Juju and Conner?

[Coryea]

Bell isn't coming back here, he wouldn't want to, and he threw guys under the bus, lied to his teammates on the way out too.
I can't see the Jets cutting him, that would be a pile of dead money, and we can't afford to trade for him.
DeAngelo Williams and James Conner (when he was healthy) put up numbers on par and in some cases better than Bell.

One of the dudes at the PG said on his chat today that JuJu will miss this week and possibly next week. Still have no clue what he did to his knee to need to miss 4 weeks especially since he left the field with no apparent knee issue or limp unless I missed it. He could have had arthroscopic surgery and recovered in that time.

Rewatch the play where he got earholed. He hurt his knee on that same play. Probably had a scope done to it.

So I still haven’t gotten an answer to the “what the hell did Juju actually do to his knee/what is the actual injury question? I’ve heard “knee contusion” which I’ve never heard of taking over a month to heal...

Don't hold your breath waiting for it. Teams give out minimum information on injuries, which is appropriate in my opinion.

Connor is missed more than many think. He is a duel threat, running and catching passes so defenses have to be ready.
Snell is mainly a runner and Samuels mainly a pass catcher, so defenses have it easier.

Exactly... he is a good dual threat guy

If i was taking a stab in the dark, I’d say it was a pre-existing issue that they just decided to let heal up when he had the concussion and was going to miss time anyhow

I read an article that the Jets aren't happy w/ Lev Bell - probable offload this off season.

It would be news if they WERE happy with him. He’s don’t nothing in New York.

In all fairness, the Jets OL is beyond awful.

B Powell had a decent game for the Jets yesterday. Bell didn’t play. Is he hurt?

 

[Spike]

Injury report was Bell had illness, didn't play

He was sick of them running his wheels off on a losing team, lol

 

[Cras108er]

Bell has been terrible running the ball this year, for whatever reason. I haven't watched him play at all but I still don't think he's cracked 70 yards rushing in any game this year. That's terrible.

That was pretty predictable. The line has to be able to hold the blocks for his style of running. He left thinking he was all works, without ever acknowledging that having Ben, AB, and one of the best lines in football all contributed to his success.

Word on the street is both JuJu and Conner will be back for Sunday night

All hands on deck!

Adding two #1 skill players to this anemic offense will be a huge boost. Anything that can help us move the ball, eat up more clock and score more points makes our defense that much more dangerous. Why our defense? Because that is the unit that will take this team as far as we can get. The offense keeping them off the field as much as possible keeps them fresh.

Makes sense to me, we need to keep getting big plays from both sides
