His Achille's was absolutely a concern, but he was averaging 4+ yards a carry and was head and shoulders better than Hasty or anyone else not named ETN.
Hasty had a great TD catch against the Ravens. And I love that play!
But Robinson had great runs against the Redskins, Chargers, and the Colts. Not to mention was pretty good against the Giants before we shut him down.
No, don't disrespect Robinson like that. Hastey has made one play in and been effective in 1 game. Robinson, when a jaguar, was dangerous and effective on several plays in several seasons. You can't compare the 2.
How the Jet's squander Robinson is thier business. But when he's been here, he was always money. Hastey? He had 1 game. And nothing more, so far.
his stats were trending downward, a sign that something was up
- maybe the foot was not yet ready for the wear and tear of workload from week to week
- maybe ETN was supplanting him on the roster
- maybe the team wanted to move more toward speed and agility than straight-line power
- maybe Jrob got caught wearing a clown mask last offseason
The Jets were able to run before he got there, with Hall gradually increasing workload and hitting stats similar to early season JRob, so you can't fault their team for his lack of production. It has to be something else.
JRob was great for a year or two with us, and that's awesome. But outside of that one 50- yard carry, he hasn't done much this season for either team he's suited up for. Questioning whether or not he's done is not a matter of disrespect, it's a matter of his current ability. History don't mean much, @just ask Russ@
I already addressed everything you originally said and now you're just repeating yourself. So if that's the case, let's agree to disagree and move on.
Here was my discussion to you that you have ignored....
- Robinson was averaging 4.3 yards per carry THIS YEAR. Hasty has been trash besides that one TD.
- Robinson carried our running game throughout September. Go check our record in September.
- ETN has become a fumble machine. Wouldn't it be nice to have a vet RB that could teach him a thing or two?
If you don't want to address these points, cool. But I just don't have the patience to read you constantly ignoring the conversation to repeat the same things I've already addressed.
If you think that trading Robinson was a good move... OK. But the facts of this season kinda make that decision look terrible. ETN has a case of the dropsies. Hasty is nowhere near as good as Robinson. Snoop is trash. And we had to go dumpster dive for a back RB that hasn't even played since we picked him up 2 weeks ago.
So with all that said... Robinson, who has been more effective than Hasty or Snoop, was traded for a 5th round pick. Kinda seems like we'd be better off right now with Robinson than a future 5th that will probably not mean squat for us.
