Jets RB situation Greene / Powell (1 Viewer)

[Hipple Long Ware & Peete]

Offensive snap counts through week 4Week 1: Greene 44, Powell 19Week 2: Greene 24, Powell 32Week 3: Greene 50, Powell 36Week 4: Greene 18, Powell 32Looks like Powell is slowly taking over, even though Greene is still getting his carries. Could just be the Jets have been behind/in perma-passing mode.

Yeah, but doesn't it seem they might be in permapassing mode a lot. They stink.

RUSHING OFFENSE: F

» A net total of 45 rushing yards. They averaged 2.6 yards per run. Insert joke involving the words “ground” and “pound” here.

» Are we close to seeing a change at running back? Bilal Powell started the game, despite Shonn Greene getting the majority of the touches. Greene’s last three games: 11, 19 (in OT) and 11 attempts. The problem isn’t getting Greene out of the game, but who will replace him? Powell had just four touches and Joe McKnight seems to be phased out on offense. Are they expecting the newly signed Jonathan Grimes to step in?

Will he play against his old team or just be a scout?

At least the CB is doing a good job running the ball.

Where the hell did Shonn Greene come from today?

31 fir 159 and 2 TDs.

Powell 4 for 14 and 1 catch for 1 yard before leaving with a shoulder injury. He's very droppable now.

ETA- Now 161 and 3 TDS for Greene!

Good thing I found Vick Ballard to sub in for this Shonne Green bum.

And dropped Jonathan Grimes the game McKnight and Powell go down.

Of course, now that I dropped his 2.suck ypc average for an upside play in Alex Green. I hate this season.

GB bye weeks forcing you to throw in scrubs you wouldn't normally consider playing.

Oh, and I'm starting Alex Green tonight because this just seems like a day where you want to make sure any Green(e) is in the starting lineup.

Greene looked good, but I've never seen a D-line look as bad as the Colts did today. The Jets backs were getting five yards before they were touched. Unfortunately, I don't see this as being too repeatable.
