He'll undergo surgery Wednesday afternoon. Not only is it a monster blow to the Jets' playoff chances -- Woody is their best run blocker by a good margin -- Achilles' surgery at age 33 is never good news. Wayne Hunter will take over at right tackle, and it's a safe bet that Patriots coach Bill Belichick will work to exploit that downgrade this Sunday. Woody will return at a $3.35 million base salary in 2011, but his best days may be behind him. Jan. 12 - 2:24 pm et
