ScarletKnight89 Posted October 15, 2017 Share Posted October 15, 2017 The excuse is the team is 3-3 and almost beat the defending SB champs today. They are going to put the best players out there to try and win games until they are out of it. Then you'll see Petty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My favorite is that our O-line is trash and Petty will just end up being hurt if we put him in the game, so let's just throw out the injury-prone grandpa.

No, it's a reminder that we fans have no control, and our opinions mean nothing. The future of Petty and Hack will be decided by the organization, not us, and seeing them play in games isn't required for them to make that determination. I too want to see them play. But they're not going to, not for some times yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bugg Posted October 15, 2017 Share Posted October 15, 2017 A sensible GM would be on the phone to the Packers and the Raiders looking to see what they might offer for McCown.

DMan77 Posted October 15, 2017 Share Posted October 15, 2017 "Best chance to win" is what we'll hear for another 2-3 weeks is my guess. If they lose those, you'll start seeing Petty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This * 1000 Of course, there's no way there will be a QB change while the Jets are still competing like this. Bowles will say "he gives us the best chance to win". Who cares about finding out about potential future QBs. Maybe this year Petty will play in week 17 and Hack will get some garbage time hand-offs.

I do feel like there's more urgency this year to figure out the QB situation than last year... My feelings probably don't mean much though, heh... But I could see them having more of a sense of the season in a few weeks and maybe think about the switch... I've always had my eye on the game against the Bucs before the bye, or the Panthers after the bye as the game where maybe someone comes in.

Yes I was being completely sarcastic. I think we all want to see either Petty or Hack in there. Personally I want to see Hack but would be fine with giving Petty a shot first. Basically anything other than FitzClown would be fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saul Goodman Posted October 15, 2017 Share Posted October 15, 2017 I like Petty but he's a career backup. There's no reason to play him until we are mathmatically out of it. And tanking isn't a reason, we are way past that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well that's why I said 'I' feel... I'm looking at the factors out there and saying I could feel it if it was me. I think last year they were - not impressed with Petty, giving Hack the "red shirt" year by design, and giving Fitz too much leash because of the year before. So again, just my feelings. Not saying there's any hint of it in the organization... But they seem to like Petty enough to name him the number 2, they likely know they need to find out what they have with Hack, and they don't 'owe' McCown anything... So I could see them pulling the trigger sooner... Doesn't mean they will! I just see fewer reasons (outside of complete stubbornness, which is a huge one) that they can hang their hats on for not playing someone else.

We just played a close game with the Pats and that was despite a a bad call going against us. FitzClown is firmly entrenched as the starter here unless things go off the rails.
