Light's better than Ferguson
Not that clear cut. Light is good. Brick is good.

Vollmer is miles better than anyone on the Jets roster playing right tackle. Slauson maybe the worst offensive guard in the NFL.Light's better than Ferguson
I'd break down the O-line like this:
Light > Ferguson
Mankins > Slauson
Mangold > Koppen
Moore > Connolly/Wendell
Vollmer > Hunter
Brandon Moore is not better than Stephen Neal. No way, no how!
Stephen Neal = Brandon Moore
Not that clear cut. Light is good. Brick is good.
The people who claim the Jets are more talented only look at when a player was drafted to determine "talent". "Oh Braylon Edwards was the 3rd overall pick he must be good." Ahhhh, no actually he sucks, he treats footballs like they have VD.
Here is how I see it...What receiver are you comparing Braylon Edwards to?
He has just as much pure if not more talent as Welker, and more than Tate, more than Branch.
Do you think Welker would be this good without Tom Brady? Oh wait..we can answer that question: no. He was a nobody in Miami with nothing to show for aside from some special team success. Same thing with Branch. He flourishes alongside Tom Brady's skill. What did he do in Seattle? Not much.
Braylon caught 10 TD passes in 07 from Derek Anderson, who is a backup right now. He then came to the Jets and had another very good season. He was able to do well with different teams unlike Welker.

Light = FergusonSo, for the sake of finding some kind of consensus.....
Light = Ferguson
Mankins > Slauson
Mangold > Koppen
Moore > Connolly
Vollmer > Hunter
Anyone got a serious beef with this?
Besides, Chris Chambers and Marty Booker were the starting wide receivers for the Miami Dolphins in 2006.In 2006, Welker had 67 catches for 687 yds with only two starts with bust Joey Harrington and a washed up Dunte Culpepper throwing to him.
Welker is bad example for the argument you are trying to make.

You get the BIG picture?

In essence, Tom Brady makes his receivers while the NY Jets receivers make Sanchez a stiff, as opposed to a complete stiff. That's your argument.Here is how I see it...What receiver are you comparing Braylon Edwards to?

I just saw this post on a Jets board (it's the topic of another thread here) and thought it might spark some interest.
Not "no talent" but if you look at our roster and you look at NEs roster we are more talented by a wide margin. They just have a wide gap at the most important position. switch the QBs and the Jets would have gone undefeated. I don't think people realize how great Brady is.
You are too kind to Mark Sanchez! Below average?Yeah, they have tons of talent but, their below average QB is keeping them down. :rolleyes2:
Which reminds me...
One of the dumbest arguments I ever saw on a football forum (and that's saying something) was when some troll wrote, "If Brady's so good, how come he wasn't drafted until the 6th round?"
:bricks:
