NY Times "Feel Good" Jets Coverage

Explain to me how our thinking differs on X's and O's. And I'm not sure how the Times' coverage of sports drives a reader to the tabloids. All of the papers have questioned whether or not Vilma was/is happy in the 3-4. Everyone's written the Pennington comeback saga. What is so different about the Times' coverage?

 

I want what Karen gave me today a sophisticated football story that would make Dr Z proud. I wanted to learn how Vilma's play responsibilites have changed playing in 3-4 vs 4-3. Vilma made his money the past few year playing a "react to flow" type MLB. Now he has to play a much more discipline type of game that many times puts him on back side of play. I had wondered how he felt about that.

 

it's been pretty well documented from DAY 1 how vilma's been adversely affected. maybe it just took karen 16 weeks to figure it out.

 

Boy tough crowd.

Everyone could speculate before but now there is also a body of work to look at .

 

But how has Elmo been affected by the switch to the 3-4? That's what I need to know.

 

aha!! you've cracked the krouse code!! "sesame street" is all about teaching the alphabet!! where better to get your fill of X's and O's?

it's genius, i tell ya!!

 

Thanks, shockey, but your earlier point is quite valid.

More cutting-edge Jets' Xs and Os upcoming from the NYT:

CB Aaron Glenn is a bad fit in the cover-2.
WR Lam Jones can't run pass routes.
QB Joe Namath doesn't feel comfortable in Lou Holtz' veer.

 

Joe Walton to be fired.

 

HB - a little late for you to be jumping on the band wagon -- don't ya think? Go back and read your previous posts on thread-- you seem to think the Times coverage is fine.

 

And nothing's changed. Everyone wrote training camp stories about how the 3-4 could affect Vilma. This was a nice story that was updated with his stats, fresh quotes and how he and Rhodes study opposing offenses.
