LaDainian's been great, but
it doesn’t change the fact that it was a crappy trade/salary dump only getting a 5th rounder for Leon. Also, let’s see how LT holds up in the second half of the year and into the playoffs. Will his body be able to take the pounding for 16 games? Will he still be able to get outside and turn the corner? Especially since he’s already getting more carries than anticipated.
How is LT getting more touches than anticipated?
Rex sai he would get 10-15 carries and 4 passes. On this site most wanted him to have 12-15 touches a game when we got him. Through 3 games he has 37 carries or 12.03 per games and 9 rec or 3 a game. That puts him at 15 touches per game, pretty much what Rex said and what most fans that took part in theLT debate thought was acceptable. A good point was made on another site,Leon is not getting carries or touches on O, he has been great on ST but would you pay 5 mil for a STer?

Also, not sure what Rex is watching
in order to classify Slauson as “good.” He’s been abysmal in all facets.
Slauson isn’t terrible. He’s good as opposed to a Jacob Bender or Will Montgomery type.
and the home of the... JETS!!!

Straighten up and fly right.
I think he is doing fine
So do you think he is okay? Or only compared to backups?
"Sorry bro, he Jason Bourned me"- Drama
I think he’s good. Being the new guy on the line, he’s bound to be targeted more, but I think he’s handling it well.

Yeah I agree 100% it seems like some expect HOF play from his first game.
I couldn’t tell if you were being sarcastic in the post above.
In an Ideal world, I would have all ten fingers on my left hand so my right hand could just be a fist for punching.
what's the deal with Billick
He’s real bitter that nobody is offering him no head coaching position. This the second time he has criticized Rex. Maybe he felt the Jet job should have been offered to him
I dislike Mike T and have been critical of his moves, but lets be real about Washington. There was a good chance he would never return to form. He’s also playing in a much weaker division. I just don’t see it as a bad move on Mike T’s part especially when you consider he also held out. Do people forget the Jets got to the Conference Finals without him?
When will the hurting stop?
Contributor to Lighthouse Hockey not sure if I'm the Sniper or the Enforcer.
I'm so happy to see Sanchez succeeding!
He’s looking like a true franchise quarterback!
Is it NFL time yet?
The way Rex talked about all the work he did this offseason, it is def showing in his games. (fingers crossed) I just want him to play like this all season. I wonder how he wil handle adjustments once opposing coaches have a few weeks of film to understand how to better attack Sanchez. I think he will handle that good also.
