Its all on him, It don't have to be through long downfield passes, Dink and dunking works just as affectively, 80 yards for example is still 80's whether you cover it in 2-3 passes or 8-10, It all amounts to moving the ball

   He hasn't accomplished anything yet...I'm sure he understands

I think at this point the fans see the offense with Decker and Marshall and feel like he should have a good year this year. Certainly not be a turnover machine like he was last year. I think that is fair. Players know when they sign up to play in NY there is not  a lot margin for error before the fans turn.

This is going to be a long year for Geno. He has no latitude at all with the NY fans.

haha. What took you so long? Last night I saw this story and I kid you not. I said to myself, "I bet Amfootball will post this story tomorrow morning." You proved me right once again. You are obsessed with the Jets. :P

I hope Geno proves those fans wrong.

True..Jets are the 4th best team in a 4-team division, aren't they?

Maybe the Jets will get the hint that level of QB play is unacceptable and it's time to do something about it. I doubt it.

 

Between Geno, Vick, and  Fitzpatrick Fitz is the "best" of the worst. Petty is an unknown at this point - like MTC said they should start him. Unknowns are better than proven bad (or washed up in Vick's case) players.

Its sad that they regret letting Sanchez go....honestly with the defense they have had they could have ran Tim Tebow out there and been 8-8. Thats a team that doesn't need big plays to win games. They should be able to matriculate the ball down the field and play a game of field position. Heck even 3 is a win for that offense...they don't have to score 7 every time. This is a team that if they score 20 they should win. Be interesting to see where they go after Rex.

I never understand why fans boo their own team and players.

Me either. And it is only TC to boot. I mean the point is you want your guys to do well and booing really does not help them at all. It is a fans right and all but I have never understood it either. It is not like they are trying to play poorly.

But you think Johnny and Griffen are good?

Yep. Johnny had a terrible rookie season no doubt but the guy is entering his second year. As far as we know he could be a top ten QB in five years. Griffin is obviously a better player than Geno. Jury isn't out on him either.

No. The numbers and results bare that

Again...in your opinion. Are you ready to derail another thread by picking a fruitless fight with me about players I like? Do I have to start trolling Manning randomly in threads just to get you out of this habit?

No, not even close. Try harder

I'm not trying anything. You're the one being childish (once again) and trying to pick fights about players someone else likes. I don't care about Manning enough to go around bashing him to get a rise out of people. You should take your medicine and get to bed, I'm not in the mood.

You said the fans should boo Geno because he sucks. He does indeed suck, but he doesn't suck any worse than Johnny or Bob. Johnny won't even be the starter.

Aaron Rodgers wasn't a starter for what, five years? Brady wasn't a starter. Nick Foles started out as a back-up, and a lot of people thought Wilson would amount to nothing more then a back-up. I'm sure you get the point now.

Geno Smith, Michael Vick (the current/old version), and Fitz are all a detriment to whatever team they start for instead of an asset. They do, indeed, suck. Smith is the worst of the 3, Fitz is the "best' of the 3.

 

The rest of the guys you mentioned all eventually got their chances and shined. These 3 guys have had their chances, and suck it up for the world to see.  Vick used to be good, Smith and Fitz are never waszzszsszsszszuzu.

Thanks. That's how I feel about it too. I don't see why some posters think I can't like one guy and not be able to recognize another guy's faults. Of course it's been common knowledge that Geno has looked terrible for a while now. The Jets are probably doomed offensively.

      Bears Colts predictions

      By Two_pound · Posted

      Time for this weeks prediction. I'm 1-1 thus far. I really didn't think we could conceivably lose to a qb who had only thrown 6 career passes heading into last Sundays game, but as they say."on any given Sunday the Irsay's can lose to any inferior opponent while making a journeyman qb look like an all-pro"(I paraphrased that a little, but it is historically accurate). So, onto todays game, facing a rookie qb making just his 3rd nfl. start, 4 fewer than ours, so that really balances out. If we use the offensive game plan against the Bears that we used against the Texans and mix in some deep throws we will shut up the yapping Bears defense and win. If we use the pedestrian, bland offensive game plan we used against the Packers we will lose. I am going to flip a coin, hold on-------------the coin says we will win! So I'll go with the win today. Game time at 1 o'clock, go Colts!!!!

      It's the scheme and the personnel

      By Two_pound · Posted

      I watched a Mike Tyson documentary last night, what stood out was Tyson ALWAYS took the fight to the opponent, he NEVER sat back and waited for his opponent to attack him. Maybe Gus and the Colt defense should take note of that. Against the Texans we attacked down field, the Packer game we threw ONE pass over 50 yards(last play of the game). Disappointing thus far, but onto to the Bears.

      Where is Davis at? Also why is Grover not playing nose instead? This makes no sense to me.

      It's easy for other people to say for someone else to walk away from like $160 million guaranteed. We know your health, especially mental, is more important than money. But generation wealth & financial security for your self and family is hard to turn your back to
