Geno won 8 games his rookie season, it took Fitz 11 years to reach that feat. Yeah, Geno has been mentioned positively in TC, but so has Fitz. You say that Geno got better in December, basically after elimination, well Fitz only got better one time in December, even went undefeated...but then fell off a cliff on January 3rd of this year. And besides this year, Fitz historically never got better in December because he was either hurt by then, benched or just losing. Fitz have made dumb decisions, just turn on that week 17 game in the 4th quarter and tell me if Fitz fell way below his potential when the "pressure was on". You'd love to be wrong about Geno but you're not holding your breath. I can respect that, but the guy in your avatar has done practically the same thing for 11 years. If you believe Fitz is the standard by which Geno should be judged and you think Fitz sucks then you've already lost whatever argument you're trying to make. Fitz is only a good metric if the question is where to go to get a great undergrad degree. Geno's missteps can be judged all on their own. In addition to the clock situation you can add in running out of his own endzone, fumbling the ball trying to pass the ball behind his back, the constant running backwards to avoid sacks, the whole $600 situation, all his terrible interceptions and general lack of situational awareness.

Rangers9 Posted May 17, 2016 Share Posted May 17, 2016 This is positive news. Even though I'm for bringing Fitz back if Geno is capable of playing at a higher level and can handle this offense then great news for the Jets. But we'll see what happens on the field not just in practice or skull sessions. The guy has 29 starts under his belt and it's not unfair to evaluate him on that. Plus Gailey was also positive on Devin Smith and we did not see that translate on the field. Again this is not an experimental season we are supposed to be contenders. Maybe Gailey's into developing players but not in crunch time. During the summer and that's it. Starting in Sept we have to put our best 11 on the field.

True, but if we've learned anything at all from following the Geno lovers this season, it's that wins and losses fall 100% on one player and one player only...the quarterback. No running game? Doesn't matter. Defense didn't show up? Doesn't matter. Interception or fumble because QB was hit as he thew when an O-lineman missed a block? Meaningless. All that ever matters in every loss is the quarterback, that's it. So the extrapolated 0-16 for Geno pretty much tells us what we have in him, right?

And its never anything living, and its always in a remote place, and since this earth is allegedly billions of years old and evolution has been happening over millions of years then these bones (and living hobbits...since we came from monkeys) should be all over the damn place....like the way monkeys and humans are.

Me neither, but I'd feel a lot better about his performance against Oakland if it wasn't in a blowout loss with an easy dropped pick-6 by an Oakland CB and Geno running scared/out of bounds under pressure taking a loss for yards just like he did in seasons 1 and 2.

I'd feel alot better once Geno Smith is able to get some reps with the 1's as well has having a preseason and being able to start the season off with the starters so he'll have that chemistry going into a week 8 Raiders game. Not coming in cold like that. I also want guys like Charone Peake and Devins Smith to be able to develop and be useful as well. No reason to have deep threats with a QB that cant throw the ball properly past 20 yards. There's pro's and cons with both quarterbacks. However, holding Geno to a raiders game that he didnt start, came in cold, had no reps and had zero chemistry in my eyes is just ignoring the facts. IMO, people should be more concerned about a guy who basically folded under pressure in week 17 literally throwing 3 ints in a row with the playoffs on the line. to me thats worse than a guy coming in cold and having a guy drop an INT.

This is because while I do want one of the kids to take his job, it doesn't mean one of them will. You gotta' pay him to be what he is right now...the starting QB who led them to the 11th ranked scoring offense in the NFL last season. If he were 24 years old he'd be worth $20 mil per season, but he's 34 so he gets nowhere near that much. If he gets $11 million and one of the kids picks up enough from him to take over as the starter at some point, are any of us really going to care about the $11 million Fitz got when there's a good chance we'll finally have a quality young QB? Me personally, with all the money they have set to come off the books, wouldn't care much at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Geno continues to play as he has, he should be dumped after camp. If Petty and Hack need more time, the Jets can afford to give it to them while Fitz is plenty good to win games if the defense plays up to it's full potential and doesn't lose games to the likes of TJ Yates and Sam Bradford.

Yes, but the difference between Fitz and Geno is that Fitz generally throws more TD's than he commits turnovers. Put points on the board (11th scoring offense in the NFL) and I can live with turnovers. Finish 29th in scoring while averaging over 20 turnovers a year...that's bad QB play IMO. I've never ignored Fitz's past, but I look at it fairly and that upsets a lot of people. I did an article on him after he was acquired to show that he's a decent QB who puts the ball in the end zone who has played on some horrible teams. He was exactly what I expected him to be which was a HUGE upgrade from Sanchez and Geno. I just hope it's not too late to trade for Glennon.
