Bowles didnt think about benching Spencer Long according to his press conference. excuse me...long has been snapping the ball out of shotguh poorly all season. Now he is associating it with a real injury and Bates doesnt have the mental fortitude to take Darnold out of shotgun. What the hell is wrong with these people... Bates said afterwards that he's keeping Darnold is shotgun so he has more time to read the defense, because when QBs snap under center they are first watching the pass rush. With Long's snaps though, I'm pretty sure that time advantage was negligible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Long has been battling finger issue all the season. It won't heal properly. That is only the problem when you ask for a decent snap. Another problem he could not move well due to his bum knee. He has been dealing a various degree of injury during his NFL career. He seemingly can't stay healthy so it is very good chance that Jets will have to release him after the season. Bates should know better than that. No question about that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No adjustment could make players feel quitters no matter who are they. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colt45fool Posted November 5, 2018 Share Posted November 5, 2018 If long has issues snapping the ball in the formation a majority of our plays are coming from he shouldnt be playing center. Swap him to guard. Or bench him. It imploded this week and its been a sore subject for a while now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GangGreen420 Posted November 5, 2018 Share Posted November 5, 2018 Interesting Golden Tate was asked if the Jets should fire Bowles. He said they should fire Bates and included a trash can emoji. I think Bates coached Tate when he was a rookie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A name I have seen recently is Iowa state's coach Matt Campbell. I have done some research on him, I wouldn't mind it if he was our new coach.
