CornKobb 48 Posted September 17, 2017 why is he in there? give up ball. got a mcguire sighting too. yes i am a first year bilal powell owner. geez. wish i could upload the worst 15 yard penalty ever on forte getting tackled on a screen. he gave himself up and was slung around and got 15. any NEW YORK homers insight would be great. powell not in the game much at all.

TheGiantJets 18 Posted September 17, 2017 I don't even think Jets fans are watching this game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BobSanders_33 127 Posted September 17, 2017 NYJ ownership have no motivation to win or be competitive this year. Not that Powell would be any significant help. As a Powell owner your only hope is that they ride Forte to an injury. Any sort of split makes Powell's value 0. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fanfootballtn 33 Posted September 17, 2017 No way Forte gets through a full season without having hamstring problems Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SaintsInDome2006 128 Posted September 18, 2017 Forte's terrific, he's just stuck on a horrible team. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jimaveli 119 Posted September 18, 2017 I'm still saddened that Forte went from one shaky team to one that was even more broken. And he's for sure stuck there. It would be cool if some team with cap space and issues at rb would 'rescue' him. But he has no real burst anymore so it's not happening. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SpenceToons 70 Posted September 18, 2017 Matt Forte today... 9 rushes for 53 yds - almost a 6 YPC. 4 rec for 38 yds - almost 10 yds per rec. Not too shabby for an RB. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
datwaymon 8 Posted September 18, 2017 The Jets are a dumpster fire and Powell isn't even the best back on the team as Forte can still outperform him after years of abuse in Chicago. I'd dump him for just about anyone in a committee backfield that is on a team that can score and wants to win games. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jimaveli 119 Posted September 18, 2017 Right. It didn't smell right to me. When I saw that Powell was getting picked in the 4th or 5th round, I chuckled and knew that I wasn't drafting him. I'm a bit surprised that they basically don't use him so far, but tanking is tanking. Maybe he's just there to take over for the 2nd half once Forte is beat down again.
