JiF Posted December 27, 2012 Share Posted December 27, 2012 I'm calling shenanigans on this one actually. This seems like the easy answer, but it's probably because if Tebow were to go out and play remotely well, the backlash from the fans and media would be pretty, pretty, really bad. Agreed. Said it when they chose McElroy. They are avoiding that backlash at all costs. And rightfully so, IMO. If he wins, then they are committed to him next season and then what? Only thing it's missing is Tanny staying on cause Sanchez showed life Oh ****sake, you're so right. This is all going to happen. Sanchez lights it up. Everyone comes back to try again. ****ing Jets baby, ****ing Jets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This seems like the easy answer, but it's probably because if Tebow were to go out and play remotely well, the backlash from the fans and media would be pretty, pretty, really bad. I think it's a little of both. Tebow's clearly not on the team next year, so there's no sense in giving him a start when you can try to get Sanchez back on his feet.... but if Tebow went in and played well, Ryan would be roasted(and rightly so) for not making the switch much earlier. No one likes to be second guessed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CotcheryifyouCan Posted December 27, 2012 Share Posted December 27, 2012 Sanchez throws for 300 with 3 tds. Woody and Rex regain their faith in him, name him starter for 2013 and beyond. We get a worse draft pick. Tanny and Sparano somehow save their jobs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T0mShane Posted December 27, 2012 Share Posted December 27, 2012 Pretty gutty again. If the Bills were coming here, does anyone think Rex has the nuts to put Sanchez out there? No. McElroy's head would heal miraculously. Loser coach, loser franchise. Also, if they're bald-face lying about McElroy's concussion, that'll be the second time in a week that Rex has lied to his team with them knowing it. Devito was on WFAN and called the buzz about Tebow opting out of the Wildcat "the most disappointing thing [he's] heard this season," saying that Tebow would never, ever, ever, ever ask out the way Rex portrayed it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pac Posted December 27, 2012 Share Posted December 27, 2012 what's lost in this is how incredibly bad Tebow must look in practice. I don't buy the conspiracy crap. Rex isn't playing Tebow because he's scared he'll do well.. he's not playing him because he's scared he'll play like he does in practice.

Pac Posted December 27, 2012 Share Posted December 27, 2012 Oh yeah, that one more loss, totally makes the difference. The Jets lost their best player on both sides of the ball and were at least competitve vs the Pats and Texans.

Turning the ball over 5 times against the Tennessee Titans was the fault of Santonio Holmes and Darrelle Revis. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pedro55 Posted December 27, 2012 Share Posted December 27, 2012 (edited) what's lost in this is how incredibly bad Tebow must look in practice. I don't buy the conspiracy crap. Rex isn't playing Tebow because he's scared he'll do well.. he's not playing him because he's scared he'll play like he does in practice. I don't buy this at all because Tebow was the only backup for most of the season. So if he's that bad in practice and Rex has no faith in the kid at all, why not dress 3 QBs, just in case. With that logic, Greg wasn't even good enough to be active for 95 percent of the season, and yet he still started a game. My opinion is Woody wanted Tebow here (which scares me in that he might fight for Vick since it's all about PR), Rex and Tanny didn't, and Rex pretty much made sure Tebow looked bad or never played. It's like one of those "F - U" moments a kid shows to their parents or a employee shows to their bosses. Except in the end, only Rex looks like the idiot. Tebow isn't a starting QB in the NFL. He's a gimmic. He might have some sort of 'it' and leadership quality and he seems like a good kid, but at the end of the day, nobody is going to let him start at QB. I don't even think Jacksonville would. If you suck in practice and everybody thinks you suck as a QB, you'll never play. That's Tebow. He might have a knack for winning, if everything falls into place, but he just doesn't have a knack for being a QB. But saying all that, what is the point of starting Mark this last game? If he really really sucks or gets hurt(Dree Brees last game injury), the Jets can't trade him for dog poop. If he lights it up and they win big, Sanchez sticks around and people start demanding he get another chance. Nobody is going to think he's worth 8.5 Million around the NFL. Maybe thats what Rex is trying to do. Maybe he hopes he's still HC and hopes Sanchez is the QB. And if that's the case, Rex is dumber and has more man love for Sanchez than any of us thought. Which is scary. Edited December 27, 2012 by pedro55 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
