Should Mangini start Ball vs. Bills?

260-270 pounds is extremely undersized to play in a 3-4.

Ball is best suited in a rotation, which he is in, giving rests to the starters, etc...

If Ball plays 25 snaps in a game, he will get overpowered most of the time, and couldn't hold up playing that many snaps. It shouldn't even be a question much less a debate...Ball is a backup.

 

I have managed to miss Ball playing NT somehow, from what I've seen Rashad Moore has been the best NT we have. I pray every night that Robertson doesn't start at NT anymore.

 

Yeh I am one that wants and really wanted D-Rob to succeed but I just do not see it happening, he is looking very out of position and will soon me gone from the Jets

 

It really does need to be Moore starting for us.

 

Let's not forget CJ Mosely. I think (if he ever plays) he can be quite effective.

 

you're drunk, yes i agree.

 

I would be in favor of rotating Kimo and Ball at DE and Robertson and Moore at NT. Preferably Ball and Robertson in passing situations and Kimo and Moore on running downs.

 

I think, for the most part, Mangini is already doing this.

 

First off whoever said Ball weighs 260 is off, he is about 280. Ball, I believe is actually pretty good as a 3-4 DE and also as a 4-3 DE. I believe that he may have what it takes to replace Kimo in a few years. I think the guy who started this thread was thinking about Rashad Moore. I believe that we should, in fact, start Moore at NT against Buffalo. If it were me, I'd be playing 4-3 against Buffalo with Ellis starting at one End spot and Ball and Thomas rotating at the other, Moore at NT, and Kimo Robertson Mosley, Rotating in at DT and NT.

 

i like dave ball...the few times he gets in he usually makes a play...i'm not sure about starting, but he should definatly be in there some, maybe on 1st downs
