've heard he's gotten it together. He looks doughy but he isn't what he used to be. Fisher won't allow that.

    He's not a fat slob...and considering he's the perfect power back in a two back system he can hold a job for a long time in this league...doesn't help that he's only 23 right now.

    White is a great power back. I'm not sure where the confusion is in that keeper1125. I think you read some pre draft reports and just assume that's the way it is. However, I think he's having a more sucessful pro career than Reggie Bush has so far.

    Me, too. I think Bo could have a huge day against us. Collins has been airing it out more lately and having success.

    Rumor here in California is that Tennessee will bring in Young on a few wild cat plays to get some more flexibility and open up the run down the middle. if you think about it that would be powerful. Jets need to play the run and strong blitzes to shake them up, get to the QB and throw him off his rythmn. Also, both CB are a little banged-up so we need to exploit them and see. That will open up our offense.

    it will be the key to winning for sure. perhaps harris injury was something ongoing and thhe reason he does not seeem quite as explosive as last year, if he is back are d takes a step up big time

    I too think he was hurt all year, and really hurt the groin after that tackle.

    Him at 100% is an awesome sight. I'd like him at 100% at playoff time, when it really counts.

    The Jets need to score to win. The Titans let up less than 14 points a game. They can't be conservative or they will get rocked.

    I don't. It wasn't the tackle that hurt him, I re-watched that game last week - after the tackle Pace stepped in his crotch trying to avoid tripping on him and the runner he tackled and that's when he started rolling around in pain. Probably a torn muscle or ligament caught by a cleat.

    Bowens has been no worse than Harris in coverage, and just as good against the rush as Harris has been this year. In other words, Harris has been a huge dissapointment; i was expecting pro-bowl calibre play.
