ZachEY Posted April 23, 2019 Share Posted April 23, 2019 2 hours ago, JiF said: You guys realize this is 3 day voluntary mini-camp that only teams with new Head Coaches are allowed, they're literally running zero of the playbook just doing positional drills and they only practice for 1 hour, right? And you do realize the Bell has been participating in every single offseason program other than these 3 days, and he's been on location since April 8th, right? lmfao There is literally no reason for him to be out there in April. April. For an hour a day. Bell is going to be a beast for the Jets. Not offering a take, just making a point. One that, incidentally, you kind of just proved.

Are you referring to the season that he rushed for 1300 hundred yards and added 85 receptions 700 yards with 11 total TD's and his team went 13-3? It was a while ago, so I get them confused.

When the guys show up, we’re going to try to help them get better." He also made it clear that he's not worried about the physical readiness of the 27-year-old Bell, who played five seasons in Pittsburgh before sitting out last year because of a contract dispute. "He has a pretty good training regimen that he goes through," Gase said of Bell. "And I don’t even remember the last time he had an offseason, it’s been a few years to where he was going through this kind of stuff. So he knows how to get his body ready for going through training camp and the regular season. So he’s been doing this for a minute." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s really hood to see williams, Gase and some of the coordinators out there barking out directions. I think I saw / heard JEFFERSON WR coach too.

When a simple OTA, during an offseason where the player has been to every voluntary team event to this point isn't there I'll assume there's good reason. Given that he's not missing anything of importance I'm not worried that he not there. Let's admit the truth here, those that are getting twisted just wanted to see him in a jersey and shorts running around. No real reason, just to feel good about a toy. As a football exercise there's no reason to be disappointed. So all the complaints that are posed as a football issue really start sounding like whining, even if they're not.

I know it's a stupid OTA but it looks more intense and precise than anything we saw in the Bowles years. Hell no it's not just a stupid OTA. This is where you prepare for the Superbowl. You just have to have that mindset. I remember listening to old interviews from Ed Reed and Ray Lewis talking about how they not only practiced stripping the ball, but they wanted to score on every turnover. That starts all the way back during mini camp/OTA's. You got to set that tone early so by the time the roster is finalized, you got a core of players who understand the goal. Alot of what has been missing from the Jets is that non-nonsense coaching staff and no-nonsense players. Greg Williams is a dog like that. I hope Gase is similar on the offensive side of the ball. There's been alot of debating back and forth this offseason about this draft, and no matter what direction they go, no matter what, Macc has to bring in some no-nonsense guys. Talking about changing the culture never changes the culture. You have to establish a culture and remove those who dont fit in it. I hope Gase and Williams establish this culture, because honestly, it really does start with the coaching staff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
