EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. -- It started after the last game, when Matt Forte openly questioned offensive coordinator John Morton's playcalling. Forte did the talking, but many of his teammates felt the same way he did: To be successful, they needed more running, less passing.
The next day, the players expressed their concerns to Morton, a first-time coordinator with a passing background. On Thursday night, you saw the result of that meeting.
The New York Jets ran on their first three plays and they kept running until the numbers stopped at 41 carries for 194 yards and three touchdowns.
