1. Is Bell the second coming of Barry Sanders? If not, he's not helping this team. 2. He had that the past few years. The record speaks for itself. 3. "Asking" fish to walk is not a recipe to make a fish walk. 4. Bowles takes a lot of chances already - as in, the "empty the middle of the field and blitz" kind of chances. Stafford capitalized accordingly in week 1. But then, his defense is fucked either way so why the hell not?
1) no but he's as close as we have in modern day NFL and anytime you can add talent and playmakers it helps 2) jets D has been top 10 every year under bowles as a HC that deserves some credit. even with skrine and roberts as our starting CBs which is gross
What exactly is the point of fixing this and finishing 7-9 with a middle of the road draft pick in '19? One good thing about the Jets continuing with Darnold is that it ultimately means getting a higher draft picks (no 2nd rounder, though). Now, what they do with those picks is a whole other story...
If you're looking for "pie in the sky" remedies to change the mindset of Todd Bowles you might as well look for him to be abducted by aliens.
quote from Leonard Williams "I would tell people that Todd Bowles is definitely the right guy," Williams said. "You know, I feel like we've definitely been building in the right direction. What I love most is guys' attitudes on the team - everyone wants to play for one another and that says a lot. Everyone is locked in. Even though we've taken some Ls, everyone is still locked in and bought into the system and that's what I love about the team and the direction that we're taking right now." "I think people are too quick to give up on coaches or give up on an organization instead of allowing them to build when it takes time," Williams said. hmm funny exactly what i've been saying
I can't say that I blame him for feeling that way. A totally new regime may not be good for his bottom line.
It's more than likely that a new Jets coach especially a proven one let's say Jim Harbaugh wouldn't blow smoke up his butt by telling him how awesome he is even when he has 0 stats in a game despite playing in 85% of the snaps.
i honestly can't believe how out of touch fans on a forum can be. go ahead and spout nonsense because your mad we are 1-3 i'm done with this convo. You can't discuss football with emotional fans with no sense of being rational.
This doesn't mean Todd Bowles is doing a good job. Not at all. This just shows that Leo knows what to keep behind the doors and what to let out. Unlike that moron Lee. I think I like Leonard Williams. Maybe his stats aren't showing up, but I tend to believe that's the fault of the coach and not the kid. I would absolutely hate anyone who throws his teammates and coaching staff under the bus in public, regardless of the situation. That was one of the reasons I almost always despised Peyton Manning of the Colts days.
