I'm confused. It's pretty much been acknowledged by anyone in the business that he was a turnstyle last season.

Couple quotes that stuck out:

"I see many, many more great things, and I see the upside, I see the movement skills, the explosiveness. Those are the things I see on film"

"You'd have to ask (former OL coach) Bill Callahan. I think he's in the directory in Dallas." ( on why Hunter Struggled last season )

"until they ship him out of this building or until they shoot me dead in my office, that sonofagun is going to be the starting right tackle"

Is this legit? Or more Jets bravado? I was really hoping Ducasse was going to beat him out this TC,.. Guess only time will tell but this is a strange occurrence for a new guy to the team fully endorsing one of the weakest links.

A Censored Race War
The media ignore racially motivated black-on-white crime.
By Thomas Sowell




Thomas Sowell


When two white newspaper reporters for the Virginian-Pilot were driving through Norfolk, and were set upon and beaten by a mob of young blacks — beaten so badly that they had to take a week off from work — that might sound like news that should have been reported, at least by their own newspaper. But it wasn’t.

The O’Reilly Factor on Fox News Channel was the first major television program to report this incident. Yet this story is not just a Norfolk story, either in what happened or in how the media and the authorities have tried to sweep it under the rug.

While the media continues to rip us, its good to see Keller is believing in Sparano. He goes on to say that things are much different now than before in terms of coaching style and the attention Sparano commands.

Quote:
NEW YORK -- New Jets offensive coordinator Tony Sparano's in-your-face, no-nonsense style has drawn positive reviews so far, and tight end Dustin Keller said the biggest key is that Sparano will hold players accountable for their performance.

"He definitely runs a tighter ship than I've seen from anyone before, and he’s not going to let anyone slip up," Keller said last night at the United Way's Gridiron Gala, where Jets right guard Brandon Moore and Giants right guard Chris Snee were honored for their community service. "I think that’s when problems do arise. It’s going to continue. You can tell it’s not just a one day or an OTA thing, this thing is going to keep on going and going, and I think we need it."

Keller joked that he's surprised Sparano's voice is as strong as it is after nearly three decades of coaching. He didn't go so far as to say there was a lack of accountability last year under former offensive coordinator Brian Schottenheimer, but Keller has seen a difference.

"When Sparano is in there talking, all eyes are on him," Keller said. "It’s a change. Before, I would say it was a little more laid-back. But with him it’s more stern, and he just has everybody’s attention, and I think guys are paying more attention to details now more than ever."

Keller added: "Most all the guys have been very accountable to themselves, to the things they're doing, but I think this year more than ever. Everything from the details of how far you need to line up and everything, guys already have that stuff down, and if you don’t, he’s kind of coming down on you. And that’s how it’s going to be all season, you can already tell."

Keller also echoed what coach Rex Ryan recently hinted, that Sparano's system allows players to help each other more, instead of for instance leaving a tackle out on an island. Keller said there are more calls designated for specific situations, rather than catch-all calls, taking the gray area out. The additional calls also give the Jets more chances to use double teams, he said.

"There are a lot more options for us to help each other out in this," Keller said. "We have a lot more calls, so it's more stuff you have to memorize, but in the grand scheme of things, we’re all going to be able to help each other out a lot more. It's hard to give any exact examples, but it is, it’s there."

Keller said the Jets are still focusing on the base offense but they have been mixing in some "22 personnel" sets, in which there are two tight ends and two backs. In those sets, he said Jeff Cumberland, who is coming off a season-ending Achilles tear, is the second tight end.
