This is Jenkins first year at nose. If the Jets defense continues to play well everybody will know him just like they know Wilfork today.
To compare stats of a 3-4 nose tackle to a 4-3 DT is amongst the most silly fucking things I have ever seen. They are 2 completely different animals. Jenkins is having a monstrous year as a NT. They both are the keys to their respective defenses. Haynesworth is the anchor to a better D and a better team, so I am going to give him the nod. But I really don't think either of them is appreciably better than the other.
Media keeps talking about Haynesworth, so he'll probably win it. He and Jenkins are actually pretty similar in their play, he's just a little younger.
