mrcoops Posted September 17, 2019 Share Posted September 17, 2019 I think I had lost interest and gone to bed by that point but, yes, I also read he was benched for Harrison in the 2nd half. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Jetpain Posted September 17, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted September 17, 2019 Kalil was handed the starting job based on his resume not on his current performance. Sam played his best football when Harrison was at center the end of last year. While Harrison is clearly not the Jets long term answer at center, he is better than Kalil at his point in tiime. The O line has missed more blocks and looked worse than I have seen in many years. 5 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warfish Posted September 17, 2019 Share Posted September 17, 2019 lol, I still recall all the posters who screamed that the O-line was rebuilt, because the Raiders guy, and then Khalil, and that Harrison was great too..... So far, one of the all-time worst O-line we've ever seen. And Gase owns it, not Douglas. 2 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More Cowbell Posted September 17, 2019 Share Posted September 17, 2019 Kalil shouldn't even be on the team He is totally incapable of playing C. I shudder to think Harrison gets injured and we have to plug this turnstile in. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jetworks Posted September 17, 2019 Share Posted September 17, 2019 I would give Kalil another shot, but with Harrison next to him at guard in place of Winters. If memory serves, he was a swing player with the Colts before coming here? I say this because while I recognize that Kalil hasn't been particularly good, a significant reason for that (and any other C) is just how spectacularly bad Winters is; and it's not a physical thing, the guy has the tools. But he (and I've said this for years) struggles with some basic concept stuff that you shouldn't see at this level or time of service.

SomebodytoAnybody47 Posted September 17, 2019 Share Posted September 17, 2019 Gase is the one who wanted Khalil. He kept saying when are you getting me my center. Obviously Douglas takes blame too but..yeah. At least Gase isn’t leaving his guys in just because. I’m glad he’s benching them and doing something if they’re playing like crap. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bleedin Green Posted September 17, 2019 Share Posted September 17, 2019 Kalil's own play has not only sucked, but he was making the line calls, right? Because if so, that was an unforgivable level of awful last night. Never before have I seen such a ridiculous volume of rushers coming through completely unblocked. And we're not even talking blitzers here, but actual DL that just came off the line with no one even trying to block them. Insane. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At one point, it seemed like we were going to the LOS and yelling out the plays we were going to run but saying it 2-3 times loud and clearly to make sure the Browns heard everything we were going to do on that play. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jetsfan80 Posted September 17, 2019 Share Posted September 17, 2019 The Kalil signing was fine. If Harrison were any good he'd have won the job, unless of course Gase was just starting the guy his buddy brought in. I guess we'll find out if he really is better. Somehow I doubt Harrison is much of an upgrade. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sperm Edwards Posted September 17, 2019 Share Posted September 17, 2019 My guess is he was pulled more for precautionary reasons than for performance. He’s getting paid a good amount for a guy just pulled out of retirement last minute, the player has a recent history of injuries, the game was well out of hand, and it’s not like he’s protecting the young FQB right now anyway. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So far, one of the all-time worst O-line we've ever seen. And Gase owns it, not Douglas. Gase does NOT own this OL. That's absurd. He's only been here since January and he doesn't have control over the draft. If you insist on finding something to blame Gase for you can blame him for the kicking situation. That should have been rectified before TC even started. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rangers9 Posted September 17, 2019 Share Posted September 17, 2019 If the coaches are willing to bench highly paid players and go with lower paid guys who play better that's a good thing. If they did bench Kalil it only makes their org and Douglas look bad. But if they can handle that and go with best available player that will give the team a message and in the long run you will get more production. The impression we all have is that Gase and Williams only care about winning and won't play guys who don't produce or deserve it. The guy way down on the bench who never gets a chance might over produce if he gets an opp and in that case play them. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C Mart Posted September 17, 2019 Share Posted September 17, 2019 Rich Cimini @RichCimini Kelvin Beachum catching a lot of flak. Closer look: He recorded a “pass-block win” on 21 out of 23 plays in which win/loss was recorded, per @ESPNStatsInfo. His only two “losses” came when he was singled up. He “won” 14 of 16 in which there was no double team. #Jets This said, Beachum allowed two sacks. And he acknowledged afterward that it wasn’t a good performance. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CTJetsFan Posted September 17, 2019 Share Posted September 17, 2019 I understood why we signed Kalil, but I didn't understand a) the timing of the move, b) the $ we gave him and c) the fact that we were handing him the starting job. Center is the 2nd most important position on offense. Kalil had retired (mentally checked out), lost a good deal of weight and had been mediocre the past 2 years. I know Harrison is not an All-Pro, but Sam and the rest of the line had a rapport with him and they looked decent in the pre-season. Sam and the o-line spent the entire off-season working together. I get JD wanting to get Sam what he thought was the best protection (and call help) he could. If so, he should've done it before camp started. One thing I noticed in the Bills game was that when Kalil setup in pass protection (after snapping the ball), I thought he was collapsing back way too far before digging in and engaging the d-lineman. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jgb Posted September 17, 2019 Share Posted September 17, 2019 He pass blocks as effectively as a bench. A short one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
