    Not gonna lie, it's ruining my excitement a little bit. Maybe it will pass. He was the unquestioned star of preseason. As someone else said above, he was going to bring the ruckus at the edge, a key piece the Jets have been missing for forever. Hopefully others can step up and partially make up for this loss.

    That makes sense--I knew you weren't excusing the poor OL play because the pack are so good. lol

    Fukin Lawson injury SUCKS BALLS to say the least. F us.

    DL will still be a strength and I'm still excited about the switch back to a 4-3. I know Fatuk will step up this year. With him and Q and hopefully Marshall, the edge guys will have a lot of free space.

    Some things are just too good to be true for this shitty team. For that reason I actually expected this to happen.

    That’s a muscle injury. Happens with a lot of players. He came back in October. Wasn’t effective and that was that.

    Figures, its the Jets. Either one of two things happens: they have incompetent leadership, with predictable results. Or they have competent leadership (as I think they do right now), in which case they just have bad luck.

    Fu[ k Lawson going down hurts. Hoping for a fast recovery with no lingering effects.

    you said he was a bad pass blocker when he wasn’t last year. He was rated 2nd behind Wirfs. He had a 79 pass blocking grade by them, again clown takes.

    Showing his actual weight would refute it; all I see is a differing opinion.

    I would be shocked if Lawson is OK. Pop means you are fucked balls deep. And Achilles is even worse than ACL. This is looking terrible for him at the moment.

    It may be fine now but it's pretty clear that he showed up to camp overweight, which was alluded to by many people.

    I said his relative weakness is pass blocking, which is true. He is a better run blocker than pass blocker.

    Either way though, the discussion you're referencing was a comparison between Becton and Wirfs. Wirfs has better PFF grades and way better sacks per game allowed numbers.

    Good luck with that. This is an internet message board and no one in the history of the internet has ever admitted to being wrong on any forum. Maybe a slight exaggeration but it is highly unlikely anyone here will ever admit to being mistaken. The great thing about the anonymous internet is we are always right, we know more than everyone else, "they" are always wrong and it is perfectly ok to act in ways that one would never consider in real life.

    Lolol so let’s go with the guy who doesn’t even cover the team over numerous Jet beat writers who’ve been at camp and haven’t reported ANY weight issues. Not to mention Saleh said nothing about him having weight issues, no press about his weight since camp started. DJ just said there’s no issues there. Listen if you have some sort of vendetta against Becton then say so, but it’s weird coming on here and claiming he came to camp overweight and saying he sucks and is a bad pass blocker since college and last year when it’s not true.
