NYs Stepchild Posted October 25, 2016 Share Posted October 25, 2016 33 minutes ago, cant wait said: Has anybody heard if petty is practicing yet? He(Bowles) is comfortable with QB Bryce Petty playing, but Petty still needs more practice time after getting only two weeks of reps in following a month off with an injury. The coaching staff will decide by the end of the week who will serve as Fitzpatrick's backup, with Petty and rookie QB Christian Hackenberg being the two choices.

But if he gets to start at Cleveland, he's ending the day on IR. To paraphrase the internet, Fitz's Magic is actually voodoo. He really is. How many seasons has Fitz been a backup? How many games has he actually sat through on the bench? I'll bet they're close to equal. 2 games may be the longest he's ever waited for the starter to get hurt.

ChuckkieB Posted October 25, 2016 Share Posted October 25, 2016 Is it just me or does anyone else question why the hell we drafted Hackenberg in the 2nd round if he's not eve trusted to suit up as an emergency backup in week 7 of the season??? When is this franchise going to realize that you cannot swing and miss with day 1 and 2 draft picks every year and hope to pull the franchise out of perpetual mediocrity??

Which even with Fitz at QB we should be able to manage. Then over the bye week, throw Petty into the flames. No better way than over a bye week and facing NE. Are you insane? If we win the next 3 with Sxpatrick starting then there is no way he gets replaced till we're eliminated from the post season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's a good question, and I've been worried about it from the start. The only thing I've seen since it happened is that he had a 'bruised' shoulder with 'no structural damage'. Hopefully that's all it was, but I'll believe it when I see proof on the field and no further medical issues are revealed later. http://www.ganggreennation.com/2016/9/3/12781984/bryce-pettys-shoulder-has-no-structural-damage-jets-wont-put-him-on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike135 Posted October 25, 2016 Share Posted October 25, 2016 It's amazing how much of a cluster-phuck our QB situation is. It like having a Nascar team but your available engines are: 3 cylinder 1.2 liter engine (fitz) 7 liter V10 that overheats, breaks down and strips the transmission (Geno) Some new hybrid engine that performs great in virtual tests (Madden), but can't actually perform on the field. (Petty) A solid V8. But has been salvaged from an accident and may never run well again. (Hack) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hack is FAR from ready to play. I would have never drafted a player that needed so much work to get ready to play a game he has played since he was a child.

Adoni Beast Posted October 25, 2016 Share Posted October 25, 2016 As painful as its gonna be to see the bearded thief back behind center, Geno's injury just accelerated Petty's chances of starting. His practice reps will increase and before we know we will get to see if he's got something worth building on. If Geno was still in there and playing better than Fitz, they might have kept him in there the rest of the way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the chances of Fitz getting hurt are slim however if Petty is hurt, which it seems as though he is perhaps more than we know, they have to suit up a backup QB, barring they don't pick up anyone, so I would think Hack suits up.

He didn't get a lot of reps in camp as it was; played some in preseason then got hurt, and has only been throwing at all for a couple of weeks, again as 3rd stringer so very limited reps. Not a great recipe for putting him in on Sunday and expecting him to look sharp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ohio State NY Jets fan Posted October 25, 2016 Share Posted October 25, 2016 Who is getting the backup practice reps? should be an easy question to answer and it would tell us how bad the injury is (good explanation for not starting Petty vs Browns) Next good opportunity for Petty will be Colts on MNF (that defense might be worse then the Browns but "the Colts D is bad because they spent soo much on the QB" - Grigson proving that you need a team around that franchise QB if you can find one...

flgreen Posted October 25, 2016 Share Posted October 25, 2016 13SHARES SHARE TWEET EMAIL By: Neal Coolong | 19 hours ago Petty is ready By his own words, as quoted by New York Daily News’s Manish Mehta: “Shoot, I want game action,” Petty said about getting a chance to play at some point this season. “I think that’s what everybody in this locker room wants… is to get an opportunity. That’s all you can ask for in life in general, much less in this game. So, I definitely want an opportunity.” He’s right. It’s easy to understand that every player in the locker room wants to play and is waiting for the opportunity, but the team kept four quarterbacks — and an injured Petty — on their roster after the cut to 53 for a reason. It seems like Petty knows he’s close to truly competing for the starting position. POWERED BY GIANTMEDIA Petty is patient That, or he’s obsessive. Maybe both. He recently told Zach Shonbrun of the New York Times he waited exactly 1,786 daysbetween his last high school start and his first collegiate start at Baylor. His predecessor? Robert Griffin III, who, incidentally, also knows quite a bit about the frustration of injury. After that, it was Nick Florence — who’s claim to fame outside of Baylor appears to be the fact he has a Wikipedia page — who started over Petty. Petty is funny It’s tough not to love a player who knows how to burn trollish fans who take themselves, and the game, way too seriously. 11 Oct Bryce Petty ✔@b_petty14 Game of Thrones binge commence Follow ben @BenSteinberg3 @b_petty14 watch some film u bum 4:01 PM - 11 Oct 2016 Retweets likes Follow Bryce Petty ✔@b_petty14 Ah please momm just one episode.. https://twitter.com/bensteinberg3/status/785933362871566336 … 4:07 PM - 11 Oct 2016 · Morristown, NJ, United States 2424 Retweets 111111 likes Someone’s skin is kind of hot after that.

Never mind that Marcus Mariota, Melvin Gordon, Amari Cooper, Trevone Boykin, J.T. Barrett, Jameis Winston, Tevin Coleman, Dak Prescott and Scooby Wright III all had more votes than him. Hey, Smith didn’t get a vote his senior year. Neither did Fitzpatrick or Christian Hackenberg. Petty seems to get up early often This is what NFL draft analyst Mike Mayock said about Pettyleading into the draft in 2015: “Why do I say he’s the most natural thrower in this year’s draft? He’s just one of those guys that can wake up at six in the morning, grip it and rip it. He throws the ball beautifully. Very natural. That 11 to 20-yard inside route he throws as well as any quarterback in the draft.” And this, from Mehta: Petty’s work ethic is commendable. He is literally the first quarterback to arrive at the facility at 5:30 each morning, according to people other than Petty. It seems he shaved a half an hour off his time from college to the pros, so that can speak to his level of improvement as well. Overall, It would seem Fitzpatrick is the Jets’ quarterback for the foreseeable future, but Petty likely took a step forward in terms of practice reps. Although that comes at the expense of Smith, Petty has worked hard to be where he is and it doesn’t seem like he’s going to stop working. http://jetswire.usatoday.com/2016/10/24/6-things-to-know-about-jets-qb-bryce-petty/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
