    Love what Con does for us. That's a guy you want to learn from, which is what I try to do. I recommend getting Club Level for those in the mains if you can. There are some great stuff up there of Cons, CK, rafael, Boomer, Da' Fins and many more.

    I didn't know he played ball at OK and PSU.

    Well away from here
    Yeah back when I had two knees and was a decade + younger. :lol:

    The thing for me now is to see if I am close with some of these matchups. I really think the flats will be exploited by the Jets using Leon Washington, especially if Matt Roth ends up covering him man to man. It is just the nature of the scheme we'll run, happened in Dallas, and will in all liklihood happen here.

    The right side of the Jets O-line could, and should be exploited by our defense. The left side is pretty good, although D'Brick will still have issues with powerful stack and shed DE's.

    As mentioned, this is the first of these and I aim to get better in terms of the layout and presentation. Let me know what you think, and where I am wrong or uninformed in your view. Good debate is what this is all about.

    Thanks to the staff at ThePhins.com for working hard on this. :up:

    Thanks for a great breakdown. It's very readable. That's key, too. I have a question, though. I haven't read or heard of anyone touching on this, either. So maybe it's really a non issue...
    But, regarding Jenkins - in spite of his impressive size as well as reputation, he's used to relying on support from the other 4-3 DT. With no such support in a 3-4 is this something to factor in?

    I would factor it in in terms of his conditioning, and mental toughness as the game wears on. His weight has been a secret since he came to the Jets, so that should tell you something right there. His backup isn't going to overwhelm anybody so it will be key to keep him on the field and wear him down. If he crumbles, so does the interior defense.

    Thanks. glad I got some confirmation. It just seemed like a fact that could make a difference.
    Oh and as for Woodie, I've had thoughts along the same lines. He's a big slug and I think the right side is going to be vulnerable.
