Guddam!  Burns does remind me of Woody Johnson!

I would think they would try to swing a trade for David Mills, shouldn’t cost much and he’s definitely capable of winning.  Wilson is awful.  I thought he was looking a little better in preseason, now that the real bullets are flying, it’s ugly.  I’m glad they took themselves out this year, it makes life easier… still absolutely pathetic the Bills lost to them, but it is what it is.

Wentz or Ryan would have been better options, but they have to do something. They will lose the team if Wilson continues as the starting QB.

He's a giant douche, but I would have probably taken a chance on Wentz if I were them.  I think Ryan is done...he looked truly awful his last two seasons

[Kenosha2Buffalo]

I like him because I'm unfortunately a northwestern guy but he's not anybody's answer at the position lol

[frostbitmic]

They should sign Kaepernick

[Ridgewaycynic2013]

Considering the Bills are too proud, the Jets should have taken petty cash funds, and raided the Toronto Argonauts for Chad Kelly.  What could possibly go wrong? (Think 'Manchild in the Big Apple Redux')

A lot of bored housefraus in the southtowns? 🤔

after he goes 10/22 91yds and 0 TD, but somehow still gets the W against us, those local ladies will be all over him!

Honestly, which Trevor will play better this year?  Siemian or Lawrence?

 

This is sad but it may be true.  Three games into the season, it looks like the wheels have fallen off, and Lawrence has been part of the problem.

Siemian is a metaphor for rag arm journeyman JAG backup qb. 

 

Better a rag arm than a mushy brain like Wilson.

10-12 guys who are great at the NFL level...

 

Simian can go up against the best college team in the world and drop 60 on them tomorrow 

 

The talent Gap from an NFL quarterback to even a division 1 starter is insane ...

 

He's not a ***** QB lol he's just not good enough to start for the NFL or be a primary backup 

 

That's why there's 40 professional basketball leagues around the world..  you might not be a good enough point guard for the NBA but you can be a professional PG

 

That pro point guard in Turkey doesn't suck.. he's actually great.. just not good enough for the league

 

That's how I view all these bottom roster quarterbacks.. and QB3s

 

They are still better than 99% of the quarterbacks in the world... Which is an accomplishment.. they just aren't good enough to consistently crack the NFL

 

Sam castronova from williamsville South... Division 3 quarterback.. impressive arm.. team scored 55 a game in college .. got some invites to NFL camps.. but never even made a roster

 

He still throws locally trying to prolong his career ... And his arm is insane... Like when you see it up close you're like damn

 

The way the ball spins... Even if you didn't know who he was you'd be like he has to be a pro... And he could barely get a try out to a mini camp 

 

It's because being an NFL quarterback is the hardest job in sports..  and even the 4th stringer does have immense talent ..  even if it doesn't hold up in the NFL

 

 

Excellent perspective on QBs!

[Low Positive]

Just checked the stats for the Jets Pats game. Why in the heck did Zach Wilson throw the ball 35 times, but Breece Hall was only given 12 carries? Hackett is still calling the Aaron Rodgers offense.

Does it, though? 

 

If the Jets end up with a top 10 pick, the wise choice would be to select a QB in a draft that is supposed to be QB heavy. And we all saw how that worked with Aaron in Green Bay. 

 

Sinking that pick into anything but the QB of the future and depending on a QB that will be 40, was showing signs of decline, coming off a MAJOR injury and wouldn't have played a game of competitive football in over a year and a half isn't a great spot to be in IMO. Though, it is the Jets so I can see it.

Hope they get a rookie qb in draft.  If the past 2 they picked I won't even worry they will doom a promising qb.  Instead it might be fun watching Aaron and his it's not my job to train a rookie qb as his ego that they even consider not letting him dictate when he will retire gets him tearapart that team internally. I'll enjoy watching them implode and this makes sauce escaping that tire fire first chance he gets  which is fine by me.  Heck he may even sign with bills.

