KINGDIRK Posted April 16, 2018 Share Posted April 16, 2018 1 hour ago, Joe W. Namath said: It doesnt matter if your a day 1 starter or not. We gave mccown $10 million bucks to start the season as qb and show the rook the ropes. We are not like these other teams who have to put the rookie in right away. Its a huge advantage for us to have the rookie sit on the sidelines for 8 weeks to learn. We are in a great situation here. I completely agree. Having said that if a guy like Rosen is ready to play you play him. Seattle gave Matt flynn $10m guarenteed and a 3rd round pick (Wilson) ended up the starter. Same thing could happen.

It’s not unreasonable to think a top 3 QB makes us more competitive than McCown. He sucks at football.

RESNewYork Posted April 17, 2018 Share Posted April 17, 2018 So Fitz and McCown had career years in spite of Bowles? And Petty and Hack will shine for the next team they play for because Bowles is out of the picture? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You let McCown play half the season and then let mayfield/rosen start the second half of the year. We are in a great situation here. Bowles will be fired after this year and we will get an offensive coach moving foreard. That will change everything including the QB because he didn’t draft him and then we can go through it again in four years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Qbr 94.5, 67% comp. 18td 9 ints. In 12 games ? Sadly that is like the best qb season of a jet since broadway joe ? Over 12 games. Ok at least top 5 ha. With a crap line.. I’m hoping mayfield or whoever puts up those numbers by his 3rd yr. We do have more weapons on O this yr, will see if he can repeat. When ever the rookie is ready he plays, but we have no reason to rush him early on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greenseed4 Posted April 17, 2018 Share Posted April 17, 2018 You know how when your first-born comes out beet red, has a smooshed face and a cone head, and you secretly think it’s gross but you tell yourself (and his mother) that he’s the most beautiful baby in the world. Fully aware that the nurses know he’s got a face only his parents could love, you shine on their false compliments. And you just “try” really hard to love him. And then... with time and patience, he grows on you, and develops the most perfect little face you’ve ever seen. It’s like that with our QBs... except they never develop.

NoBowles Posted April 17, 2018 Share Posted April 17, 2018 I agree with the OP. If Bowles had his say, which thank God he doesn't ANYMORE, does anyone really think he would take a QB? Hell no! We are on our 3rd OC in Bowles 4 years. That is astounding. That is an awful situation to bring a rookie QB into, particularly when you consider that this team has ignored the offense in the draft for the past what, 10 years now? I have said this before, and I will say it again. You want to look smart on the interwebz? Predict whoever the Jets draft at 3 to be a bust, you will have about a 90% chance of being correct.

Fantasy Island Posted April 17, 2018 Share Posted April 17, 2018 Bowles is only here because we are tied to him. He will be gone soon because he sucks as a HC, and eventually that will be enough to fire him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jack48 Posted April 17, 2018 Share Posted April 17, 2018 14 hours ago, johnnysd said: Every time I get excited over the concept of us picking at QB at 3, a picture of Bowles pops into my head like a jump scare out of a horror movie. I seriously think that with this Bozo at HC, we may have the second worst situation in the NFL to bring a rookie Top 3 QB into. You all know, deep down in your bones that Bowles wants nothing to do with starting a rookie QB, since he is in essence a lame duck head coach, who thinks he needs to win to keep his job. So McClown will start because regardless of the rookies play in TC, Bowles will stubbornly insist that the veteran JAG "gives him the best chance to win". Oh we may hear, protestations of a "competition in camp" but that will only be for show. McClown will be the predetermined starter from Day 1. But it will be worse than that. The offense will do nothing to build an offense that will highlight our rookies strengths. Get ready to claw your eyes out as you read KRL Camp Reports where Mayfield, Rosen or Darnold got 9 snaps the entire day. Nothing really will be done to develop the young guy, it will all be about Bowles playing all his veterans to eek out 7 wins and keep his job, and Mac has no juice whatsoever to dictate the QB strategy. Only Chris does, but will he have it in him to force Bowles to have a real competition and focus 100% on developing the young guy, and playing him at latest by mid year? I doubt it. Bowles showed his hand with his "we are looking at 6 or 7 players at three". No, Toilet. The Jets are looking at 4 players. They all play QB. But I guarantee you Bowles is campaigning even today to pick Barkley ("we need to run more") or Chubb (cant invest too much in defense, who needs playmakers?) So Bowles in his mind is already red shirting whomever we pick. As Jets fans all we can hope for is that somehow our young QB is not permanently damaged by our buffoon head coach, and can emerge under the tutelage of our next head coach in 2019 like Goff did. Make no mistake, whomever we pick at 3 is coming into a horrible situation to realize their talent. Bowles will always play the guy most likely to lose by the fewest points Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
