whodeawhodat Posted December 22, 2020 Share Posted December 22, 2020 I may have missed it. Is he done for the season? Eiffen was getting abused on Sunday. We basically handled the rams DL with 4 OL imo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jetscrazey Posted December 22, 2020 Share Posted December 22, 2020 Elfein seems like a decent run blocker but a liability in pass blocking, which is why they've done well running to the left side recently. I want to see the Jets get a solid LG who can both run and pass block. That would make running off the left a staple of this offense with Becton in there too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fullblast Posted December 22, 2020 Share Posted December 22, 2020 Lewis is not with the team currently, while he deals with an off the field issue. Sounds like he has some mental health issues potentially that he's dealing with. He's done for the year. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Harris Posted December 22, 2020 Share Posted December 22, 2020 I'd don't expect to see Lewis again in the Green and White. I suspect he had a substance abuse or psych issue (which Gase could drive anybody to do, sorry if that's insensitive). either way he is unreliable and is due $7 mill next season with $1.6 mill dead cap hit if cut which isn't too bad. I think JD makes a major play for Scherff or Thuney and the other guard spot gets filled either by Clark, GVR or perhaps Elfein resigning, or rookie. Elfein has looked good in the run game but I've read his pass blocking is suspect. He seems better than Lewis which is damning to Lewis' future in concert with his recent issues. Good news is Mcgovern has improved so we have Mekhi and him, the other 3 spots are wide open for improvement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wish list is FA Thuney and another G within our late 1st rounder or 2nd rounder. If not there 3rd round, since we also could use draft prospects on Oline of RT and C.

He and Becton have been an excellent team and totally neutralized Donald on Sunday honestly, I must have missed it although my focus is usually on the seeing what becton is doing so the left side of the Oline. It seems like becton was doing both of their jobs out there. I do recall him missing blocks and getting just bulldozed on a pass rush. Maybe I just caught his bad plays though which is what they say about Oline... You only realize their mistakes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you spend a 4th round pick on a player intended to play G, he should be in the rotation, if not starting, by the end of the year. Cam has not been on the field all year despite the problems the Jets have had at G. Heck, they don't even let Clark play the line for field goals. There is a part to this story that we are not getting. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
