Let’s theorize what Mims did to get in the coaching staff’s doghouse

[jetscrazey]

If the best players are going to play, it has to include Mims on a day like today. What did this guy do?

[Integrity28]

[munchmemory]

Seriously, the coaches don't think he's better than the other guys.

[Biggs]

I hated that he didn't score a TD on that catch on the sidelines.  Agree he should be playing more.

Nothing.

That's the problem.

[Saul Goodman]

The coaches are looking for tough, hard working players that play to/exceed their potential. That’s why Berrios plays over Mims. 

[joewilly12]

Does Robert Saleh have a daughter old enough to date Mims or maybe he made a pass at his wife. 

[MR.GANGGREEN28]

Yeah idk what happened, seems a little fishy to me.

[ScarletKnight89]

I think it's just a combination of the food poisoning and maybe just being really behind because of it like they said.

I don't see why they wouldn't play Mims. JD drafted him in 2nd round last year. I refuse to believe the coach JD picked, is trying to bury him on the depth chart because he doesn't like him.

I think they really just feel he missed a lot of time and possibly isn't fully where they want him to be right now. 

[IndianaJet]

There were stories in camp that he was often out of position. 
 

You don’t get on the field if you don’t know where to line up. 

[munchmemory]

Mims is one of those prototypical Jet players who gets a bunch of buzz, we hang onto for no explainable reason, and never really accomplishes much.

[ZakkAttak]

He's a strange one.

Perfectly able to drag defenders for a first down in preseason only to run out of bounds with one defender to beat in a real game.

Still i guess he saved us all of 0 seconds given it was the 2 minute warning.

[More Cowbell]

I got a feeling Mims doesn't know his assignments 

[jgb]

Can’t run routes. Athletic specimen so good for a go route or jump ball here and there.

[Larz]

[St Louie Jet Fan]

He could have dropped the ball as good as the rest of them if given the chance.

Holy hell, kinda dark Joe. Go lay down, take a nap. 

[Jetworks]

Watch the play before the one where he caught the pass (the Berrios conversion). If you can't figure it out from that, I can't help you.

[BUM-KNEE]

Getting food poisoning?

Is this the new form of suspension?

[BigRy56]

He had sex with Mike Lafleur

just play this kid, I don’t wanna see Jeff Smith anymore

This was weird.  Like he didn’t want a td.

Sadly for us, the kid is a mush.

Seems like a lack of awareness in terms of clock management

This is such a dumb tweet. 

Yes lets compare Mims to 1 TE, 2 RB, and the 2 WR that didnt do much.

Mims just seemed content to have caught the ball, and showed no effort to get his body under control and fight to get into the EZ.   At least he got out of bounds…

 

[varjet]

I think there is a bit of a theme here.  The Jets want players who play smart.  I don’t know how smart Mims and Herndon are.

There is something off with him.  Obvious.   Only a matter of time before Mims injures his knee and flips the ball to a defensive guy Santonio Holmes style.

Remember when Todd Bowles wouldn't sign Tyran Mathieu 

I do need a nap.

But he lets his kid call him Grandpa!

[Peace Frog]

I am still mystified by that draft. 

Pick 48 comes up. 

We needed big/tall fast WR. NEEDED. 

A 6-3 215 4.38 guy, huge wingspan, contested catch expert is sitting right there and JD should have run up to the table. (Virtually). 

Yet he didn’t. He traded back 11 spots to 59. 

And Mims still happened to be there, so he took him. 

Any one of those 10 teams (or anyone else trading up) could have grabbed him. 

Why? 

Something is off with this guy. And I’m a fan. 

Hate to say it but we shoulda taken Claypool. He was the better prospect and will be a much better pro.

Jeff smith is the best route runner i've seen.

That excuse is not enough sorry, watch some of his tape, Mims runs a very good go route and can make contested catches. Jeff smith on the other hand?

Most of the game the NY Jets had 1 legitimate NFL WR on the field.

I’m sorry it doesn’t convince you but it has convinced Saleh.
