    I'm having trouble understanding this, please help me:

    "What a step back for the Jets. Whenever I mention Kellen Clemens deserves playing time, Jets fans say I'm nuts. Hey, it's not a knock on Chad Pennington. But this team has two good quarterbacks. Both of them should play some."

    During the season? Equal Pre-Season playing time with the 1st team? Or is he Jets hating for fun?? What does he mean????

    I think he forgot to take his meds.

    Think he is saying that he believes that both players should get similar reps during the season no matter what.

    Clearly he wants Chad playing WR while Kellen plays FB. That way they can both be playing at the same time.

    Does this guy make shit up or what?

    I would say the split in fans between Chad and Kellen is 50/50...

    Peter, what "New york" fans were you talking to? Tom Brady? Tedy Brusci?

    Having 2 QBs split the snaps during the regular season is a horrible idea. Makes the other players wonder who their leader is and is strange for them to have 2 different guys running the offense at different times. Especially if they have completely different throwing styles.

    Yea, Peter King is pretty much your worst possible source of factual information. The guy appears to raid other stories for tidbits and then preproduce his perspective. What a joke.

    Peter King likes Clemens a lot. King clearly thinks the Jets would be better off with Clemens under center, and maybe he's right. His positive comments about Chad were just out of respect.

    The day we drafted Clemens, Jaws and King both thougth we got the best QB in the draft.

    If we are 4-4 at the midpoint this year it will be time to find out.
