    Nope, nobody but yourself seen fit to mention it, I guess all three of us misread your post, sarcasm is so hard to show on the internet, there really should be a sarcasm smiley for this very event, it would save all the confusion and tantrums :rolleyes:;)

    So the 2000 yds rushing was sarcasm also? Oh, okay. We all missed that. I'm still trying to learn about football here, sorry.

    When was the last time our rushing game gave us 2,000 in a season?

    Sorry my eyes can't make out the different emoji's when I post from my phone. Maybe one day I will upgrade the phone.

    Upgrade my material?
    Ok here goes.....
    All this cheap talk about finding a QB is silly. Until we have a top notch O-line, it doesn't matter. We can draft from now on, and we will never find a QB that will put us over the hump until our line is outstanding.
    We have 3 chumps as QB's on our team. All long running great teams have killer O-lines. We don't have any resemblance of that. Haven't had in a long time either.
    Football is won in the trenches, first and foremost.
    Did you learn anymore football?

    Sorry to interject. In 2009 and 2010 we had a completely stacked team. Top O-line as well. A Sanchez fumble brought us down 0-24 before the half. I'd say if we had a better QB we could've been in the Superbowl BOTH years. It's much harder to draft a FQB than capable linemen. If the QB you think is the guy is available you take him regardless of whether your O-line is "killer" or not because good lineman are more readily available in both the draft and free agency. Good QBs are rarely if ever available.

    You just proved my point, thanks.
    Practically and QB but Nacho, and we play in consecutive superbowls.
    Much easier to build a line, much harder to find a Brady or Montana.

    But by that logic we shouldn't draft a QB ever. We have a chance to make a run at a really good QB prospect this year. A stacked team gives about as much of a chance at the playoffs as a single FQB that you can depend on. If you really want a great chance at a superbowl you need both a stacked team and a good to great QB. The league is too competitive to settle for one or the other, especially when we have a sub-par to average coaching.

    An awesome QB without a line doesn't work, but a decent QB with an awesome line gets you a lot farther. Dak sure prospered from Dallas's O-line. He would look like Geno under our line.

    I'm not worried about tanking or Sam Darnold, I'm looking forward to seeing the young talent on the 2017 Jets, most noticeably, Christian Hackenberg and giving him a real look as a potential franchise signal caller. Let's worry about all of this if we're 1-11 in November and either McCown is still playing or Hackenberg looks like Kellen Clemens.

    My point is that this team can not afford to let a projected FQB get away. We are going nowhere until we get the QB.
    And BTW, I want Rosen. I think he will be the most NFL ready.

    Sanchez played behind a pretty solid OL. So how did that work out?
