I don't think this team will win a single game before week 8.

dumb...per jason there is $0 cap savings if he is cut so why not take a chance he can stay on the field this season..if not he's gone next yr..thank god you aren't a gm http://overthecap.com/salary-cap/new-york-jets/ Oh really???? BS. It would make much MORE sense to cut him and get a guy playing for the league minimum. You know, a guy that might be on the field when he's needed? So I guess common sense ( given Milliner's very illustrious injury history) is not your strong suit????

Well, sure..... but I know he won't.

YES. A tiny detail every Geno stroker conveniently forgets to mention when claiming Geno was winning the QB competition last season. Now they make excuses for the rodent, claiming that Geno doesn't have a fair chance in this TC. 100% grasping at straws...

God, you Geno lovers are predictable. BS excuses, 100% BS excuses. Geno rides the short bus and everyone knows it.

100% BUST and no other, better classification, no warm, fuzzy words to wrap around it. This guy is a freaking china doll. I want him gone ASAP.

Well, my buddy has been down there attending practice over the weekend, he says Hack looks like sh*t. The guy can't even complete a pass to save his life. If this is our franchise QB, god help us,

You'll get used to caps and Jets being ridiculed. BTW, if Geno Smith does not DESERVE to be ridiculed, then I don't know anyone who does...

Well, I should say the same to you. You see how easy that is? It seems to me you can preach, but you can't adhere to the same standard? It's called free speech, get over it.

LOL

As far as the season goes, The Jets have done some rather positive things recently, but nothing that is specifically going to make the Jets a better team in 2016. My prediction has been 6 wins all of the offseason, so that is what I am sticking with. I just cannot see this defense being able to compete with some of the top offenses we face this season. I also think specifically due to neglect of the OL, this offense will not be nearly as productive as they were last season. Overall, I see a much better Special Teams unit, a defense that will not be any better than they were last season, and an offense on it's way down. That given that our lineup of our 1st 7 opponents is nothing short of murder. So all in all, I do not see this team getting better, in fact I see the complete opposite

The Cincinnati Bengals in 2015 had a 12-4 record. They scored 26.2 points per game to make them the 7th ranked offense. Their defense allowed 17.4 points per game making them the second ranked defense in the league. I don't know what the Bengals Special teams were ranked last season, but I am certain they were better than the New York Jets. Meanwhile, the Jets defense, which is what this team hangs it's hat on, was ranked 9th in the league. So needless to say even our best unit was inferior to there's. The Cincinnati Bengals won 12 games while playing the 2nd hardest schedule based on winning percentage of their opponents. The Jets ranked 18th in schedule with their opponents combined win/loss total amounting to 125-131. The Jets managed to win 10 games against a very easy schedule. The Bengals beat 4 teams with a winning record last season, the Jets have beaten only one winning team on average over the last two seasons. They also happened to beat the Buffalo Bills, a team we have not beaten in two seasons now. Well, pardon me for asking, but what exactly are you looking at that makes you think the Jets will come out victorious?

Well, if you don't like it, don't read it. Otherwise, you'll just have to tolerate me, And BTW? I have never hated any player up until Geno. Geno, however, is the drop dead point for me. Maybe I'm a little quirky, but I do NOT like players that get into altercations with other players. The very action is the antithesis of NOT being a team player. He's a cancer.

Agreed

You obviously hate Fitz and every single one of your posts this offseason have left others with that impression.

Your missing one point here......He had a chance last season and he pissed it away. HE did it. The Jets did NOTHING to him other than to encourage him to play well. The fans did NOTHING to him other than to hope he could be a great QB that the fans so desperately want. You obviously think that getting into an altercation with a teammate is irrelevant and something that was out of his control I guess?? I wholeheartedly disagree. Being a QB in the NFL constitutes being a leader of men, whether you agree with it or not, it goes with the job description.So he had his chance and he failed. It's HIS fault and no one else's. The CS most likely feels the same way as they signed and named Fitz as the starter. And even then, stop sulking and making excuses for Geno. Geno will get his chance to play in practice and in preseason games and if he's as good as you claim he is, he will inevitably rise to the top. I personally say, FAT CHANCE. I am honestly trying to contain my laughter when you post stuff like this. Geno is NOTHING in comparison to Fitz.

Special Teams had EVERYTHING with why the Jets did not make the playoffs. The unit was nothing short of awful last season and by my count it cost the team TWO wins last season. Had we won those games, the Buffalo game would have been about getting the 3rd stringers some playing time. It would have been irrelevant. Everyone on this board knows you hate Fitzpatrick. Equally, everyone on this board knows I hate Geno. The decisions that the team made up until now have nothing to do with you or I. They made a decision whether you like it or not. Now, like you tried making the point to me a few days ago, are you going to root for the team or are not going to support the team because you didn't like the decisions they made?

Mac should be VERY relieved about signing Fitz. This article basically touches very mildly about the sh*t storm of criticism Mac would have fallen into if he gone with Geno. Honestly, there was no other way that this offseason would have ultimately been resolved. Mac signing Fitz aside from a truly GREAT QB, was a paper bull when you are dealing with the mafia. If they tell you something you should do and they are saying it kindly? Not only should you do it, you should run. I'm just very glad it didn't need to come down to that.

Well, that's a different conversation and really one I hope we never have....

Selecting a backup that has never taken an NFL snap happens all the time. It's common in the NFL. It is most common to select a backup that is a veteran when you have a youngster starting. But when your starter is going into his 12th season in the league, your backup can easily be a guy with zero NFL in game experience.

Is it possible this ST's unit could go from famine to feast in only one season? Besides kicker, this team was missing pieces in every single phase of special teams last season. It would really be a coup for Mac to land two special teams stand outs in the same offseason.

Did I say he'd be out of NY? Did I say he wouldn't be the backup this season?? Pull your head out of your back side and READ.........

I agree, but it is also NOT necessarily the right thing to do for the welfare/competitiveness of the team. I hate Geno. I want nothing more than to see him off the team. I think he's a creep that rubs his teammates the wrong way. But as of this particular moment, he is the best QB on the roster not named Ryan Fitzpatrick. So really the CS needs to see what Petty is made of. Because if they can justify Petty becoming the number 2 based on his play on the field. then the easiest decision would also be the fair one.

No. I am not absolutely sure he'll be out of the league. What I claim to know is specifically in reference to the Jets and that is the following...... Geno Smith blew all his chances with NYJ, he does NOT deserve any more opportunities and that is fair. He started for two seasons and based on his poor play they signed Fitz to give Geno competition. Geno promptly blew that chance also being a stupid a$$ with his teammates. That's on him 100%. And IMO based on the seriousness of the offense, he is all done getting chances. Now, the Jets have a log jam at QB and they have some very serious roster questions to answer. I am CERTAIN this is the very last season Geno will be in town. Either he gets cut during this TC or at the end of the season, either way he's out of NY. I do not know if Geno will be given another opportunity from another team, but I really don't care either. That's another teams decision and I am not a fan of any other team besides the NYJ.
