JiFtheOracle Posted May 15, 2017 Share Posted May 15, 2017 Johnny Manziel was 57%, 7 and 5 w/ 230 yards rushing in 2 fewer games on the year. McCown had 13 years in the league under his belt too. Sign Manziel? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think a "respectable" QB that can get you a top 3 pick actually sells at a premium. I can't tell if you are being facetious or not, but the data speaks for itself. He can put up halfway decent stats, be a respected leader and lose almost all of his games. That is very valuable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thadude Posted May 16, 2017 Share Posted May 16, 2017 McCown was facing a soft schedule like our Ryan Fitzpatrick was. Difference was Fitz was able to win cupcake games and McClown just McClown'd it up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jetspenguin Posted May 16, 2017 Share Posted May 16, 2017 Mccown is finally going to do something he wasnt able to do in clevelend or tampa....WIN...I dont mean win a lot but because it's the jets he will win at least 5 games or win 3 and one of the other guys win scrape in another 1 or 2.....just when we need a 1 win season he will fail us....every time in the last 47 years there was a REAL opportunity to get the number 1 pick when there was a qb available this team somehow manages to do just enough to drop 2 picks out of contention. I'm not an advocate for tanking but if we are gonna lose some games lose enough to make a difference dammit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JetFaninMI Posted May 16, 2017 Share Posted May 16, 2017 I don't have the words to even justify a comment on this subject. Lets just say if we are reduced to touting the overall sh*tty play of McCown I think a top 3 pick is in sight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nicg4360 Posted May 16, 2017 Share Posted May 16, 2017 That could be the reason they paid him so much money. I guess you have to pay a premium to get the guy who has such a good track record of getting teams top picks in the draft. It's a joke when I see comments that he will play because Bowles thinks he gives us best chance to win. Really? Even Mac knows numbers can mean something and 2 wins in 3 years means alot. If McCown starts it's to play "competently incompetent" football to secure the top pick in '18. There is no other reason. No matter how good he looks in TC...in Cleveland he won the starting job and in Tampa yet he succeeded both years to secure top pics in the draft. For everyone who wants to tank you have your saviour Josh McCown. Sent from my Moto Z using JetNation.com mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoJoTownsell1 Posted May 16, 2017 Share Posted May 16, 2017 A team that thought they could contend with their roster would have gone out and gotten Cutler/Kap/just about anyone else to compete. Getting Mccown was simply to make the tank look more respectable. With our luck he will play great and we will go 8-8 on the way to ten more years of average/below average QB play. The funny part is that some of you would prefer 8-8 to 2-14... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So what? This team isn't winning the super bowl with McCown. Let's see what hack / petty can do and then draft another rookie with our top 3 pick next year.

bostonmajet Posted May 16, 2017 Share Posted May 16, 2017 There can be NO good from McCown playing. Either Petty or Hack win the job outright and play well, or we need to draft a QB next year. There is no way we are winning anything this year; any game the McCown plays in is bad as it means that Hack and Petty either are not good or they are hurt. Either way, we get nothing by McCown playing. We would be better off signing PS QBs to see what they have. In the end, either Hack or Petty is our guy, or we are drafting a QB next year to be the guy. The time of a 'competative rebuild' is over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
