I hope he comes alive this game because our TEs have done NOTHING so far this season. They've blocked well but other than that when have you heard Fasano's name for anything exciting.
This is the area you guys need to exploit, the one real weakness we have on D is covering the TEs and backs out of the backfield. if you are to move the ball on us Fasano needs to be big and ronnie and co. out of the backfield.

If that's the case we need to utilize our RB and TE screen game like no one's business. We haven't thrown enough passes Ronnie's way... PERIOD.

He will have to step up, and hopefully get a Touchdown. Ricky and Ronnie should be able to do the rest. I wonder how the QBs will hold up. Henne will be blitzed a lot. Sanchez will have Porter, Wake and JT after him constantly. After missing a game I expect Porter to have a big showing, if he is healed enough.

Yeah, the blocking has been great. I credit Henning for putting Fasano in motion, and then turning up to block. It has caused a lot of confusion on D.

Henne throwing to the RBs is a concern as he will be getting looks he has never seen in game time speed. Hitting the TEs is a different story.

Who is this Fasano character you speak of? I vaguely remember the name from a season ago but he has dissapeared since then.

LOL but you're gonna have to get some new questions.
Fasano has been a BIG part in our running success. I believe that if he makes one kinda big catch, he will have a VG year. MNF would be a good place to start.

Time for Fasano to start showing up in the passing game. Being in a contract year, being a good run blocker wont get him a new contract.

With this team, it just may. I do agree, he has to catch some passes. Did Martin help that much?

I beg to differ. For a team that relies on the run as much as this one does, you need all the good run blocker's you can muster.
Yer a darn tootin it would!!!!!!!!!!! It would be about time and I am starting him on my fantasy team.:hump:

I'm glad he's a good run blocker but your #1 TE shouldn't ONLY be a good run blocker. I'd be satisfied if he was just decent but the guy has done less than nothing in the recieving department.
I'm going to say that this is a critical, or at least very important, week for Fasano and Ginn. The Jets are so-so against the run this year and very aggressive- makes sense to me that Ryan will have 8 in the box quite a bit to stop Ronnie and Ricky, make the young QB beat them. So Ginn has to take advantage and Fasano has to stretch the middle of the field to outduel that defensive approach. This is the right game, the right opponent, the right time for them to step up and show what they've got.
