That makes perfect sense to me. I just view both of them as equals in terms of being QB prospects at the next level. Clearly, they both bring different things to the table but I think both of them will need either time to develop or a good team around them early to be in a position to succeed. Hopefully JD has been watching the first half of this Clemson/ND game. If so, Morgan should be the starter down the stretch. Full tank.
At this point in time, Morgan is possibly better than Sam, even with no NFL experience. Be careful what you wish for!
After watching that Clemson-Notre Dame game, I don't want to sound extreme, but I will be very disappointed if the Jets win a game and blow the chance to draft Trevor Lawrence. He is going to be a star. You don't go (0-13) to just blow it at the end and miss out on a wonderful QB like him. I'm not saying I would stop being a fan, but I would care much less. This season has been tough, but it could be worth it in the end. Fields, on the other hand, looked terrible today. He can make up for it in the College Football Playoff, but he is not close to Lawrence. Maybe even a Peyton Manning/Ryan Leaf gap from #1 to #2. (at least today)
Us winning a game and not drafting Lawrence will be the biggest disappointment for our fan base since losing to Pittsburgh in the championship game....not sarcasm This is a chance to turn things around for the next 15 years, not to mention the domino effect: 1) Attain first pick 2) Attract top level coach and staff 3) Attract and afford top level free agents 4) Have a star on his rookie deal and have more cap space for years while the majority of NFL feels effects of cap space issues from COVID Us winning 1 meaningless game would prevent all of this. It's up to ownership and Joe D to have a plan for the next 3 games to ensure this doesn't happen. LA and Browns should be fine, but that Pats game is a huge ? right now without some creativity.
I've said it before and I'll say it again: if the Jets lose the top pick, Douglas should be fired along with Gase. Becuase that makes it clear that either Douglas is clueless or incapable of standing up to other people who are clueless. Either one is a fileable offense.
OMG! I just saw the funniest thing. Some guy's kids took a shot at the Jets in their father's obituary:
Field sucks period he would fail as Jets QB no question...he needs a dominant OL with no pressure and wide open receivers He is Haskins 2.0 Like I thought Ohio State produces OL and running backs, not QBs hard pass for me I’d sooner trade out of #2 if we end up with that pick than take him.
We should all chip in and have some Covid-19 infected food delivery kid visit the Jets at Florham Park so the Jets are in lockdown mode the final 2 weeks of the season.
But what are you saying they should do -- we all know that a team can LEAN towards a tank with personnel choices over 6 months but there is no way you can tell Gase or the players to deliberately lose on a given Sunday ?
The Jags beating the Ravens would be like me winning Powerball. I don't know why NE-Miami is related to our securing the #1 overall pick. We just need to lose out or get 1 more win from Jax.
Front office decision: We want to evaluate our bubble players, and we don't want to risk injury to anyone valuable going forward. So none of the following should be playing Week 17: Crowder, Mims, Perriman, Herndon, Becton, McGovern, Fant, Henry Anderson, Q Williams, Maye, and Austin. Essentially treat it like it's Week 4 of the preseason. Gase should have no say in this decision and should be fired before the game if he refuses to abide by it. Also, Douglas should have an idea if Darnold is in fact significantly better than Morgan. If so, Morgan should be starting.
Never know.. Ravens coming off a huge divisional win on a short week. They might over look the lowly Jags. Sprinkle in some Minshew Magic and now there is a chance
Meh....as far as we all should be concerned their only chance of winning is the Jags playing Chicago next week The Ravens got a scare from Cleveland and should be ready. They are not beating the Colts 12/27 unless the game is handed to them
