Bell Released By Jets

[sonnyblack65]

I think there's some funny irony with Bell & Brown. Both badmouthed BigBen and now both are looking for a job. And they got nobody to blame for where they're at except themselves.

Bell to miami would make sense.
They are on their way up. Warm weather to ride his wet bike.
& they have been kinda loose with their money lately. Get signed before it drys up!

I think he signs with the Chiefs or Bills....

He ruled out the Bills. It's between the Dolphins and Chiefs now. Lets hope he goes to Miami, plus he would get more playing time in Miami

He signed a 1 year deal with Kansas City.

Does he get significant playing time right away in KC?

He could definitely play on 3rd down if he gets pass pro down.

Think he will get an opportunity to take either a lead role or share the load in the backfield? I can't imagine him being too happy if he is nothing more than a change of pace/3rd down guy

He will either tow the company line and win the SB, or he will pout and have to explain why he couldn't get shit done with the Chiefs.

I think it's pretty straightforward. He'll probably get more carries down the stretch than the typical 3rd down only back, but CEH is plenty good outside of pass-pro. Bell being a bigger dude might be nice for GL purposes too.

Significant? Probably not.

Is CEH benched on the goaline? Probably.

Bad move. That kills the confidence of the rook.

How? Every down backs doesn't exist in the NFL these days.

He's averaging a 100yds per game and if Bell comes in and does well and takes carries away, that could mess with the rooks head.

He was never going to start FT.....he was going to split carries with Williams who decided to sit out the season. Rotating them will keep them fresh and free of injuries.

Well it'll be good for him because as i said every down backs aren't really a thing and if Damian Williams was available then it would have been a 2 rb situation anyway

His head shouldn't matter.

Sharing the load will be good on his legs.

Back than yes but now it shows he can handle the FT load. Plus they're adding a head case to the roster.

I do agree that back than it would have been a 2RB combo but now he seems fine handling most of the FT load. I guess too me brining in a big name with a head case would kind of mess with his head. Time will tell and I could be way off on this.

Bell backing him up doesn't hurt. At all.

Especially when CEH may hit the "rookie wall." And Bell is a very good receiver out of the backfield and goal line runner.
