    I would rather have the stack of money with googly eyes play QB over Jackson

    True but that still doesn't make him dumb.

    The jets have three young QB's. Why add another with limited playing experience? Personally, I'd rather have a proven vet on the team. An older QB whose best days are behind him but could still make contributions when called upon.

    Wanna-be mike Vick. Running Quarter back with sporadic consistency. Anige is going to be our # 2 Quarter back, I?m certain of it. Kellen Cant transition into a starter roll let alone the back up position.

    He knows nothing of our system, and is he a big improvement over anybody we have? Not worth it.

    Same as us this year. Conservative, run heavy offense, with good defense.

    I would rather have Ainge. He looked good the other night. He played well in Tenn. and he had a broken finger his senior year. I always thought he was a smart pick up

    What about taking J. D. Booty in case they cut him... wouldn't be bad for Sanchez... they played together at USC...

    Who knows, maybe he replaces Clemens, not Ainge, and Ainge remains the # 3. If Clemens can't beat out a rookie QB, then he's not that good so why would we want him as our # 2

    The chances of the Vikings releasing Tavaris Jackson are close to nothing. He's still in his rookie contract. The Vikings would be retarded to release him given that he plays the most important position and is 2nd on the depth chart and is basically getting paid very little in comparison to veteran backups to play it.

    Will we release Clemens if Sanchez starts? We'd be retarded to do so as well.

    TJ actually did really well in his last preseason game.

    "Jackson's quarterback rating for the game was a 158.3, which is the highest number attainable by the byzantine formula that calculates that statistic. He completed 12-of-15 passes for 202 yards and two touchdowns, including a 64-yarder to Darius Reynaud in the third quarter. "

    Come on he's definitely a step up from Ainge, you guys are crazy.

    Maybe because he's been in the system 4 years and knows the system, he's a real good teammate, he can help Sanchez out, he doesn't earn too much money ecc ecc...

    If in the next preseason games Tavaris put's up the same numbers as this game and so does Brett Favre (1-4 for 4yds) who do you start in regular season?

    No way. We have quality back ups. We need a badass WR
