Then I apologize. But still other than Gruden or Cowher, I dont see any other great candidates Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well hard to blame them for thinking Fitz could duplicate what he did last year. They talked up the weapons he has around him, the addition of Forte. You would think a similar season was in the cards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The others rebuilt value over time. The only coaches that fit that contingent now are Gruden and Cowher. And they are not leaving their jobs. Cowher? He only coached one team? Took him a long time to get his SB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if they didn't believe that to be the case, they aren't risking their jobs by losing without Fitzpatrick this year. What he does is pacify the wolves, and gives them job security for another year while they try to find an actual QB somewhere Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UnitedWhofans Posted September 26, 2016 Share Posted September 26, 2016 And to be fair, the Jets have the same record as Seattle, Washington, and Carolina. I dont think those teams are panicking.

They wanted a placeholder who could keep them from being a losing team. Not the same as a we're built to win a championship today team Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FlaJetsFan Posted September 26, 2016 Share Posted September 26, 2016 1 hour ago, joewilly12 said: We arent grooming any QB if we were we would be like other teams and insert a rookie God help us if Ryan Fitzpatrick is doing the grooming on or off the field Not to be snippy, but somehow the words "grooming" and "Fitzpatrick" don't seem to really go together, except maybe when our starting QB got married. That said, there are many fantastic things Fitzie can teach our current crop of bench-warming young guns. Here are the top 7: 1. How to fool defenses by changing your appearance to resemble that of a bona fide Super Bowl winner. 2. How to make ten of millions of dollars during your NFL career, while remaining a proven mediocrity at your position. As an added bonus, how to sucker an inexperienced GM into paying you 12 million dollars a season, where there is no competing demand whatsoever for your services elsewhere. 3. Why wearing civvies that look like they were salvaged from a1970s LL Bean catalog is just so perfect in the threads dept for a starting QB in the Big Apple. 4. Why having a rifle for an arm is way overrated in the NFL, despite all appearances to the contrary. 5. Why staring at your receivers like a manly man always intimidates defenses into cowering behind a series of meaningless interceptions. 6. Why Jeremiah Johnson is not only a great movie, but one that all wannabe NFL QBs should study endlessly. 7. Why sliding for that first down is for sissies, even if it means your team will probably lose you for part of the season. These are only some of the many excellent reasons why Fitz is not only a great athlete and team leader, but the perfect antidote to any grandiose thinking we Jets fans may have been harboring at the start of the 2016 season.
