Savage69 Posted June 26, 2017 Share Posted June 26, 2017 Kenny the only QB in Jets history with a game of 400 passing yards?? That's BS Namath had 400+ so did Vinny and Todd.. Kenny did manage to do something the others didn't, never had a rushing td and never won a playoff game.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JOJOTOWNSELL Posted June 26, 2017 Share Posted June 26, 2017 one of these days the Jets are going to get a franchise QB and the Knicks are going to get a stud point guard........and I will promptly get hit by a truck and miss it all lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CanadaSteve Posted June 26, 2017 Share Posted June 26, 2017 Our top five in regular season wins = 233 Tom Brady Regular season wins = 183 If Brady keeps going, he could BE our top 5 combined. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not a lot of ppl know that nah, meaningless fantasy #s tell us all we need to know about QB play. the great Ken O'Brien was a PRO BOWLER, he made it throwing 10 TDs and 11 INts in that amazing 8-8 year in 1991. Obviously he's much better. 4 minutes ago, Savage69 said: I'll still take Joe's 496 passing yds and 6 td's and 1 pick over that and Joe did it on just 15 completions..

Mark Sanchez being a bad quarterback basically cost us a chance at a Super Bowl in 2009-10. With an above average signal caller we probably win one of those years.

Sanchez allowed pitt to run all over us in 2010 then couldn't get a stop late in a 1 score game? w/ similar talent, easier sched and no Brady around we couldn't even get to the playoffs w/ Favre a year earlier.
