I don't know I think Powell is a size 9 and Ridleys a size 11 they would be too tight.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gas2No99 Posted January 1, 2016 Share Posted January 1, 2016 If Ridley can play with the Pep and Cut in his Step like he did last Sunday vs. the Patriots, he should be able to relieve #29 for this week and let him rest. Hell, RUN T-BOH at them all game !!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoJoTownsell1 Posted January 1, 2016 Share Posted January 1, 2016 Ridley and Powell fill different roles. Ridley isn't a 3rd down back. No hands out of backfield. No powell is trouble Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bostonmajet Posted January 1, 2016 Share Posted January 1, 2016 Hopefully we can beat the Bills without Powell. I think we are on different trajectory than the bills. We should win this. If not, we don't deserve to be in the playoffs. We make it, we will be glad we rested Powell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jet in PA Posted January 1, 2016 Share Posted January 1, 2016 It's time for our bell cow back to prove his worth. The production of this guy had dropped significantly and it's time to feed the beast in the cold wind and possibly snow. We need to grind it out and Ivory is the back for the occasion.

Jetlife33 Posted January 1, 2016 Share Posted January 1, 2016 Ridley has lost all explosiveness. Don't trust him at all. We should've signed Vereen I say it every time Ridleys name comes up. Oh well, hopefully Powell will play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rexorcism Posted January 1, 2016 Share Posted January 1, 2016 Ridley sucks. Cut once the season ends for us. Please, Bilal, get well and play on Sunday. Ridley was coming off a major knee injury this season and after a long recovery is finally starting to show some explosiveness. I thought he played well last week and expect him to have a good game Sunday. Lets see what he can do now that hes finally looking healthy before we bury him.

jetscrazey Posted January 1, 2016 Share Posted January 1, 2016 Losing Powell would be a big blow to the passing game and 3rd down/2 minute offense Giacomini got some practice reps today so he should play, no Mario Williams will help. Kellen Davis also questionable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joewilly12 Posted January 1, 2016 Share Posted January 1, 2016 We are thin at RB if Powell cant go earlier in the season we had Stacey he's on the IR it may be Ivory and Ridley tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We need to rest Powell to ensure his health in the playoffs This is really driving me nuts. The broadcasters keep pointing out that he rarely fumbles, but the eye test tells me he puts the ball on the ground at least once a week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh well, hopefully Powell will play. Isn't this year 1 after a major knee injury? I am wondering if he might look different next year with another year to fully heal. JMO, but I think he is at least worth bringing back to camp next year to see if he regains any of that explosiveness. Wouldn't think anyone would sign him for much more than vet min for next year so low risk. if he still doesn't have it, cut him before the season.

joewilly12 Posted January 1, 2016 Share Posted January 1, 2016 Bilal Powell (ankle) is questionable for Week 17 against the Bills, but he's not expected to play. He hasn't practiced at all this week, and the New York Daily News' Manish Mehta calls Powell a "long shot" to play against the Bills. If he misses, Chris Ivory will get most of the reps, while the Jets lean on their passing game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We lose speed without him in there, with nothing to replace it. Didn't play in the first matchup either. I thought he would really make a difference in this game.

There is a reason for his dropoff though. Watching the game 5epkay from last week I saw him clutch his right knee and limp off a few times. Seems like it's nagged him for a few weeks.

AFCEastFan Posted January 1, 2016 Share Posted January 1, 2016 He has no td's and 248 yds this year rushing but 4 tds with 52 catches receiving.. Jaggy James White has numbers in the same general ballpark, at a fraction of the price. Wouldn't have been worth the $$ for the Jets to have signed him.

Gas2No99 Posted January 1, 2016 Share Posted January 1, 2016 For everyone $hitting on Ridley and how "he sucks," well, we have NO ONE ELSE so he HAS to step up and I believe he will. I may be wrong, but he had a strong game and FINALLY showed some quickness, and MORE importantly, you saw how he could juke and cut HARD laterally which netted him a few more yards. Maybe there was a little extra spark because he was facing his former employer, but he showed flashes. This game let him get the reps and CONFIDENCE to make cuts off that rehabbed knee to let Powell rest. Bills have a stout Run D, previous poster stated that it should come down to passing game for the win this Sunday, and I concur. Bills have a DEPLETED secondary unit COACHED by Dennis Thurman, Chan Chan should FEAST all day and work Thompkins and Enunwa so ALL depth SKILL players get reps/rotate and gain CONFIDENCE going forward. Injury will happen, we need ALL HANDS on DECK now that it's JANUARY FOOTBALL FOR THE JETS. First thing first: Beat Buffalo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UnitedWhofans Posted January 1, 2016 Share Posted January 1, 2016 Although, if it is bad weather, it could neutralize the Bills speed at RB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Villain The Foe Posted January 1, 2016 Share Posted January 1, 2016 Rest Powell and prepare him for the playoffs. If we lose to the Bills it will not be because we had Powell but that we totally dropped the ball. We will for sure need him for the playoffs though.
