FLORHAM PARK, N.J. -- The New York Jets, already struggling on offense, will likely lose right tackle Damien Woody for the remainder of the regular season, league sources told ESPNNewYork.com Monday.

Woody will have arthroscopic knee surgery this week, a blow to an offensive line known for its durability. It's possible that he could return for the playoffs, depending on his rehabilitation.

Woody, the senior member of the line, re-injured his right knee in the first quarter on Sunday's 10-6 loss to the Miami Dolphins. He didn't return to the game, saying afterward that his knee "locked up." He underwent an MRI exam Monday morning, revealing the damage. The exact nature of the injury wasn't immediately available

Who knows if it would have mattered but why the **** was he playing in the Bengals game?

Good question.

This is a big blow, the line is just not the same without Woody.

Everything takes a hit, the running game, and the pass protection, this sucks!

Wheres all the Faneca haters now. Sure could use some veteren leadership about now. Get well soon Woody.

lol huh?

He was a LG and his leadership would mean squat in terms of getting a young RT to play well... Mangold is here for that and is a better leader and player than Faneca...

He would lead and get the entire line to play well. We did have a decent running game when he was here.

Lets think of a solution. Could Slauson play some RT and have Ducasse play LG? Slauson started at RT in college his senior year. What about Robert Turner, he is obviously our best backup OL, can he play some RT? or is he just a G/C type? Sorry but after seeing Hunter beaten 5 times by no one yesterday i'm worried when thinking of the steelers and bears D. Thoughts?? :(

the way Wayne Hunter played yesterday... this a huge loss... I have no idea how the offensive line is going to stop the Steelers' and Bears' pass rush. Sanchez will have one second to throw the ball =.=

he has sucked both times he has replaced Woody. Franted, Mario Williams the first time, but....

Robert can play any Offensive Line Position. That is what makes him so great, his versatility. Whether it is Center, Guard or Tackle, he can get the job done. If Rex wasn't so thick headed, he would have been utilizing him more over the last 3 years.

Yeah you are deffinetly right, Hunter is gonna get killed against pittsburgs D-line. we either gotta get Ducasse in or get Turner in there. This is one of the huge reasons Sanchez can't even get a play off and now he's starting to scramble way to much.
