Wow, high praise from Joe Kleco about our defense and Williams in particular.

Strong words from the best defensive player in franchise history ...

"I think these guys are better (than we were)," Joe Klecko told ESPN.com on Friday in a phone interview. "They have three dominant pass-rushers. I firmly believe they'll chase records."

With improved pass coverage and an already strong pass rush, the Jets have a chance to be special on defense.

"It's a quarterback's nightmare," Klecko said. "I don't know of any offensive coordinator that would want to face this. They're going to be unstoppable."

I liked this one too.


"Klecko said Williams has the best hands of any young defensive lineman he's ever seen."

That's called getting steamrolled. Hilarious.

I'll go on record saying I'd take Suh 10 out of 10 times.

From a Jets perspective, there's NO WAY Thomas becomes the player he did without Payton behind center, and from a Denver perspective I'd say they'd be better team today with Suh on their line and "some other WR" catching touchdowns left and right from Payton . . .

Tell that to steelers as he single handedly knocked them out of the play-offs in pitt playing with Tebow

LOL -- 54 receptions for 834 yards in 21 regular season games with Tebow under center.

But that's OK -- he had four good catches against Pitt, so I guess that's more than Suh would have brought to the table . . .

Tebow completing 54 passes in a season, let alone to one guy, means the guy is a miracle worker. Give me a damN break. You have to have a 29 yard catch radius to catch a Tebow ball longer than 5 yards. Come on, man.

So how much better would he have been with Sanchez/Tebow?

You're proving my point -- a great WR will be hurt by a crappy QB more than he'll help him. The only guy who hurt Suh was Suh.

I could be wrong, but if we drafted White it would've been a season of "just wait until we get a real QB". With Williams, it's gonna be "I can't believe this guy dropped into our laps" . . .

Making your pOint? a great WR with a piss poor QB led the Broncos to a road playoff victory in Pl ittsburgh...when has a DT ever done that? Never.

And a 45-10 loss the next week. I wonder if a dominant DT might have helped then . . .

And stopped 45 point, no. But great wrs can make a qb...see mark Sanchez getting to 2 afc games with Braylon and Holmes carrying him.

If you think Braylon/Holmes helped Mark more than a strong OL/running game, I'll just assume you didn't watch football those years.

By your logic, Peat/Gurley would have been better picks to help our QB situation than White.

But that's OK -- you keep grabbing WRs in the hopes you win a random playoff game, and I'll keep stacking the defense in the hopes we create a SB contender . . .
