Lol. somebodys bitter Another line of work ? you make it sound like he was working at the local cannery or some shit. This man is a multi-millionaire, and if he was cut, would not have to work another day for the rest of his natural life.
This is great news for the rest of the afce because chads is a terrible qb--he is a one trick pony dink and dunkster. He is fragile garbage inside and out. This is 2 more guaranteed wins for the pats this year.
well listening to mangnii on the fan it doesnt seem to me that anyone has been named the starter....he said noone has stood out.....i also read thatthe mets got linebrink the other day so lets wait and see on this one
great news.......he's saying all the right things...as per usual can't wait for the official announcement
We can have Brett Favre in his prime and that'd still be 2 more guaranteed wins for the Pats, lol...It's going to be a rough year, just have to be patient.
Although I have my doubts about chad, I will support him 100% if he truly has recovered from those rotator cuff injuries.
Chad has made believers in all of us who so anxiously waited for this day and stuck by him.May he lead us to the promise land!
Take this for what its worth, but Coach Mangini said today in the press conference that no decision has been made yet on who will be the starter and he will tell the media who it is as soon as he makes up his mind. He also mentioned that nobody "in the loop" can know who the starter is because he doesn't even know yet, nor do the other coaches....
Providing Chad's shoulder was healed well enough for him to play well, I had little doubt that he could beat out these other QB's. We still have yet to see if he can survive a season without a major injury though. A 17 week what-if.
This report does not come as a surprise to me. It was pretty clear that if Chad's shoulder was healthy enough to throw, he would beat out the other QB's in training camp. The big question here is how long his shoulder can hold up in full contact situations. Many people were doubters of JAbe until he gained 15 pounds of muscle before last season and proved everyone wrong. Let's hope Chad's 2006 season will be similar.
I don't believe this "still open competition" bullshit. It's over Mangini...word is out now...so stfu
Too early for a decision, have to wait at least 2-3 pre-season games, sorry but Chad is good, but the arm strength is a major concern as is his fragility, Ramsey is younger and has a howitzer for an arm...
I think you just like to say howitzer. Kyle Boller has a big arm too, what has he done? From the TC reports so far it sounds like Ramsey hasn't even learned enough of the offense to practice yet. Pennington never had a monster arm, and it sounds like it's back to where it was before. When healthy he led the Jets to a lot of wins. Staying healthy is really the only concern we should have at this point.
Source: Jets' QB job isn't Pennington's yet ESPN.com news services Cheer up Patrick Ramsey, Kellen Clemens and Brooks Bollinger. The Jets' starting quarterback job could still be yours after all. A source with knowledge of the situation told ESPN that a Newark Star-Ledger report that Chad Pennington had won New York's starting quarterback job was incorrect. The source told ESPN that no decision has been made yet about who would start against Tennessee in the season opener. The Newark Star-Ledger, citing a team official with knowledge of the Jets' plans, reported Wednesday that Pennington had won New York's starting job. New coach Eric Mangini began training camp with a four-way competition for the job, with Pennington competing against Ramsey, Clemens and Bollinger. "We're surprised at the progress he's made," the official told the newspaper. "No one expected him to be this far along this early." The official told the Star-Ledger that Pennington surprised the organization with his arm strength and accuracy early on in camp. Pennington was far from crisp when the Jets opened camp, but has made progress each day. "I have been really happy with Chad's progress," Mangini told reporters Tuesday. "He has strung together some good practices." Ramsey, the former Redskins starter, was acquired by the Jets in an offseason trade. Clemens, a rookie second-round pick out of Oregon, has the strongest arm of the bunch. Bollinger started when Pennington went down last season, but had a remote chance of winning the job. After getting a $64 million deal as the franchise quarterback in 2004, nothing has gone right for Pennington. Once hailed as the face of the franchise, this could be his final season in a Jets uniform if he fails to win the starting job. He initially tore his right rotator cuff during the 2004 season but played through it, and ended up having surgery in early 2005. But it is now apparent the Jets rushed him back so he could be ready for the start of last season. He only had six months between his surgery and the start of camp. Pennington hurt his rotator cuff again in the third week of the season, and questions were asked about his durability. Still, the seven-year veteran restructured his contract in the offseason to make it more salary-cap friendly in the hopes of getting his job back. Information from The Associated Press was used in this report. __________________ sorry boys...the QB position is still open as of tonight
Yes, but it doesn't matter if you can't learn the offense, can't make reads, throw picks in TC and not improve. Ramsey's already in Schott's doghouse.
