We don't need 6 WR's when we are lining up double tight end, rb, fb and ONE WR!! Are you kidding with that formation in the 1st half? What is the point of having 6 WR's when you only have one on the field for so many plays. That was ridiculous! When the Jets had the ball they had a nice spread formation with many options. Our 1st 3 drives we have 1 maybe 2 guys in a pattern - what was that? The Jets had 9 guys up front and why not. We had 1 guy lined up wide - 1 guy!

Funny how we moved the ball in the 2nd half when they spread it out a little. Is this last year all over on offense? Too conservative and worried about protection instead of being aggressive and making the defense react.

One last observation - was it just me or did RB look awfully quick. How is he not starting and playing 3rd downs? Are you telling me Cobbs is a better 3rd down back? Why not get the ball into our best player's hands and that is Ginn and RB?

Well hard to run with six receivers when u actually only have one nfl level one on your roster lol.
 
stop bashin on ginn he draws double teams and press coverage cus hes the only good receiver on the team. thats why our tight ends had so many catches they were shutting down the outside of the field

not sure why they would double cover him. I do think he and Chambers would of been a nice combo.

It's not necessarily Ginn bashing, he is just much too raw to be in the position that he is in with this football team. Until we get someone opposite him, we simply won't get any production out of him because he doesn't have the technical skills to dominate as a number one right now.

You what what would have been a nice combo, with a real Qb, Chambers and Welker.
 
Rookie head coach playing with a team of new players. He needs to get a few for what players can and cannot do in game situations.
 
Why double Ginn when the 'book' says QB can't throw outside the hash marks.
 
Speed receivers are a big threat on crossing routes as well - assuming he actually runs his cut inside of the db!! Chad doesn't have to throw 50 yards justtotake advantage of his speed.

Also, why the heck is he not our punt returner? Guy is a threat to go to the house every time - assuming he actually catches the punt and doesn't let it bounce!!
