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.

      if  ANYONE actually goes & looks at the FACTS on rookie Qb's after 2 full seasons as a starter in the NFL & they are still well below average do they rarely ever actually become top tier Qb's & instead most likely either do not recieve a second contract & or become life long backups...just saying

      So he became GM and decided not to address the weakness in the QB room following one of the worst rookie QB performances in NFL history?  There were options last season other than signing Dalton to a 2 year deal. Brissett and Jones by a wide margin, both of whom outplayed Bryce, Wilson, Winston, hell even Rivers off the couch was more exciting at the QB position. The time to address the failure in the QB room was last year but instead people on the Huddle cheered when we brought Dalton back then cheered when we were able to get anything for him after they finally realized he was washed up like a few of had been saying all along and got poo'd for even mentioning.  This year, the options were more limited obviously, especially since we lost Icky. It changed the dynamic of our draft. I think we were stuck this year keeping Bryce, but i still think giving him a 5th year option for what has amounted to replacement worthy performance was the wrong move. Why guarantee 25m if you're planning to replace him? You think he's going to want to be a bridge QB? Hell no. He's going to want out and we'll end up cutting him if he has another lackluster season because no one is trading for him with that price tag.  Were there better options as far as production available. A couple. Were there guys available with more physical tools than Bryce, Pickett or Grier, you damn well better believe there were. I've been saying all along, you always keep looking for your 1b. Bryce has yet to prove he can be a starter. Keep looking for someone who may. Put competition in camp. Let the best QB lead the team. Stop settling for less than mediocre.
