So how many WRs do people think we are dressing this week? 

Looking like another day of 20 Frank Gore Carries and 50 WR screens. 

Yay. 

 

Why not just forfeit the game.

This team? Nah. Our guys have too much fight in them for that. 

Joe says our guys are PISSED that the media doesn't take them seriously. Look out.

Adam Gase on Jets WR options after injuries: 'Whoever's got a pulse right now'

The New York Jets are one of the most banged-up teams in the NFL and are particularly decimated at the receiver position.

It's gotten to the point where coach Adam Gase is just searching for warm bodies.

"Whoever's got a pulse right now, we're ready to go," Gase said of the Jets injuries at WR, per Greg Joyce of the NY Post.

Sam Darnold's top three receivers all dealing with injury.

Jamison Crowder (hamstring) is doubtful to play this week versus the Indianapolis Colts, the coach noted Thursday. Breshad Perriman won't practice today due to an ankle injury, and Chris Hogan is limited after dealing with a rib injury.

Braxton Berrios and Josh Malone are the only other wideouts on the roster. Lawrence Cager could get the call-up from the practice squad this week with all of the issues.

It's bad enough the talent surrounding Darnold was already sub-par. Adding injuries to the equation makes the situation even worse for Gang Green.

I pulled my tendon in my finger clicking on this.

[Jethead]

My beef is that Perriman and Herndon were forseeably unreliable and JD did nothing to mitigate.

Pretending we didn't have a WR issue was not a winning strategy.

Oh well, he's a rookie GM. Strategery!

At this rate Sam won't be "evaluated fairly" by some Jets Fans till two years after he's playing for another team.

Using a 2nd round pick on a WR is evidence Douglas did not "pretend" we didn't have a WR issue.  It's not exactly his fault we haven't seen him yet.  

The more likely answer is the one Darnold apologists don't want to hear:  The Mims pick was not made with Darnold in mind.  Nor was the 1-year deal for Perriman.

At the time of the draft i doubt it was contemplated that by week 3, crowder, perriman, bell, hogan, vincent smith, Jeff smith and mims would all be out, and that doctson would opt out.  Then throw in that herndon is too rusty to play after missing a year.  That’s 9 guys who can’t contribute this week.

Let's face it JD effed up at WR. Ok, given how bad the rest of the team is it didn't cost us the Super Bowl. But, it wasn't a great job.

Deny it all you want to. The proof is right in front of your eyes.

Yes because we all know a draft class can be evaluated properly 2 weeks into the season.

We have two receivers on the entire active roster and Cager "COULD" get a call up?  Is this front office for real?   WTF are they waiting for?  Why is he NOT already called up???  This team is truly clueless....

Gotta figure Cager getting called up is a given. 

Still surprised they didn't bring in another WR earlier in the week. 

But, I wouldn't worry, I'm sure the Jets know what they are doing . . .

You are missing the point.  At least you give yourself a fighting chance to upgrade the talent at receiver in this receiver rich draft.  Depending on a bunch of JAGs like Jeff Smith, V. Smith, Berrios, Perriman etc. is a losers move.   Look at the Eagles, taking Reagor, Hightower AND Q. Watkins.  the Raiders taking Ruggs and B. Edwards, or even the Broncos with Jeudy and Hamler.    With all the picks JD was able to acquire during the draft, the fact that he only took one receiver was a mistake.  That is the simple truth of the matter.

My point is why wasn't he already called up?  Even before the Crowder injury they only had 3 healthy receivers on the active roster and they already knew Crowder was banged up.  Yeah they definitely know what they are doing...

Having 9 picks and using only one on serious position of need like receiver (in draft where there was a lot quality at the position), shows to me that JD did undervalue the position.

Why does it matter when he's officially called up . If he's on the practice squad he's allowed to practice which is all that  really matters.

Those of us who believed Perriman to be a downgrade over Robbie were shouted down. Consensus was JD had a steal with him.

So I guess two games make a season and Josh Allen is the league MVP right.

I'm pointing out how now Darnold's terrible performance is blamed on lack o'dem wippinz, when Perriman was heralded as a stud a few short months ago.

I stand by my belief that Perriman is not a good football player. Nothing is 100% but the evidence is that Perriman has terrible hands and is as fragile as Chad Pennington.

Let's let Perriman get back on the field before we make bold proclamations. And are you saying any  QB in the league  would fare much better with Josh Malone, Braxton Berrios and Chris Hogan as their starting wr's.

It’s not bold to predict he will not adequately replace Robbie when Perriman has one of the worst injury histories in the league—plus the bad hands and other issues. Was a pretty obvious call, actually.

As to the second point, that’s exactly what I am saying. There are QBs who would perform better than Darnold in this situation.

Actually it wasn't Robbie for the most part was a one trick pony. Perriman has more speed and runs a better route tree.  Plus to my knowledge Perriman isn't one step away from being banned from the NFL.

Except that wasn’t what he asked. He asked if any QBs would fare better than Darnold in this situation. My answer is most of the NFL’s starters would do exactly that.

Was he working with the first team offense?  Because, you know that does make a difference.

Just call up Cager and see if he's legit or not.

I hope they give  him a shot, but if  he isn't given a shot it is probably more of indictment of Cager as a player. If he can't crack this lineup, even as a rookie, that's not a great sign.

I was concerned about his injury history too.  If healthy I thought he could do an adequate job...  That is why I just KNEW we would take a couple of receivers in this draft...

Another JN psycho/emotional incapacity to accept reality    this guy is CLEARLY inferior to Robbo (whio incedentally had a 5 game stretch where he caught 6 TD s form a QB that threw 18 all year)

Yall wanna talk about the brilliant roster management of carrying 5 qbs again? Lol
