With two receptions for 13 yards after two preseason games, No. 1 wide receiver Hakeem Nicks has yet to find his rhythm.

Although he made a spectacular one-handed catch in practice on Thursday, those sort of plays have been few and far between.

Jets: WR Hakeem Nicks – Nicks played much more in this game tonight then he has so far in the preseason. He had a good game and finished with 5 receptions for 71 yards.

Patriots: Sat out with the other starters.

Not exactly tearing it up.....

Might as well just cut LL now, RD is clearly superior.

....and how am I supposed to present a case based on anything else?

The stats are the stats.....I can't present what's not there. That would be guessing, i.e., making crap up.

Nicks will be the best player on the field come Sunday. Guy is a monster, had no problem taking him 2nd and 3rd rounds in fantasy drafts. I think he steps into the top 5 receiver group this year.

#21 was his fan loooong before anyone even knew who he was. Not a bad endorsement.



Nicks and Manningham???

1. I don't eat crow. If I'm wrong, I'm wrong, just like YOU would be if the Skins win.

2. We should probably let the Giants and the Skins decide this one. That will be a lot more fun than settling it via Madden.

3. THERE IS NO NUMBER THREE.

Doomed is going a little overboard. But I know that's your MO.

LL is nothing like Roy Willians....he is no ed reed but he sure isn't roy williams. LL has play FS and SS and the fact he hasn't gotten to the bro bowl isn't a knock on him.

Doughty is a solid backup and special teamer. But let's not pretend he's anything more than what he is. Our D is better off with LL at full strength and in the starting lineup.

The question was, who I would feel better lining up.

I can root for doughty....he's a likable guy who is a great dad, IMHO. Is he better? No, but there are other considerations to me than simply "winning" - like who I root for.

I would start Landry if I were the coach - I'm not the coach, just a fan.

I have other priorities that I deem even more important.

I was basing my question on who the better player is. RD may be the better dude but that doesn't help on the field.

Awesome, but that ISN'T what you asked me.

As far as how we play against the Giants

to quote an ooooooooooooold su'thern spiritual....

"we shall see."
