[THE ILK]

"Rex, once Darnell Dockett sat on Mark's head and knocked him out of the game, you were forced to go to a Wildcat offense helmed by Jeremy Kerley. Why didn't you just activate Greg McElroy?"

"We considered it. We did. I talked with Tony and the offensive guys, and they thought he was ready for it. Greg said he was ready for it. But I said no. There was no way I was going to let that happen. I'm not just a coach, I'm a human being, you know? But Greg's done a lot of good things, and I really wanted him out there. But there was just no chance of that happening. I mean, in an emergency, could we have used him? Yeah, and I would have loved to. But I was never going to do that. I mean, if I had to, I would have. But I never would have, even if I had to."

A double-minded man is unstable in all his ways.

How much must McElroy suck?

I'm thinking golf balls thru a garden hose levels.

I'm not sure evaluating a player based on Rex's opinion of him is really advisable at this point.

i saw him at the Senior Bowl a couple years back and his arm strength was Chad-like.

Rex has to be busting balls. There's no way he doesn't activate McElroy if Tebow is out.. right?

That level of stupidity would be indefensible.

[bitonti]

Has nothing to do with health... it's politics.

Basically, the coaching staff has thrown this season away to spite the general manager and/or owner.

My guess is that behind closed doors, there is a big match of **** you going on. I get the impression that Rex won't move on past Sanchez because he swore he'd ride or die with him, and he thinks going back on his word matters to players (after he gets fired, lol)

Woody is probably clammoring for Tebow. Rex is basically burning a season, and potentially his career as a head coach to make the point to Woody that it's about winning.

ocham's razor Mark is better than Tebow who is better than Greg. Simplest answer.

Mark Sanchez is the Blossom Russo of the NFL.

Mark Sanchez isn't the Blossom of Blossom.

Wasn't Pennington's arm strength one of the main comparisons used to compare with Matt Ryan's when he came out (Matt Schaub being the other)? You would probably remember better than I would since you grade college prospects and clearly I don't. (I prefer to cowardly grade them in hindsight).

If - IF - he can accurately/adequately throw 15 yards without needing a rainbow arc to it then it'll do. So he can't throw a 15 yard out. I think we can deal with that for a little while. Sanchez can barely throw a 15 yard in (where it's supposed to end up).

as much as i like GMAC, it would be hilarious if rexey went in with just 1 QB , and if nacho got knocked out, the presser would be priceless

[shawn306]

So, in essence, Tebow was healthy enough last week but, with nothing at all changing, he is probably not active this weekend.

Makes no sense. Rex needs to go, sad to say.

Agree 100%...The Jets are in such dissaray right now that the whole Tannenbaum, Rex regime needs to be shown the door.

How can you trust anything this organization says right now-pathetic.
Mcelroy is so bad that we can not even dress him- come on

So......it'll be like every other Sunday.....

According to reports the Jets will deactivate quarterback Tim Tebow from Sunday’s game against the Arizona Cardinals due to fractured ribs.  This is quite the strange move considering Tebow was the only other active quarterback, besides Mark Sanchez, during the Thanksgiving night loss to the New England Patriots while suffering from the same injury.

The Jets are still non committal if third string quarterback Greg McElroy will be activate for the Cardinals game in Tebow’s place:

Tim Tebow officially listed as questionable on Sunday for #Jets. Am told they have not made a decision on McElroy yet, either. #nyj
