thebuzzardman Posted September 23, 2019 Share Posted September 23, 2019 Maybe Kalil can be the spokesman for the OL. Instead of playing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's about preposterous narratives and crushing on dudes. And I'll be the first one in line to defend them the second they admit they're really more into soap operas. But as long as they pretend to be interested in football the Jets are gonna keep marketing to the real housewives of Nassau county and unfortunately they are really good at playing to their base. And that sh*t isn't okay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just how is Gase suppose to fix the OL? Is he to somehow magically infuse these bums with talent? Bench them and play .... who? Joe Douglas has stated he will build the team starting with the OL. It's going to take two to three years of drafting and FA signings to fix the OL. Judge Gase/Douglas after that. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is what I have a problem with... Not that the Jets get into 3rd and 18 but why can every team in the league get a first down against the Jets with plays and the Jets never have an answer. Because of the last six years of GM's drafting and FA signings. Face it, we have one of the least talented rosters in the league. It takes years to fix but we do have the key piece already in place - a FQB in Sam. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jetscode1 Posted September 23, 2019 Share Posted September 23, 2019 8 hours ago, Wonderboy said: But moving Edoga to LT in his first start is scary. Kahlil And Winters have been horrendous. Both need to be benched. Beech has been equally horrible so maybe you’re right and roll the dice with the rookie at LT. Edoga LT, Osmile at G, Harrison C, Lewis G, Beech RT. Could it possibly be any worse. There was a time in the 90s when the Jets just finished 3-13 and I asked this very same question. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alentador31 Posted September 23, 2019 Share Posted September 23, 2019 I really dont know what is exactly going on. No time to watch film but I do watch every single game. And this isn't just a problem where our oline is physically getting beat but time and time again I see the oline have trouble picking up defenders off stunts, letting defenders get free rushes, and lineman looking lost with no one to block. All of those issues stem from coaching and communication. Not skill. Mind boggling when all I read during the off season was how great of a pickup our new oline coach was. Not sure what the fix is but there are people in that building getting paid a sh*t ton of money to figure it out and it needs to happen fast if we have any chance at salvaging the season.

I mean, you can do it in Madden, so I don't get why Gase doesn't just call the good plays for long TDs. One question is the postgame presser was roughly this, and Gase said in so many words you cannot throw a post when you can't protect.

Judge Gase/Douglas after that. Rebuild 6.0. O-line seems lost. Not sure if it’s the zone blocking but like I’ve said on here over and over why can’t they go with a 2 back set. Keep one in to block. How about a 2 set TE. One could block. How about some roll out plays. He’s the Offensive guru....supposedly. Mix it up. In all fairness the Defenses that we’ve faced have been tough but the line seems worse than it was last year with the same players. I’m willing to give him some time but I’m not encouraged Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greenbloodblitz Posted September 24, 2019 Share Posted September 24, 2019 10 hours ago, #27TheDominator said: What the **** are you talking about? I remember when the backup QB was the most popular guy on the team. Here it is the backup center? The guy couldn't unseat Spencer Long with a broken finger. I get thinking the coach is an idiot, but when every coach can't notice the greatness of Jonotthan Harrison, maybe it doesn't exist. He has sat for three different head coaches, 3 different OCs and 5 different offensive line coaches. Gase, Bowles, Pagano, Pollack, Loggains, Morton, Dennison, Chudzinski, Philbin, Pep Hamilton, and Steve Marshall did not recognize his greatness! Bravo! I think they should start Harrison though. Somebody's effing up calling the protections on the line. And apparently this guy was doing a good job till they brought in the retired guy. I have no dog in the fight I'm just tired of our quarterbacks getting wiped out an our Oline looking like a bunch of girls... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
