Dorkington Posted October 19, 2016 Share Posted October 19, 2016 (edited) If I'm Bowles, I'm planning to be there next season, which means that I want to throw Geno to the wolves now while I get the other 2 more practice reps. I have 2 more years of Petty and 3 more of Hackenberg before I have to make a decision on them, but only 10 weeks of Geno. Bingo. This way if Geno sucks, they move on at the end of the year... or if he's figured out the game, they might try to keep him. They have time on the other guys, no need to throw them in when they aren't ready. Edited October 19, 2016 by Dorkington Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GunnerBill Posted October 19, 2016 Share Posted October 19, 2016 They're 1-5. What 2 teams do you think they have a chance of beating? San Fran and Miami at home. I think they will lose at Cleveland to a Browns team that finishes 1-15. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YoloinOhio Posted October 19, 2016 Share Posted October 19, 2016 San Fran and Miami at home. I think they will lose at Cleveland to a Browns team that finishes 1-15.I heard a clip from the Jim Rome show yesterday saying if this was HS, the Browns would schedule the Jets as their homecoming game because it's probably the only one they will win.

zow2 Posted October 19, 2016 Share Posted October 19, 2016 Looks like Fitz's game vs Buffalo will be his last Great game of his career. He really balled out that game, but man the Bills DB's played so far back and the Jets WRs caught everything that night. In hindsight it's a terrible loss and an important AFC loss.

Get to 10-6 and I sincerely doubt it will matter with regard to playoff qualification. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chuck Wagon Posted October 19, 2016 Share Posted October 19, 2016 Losing Decker can't be underrated. It allowed defenses to key on Marshall and load the box on their run game. The Jets have zero depth, Enunwa looked good when he was their 3rd target and defacto TE, but he isn't talented enough to be a #2 and Robbie Anderson / Jalin Marshall / Cheorone Peak are all very young and none of them are anything special. Fitz is likely done in the league, no one will pay him what he thinks he deserves and he's likely not going to carry a clipboard for peanuts. They need to give Geno a good long look to make sure they should move on as he's a FA after this year. For all their draft picks and money spent on QBs, they could be taking one very early next spring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dollars 2 donuts Posted October 19, 2016 Share Posted October 19, 2016 Wonder what Fitz has made over his career. At least $50m I bet Good guess. His career earnings up until last year were 39 million and some odd change, and then 12 million this year. 51 million...not bad work if you can get it.

FLFan Posted October 19, 2016 Share Posted October 19, 2016 If they are moving away from Fitz there is absolutely no reason to start Geno instead of Petty. Bowles has lost his mind, and will soon lose his team. He has already lost this team if you watched them "play" Monday night. I guess he is not quite the coaching genius he has been made out to be.

It's in My Blood Posted October 19, 2016 Share Posted October 19, 2016 (edited) Would you welcome Fitz back as our back up next year when Manuel is gone? I would. Edited October 19, 2016 by It's in My Blood Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kelly the Dog Posted October 19, 2016 Share Posted October 19, 2016 Fitz this year wouldn't take the Jets job for peanuts because he knew he was going to be the starter. I think next year if he still wants to play, and I would bet he will because so few ever quit before they have to, that he would take 5m to be a backup and would be pretty good at it.

The Tomcat Posted October 19, 2016 Share Posted October 19, 2016 The tank is on. Then we need to trade for Brandon Marshall asap and help them out. Would like to make a play for Jefferies first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hapless Bills Fan Posted October 19, 2016 Share Posted October 19, 2016 Per Schefter: https://twitter.com/AdamSchefter/status/788755357652877312 Jets plan to name Geno Smith their new starting QB today, per league sources. es.pn/2ekADp2 Fitz remains the QB teams "move on from, then do a wholly inadequate job of replacing". I predict 2 games of Geno, maybe 1 game or part of a game of another QB then back to Fitz. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffaloFan68 Posted October 19, 2016 Share Posted October 19, 2016 Posted Today, 11:05 AM sullim4, on 19 Oct 2016 - 11:02 AM, said: That team is a walking disaster area... how did we lose to them in week 2? Fitz condensed 16 games worth of energy into that game. And his receivers made some nice plays. Biggest factor was that the Jets WRs were allowed to get away with pushing off the entire game! ....... and NO, I would NOT want Fitz back as a back-up over EJ.
