Bilal Powell is also back

Jets finally get their man! A new GM caps off a roller coaster of an off season and you would have to say they are in a better position at the end of it. At least we have hope!!!

hots · 10-06-2019 10:39am

Good signing from the sounds of it, the good thing to see imo is a very long contract, means he's been given reassurance that his success isn't tied to Gase I would imagine.

Thanks. Amusing they start with "it's a critical year for GM Mike Maccagnan." Perhaps a bit out of date :P

Not much newsworthy in Jets land at the moment, but Saturday, possibly the best player overall in J E T S history is inducted into the HOF. #68, Kevin Mawae. Congratulations, best center the team's ever had and perhaps one of the top 2 or 3 ever.

Not too much noteworthy from last night, starters looked good, depth didn't.... Corners and kickers were poor. Good to have football back though!

Avery Williams out for the season with an ACL injury

Yeah killer, although ILB is the one position where we look ok for depth. Hoping Cashman and another step into the void with a bit of luck.

Carli Lloyd (the first woman to earn a college football scholarship to an NCAA school at the Division II level or higher) has reportedly gotten an offer from a NFL team (possibly 2 teams) to kick in a preseason game Thursday. But Lloyd can’t make it work because the national team plays Portugal that night. She was at the Philadelphia Eagles’ practice last week. Things got serious when she sent a kick sailing 55 yards through the uprights. Lloyd, 37, was on the US Women’s World Cup championship teams in 2015. She was also a two-time FIFA women’s world player of the year. I wonder if the Jets were the team to make the offer?

franglan · 27-08-2019 10:54pm

From what I've seen she takes a fair run up to her kicks - would be interested to see her in a game situ.

It's just easy headlines, if she was actually getting calls (I doubt it), then so would a thousand male players be giving it a go.

Fair point and was addressed in this article from SI.

Taylor Bertolet kicks 2 field goals and misses 3 in the Jets' 6-0 win over Eagles.

Last year's kicker Jason Myers was 8-for-9 in the preseason, with three field goals from 50+ yards. The $5.5 million he's making this year from Seattle doesn't look so hefty, now does it?

With all the promise this season, they're still the Jets.

So what you're saying is don't watch the last preaseaon game... Girl this carli one a call so.

Big surprise cutting Polite. Production not there but a lit of beat writers saying that they never used him as a pure pass rusher which is his main strength. The 53 man they released yesterday definitely should change with waiver claims today. The Jets could possibly sign 2 CBs 1 WR 1 kicker 1 OLB and even 1 RB.

Yeah any time I noticed him in the pre season they seemed to be using him as an all around OLB, not really sure why as coming he seemed to be solely suited to a pass rushing roll. Maybe the FO felt they couldn't take a one trick pony onto the 53 given how poor the squad depth is.

The depth at CB, S, Linebacker and O-line has me fairly worried

Fined 100k in his few months with us, unclaimed on waivers and eventually stashed on the Seahawks practice squad.... sounds like he has an awful attitude and wasn't wanted aroudn the place, we didn't even try and stash him on our PS.

Seems like it was the right thing to do. Not knocked out by waiver signings but they will provide depth. I still think we need a CB or two in the next few days.

Yeah I was surprised Dortch didn't hold on to a spot, hoping him and a couple of others sneak back to the PS.

Bertolet’s gone. Kaare Vedvik, originally from Norway, is the Jets new kicker. And I understand he can punt, also. He didn’t have a great preseaon, either, but looked good before the start of the 2018 season... which ended before it even started because of an assault that left him with head and facial injuries, and some teeth were knocked out. Well, he's now out of dangers of violent Baltimore for the safety of New York City. :pac:

corner back 2 · 08-09-2019 7:33pm

Poor first half from Jets offence. Sam very shaky behind porous offensive line. He is looking for Bell on every play. 4 turnovers by defence is excellent.

Defence has been good, but I cant help feel that if they were playing against a competent QB, they'd be a couple of scores down by now

Igotadose · 08-09-2019 8:28pm

Seem to be settling in in the 3rd quarter. Only complaint was the roughing penalty that enabled the Bills the FG, very avoidable.

