    Putting the word facts in quotes does not change the facts.

    I think Jones is the more productive player than Stuckey. It might be interesting to see a double tight end set with Keller split wide with TWO rb's, too. But yeah, until the Jets get more production from #3 wr on down, I'd like to see how they do with two TE's at the same time, whether single back or two.

    Right now it looks to me like they're giving Sanchez limited progressions, going with high-percentage plays designed to give him better chemistry with his 2 starters, Keller and dump-offs to Leon and TJ.

    We have only had one hand-off to TRich and from appearances the 3rd and 4th receivers are only on the field to sometimes draw a safety deep to kill the double coverage on Cotch or Stuckey, or to draw a LB or safety to outside coverage to open the middle up for Keller.

    I bet once they start opening the playbook wider for Sancho, Clowney ends up getting a deep pass or 2 thrown his way. With the trouble Tennessee has been having putting pressure on QB's so far, I would bet that happens this week. And that could be a good thing or a bad thing.

    In effect you are saying the Jets have not thrown to their other wideouts not because they suck but because Sanchez is still learning the plays. Heh. Interesting.

    I had no idea you were such an optimist. But you may be right.

    If we lose this weekend for stupid reasons, that optimistic side can always get kicked back down. I'm not used to going total optimist with this team, but I had a best case scenario laid out in my head before this season started and they have played it almost perfectly. I'm an easy mark when it comes to the Jets.

    Holy Crap I can't believe people are still arguing this shit.

    Our running game is just grand. Mark i set to have a huge game this weekend and we will have a buck fitty in rushing yards.

    It's either our running game is bad or what should we name our fucking defense.

    The reason they may not being opening the playbook for Sanchez is they haven't had to. One of the great things about the NFL is every week teams see film and adjust. Why show anything if you don't have to?
