Play calling, clock management, both sucked!


THE ILK

Recommended Posts

I'm seriously concerned about the lack of situational awareness in the play calling, particularly in the red zone. There have been a number of occasions this year where instead of putting in Tebow or having Greene pound the ball in for the touchdown, they've run slant routes or let Sanchez just make it up. It's cost them two games - against the Patriots and Texans - where instead of touchdowns the Jets settled for field goals.

What is Tebow for, if not for 3rd & 1 on the goal line? The only thing Greene has been consistently good at this season is rushing for short yards on 3rd & short. What are they DOING there?

The reason they brought Tebow here is so they could have a secret.

When Tebow had succcess with the Broncos he was running options wide, either tossing it or running over LBs and DBs moving laterally. Running him straight at 400 lb. Wilfork is a complete waste of time. Shades of herman Edwards; does the Jets offense bother to gameplan for their opponent or are they just running their plays?

Either way, Tebow should still be in there. He's made for that situation.

Very tough to stop Tebow for no gain. IMO he gets first down and u run him 4x

Tebow runs the QB sneak-----from the shotgun

It looks like they have only one play for Tebow. At least try a QB draw if they are hell bent on him running it up the gut. Or better yet, have him run it on a passing play or two -- at the very worst it will open the field up so he can do his thing. The option plays that Denver ran were pretty slick, it would seem to be a cinch to install that here.
