Dude, you're talking about a team with a 9-3 record. Okay, we lost badly, we sucked for the entire game vs the hated Patriots. But c'mon, this is a really good team with so much talent.
Didn't we drop Woodhead to resign david "tweet tweet" clowned? Smh Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
The thing that concerns me most about last night isn't Danny Woodhead, or the offense -- Schottenheimer included. It's the defense. If you get carved up for 45 points, that's not good. The reality we're left with after last night is that the road to the super bowl goes through Foxboro. The Jets are most likely going to have to beat the Pats in Foxboro to get to the Super Bowl now, and that's the goal for the whole season isn't it? Going to the Super Bowl. After last night it just doesn't seem like there's any way to beat them. And we keep losing players. The season isn't over, but getting to the big game just seems like a long shot now, based on what happened.
Had Woody gone to the police, none of this would ever had happened.... Thread Fail. OP Fail. Schotty needs to change his offense to fit the people on the team. Where are the quick slants to Holmes and Cotch. I just think last night was a fluke. A top rated D giving up 45 points. An 11th rank offense putting up 3 against a bottom feeder? Something wasn't right for the whole team. Tainted water, filmed practice - SOMETHING!
Tannenbaum is the best GM in football, to suggest otherwise because of a 3rd-string RB move is ludicrous. It was the right call then and the right call now, McKnight is 10x more talented than Woodhead and I would much rather have him on the roster.
I know it was in garbage time, but McKnight really showed a nice burst last night. He has speed that the other two guys don't have. I'd like to see him used every now and then.
Yeah, McKnight looked really quick out there. Now I'd like to see what he can do catching the ball. If he can make plays split out wide/in the slot it'll add a new dimension to our offense.
I turned the game off, missed it. I guess I'll have to go to the DVR once before I delete that debacle.
I'm not really here to agree or disagree with the personnel choice, but it seems to me like you guys already have players in LT (maybe Smith/McKnight?) who can make those same types of plays that the pats run. The Jets simply don't choose to use those plays in their gameplan as much as the pats do. Whether that is cause to blame Schottenheimer or Tannenbaum or Ryan or Sanchez or whomever, I don't know. I just don't think that the argument should be Woodhead/no Woodhead.
I've been saying this for MONTHS. Years, if you count the fact that they Couldn't get Leon Washington on the field prior to that.
Will you stop. We had the magical woodhead and foolishly let him out of our grasp. Now he's led the Pats to a 10-2 record and the inside track to the division while smashing the Jets in the process.
Because, like Leon Washington our coaching staff, cannot design plays for good football players. Look back that the pre season..."Woodhead...get in ther and run it, I know that you won't f*ng fumble it" Much like the Mevi$ cock gobbling crowd, no one wants to admit that Schotty is just as inflexible as his father. And less imaginative. That's why the perfect solution is to get JMcD in as Offensive QC to tweak what we have, and maybe...just F*ng maybe give opponents things they've not seen yet and win something, then Schitty will get hired elsewhere and we could get somewhere...
McDaniels will never come to the NYJ. He's still Belicheat's boy, he'll go back to NE or if not he would stay away from the NYJ out of respect for BB.
Said it all along... cutting Woodhead was easilly the worst mistake this regime has made. The stupid arguements that he wasn't good enough to play here have been dismantled on the fields of the NFL all year long now. He was good enough to play, the Jets CS was just too stupid to reaslize it.
Premise: I'm a Woodhead fan, but I disagree with you on quite a few things. 1) If you invest a high-mid draft pick on a player you HAVE to give him a chance... in fact McKnight has shown potential in the limited opportunities he's got. It would have been stupid to cut McKnight. 2) Never EVER in the NFL should a GM push a coach to play a player because of intangibles. Intangibles are good, great but are second to talent. Now I agree Tanny, Rex and Schotty misjudjed Woodhead's talent but that's a whole other argument... 3) Tanny doesn't pick names, that's absurd! IF those "names" are recognized by NFL fans all it means is that he's good in bringing in those players who are considered (for a reason) the best in the NFL at what they do. Plus it's not like he's scouting the league... we have a department who's very good at doing that. 4) WRs drop some balls and commit some penalties? Wow, amazing! I bet no "no name" WR would do that! HOlmes is a very good leader, also what kind of boneheadness are you talking about? Haven't seen any on the field! Sure Holmes and Edwards are "names", but it's for a reason... 'cause they're GOOD players! 5) Jason Taylor plays OLB, Gholston DE. And also I think it should be up to the coaches to say who can contribute more and I trust Rex more than you... what is this... a farm team?! Oh and also, JT will still be better than the ghost when he is 50. It's absurd you compare the two in terms of rushers. That said, getting back to Woodhead Iagree with you on one thing: Schotty is a moron who runs a braniac O without the correct personnel (a braniac QB) and he should have found a way to use Woodhead's talent in our O. But then again this isn't the first clue as to why Schotty is a moron... I guess I'm just happy for Woodhead he's found a place (bad place) to succeed.
