The AFC Championship Game: I’m Peyton Manning, and You’re Not
By Danny Atkinson
Jets on Offense
With the two-headed monster of Shonn Greene and Thomas Jones the Jets will ride
their No.
1 run game hard and effectively.
New York has averaged 43 carries and 188
yards the past seven games.
The Colts feature an undersized speed defense and ranked
24th
against the run this season.
The power and speed combination of Greene and Jones
should be able to run the ball right up the gut and over Indy, especially with an offensive
line featuring all-Pros Alan Faneca and Nick Mangold.
However if Indy is able to limit
big plays on the ground all the pressure in the world falls on Mark Sanchez and the Jets
offensive line to protect him.
New York will need Sanchez to be nearly perfect to beat the
Colts.
Sanchez will have to be smart about taking advantage of his sports, whether it’s
with play action or the occasional deep ball.
Don’t expect the Jets to make heavy use of
the passing game.
