124 Posted October 14, 2008 Author Share Posted October 14, 2008 Can we all just sit back and look at this lineup: QB: Brett Favre WR1: Laveranues Coles WR2: Jerricho Cotchery TE: Dustin Keller WR3: Chansi Stuckey Solid OLine FB: Tony Richardson and RB: Larry Johnson Hello Brett Favre either facing only 3 or 4 DB's or hello Larry Johnson with wide open lanes up the middle.

Lil Bit Special Posted October 14, 2008 Share Posted October 14, 2008 How many 20+ yard carries do we have from Jones, Washington or Chatman this year? Thanks. Jets line is A LOT better than KC's and we have a passing game with a certain individual behind center who backs up opposing Linebackers and Secondaries. His name is Brett Favre, IDK, maybe you've heard of him? its not a question of who has more long rushes, but who has been productive. Johnson's stats are skewed by a few long rushes. Otherwise he is very average. To trade away draft picks for a guy we might get a big rush out of every other game isnt worth it. Releasing Thomas Jones and trading picks away for someone who MAY be slightly better is not a good idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But please everyone whose against LJ, please continue to ignore the fact that HERMAN EDWARDS IS HIS HEAD COACH, thus the entire other team knows whats coming and when its coming: Run Run Run or Screen or 5 yard pass Punt And realize KC has no passing game with either Croyle, Huard or Thigpen and the defenses always playing 8 or 9 in the box against Larry. Stop just looking at his long runs and saying he's nothing or not an immense improvment over Thomas Jones because you'd be dead wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, scatback Leon Washington can do it all. I am so sick and f'ing tired of our fans making Leon out to be something that he is clearly not. He's a nice fancy player whose a great returner but an everydown back or a true Running Back he is NOT. Larry Johnson will also bruise and wear a defense down for the all important 4th quarter where teams run down the other teams throats. Larry Johnson is 10x the back Leon or Jones ever were or ever will become. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Irish Jet Posted October 14, 2008 Share Posted October 14, 2008 I'm not a huge fan of LJ, but he'd be a HUGE upgrade at RB over Thomas Jones. When you consider that we're all built around winning now, why not? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I havent seen any KC games this year so I cannot comment on defenses being played or play calling. But I look at his most successful game of the year and see a lot of 3 and 4 yd rushes. That doesnt make him a top back. http://sports.yahoo.com/nfl/boxscore?gid=20080928012&page=plays Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Larry Johnson is 10x the back Leon or Jones ever were or ever will become. Never said Leon was anything more than what he's produced. But if there were holes to run through, even backup Leon would find them. Larry Johnson will do no more for us than what we already get. The o-line needs to do a better job. The old Larry Johnson was a stud. Now he's average and you want to get rid of our RB, trade 2 picks for him, have him learn our offense... Just not worth it.

Cuff_Up Posted October 14, 2008 Share Posted October 14, 2008 LJ would help this team in a big way. We are in a win now mode. 2nd rounder for him would be worth it. Imho he would be a friggin beast with our o line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Irish Jet Posted October 14, 2008 Share Posted October 14, 2008 Nah, to me we've been spoiled by the Favre drama. This kind of blockbuster trade is rare in the NFL especially during the season. Deadline day rarely has these kind of big name trades anymore. No way it happens, there's simply not enough time at this point, I wish it did but it wont unfortunately.

Lil Bit Special Posted October 14, 2008 Share Posted October 14, 2008 I just called tangini and they told me they're working on it. I just texted him and he told me to f#ck off and leave him alone. I think the hold up is KC wants to trade Johnson and H. Edwards for a 6th rounder and the jets wont budge past a 7th rounder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
