    They both get badly injured during their second pre-season with the Jets.

    We will make a topic next season when Sam is balling out and we bring up 2002 Pennington

    I never understood the worship some hold for O'Brien. I always considered him just an average placeholder waiting for the next real QB to come along.

    Did you see him play? Are you familiar with all the other failures at QB the Jets have had?

    I probably saw every game he played. I've been a Jets fan since they were the Titans. Any further questions?

    If the answers are "Yes" as you indicate, then why don't you understand that many would consider O'Brien the 2nd or 3rd best QB they've had? You might disagree, but surely you can at least see why he would be highly thought of.

    Just because a guy plays for the team you root for is not a good enough reason to create the image that he was better than his performance proved. That's what I don't understand.

    I think of him as more of a superstar version of Troy Taylor.

    If we don't get this OLine figured out PDQ, Sam will start to take too much punishment and yeah, he'll turn into O'Brien 2.0. He's already got an injured foot which I hope heals during the offseason so we better hope that was not a peek into the future. Macc has ONE JOB TO DO... Protect Darnold at all cost period! If Macc fails again, its not gonna matter who the new HC is will it..

    Robbie Anderson is Wesley Walker without 19 yards per catch. Enunwa is Al Toon without hands. Cromwell is McNeal without moves.

    You never heard of the Nagleites?

    Granted, Nagleism is a small boring cult...but they're out there.
