Couldn’t move the chains
The Jets offense couldn’t stay on the field in 2019, and Bell wasn’t helping the problem. He converted 56 first downs for the Jets between rushing and receiving after averaging 97.25 total first downs per season with Pittsburgh during his non-injured years.
First downs are crucial to any team’s offensive success, and the Jets simply couldn’t get it down this season. Bell can’t be blamed for it though, considering his total was a team-high for the Jets. We’ll attribute this stat almost exclusively to the Jets’ poor roster.
