Popular Post Beerfish Posted September 17, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted September 17, 2021 The problem with those highlights though some impressive plays is most off them were toss ups one on one man coverage to the sidelines. Seems to be a lack of money maker 1st down routes. Now is that mims fault? Maybe not but you have to know and run good patterns all over the route tree and I suspect that is part of the problem. Also as I said the other day you can't sprinkle in a guy on these type of plays because the Defense will know right away what the jets are running. Mims career will go one of two ways, he learns, looks at a guy like Davis who started off slow in his career and now looks number one ish or he turns into Stephen Hill. 10 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

May the best players, playing the best, play. Starting NFL jobs should be earned by meeting or exceeding what the Coaches are asking them to do. Generally. they should not be handed out to those who failed to earn it on the basis of some theoretical potential. My faith is in the Coaches who see these players every day to make these determinations. I'm going to guess we'll see Mims Sunday, and he'll get a few opportunities. We'll see what he does with them, and what others do with theirs. 10 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some guys are elite because of their route running/separation and some are elite because of their ability to make contested catches. Mims seems to win those 50/50 balls when given the chance. There are times Wilson will be in trouble and no one is open and a toss up to Mims deep would be far more productive long term than forcing one into the smaller guys like Crowder/mims. As for Hill, he couldn't catch when open and didn't win 50/50 balls and wasn't a great route runner. Meaning, he was just bad. I don't see that with Mims. Hopefully he gets his chances. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Sammybighead Posted September 17, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted September 17, 2021 Guys we have a very good WR Corp. Enough with Mims already. I get everyone is frustrated because he's a second round pick and they want to feel justified in drafting him. But let me repeat. WE HAVE A GOOD WR CORP. We don't need him. Let him develop or let him fail, it's up to him. There isn't some coaches conspiracy to keep him out. Others are better right now, period. 5 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

65 Toss Power Trap Posted September 17, 2021 Share Posted September 17, 2021 I sure hope this coaching staff ignores all of the expertise coming from the media and fans. I like Mims, but the coaching staff isn't trying to lose, they're trying to put the players on the field that give this team the best chance of winning. Why are fans so much smarter than them? If the coaches get it wrong, they're fired, they have to move their families. NFL coaching pays well but the pressure is high and the changes are constantly affecting family life. Meaning, Mims is not being targeted nor disliked, he will play if he is the best option. The coaches have made it clear that he has been behind than some of the other receivers in learning the system. Mims was in the mix Sunday. He didn't get on the field much, because the offense didn't sustain drive so that the coaches were able to start substituting. But he played. He preformed. The cream will rise to the top. If he wants it, he will be an absolute professional, learn the system better than the other receivers, become a leader, and become indispensable. In recent months, I have seen more explanations and leeway for why Mims isn't playing or doing well than any other Jets player. He's a big boy, he can make it so either they can't keep him off the field, or he demands a trade, becomes another teams number one, and shoves it up the Jets every time they play him. I've never seen or felt that kind of juice from Mims. I just don't think the coaches are idiots for not playing him more. Even though some of the experts in Jet Nation disagree. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JD's pride of authorship with his draft picks, otherwise Mims who I had high hopes for wold be prep team. I think we all see now why he fell. We thought this could be a great value pick, but there were obvious reasons that other GMs passed. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jamison Crowder said that if this offense gets rolling, which it won't if the protection and quarterback issues don't get fixed, that all the receivers can "eat." Given Mims speed, size, and catch radius, he will be a factor if he can absorb the scheme mentally. If Zach and the offense get the passing timing down, and if the running game gets somewhat going, it's pretty exiting what these receivers might be able to do. CD, Mims, and Berrios had good plays Sunday. EM did not, but the coaching staff is super high on him. And then we have Crowder and Cole coming back. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from the NY Jets Training Camp Suicide Watch desk. Right, and aren't the coaches constantly seeing preparation and effort in practice and film sessions. Saleh harps that his "all gas" approach has to do with the effort a player puts into all the details every day. I think the coaches even care about how a player walks in the building and whether they seem mediocre or not in all the little things. This team is really big on guys fitting the culture and putting in the mental horsepower. I like Mims too, and I don't know this, but if he has a "good enough" attitude, he won't be a fit for this new regime. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It appears part of Mims challenge is he doesn't know enough to play the other WR positions, where he might be better than the guys playing (Berrios, for example), but he doesn't know the routes enough to be trusted or reliable for Wilson. I expect Mims to be active, but I expect he'll just spell Davis when Davis needs a breather. Until he learns the other spots, I doubt we're gonna see him much at Z or slot. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't get why people are throwing the "you can't coach 4.3, 6'3"" stuff out there. Jamarcus Russel was a physical juggernaut, Vince Young was physically talented. But the physical abilities won't get you there in the NFL, you have to have the other stuff too. I get that Mims can run straight down the field faster than most, but defenses aren't going to let that go unguarded for too long. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But we're approaching it from completely different angles. My aggravation is not seeing playmakers in the game. Who says Zach doesn't perform BETTER on off platform/off script throws? Favre is in the Hall of Fame by exploiting that very thing. Who says it's better for Zach's development to have a receiver in the right spot who can't gain separation or hold on to the ball vs. playing street ball with a guy who makes catches and has high YAC potential? 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
