Le’Veon Bell on Jets offense under Gase

Free agent Le'Veon Bell said opponents would call out running plays under ex-Jets coach Adam Gase.

"I don’t consider a 'HB dive' on third and short EVERY TIME an opportunity,” Bell said on Twitter. “We line up, they call out the play, that’s not opportunity, on top of the play being a dive. I can’t make [stuff] shake with that.” Bell blames the Jets' playcalling for his decline the last two seasons. It's not the first time a Jets player has called out Gase, who benched LG Alex Lewis for the final six games of 2020 over similar comments and was criticized by ex-safety Jamal Adams. Bell didn't find much success after his New York release, where he mostly served as a backup in his 12 game run with the Chiefs. The 29-year-old expects to sign with a team before the start of the season.

Yes Adam Gase was bad. We don't need to reassure ourselves on that. He sucked and rode the coattails of Manning.

This is on us as an org and Sam now. He's in a better situation. He doesn't need to be a world beater this year, just show progress.

Another player blaming Gase.

Gase was bad...but he has become sort of a punching bag just like some want to put it all on Darnold.

Fact of the matter, Bell lost a step or two.  Combine that with a bad offensive scheme and you get the jets.

Gase sucked. 

But Bell isn’t the Pitt RB anymore and proved that in KC.   I mean he speaking truth…but also using that to deflect IMO away from the fact he doesn’t have it anymore.   That year off did him in to a degree. 

Lots of teams have poo play callers.  Think Shula has the best win % of any OC in Carolina.

      Gameday Thread: KC-CAR

      By mav1234 · Posted

      KC has a very good defense this year. It is 5th overall. Yes, still worse than last year, but their offense is considerably worse. Their passing D may be their "weakness" but they still allow fewer than 20 ppg. BY completed several deep passes yesterday, and he was able to threaten downfield in ways he didn't seem capable of before the benching. I'm not necessarily worried about his ability to connect deep anymore. What to me was impressive was that he did all this without a run game. We used the pass to set up what little running success we had. Wild.

      Bryce developing before our eyes

      By Bear Hands · Posted

      Solid and fair assessment.   I will say, one of the big things I noticed yesterday was that he wasn't shy to step up into the pocket in the face of pressure.  He's trusting the IOL.  And they took care of Chris Jones yesterday.  We had clean pockets but also good success rate vs. pressure which just hasn't been the case with Bryce.   If he has more confidence the OL gets it done and he can navigate and step up for throws, that's huge.  It's one of the biggest things that's held him back.  He was previously bailing quickly and just too easily throwing away or making dead plays.     He was finding his 2nd to 3rd reads within structure/without bailing in the pocket.  That was nice to see, as much concern I have with him.  And the overall limitations will always be there. Time to back it up this week against the Bucs.

      Some Thoughts on Our Remaining Games

      By 45catfan · Posted

      Suddenly the Cowgirls look like our best chance for a win remaining. I think the Bucs are playing better than the Falcons of late.  Our lone game versus the dirty birds is in the ATL where we always struggle.  The Cardinals are marginally better than I thought they would be. We are not beating the Eagles, they are starting to roll. I'm saying two at most, next week at home versus the Bucs and the Cowgirls.
