Daniel Posted August 24, 2013 Share Posted August 24, 2013 WinSLOW is what?? You are a homer. I am sure Winslow is now a Hall Famer in your estimation. You know zilch about football. I swear you must've taken the sport up maybe 2 years ago Show me 1 full season where Keller was better than Winslow If you're taking about Winslow from 5 years ago. Maybe we can bring Jay Novachek out of retirement. Keller was set to be a beast this year, and was one of the few bright spots on the Jets offense when he could stay healthy.

Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD Winslow is only 1 year removed from an excellent season with Tampa. It's not like his last productive season was 5 years ago. Keller was a bad blocking tight end. He was a decent receiver. Overall a pretty good player. But let's not overrate him. Edited August 24, 2013 by '7' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nmigliore Posted August 24, 2013 Share Posted August 24, 2013 Geno is going to win the job as long as he doesn't do anything stupid tonight or aggravate his ankle. Lets Go Geno, just be smart! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NJDevs4978 Posted August 24, 2013 Author Share Posted August 24, 2013 I wonder if Sanchez is smirking on the bench the way Geno was smirking last week when Sanchez had one of his typical brain farts. Seems like the only guys that want to win this job are the third-stringers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nmigliore Posted August 25, 2013 Share Posted August 25, 2013 Man, everything just went down hill after that good TD drive. 3rd pick of the game already; the last two in particular were awful. So much for Geno wrapping up the starting job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NJDevs4978 Posted August 25, 2013 Author Share Posted August 25, 2013 (edited) He's probably seething now after Sanchez's own stupid turnover and to add injury to insult they got him hurt playing with a second-string line. I didn't really see the point of that either though. God, this game couldn't have gone worse for the sham of a QB competition. Geno with three turnovers and one stupid Dan Orlovsky-type safety and Sanchez gives a fumble away and gets banged up just when it looks like he's about to be gifted the job by default. Apparently the only way you can look good as a QB on the Jets is to wear a baseball cap. Edited August 25, 2013 by NJDevs4978 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NJDevs4978 Posted August 25, 2013 Author Share Posted August 25, 2013 And now we have OT in a preseason game lmfao. But really it's kinda sad that the one thing Geno had going for him before tonight was he wasn't Sanchez...and the one thing Sanchez had going for him was his durability. So much for the former and who knows about the latter at this point Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
'7' Posted August 25, 2013 Share Posted August 25, 2013 (edited) Well who knows what happened to that shoulder, but I thought it was much worse when he was laying on the field. He popped up, tried to throw a few warmups and then called it a night. Strange thing is that he looked really good on the few throws before that Geno looked horrible for the most part. But it can be excused with him since he's a rookie. 2 of the picks were really bad. The other was sort of his fault as well but I'd like to see more fight out of the receiver since the ball was in his hands. Kyle Wilson was terrible. He belongs in the slot exclusively. Ball is being thrown to his receiver and he doesn't even turn his head around. Rex dialed up some regular blitz packages. Nothing special. Still other than the fluke 1st play of the game, the Giants did very little offensively. Sheldon Richardson looked terrific. Stephen Hill caught everything today, can't fumble the ball though. Kellen Winslow looked very good. Edited August 25, 2013 by '7' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NJDevs4978 Posted August 25, 2013 Author Share Posted August 25, 2013 Rex completely lost his mind in the press conference (it was on the NFLN)...couldn't adequately explain why he had Sanchez in the game playing behind second-string linemen, got defensive when he was pushed and looked rattled jerking his head all over the place. If Sanchez is actually out for a long time that's kind of a fireable offense. I mean Sanchez isn't all that great but to lose your most experienced QB in the fourth quarter of a preseason game with guys who'll be bagging groceries in a couple weeks blocking for him is ridiculous.

So it's not absolutely crazy. It's not like he had Sanchez out there against Lawrence Taylor. 1st stringer vs 1st stringers...2nd stringers vs 2nd stringers, unless you didn't want Sanchez to play at all, that injury could've happened if Sanchez started as well (Geno took some hits) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derek21 Posted August 25, 2013 Share Posted August 25, 2013 That was the worst excuse of a football game. Both teams were awful. Giants continue their tradition of settling for field goals in the red zone. Jets basically are trying to ruin Smith before the reg. season. Ryan is a puppet. Can't believe Coughlin iced both kickers. It should've just ended in a tie. What's the point of playing overtime when it doesn't count? Stevie Wilson went down for us. And Sanchez again makes you feel sorry for him. He is so unfairly treated. Then turns it over comically epitomizing his career. Jets showed a decent pass rush. But both ex-Cowboy kickers stink. If anything, that game showed how unprepared both teams are. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's dumb...if you're going to play Sanchez at least give him the first-string offensive line. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nmigliore Posted August 25, 2013 Share Posted August 25, 2013 (edited) Rex made himself look like a big buffoon after the game. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FpAOL7OofSE I'm the biggest anti-Sanchez guy here yet I even recognize that he shouldn't have been in there at all. If there was any chance he was going to be the starter come Week 1, which seemed pretty likely about 1.5 quarters into last night's game, he just can't be in there. If they wanted to give Sanchez some reps, do it in Week 4 for a few drives with the first team, even if you're facing the other team's backups, not in the middle of the 4th quarter in this game. Just really strange. Edited August 25, 2013 by nmigliore Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yet Tom Coughlin extended the game on 3 occasions.. 1 FG to head into OT, and 2 TO's to ice the kickers --which both worked.. yet he's not reckless for trying to win the same stupid preseason game?? Stevie Brown is gone for the year thanks to the opening kick-off in overtime, and somehow TC's teflon.

Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD Yeah, this is pretty much an impossible spot for Rex, it really is. I think we all know that the Jets would love for Smith to be the guy, but they want Sanchez to be ready too, in case Smith isn't quite ready, but they also want to be able to replace Sanchez with Smith as soon as Sanchez falters. They seem to want to be prepared for every possible scenario, without really committing to anything. I think Rex's head is spinning right now, and I think as a head coach that has seen some of his power stripped, I think he's being put in the position of looking like the bad guy. I'm not saying Rex hasn't made his share of mistakes, but he's in a terrible spot right now...he's about to enter his fifth year, and probably loses his job after the season if he doesn't win some games. If he bites the bullet and commits to Smith, who clearly looks like he needs work, the Jets are very likely to have a rough year, and Rex will get canned. But the organization doesn't seem like it's willing to offer Sanchez much in the way of confidence and/or support, so how is Rex supposed to win with him? It's feeling more and more like the Jets should've just shown Rex and Sanchez the door. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
