Sperm Edwards Posted September 7, 2014 Share Posted September 7, 2014 That's the most important thing. His throws look great. Great ball placement, decisions. He was a little reckless running the ball, though. That's a lot easier to fix than someone whose throws are all over the place. Having refs and receivers undo another 100+ would-be yards (not to mention a TD) didn't help his numbers any, and he still finished with decent numbers even with all that. He's a young QB and made mistakes that a young QB makes, in his first action of the season. I think he'll have an ok season: couple of great games, couple of stinkers, and the balance a little above or a little below average; an ok season. But he can throw and he can be dangerous with his legs as well. He's still putting it together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Better2bgreenthanblue Posted September 7, 2014 Share Posted September 7, 2014 I thought Geno was ok today. Made some boneheaded young player mistakes but also did enough to win, get a 98 QB rating. Kudos to the Oline. Geno looks like a lower mid pack QB on the ascent. Our running game and defense will keep us in most games. Anyone who can't see that Geno has vastly improved isn't a jets fan IMO. I believe the team I saw today is better than last years team by a significant margin.

Jet Nut Posted September 7, 2014 Share Posted September 7, 2014 Geno is good not great the problem is when we have to score 30 how can we when we can't score against the raiders . If the Raiders D sucked you might have a point. They don't and the fumble wasn't a fumble,Salas should have caught the TD, penalties weren't on Geno.

The OL looked better than it was because Smith made it look so effortless to avoid pressure when one guy broke through the protection. Happened a bunch of times today.

JetFreak89 Posted September 7, 2014 Share Posted September 7, 2014 The OL looked better than it was because Smith made it look so effortless to avoid pressure when one guy broke through the protection. Happened a bunch of times today. Absolutely. Geno had to have saved at least 4 sacks. The problem becomes when he thinks he can get out of EVERY sack and ends up running backwards and out of FG range. Needs to learn when he can and can't take those risks.

BallinPB Posted September 7, 2014 Share Posted September 7, 2014 The OL looked better than it was because Smith made it look so effortless to avoid pressure when one guy broke through the protection. Happened a bunch of times today. I liked what Geno did with his legs today too. Showing more confidence with just tucking the ball and running with it. Obviously the fumble was the one dark spot.

CaliforniaJet Posted September 7, 2014 Share Posted September 7, 2014 Two things that pissed me off and cannot keep happening. One, the fumble by the goal line, that crap cannot happen. Second, the sack he took that took us out of field goal range. Its fine to take a sack there, but losing 10-15 yards is not acceptable. Besides that I think he had a good game.

Again, I think some of this is Vick's influence, especially the way Geno used to or does idolize his game. On the other hand, it's his first game of the season and he's just a young, inexperienced QB. Overall I thought he looked good. Clearly not perfect, but my #1 concern is the throwing accuracy (especially considering he didn't do nothing but just dink & dunk all game long).

Sperm Edwards Posted September 7, 2014 Share Posted September 7, 2014 Also it's subtle, but when he runs left, along the sideline, he doesn't switch hands to put the ball in his left hand/arm. Ball is supposed to be where no one can tackle/swat it away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know Vick is a mentor and all but dude is gonna get hurt. He needs to slide more. His accuracy was spot on today. That Cumberland pass was a little high but still catchable. Salas (who I do like) has to make that cathe for td. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
detectivekimble Posted September 7, 2014 Share Posted September 7, 2014 Geno is good not great the problem is when we have to score 30 how can we when we can't score against the raiders . It was nothing the Raiders did. The Jets had plenty of opportunities, but blew them. Salas dropped a TD pass, Vick missed Decker, Geno fumbled on the two yard line. Guys were getting open easily and moving the ball up and down the field at will. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
detectivekimble Posted September 7, 2014 Share Posted September 7, 2014 Also, I think Geno's escapability helps him and gets him in trouble. Early in the game, he escaped a few sacks, instead of just taking them. He might have thought he could do it again on that big loss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jetsjetsjetss Posted September 7, 2014 Share Posted September 7, 2014 idk if he looks like a franchise qb but he looks like a starter finally still the thing that seperates the pack is red zone offense and he struggles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here's the prob all u guys don't think penalties are a prob they had a ton in preseason it's going to happen all year . Oakland d is terriable ! I listen to this board and all I hear is how our probs aren't problems when they are . Next week the d will not play this well and the offense can't score there is the problem . We can't score on a constant basis that's how you win constantly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why the heck do you have two qb's on the field at the goal line and he calls a fake for Geno in the first place. What's the point of having Ivory, Johnson & Powell? The fumble was bad, however the playcall was the worst. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CTM Posted September 8, 2014 Share Posted September 8, 2014 He seems to be late on a lot of this throws still, he waits too long for them to be "open" ... that will be trouble against a better "D" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was so much angrier at that playcall, especially since Geno had been getting banged around already in the game. And having Vick line up in slot? My God. Precisely. When Geno got hit and fumbled it took him a minute to get up, I thought he was hurt. The play call was just the dumbest thing. They march down the field and they decide to get "cute" for two yards? They've named Geno the starter yet you have the need to play wildcat games, put Vick in when Geno is completing over 80% of his passes for what really? This play calling will cost of games against teams like the ones we will play from weeks 2-7. Shape up, stop the bullsh*t and commit to the fact that Geno is the Starter and keep Vick off the field unless we ACTUALLY need him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We haven't seen a Jets QB do that in like 7 years. Noticed this. He's scanning the field as opposed to locking in on one side or a particular receiver. Probably taking too long to do it but I'm glad to see the progression. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Short of wrapping him up, Decker didn't really have a chance. Still, it was a great play by Woodson and one Geno will watch over and over and hopefully learn from and not repeat too often.

stevegrunder Posted September 8, 2014 Share Posted September 8, 2014 Geno throws a nice pass. He is pretty accurate. He can extend a play with his feet, but it is not his first choice. He bounced back from some bad plays. He looks MUCH better than last year. = a lot of progress. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
