Spoot-Face Posted August 12, 2015 Share Posted August 12, 2015 This is the point I just heard being made on ESPN radio...no way this happens in a locker room where a QB is a respected leader, it just doesn't happen. IK obvioulsy felt like this was an okay thing to do and I'm not hearing the backlash I expected to out of the locker room. I don't think that necessarily means that IK thought it was an okay thing to do. The guy seemingly has rage control issues, and when someone like that is in a moment of rage, they don't think, they just act. The consequence, or whether something is right, doesn't matter. With that being said, I too, am surprised that there isn't more outrage from the players. So perhaps there is an unfavorable view of Geno in the locker room.

NJ Posted August 12, 2015 Share Posted August 12, 2015 What the hell is a stroke? Honest question I've never seen the word used that way lol It's probably a midwestern term - Urban Dictionary lists it as: stroke the action of placing your index finger and thumb around the penis about halfway along the shaft and moving the skin up and down to produce a pleasureable sensation leading ultimately to orgasm & ejaculation Pretty dead on in describing my feelings of Geno Smith. An east coast synonym would probably be "jerk-off" - that works too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, that's what stumps me. It almost seems as if the general consensus is: "IK is a hot-head and was totally out of line, but..." It's the "but" part that I don't like. And just when I was hearing that Geno seemed to have a good command over the huddle this training camp. I almost thought that he could be a leader. Shame on me, I guess.

JetFaninMI Posted August 12, 2015 Share Posted August 12, 2015 Well were learning some new terms here tonite folks. Stroke, Douche. Although Douche we had back in the day his real name was bruce coslett. I like the way Bowles just was like what are you gonna do? Makes Me believe He was not that upset to lose Geno. I am debating buying a Jersey with this kids name on it. He might have done more for this team than Geno might ever have. ' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AFJF Posted August 12, 2015 Author Share Posted August 12, 2015 I listened to Bowles press conference and he sounds as calm as a fan he is not panicking at all. He sounds like a very good HC. I am amazed that folks somehow are making this an issue about Bowles. He can do the job we have to give this man a chance. And despite what people think out here Bowles is not playing he said he doesn't care who you are and I believe him. I don't think HC's have as much control over adult males who attack other adult males for a living...but I know, it's all on the HC when somebody misbehaves because it's easy to oversee and dictate the actions of 53 wealthy young men who have rarely heard the word "no" in their lives. This isn't on Bowles at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BowlesMovement Posted August 12, 2015 Share Posted August 12, 2015 The quotes pretty much confirm my feelings on Geno, in no way did he deserve what happened to him in any way shape or form, it sucks, BUT, he is not seen as a leader in that locker room by anyone. Geno has the physical skills to play QB in the NFL, but to date he has not shown he has the mental ability, nor leadership ability to be a starting NFL QB.

Geno has the physical skills to play QB in the NFL, but to date he has not shown he has the mental ability, nor leadership ability to be a starting NFL QB. Agreed. When I first heard the story my instinct was to blame IK totally but after hearing more it is clear that Geno has shown, once again, that he is not a leader nor is he smart enough to lead an NFL team. If you owe a man money, just pay your debt. Even if you don't think you owe the man the money, just pay the dude 600 dollars and be done with it. Now your season/career may be over.

If he had overseen Sheldon's drag racing while high with a kid in the car at 143 MPH followed by the QB getting knocked out, it would be relentless. But it's not, so this time it's on the players. It's up to them to act like professionals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nycdan Posted August 12, 2015 Share Posted August 12, 2015 If, as it appears, Geno is still immature enough to not have veteran support in this situation, it's probably just as well this happened so the Jets can begin the process of moving on from him rather than waiting another season. Guy might have lots of raw talent but if he can't command respect and lead the team, what's the point? He'll just be another in a long line of arm-talented head-cases that suck the life out of a team for 3-4 years before the pattern is clear enough to move on from them. He might need to get cut and sign on as a backup somewhere to 'figure it out' and may eventually be a decent QB somewhere in the league, but I would be stunned if he came back this season and took snaps under center barring injuries to the guys ahead of him.

32EBoozer Posted August 12, 2015 Share Posted August 12, 2015 it goes both ways a respected leader doesn't owe the defense money and disrespect people by putting their finger in people's faces If Geno wants to gain respect in that locker room, he should pay IK and then talk to Bowles & MacDaddy and see about getting IK back on the team. Say it was all your fault for putting IK in that position and how he would hate to see a young man's career ruined by something that Geno could have diffused. That would go a long way in getting the vets on your side and enable the Jets to keep a promising young player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Integrity28 Posted August 12, 2015 Share Posted August 12, 2015 I agree but if it had happened under Rex it would have been.. IK wouldn't have been cut. Nobody would have been punished at all. The narrative would have been that Rex told him to fight with him to see if it lights a fire under his ass... and/or Rex hates QBs, he'd rather not have one at all.

This isn't a good guy, this is a guy that allegedly assaulted a police officer a couple of years back and had to be pepper sprayed. Now he does this. Inexcusable. Geno may be a moron but he didn't deserve to get his jaw broken and doesn't owe IK a thing. And if Bowles/Mccag allow IK back on the team they are morons as well. The next person IK will attack is a girlfriend/wife/waitress. Let some other team deal with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
