There is only one franchise QB on that list, and it's Chad Pennington.

Had he played elsewhere, perhaps a legit NFL medical staff (and lets be honest, ours hasn't ever really been legit) might have kept him more healthy, longer.

When I look on that list, at QB, he is the only one I think was capable of winning a Super Bowl.  He's easily the equal, IMO, of a Joe Flacco-in-his-prime.

The last, and only, Jets franchise QB was Joe Namath.  If anyone came close to being one it was Ken O'Brien.  Not Pennington.  1 magical partial season and a lot of unrequited hopes and dreams doesn't lift him to that status.

Jets fans need to set a much higher standard for their QB's.

I knew it was all going to be bad once the Raiders figured out Pennington couldn't throw the out route.

I went with Sanchez because he basically played himself out of the league in rex’s Circus.  He might have been a decent long term starter if he was drafted by another team. As for the other players, most had decent runs with the jets and some were just knuckleheads and deserve being where they are.

darnold was selected most. The thing is he’s still young enough to be turned around and just needs a better situation.

Different take here.I’m gonna say all of us and the other season ticket holders for the past 50 years. We pay the Jets to be part of this Sh*t. All the guys on the list got paid mucho $ to torture us. They won big time, us, not so much.

wow great answer

Darnold, his situation will be a course taught to all future GMs how to not catastrophically **** up in developing a franchise QB. I’m sure Lawrence will be in the same conversation on this forum 3 years from now.

Which is why if he or his reps half a brain he will dodge this place like a chick with scabies

I'm going with Jerricho Cotchery.

Cotchery on a real team is probably an 80/1000/8 guy.

Good call

Sanchez would have sucked anywhere.  He got to be Case Keenum here for 2 years
