PaJetFan Posted October 1, 2007 Share Posted October 1, 2007 We all know that the the final play of the Jets' day was a weak sideline pass that was intercepted. He said he 'intended' to throw the ball out of bounds and it, 'came out wierd.' Either way, Chad is now condemned. If he is telling the truth, then he is not even a 'good' quarterback, because throwing it out of bounds is a routine thing for any decent quarterback. On the other hand, if he is altering the truth (LYING) to save his reputation as being further damaged as a weak thrower...he is an even bigger turd. I have ALWAYS supported Pennington - but not now. We MUST play clemens immediately. He is ready to win NOW and the recievers need time to adjust to a hard throwing quarterback. The receivers need to catch his passes every day in practice. And Kellen needs to inspire all those around him to elevate their games to HIS level!!!! Please - play Kellen NOW!!!! Pennington will be a great backup Quarterback!!! Think about it! He's a great #2!!! let me say: I LOVE CHAD PENNINGTON. Not 'loved'. I love the guy as a person and a player. I truly believe the man is a winner and a great leader. But he closed the case that he is NOT possibly able to WIN consistently in todays NFL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iceman88 Posted October 1, 2007 Share Posted October 1, 2007 Chad won't want to be a backup and he's getting paid way too much money to be one. He would do great on a team like the Bears where we should try and trade him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NY JETS 29 Posted October 1, 2007 Share Posted October 1, 2007 I remember when a little birdy named Chad Pennington saved a 2-5 season in 2002, Maybe the same magic and this time MORE can come from Clemens, but it needs to happen now not at 1-6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaJetFan Posted October 1, 2007 Author Share Posted October 1, 2007 It would a great change of pace this year if Penny played #2 behind clemens. Pennington can be a great 'relief' pitcher for Kellen and maybe show a little spark...enough to get some good trade value in the offseason. Yes, the Bears may be the right fit. But a mid-season trade is just not realistic. I vote Penny for our back-up now. He'll be a good soldier, won't cause trouble and will genuinely help Kellen.

Sharrow Posted October 1, 2007 Share Posted October 1, 2007 Maybe we can go with Chad for quarters 1-3 and Clemens for the 4th, lol. Something like they're doing in Arizona. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jetsfan80 Posted October 1, 2007 Share Posted October 1, 2007 Chad won't want to be a backup and he's getting paid way too much money to be one. First of all, who gives a damn if Pennington won't WANT to be a backup? It's not his call. Second of all, Mangini wasn't the one who authorized Pennington to get a big contract. The money he's making will have zero influence on Mangini's decision. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My point is his not wanting to be a back up will lead to bitching and an eventual trade. Also it doesn't matter if Mangini didn't make the contract its absurd to keep a player making that much money as a back up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a more than valid discussion at the present time. When a player isn't performing up to the standard the coaches expect, it's usually time for a change. Especially when Option B is looking like a hell of a good option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jetsfan80 Posted October 1, 2007 Share Posted October 1, 2007 You guys are dreaming. What team on God's green earth would trade for Chad Pennington right now? The rest of the league hears the name "Chad Pennington" and thinks of the following: 1) Can't stay healthy (only one 16-game season in his 6-year career) 2) $64 million contract with $18 million signing bonus 3) Can't throw the deep ball (only 4 completions over 20 yards all year) 4) Aging (31 yrs old) 5) Chokes when called upon to: a) beat a top 10 defense; lead a comeback win; c) win a game when the defense does not perform adequately We're stuck with Pennington. The only option now is to put him on the bench and cut him when the time is right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
