BroadwayJoe12 Posted September 30, 2010 Share Posted September 30, 2010 Ehh I don't buy it. Probably just a PR ploy by tanny due to the nasty backlash from losing both stud RBs in Woodhead and C.Washington. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slats Posted September 30, 2010 Share Posted September 30, 2010 Kid showed genuine promise in the preseason, as well as a lot of immaturity and inconsistency. If the Jets can put together the type of performance a lot of fans expect from them this week against a lesser Bills team, it's probably as good a week as any to break him in.

NIGHT STALKER Posted September 30, 2010 Share Posted September 30, 2010 I'll believe it when I see it. Practice and Sunday's is a lot different. What a coincidence though that he looks good after Leon broke off two kickoffs for TD's this past weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BroadwayJoe12 Posted September 30, 2010 Share Posted September 30, 2010 What angry backlash? From us idiots on messageboards? Pretty much hah. I just figured it would be impossible for him to show promise and improvement in his rookie year, considering his talentless a$$ cost us woodhead and c.washington...so clearly my next logical train of thought went directly to PR coverup.

SenorGato Posted September 30, 2010 Share Posted September 30, 2010 I'm not worried about McKnight's future at all if he stays healthy and our OL remains strong. I think he'll be a pretty big deal in a couple years... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BroadwayJoe12 Posted September 30, 2010 Share Posted September 30, 2010 I never saw lack of talent as being his problem. Haha I'm just bustin balls. It's just the nature of the beast with passionate fans I guess. I've found it funny that someone with so much obvious talent was being crucified for maintaining a roster spot and indirectly costing us a couple kids off the practice squad. The kid passes the eye test, it's just a matter of him staying focus and dedicated. He does that and he'll be a contributor. If he doesn't, he'll fizzle out...and I'll be the first to admit he was a waste of talent if it happens. But for the best interest of our team, we should all hope he does pan out.

I hear that, I think it's really all up to him at this point, if he wants it bad enough and gets discipline and dedicated, he may go a long way.

T0mShane Posted September 30, 2010 Share Posted September 30, 2010 What angry backlash? From us idiots on messageboards? The Jets F.O. has the worst case of rabbit ears in the league which is why they panic at every potential PR hiccup, from David Clowney's "rogue hacker" on his twitter account to the PSL disaster to the Revis holdout to the Edwards issue. The Giants have similar issues that barely become a blurb in the paper because they employ Pat Hanlon, who is a PR genius. The Jets do not employ such geniuses. So, yes, the Jetscoughtannenbaum would go out of theircoughhis way to get something like this in the public forum in response to the Washington/Jones/Woodhead bashing.

slats Posted October 1, 2010 Share Posted October 1, 2010 The more I think about this the more I think that... 1.) The Jets are completely focused on running the football against Buffalo, and... 2.) Shaking up the active roster by bringing McKnight in this week helps maintain the whole team's attention in a trap week. I hope he sees the field.

BroadwayJ667 Posted October 1, 2010 Share Posted October 1, 2010 if this is true then I guess the Jets are planning to run the ball most of the day. Use three backs if you don't think you will need to pass the ball most of the game. My guess of the gameplan. Take an early lead and squat on it.
