JetNation Posted November 28, 2016 Share Posted November 28, 2016 By Glenn Naughton Believe it or not Jets fans, with their season even more over than it was 24 hours ago, head coach Todd Bowles is sticking with Ryan Fitzpatrick. Bowles says they're getting looks at Petty every day (practice/meetings). Says he'll get his chance…just not vs. Colts. #NYJ — Chris Lopresti (@CLoprestiWFAN) November 28, 2016 Despite having just five games left to evaluate youngsters Bryce Petty and Christian Hackenberg, Fitzpatrick, who will no longer be a Jet after season’s end, will get the nod to lead the Jets offense at MetLife Stadium next week on Monday night football when the Jets face the Colts.

Joe W. Namath Posted November 28, 2016 Share Posted November 28, 2016 Yes!!! More fitz equals more losses. If they let petty actually throw the ball they might win a game or 2 which will ruin our draft position. Starting fitz is a guaranteed loss.

CrazyCarl40 Posted November 28, 2016 Share Posted November 28, 2016 No debate means Petty is probably not the goods. Especially if Macc is trying to set this team up for the future. I don't get it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drsamuel84 Posted November 28, 2016 Share Posted November 28, 2016 I'm starting to really think Petty just doesn't have it (which is obvious) but also that they may just bypass him altogether and go right to Hack at the end of year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It doesn't make any sense. Whether or not they think Petty has 'it', they spent a 4th round pick and have used a roster spot to carry him this far. Fitz is gone in 2017. Give Petty a few games - with no leash- and see what he can do. If he falls on his face, at least your suspicions are confirmed. But keeping him on the bench does nothing for this team in 2016 or 2017. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I said the same thing about a week ago. They seem to be making excuses every week why Petty can't play, and Bowles said about a month ago that Hack was pretty much even with Petty. I agree with you, I think Hack gets 3-4 starts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beerfish Posted November 28, 2016 Share Posted November 28, 2016 They can't possibly have any clue if Petty can play or not, you NEVER learn about a guy until he gets his shot as a starter for at least a limited amount of time. Hell half the great QB's in this league were found because they got a true shot due to injury not because they looked so damn good in practice.

I don't disagree with 8 losses they have nothing to lose but the excuse seems to be he's not ready yet and with a "Prime Time" game they don't want to put someone out there who they think is going to embarrass them. I think the thought is Hack is close enough to Petty and with him being a 2nd rounder if they're close to being equal you have to believe Hack is going to get preference.

Dcat Posted November 28, 2016 Share Posted November 28, 2016 Bowles needs to be dismissed ASAP. He stinks. Thanks Woody. Next time try letting your GM pick his own head coach and have said head coach report to him... not to you... you dimwit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wait so at 3-8 the laughing stock of the NFL as we speak signing Ryan Fitzpatrick as the starting QB after no other team wanted him isn't enough of an embarrassment?

Do the 0-12 Browns mean anything to you? Nobody cares that the Jets are 3-8. That's what getting rid of Rex did. It took us from a laughingstock to nobody cares.

FidelioJet Posted November 28, 2016 Share Posted November 28, 2016 Petty is NOT the guy....Bowles and the front office already know this. He will not be on the roster next year so he's not going to start. He'll likely get a shot at the end of the year for a couple of games just to prove the coaches right...he'll suck and then he'll be cut. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or maybe it means that this coaching staff is coaching for their Jobs or for a future job and don't want to risk playing an inexperienced QB. So instead, they are rolling out Fitzfumble. This is a MNF game and they know people will be analyzing their performance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They had Fitz/Geno/Hack. Why carry Petty if you know he sucks? What was the benefit? It makes zero sense. The only reason to carry 4 Qbs is because you thought Petty and Hack could both emerge as a player. This is a coaching staff afraid to take a chance. Plain and simple. Fitz gives these guys the best chance at looking competent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
