That's what classy fans do... fwiw, i want a new QB and HC next season too......but don't see the point of fans proving they are assholes. I'd rather root for them to beat the cheats.
Beating the Patriots would be as productive as winning those two games a few years ago. We're not beating the Pats unless their entire squad gets suspended. Im hoping for FitzTragic to show up and fuck up. Since Bowles went full pussy with this decision, Im counting the days until the cowardly lion gets bounced. As of today, I am once again, a darksider until this team finaaly gets its shit right. 48 years of this stupidity is too much! The fanbase has every right to boo this bullshit. I hope they get crushed so Bowles can answer more "best chance to win" questions.
You gotta play Fitz, right? If they just win 6 more games to get to 9-7 and everyone else loses 5-67 more games then they got a chance!
Doesn't make any sense. Our playoff chances are basically over so why stick with a 34 year old QB who wont be here next year? Should be Petty starting to let him learn and see what he can do.. The definition of insanity is doing something over and over again and expecting the same result.
I guess will never know what we have in house in the way of a young QB this year. So next year, once again, we will be scrambling to sign and over pay for another looser "has been" vet QB so Bowles can sleep at night knowing he has a Vet to cover his back. What a SORRY, SORRY FRANCHISE FROM THE TOP DOWN.
Well that just made my week.. definitely putting my tix up for sale. I will not go again this year as long as Shitzpatrick is the QB.
No shock to me at all. I knew the Jets were going to start Fitzpatick when Maccagnan recently said, "you think of different aspects of when you decide on making a change, especially at that position, because it effects other players on the team, too. (Hint: the young Jets receivers). If you’re trying to determine what gives you the best chance to be successful, but also if you’re looking how players develop and progress, I think the point I would simply make is you just don’t do it, you don’t just wing it." I believe Bowles and Maccagnan are both in agreement to roll with Fitzpatrick as the starter vs the Pats. It shows just how small the playbook must be for shotgun Petty. He's not ready yet. Last thing I'll say, is I would love to beat the Patriots, and if it takes starting Fitzpatrick to do it, I'm all in.
wrong. beating the Pats matters more than anything short of winning the Super Bowl itself. rooting for the cheats to win is nothing short of treason as a Jets fan imo.. if there is one team i hate more than this current Jets team, it's the f'n Pats. agree i doubt we do actually win tho, and regardless of QB, as the team has already quit. D sux, Oline sux, QB options suck, coaches suck.
Cman60, My wife and I have also been hanging on for 48 years. There were a few good ones and a few super game. Overall it has been a holding pattern with hopes of some brains from the Owner and the CS. But nothing permanent or positive develops. Sell the team Woody or hire a guru who knows what it takes. And let him run the operation! Woody, stay in your box and entertain the HoiPoli.
Remember when we meaninglessly won our game against the Titans that one year and totally ruined our chance Mariota?
Nothing about this move benefits the future of the team. It's so difficult to be a fan of this team, forget being a die hard for almost four decades. They are just a terrible organization.
Bowles: “[Fitzpatrick's] healthy, he’s been our starter,” Bowles said via Manish Mehta of the Daily News. “We can do more things with him." Like what? Target Marshall 20 times a game? Certainly not a long pass. That is the point of starting Petty jackass. Get him live playing time so he can learn and then they can do more things with the guy that will actually be on the roster next year.
big difference between playing spoiler to the cheatin Pats, and beating a hapless Titans team. the only thing that would prevent another Pats Super Bowl run, is not having home field advantage (where they do their most efficient cheating). beating them last season had a huge impact on them, and we didn't make the playoffs then either. no divisional game is ever 'meaningless' imo..
Bowles out.....he has lost all credibility. Pathetic decision, I hope the Pats D rack up multiple Ints.
He looked the part, but he is totally not ready to be a head coach. He lacks preparation and somehow his team gives 0 fucks under him.
