He's certainly had a ton of anti-Namath and pro-Geno babble everywhere else! Somebody told me in another thread that Geno never threw 6 Interceptions in a game and Joe had done in a couple of times-so I was kinda being the dick that I have been all along about this subject and this particular scrub QB that amazingly enough, some are actually defending. Imagine defending a guy who threw 3 interceptions on 4 series? The 1st was a 3 and out-remember all of those 3 and outs? Remember all those quarters that the Jets WITH GENO UNDER CENTER didn't score? Remember losing 11 of 12 games? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flgreen Posted June 8, 2015 Share Posted June 8, 2015 Yankees fans boo Geno Smith, but he doesn’t say if he’s driving a Porsche Posted by Darin Gantt on June 8, 2015, 6:23 AM EDT Geno Smith didn’t have much to say Sunday. But the fans at Yankee Stadium did. According to Mitch Abramson of the New York Daily News, Smith replied with a terse “no comment” when asked about teammate Willie Colon’s remarks last week that Smith wasn’t ready for the starting job when it was handed to him. Asked if he felt additional pressure because of the remarks, Smith simply shook his head. “We bought the Porsche; we’ve given him the keys; he can’t crash it,” Colon said last week. “Bottom line, he can’t crash it. We need him to be on top of his game. We’re doing everything we can as an offensive line to make him comfortable back there.” Of course, the Jets fans in attendance must not have confidence in Smith’s ability to drive the Jets, as he was booed when he was shown on the scoreboard during the game.

Jetsfan80 Posted June 8, 2015 Share Posted June 8, 2015 If Derek Carr sucks than so does Geno. Carr's numbers came when throwing to the likes of Denarius Moore, James Jones, Andre Holmes and Mychal Rivera. They were both 2nd round picks so what's the use in debating it? Neither are probably franchise QB's, though Carr's 21 TD/12 INT ratio with that trash heap receiving corps suggests he isn't the worst QB in the league.