Whether the Jets have a kicking game at all remains to be seen. I have a feeling it's audition time next week. Why is it so difficult to find a kicker...

phatkev · 08-09-2019 8:38pm

Jaysus, Mosley goes off and the defence turns to sh1t

phatkev · 08-09-2019 8:48pm

ugh, they're going to end up losing this game

who'd off knew you'd need CB's to have a half decent defence! Johnson/Roberts are without a doubt the worst set of corners in the league

phatkev · 08-09-2019 9:13pm

"That was as bad a loss as you'll see", Ive definitely heard that somewhere before!

corner back 2 · 08-09-2019 9:18pm

Horrible stuff. Sam terrible missed Robbie deep twice late on. O line didn't help. Cant understand why Gase didn't have Sam roll out a bit more when the pocket was collapsing all the time. Sam had about 8 passes batted down. Our corners are terrible but the turnovers should have been enough to cover for that today.

the first one was definitely on Darnold but Anderson seemed to stumble on the second one, cant really but the blame on a QB for that.

The offensive play calling seemed to be all over the place for the majority of the game, some really suspect calls

franglan · 08-09-2019 9:57pm

Daryll Roberts on the last Bill TB absolutely pathetic. A returner not a starting CB in the NFL.

hots · 09-09-2019 12:35pm

Awful stuff, and all the things people have been saying all offseason as the problems, kicker, no corners, weak O line.

notobtuse · 09-09-2019 3:48pm

Still the same old Jets with a terrible fall-from-ahead loss?

corner back 2 · 10-09-2019 8:28pm

The early season optimism is gone even earlier than last year. Hopefully things will improve but its surely not a good sign that the Jets have moved on to their fourth kicker of the season after only 1 game played! If they dont win Monday an 0-6 start is very possible.

corner back 2 · 11-09-2019 4:59pm

More blows to early season optimism with Enunwa out for the season. Nathan Shepherd is suspended for 6 games for PEDs and could be cut. Not too much to be positive about and Sam was even sent home with strep throat.

notobtuse · 11-09-2019 5:51pm

Kaare Vedvik out… Sam Ficken in? Why no talk of bringing back Nick Folk who I hear is playing in some independent league this year and is not too shabby?

Heard someone mentioning him on a podcast and lots of love for Ross Martin on Twitter but it seems like this Jets regime has their own ideas on kickers and are looking for a young cheap option

Crazy! One of the best kickers and they had tons of cap space. I think I read somewhere 2018 had the most games ever in the NFL decided by 3 points or less.

Man i feel bad for Enunwa! Its his second neck injury, so you'd have to wonder would he be better off retiring. The Thomas trade makes a lot more sense now
Shepherd is no loss imo, he's been useless since he was drafted.
Adams was on the injury report too

notobtuse · 11-09-2019 8:05pm

Jets and Pats have hated each other going back to Belichick bolting NY for NE. I don’t think the two teams have made player trades since. Now Brown might be facing suspension at the Pats for rape. Did Gase pull one over on them in getting Thomas?

Prior to yesterday the Jets were the only team Belichick hadn't traded with it

I listen to the Patriots podcast (they cover everything (live from training camp etc) and they never had him definitely in the final roster, was always a cut candidate. The signs from the first game was that he wasn’t missed.
Remains to be seen how he plays and his recovery from injury. A 6th round pick is nothing if he stays healthy and has a 1k yard season.

phatkev · 12-09-2019 3:56pm

Darnold is out for the next few weeks with mono, what the actual fcuk? Season seems doomed before its even really started!

Igotadose · 12-09-2019 5:26pm

Le'Veon Bell going for an MRI on his shoulder.

Wow. Just. Wow.

corner back 2 · 12-09-2019 6:44pm

Reading about mono it is the same as glandular fever. Apparently the spleen gets enlarged and any hit to the body could rupture it. It would be a surprise it he back before week 6. I remember reading that Novak Djokovic had it and it took him a long time to get back to the energy levels needed to play tennis at a high level.

Had the kissers disease myself when I was 17, missed school between mocks and orals in leaving cert. Wasnt starting in the NFL at the time though! He could be out for half the season.

Apparently he's lost a lot of weight in a very sort space of time as well

Trevor isint the worst backup to have tbh. Don't see the Jets trading for an interim starter.
