Carolina has one of the best running games in the NFL and I'm speaking of the 2010 Redskins, not the 2009 Redskins.

* It was nice knowing you in New York, Thomas Jones, but it looks like Shonn Greene is the man there now. So far, Greene has not only posted 263 yards in his first two games but he's also bringing the type of physical running style that the Jets will need to compete in Indy against the Jets. And by the way, for those of you who fuss about the zone scheme being too soft, does it look soft with the Jets? Obviously the Jets are better (and much more expensive) on the interior of their line, but the scheme can be dominant provided you have the personnel.

There were questions about Shonn Greene before last year and I was one of the guys asking them. Was he fast enough to get the corner and make teams respect his outside as well as his inside running? Was Greene going to be just another Big Ten banger who didn't translate to the NFL? Was he a one-year wonder who wasn't ready to make it on the next level?
After 263 yards in his first two playoff games, I think the questions are being answered.
Greene is a physical back who is a great fit in the one-cut zone game that the Jets like to run and that is a testament to his time at Iowa under Kirk Ferentz. Word on the streets is that the Texans had an interest in Greene in the third round because he was such a good fit. While Greene isn't a blazer, he is similar to Cedric Benson in terms of his style.
