    Fellow Jets fans,

    I rarely post on here but I feel there has been one thing and only one thing keeping this team back. It's not getting a number 1 WR or a shutdown corner or even a HOF QB. The solution is staying in the game and not giving it away with turnovers. This season is a disaster because 8 games in the Jets are -15 in the turnover column!!! Geno Smith is a turnover machine! Mark Sanchez was a turnover machine! There are plenty of veteran QB's who we could get without giving the ball away 2-3 times a game. Hindsight is always 20/20 but imagine using that 2013 second round pick in attaining Alex Smith? When you engineer a team defensively like the Jets have and by that I mean all 5 1st round NFL Draft picks have been defensive since 2010.... ALL OF THEM every offensive possession is 10x more valuable than someone who is loaded on offense because you know a field goal is a win at the end of a drive. I don't believe we should blow up this team or the coaching staff because there are some good parts. It starts with the offensive line keeping whomever is upright and they suck right now in pass protection, followed by a QB who can make reads and not give the ball away. This team does not suck, they are in every game, just fix the turnovers. I have attached the turnover ratios as of this week from all NFL teams, we are dead fucking last. What hurts even worse, look who is first! Imagine if this season we were, I dunno at least plus 4 in this statistic.... Fix the turnovers and we can beat anyone, and oh yeah fuck the Patriots.

    fixing the turnover ratio also = getting more turnovers on Defense.

    For all the praise Ryan always gets on Defense, his schemes/players rarely get turnovers as well. Average at best in the NFL over 4 years with the Jets.

    They would definitely be better than 1-7, but the real problem lies under center. Until the Jets get a true franchise guy, they will be mediocre at best.

    Suck for the Duck 2014!

    Fixing the turnover ratio would mean finding a QB and finding good CBs.

    I think everyone has said that since last offseason.