[BADOLBILZ]

 

I suspect Joe Douglas is probably thinking that this is an opportunity to throw Saleh in the deep end and see if he can swim...........and if not they can move on from Saleh and Hackett and maybe get a Ben Johnson as HC and be in position to get the 2nd-3rd best QB in a very good QB draft.......either by being well within the top 10 or being close enough to trade a surplus piece like Will McDonald to move up close enough to get a Drake Maye or the like.

 

Best way to salvage this season is to turn it into getting the best young offensive mind at HC and another crack at a young franchise QB.    

 

As for Aaron Rodgers..........I suspect he will get over Hackett getting hacked off if they get a guy like Ben Johnson.

Colin Kaepernick applied for the job. Honestly, it's a very well constructed letter. But 6 years inactive is a loooooooong time.

Why have J. Cole, a rapper, to be the cosign for your attempt at a return? Logic would dictate a decent, well known, well respected sports agent or agency to be the one to make it public knowledge… right?

I get that but it’s all about the $. Something Kaepernick made a large chunk from with Nike. Someone would do it for a payday.

The Jets should’ve retained Mike White or went after a dude like Garappolo or even Gardner Minshew in the off-season. Going into the regular season w/ a 39 year old QB and Zach Wilson as your backup was extremely stupid and the Jets deserve everything coming to them. What a waste of a great defense. Now they are forced to go through the QB scrap heap and no doubt Siemian will be starting sooner rather than later. I’m happy. One less AFCE rival to worry about. Miami will always be Buffalo’s true rival.

Right now, Uncle Rico is a better choice than Rodgers.  Then again, Uncle Rico might be a better fit in Buffalo if Ken Dorsey is planning on another 'Go Longapalooza'.

This dude is not a very good QB. He isn't terrible but he isn't very good either.  He sued the NFL and reached a settlement with them.  Not many people sue their employers and still work for them.  Nobody is going to hire this dude.  It's time he gives up.

Lot of very bad QB's around, at least he had some success. Given the situation, why not at least get him on the practice squad.

Yes there are a lot of bad QBs that is for sure.  I think he got done wrong but after suing and this amount of time out of the league there is about zero chance he gets hired.

That seems pretty obvious.  Don't know if he could be effective after all these years,  but I'll bet the players would support him. 

[John from Riverside]

I don’t know what their choices are it’s not like you’re going to find a starting QB this late end of the season
 

They don’t have a starting quarterback that’s able to play

Yeah, he's just not good enough for any of the owners to break ranks. The kneeling thing seems like much ado about nothing given where we've gone since then, but suing your potential employer and then depicting them as actual slaveowners in your movie, I just don't see it happening for Kaep.

well, the whole Aaron Rodgers thing kind of turned out bad.

The Jets couldn't afford Garappolo nor would he have signed on to be a backup.  No team can afford to pay a superstar QB and another starting-caliber QB.  The Jests couldn't afford Minshew because they spent much of their available cap space on bringing in Rodgers' pals and adding Dalvin Cook.

 

[Gregg]

You know what also has to sting for Jets fans. Texans rookie QB CJ Stroud has thrown for 906 yards with 4 TD's and 0 INT's. He also has a QB rating of 98. In just 3 games playing for a bad Texans team, he has shown more potential and promise in becoming a good QB in this league than Wilson has in his 3-year career.

I'm reminded of the Denver game without a QB. Kendall Hilton was recurited as a QB in college. He completed one screen pass in a NFL game. Nathan Peterman could run circles around most of the general population. Thats how good these guys are

They could’ve easily got Minshew who the Colts signed for less than 3 million.  Bet they wish they made that move now.

I was absolutely shocked that the Jets kept Wilson. You just had to clean that out of the locker room. They should have traded Wilson (you probably could have gotten a 3rd) and signed Mike White. The Jets would have rallied around White and with that defense, they still could have gotten into the playoffs. But now? That team is about to implode and they might have to fire the coach. What would be absolutely hilarious is if Rodgers forces them to promote Hackett to the HC position.
