This one has the feel of a big game so let's give you the big-boy news first:
Lydon Murtha starts at right tackle for an inactive Vernon Carey. Pat McQuistan continues to start at right guard. Rookie John Jerry will back up both players.
As I tweeted earlier and posted in the comments section of the last post, it makes more sense to go with a more experienced tackle such as Murtha than to move Jerry, who has not been good enough to keep his guard job, to right tackle and start him there. You don't promote and move a player to a new spot for the blitzing, changing Jets defense.
Look for the Jets to match Jason Taylor versus Murtha a lot today.
The only other lineup change for Miami today is Davone Bess starts for Brian Hartline, who is now on injured reserve.
The inactives for today are Nate Ness, Ikaika Alama-Francis, Matt Kopa, Vernon Carey, Eric Chiaciuc, Mickey Shuler, Ryan Baker, and Chris Baker.
We are blogging live from the New Meadowlands Stadium. Gotta tell you for $1.6 billion, this place is nice. But not that nice. It is mostly, just big. But personality?
Not so much.
Meet me in the comments sections for the live blog. I think I smelled a New York Jets collapse being cooked up at the tailgate while I was coming into the stadium.
D may well win this game for us.

WHY BROWN? Why do you keep running up the middle? Has there been ANY room up the middle all year when you run the wildcat?

henne calls timeout b/c he thought wildcat was better in this situation. Wildcat wildcat wildcat, FG
Posted by: heepman | December 12, 2010 at 04:45 PM
Tortured's Mom probably took his laptop away.
Posted by: rand_the_fin | December 12, 2010 at 04:45 PM
It's a little too early to start gloating. We go up by 6 after this drive. They only need one deep ball to take the lead
Posted by: Marc | December 12, 2010 at 04:45 PM

Brown has no business touching the ball-he goes down like tissue paper if anyone is in the area
Posted by: David | December 12, 2010 at 04:46 PM
If we win out and not make the playoffs then two wild card teams are 10-6 or better. That makes me upset..
