However, when you watched the games and how Etienne was starting to not only get more opportunities but clearly show he had more burst and wiggle than Robinson, it was an easy decision. Especially in a pass happy offense.

It was always a good trade because running backs rarely ever come back from achilles injuries. Robinson steadily declined as the season went on.

He's a good guy by all accounts but he wasn't doing anything special here and the Jets made him a healthy scratch many times when they were fighting for a playoff spot.
