I bet you will post the same next year,we just don't utilize the short passing game and I still can't figure out why.

Probably. Not sure if we'll have Dunbar in the picture next year. But, yeah, passes to the RBs really ought to be a staple for us. And it's effective when we use it, too. Not sure why it seems to be underutilized.
We do have a lot of options on offense, though. I guess that's probably part of it.

From what I saw, even from Demarco, the blitz pickup from the RB position, left a lot to be desired. So, hopefully, if Murray is back, there is an upgrade behind him.

Spiller, who missed seven games with a broken collarbone, managed three runs of 20-plus yards on only 78 carries. The Jets averaged a run of at least 20 yards every 50 attempts this season. Spiller averages a 20-plus yard gain every 21 attempts in his five-year career.

Spiller, who has a career average of 5.0 yards per carry, is expected to be the most desirable free agent running back not named DeMarco Murray this offseason. The Jets have plenty of areas of need with more than $40 million in salary-cap space. New general manager Mike Maccagnan’s to-do list must include adding players with an explosive dimension. Spiller, undaunted by the intense spotlight in the biggest media market, fits the bill.
