This would be like Jetnation putting a mandate on keeping posts rationale.

The prosecution rests, your honor.

Not a very good answer to support your cause.

You continue to ignore the question, what qb did YOU want? Since I am not a mindreader, I don't know what other teams would have paid him. Silly question. You don't like him, we get it. As many million times s you say it, it does not make you right, though.

Oh

I know that this is difficult for you to comprehend here (based on your seeming inability to process what I what I have written here elsewhere), but Mcknown is a "bridge. The Jets knew they were drafting a qb when they signed him, and they need that could be that bridge to play until that qb is ready. The Jets thinking , and it is confirmed in league circles is that Mcknown, that he also serves a s terrific mentor Double win!!!! Name the qb that was available when the Jets made this move that you preferred. The money they are paying him is a short term deal, and it did not prohibit them from signing anyone else for other parts of the team. I am not sure what mentorship has to do with w/l records, or qb's in tha past 49 years. That seems like small-minded thinking that is just bitter over the past. That is not the way you run an organization. If you want to rant for the sake of ranting, have at it. Just ton't expect evryone to agree with your delusion.

@joewilly12 A mentor is someone that is able to relate the nuances and experiences that they have had in handling the jobs and responsibilities that an underling will have as they attempt to assume that position. They will share how they think about job responsibilities and provide advice. A little sad that I need to provide a definition to what I assume is a grown man on this site. Yes, all teams have qb coaches. From what I know, Jeremy Bates was never a qb in the league. It is never bad to have multiple mentors in any aspect. The more one can glean, the better. In that Mark Brunell was with teh Jets when Mark Sanchez was somewhat "successful", I guess I can consider that good. You would need to ask Mark. That said, Darnold is not Sanchez. And Fitzpatrick is not Brunell. So I am not sure what one has to do with the other,

Not sure what "mentoring" has to do with w-l records. That is a weird connection you are making there. The Jets had to have someone be a bridge qb on the roster, not sure whom you had in mind. And, it costs monty to play players. Weird, I know.

Would you not consider "mentoring" as being a coach type? Or, then what is your definition of mentoring? I didn't realize it was YOU that was paying his salary.

Has there ever been a HOF qb who then becomes a great qb coach?

There is no doubt that the Jets value players that bring chemistry and team leadership to the equation. Whether that manifests itself into a team that wins, still remains to be seen.

dbates got preemptively upset about something he thought would happen. It happens a lot here.

So, in summary, when PFF supports my own pre-conceived notion of what players are, PFF is good. When PFF does not support that, PFF is just plain wrong.

This year, and I assume others (after teams stopped volunteering), HBO had a choice of 6 teams. NFL teams, wisely, have tried to stay away from this circus.

The Browns did not ask to do Hard Knocks, they were selected by HBO and must comply
