In my day we did not have self-esteem... we had self-respect, and no more of it then we earned. -

I just hope the media finally gets off his nuts

Re: anyone else glad....
He would make a good backup to help tudor Trent, it isn't like any of our
current QB's can share anything with him of value.Comment

Re: anyone else glad....
I was glad then, and I'm glad now. There is very little upside to a 39 year-old QB.Should have known, way back in 1960 when we drafted Richie Lucas Number 1, that this would be a long, hard ride. But who could have known it would be THIS bad?

He's learning a new system & new plays with new names.I didn't come here to fight, I hate fighting. Life is way too short to spend it on fighting! Go fight with yourself, one of you will eventually win!Comment

Re: anyone else glad....
If we were a QB away from being Super Bowl contenders, then I would have wanted to make a play for him. But we're not in that situation. Our QB is playing fine and our young guys at other positions aren't ready to compete on that level yet. Bringing Favre here would have set us back more than it helped us.Comment

Re: anyone else glad....
Well, to be fair, the Jets made some other moves in the off-season and had two great drafts. I don't think anyone expected Favre alone to get the Jets to 10 wins- I think they thought he was one more piece that would help them.Originally posted by pinkdogg32
But honestly, does anyone think the Jets would have won more games at this point with Pennington?Comment

Re: anyone else glad....
Favre is still better than 2/3 of the QB's playing right now. He is also in 3rd place right now for TD passes, 10th in rating, 2nd Comp. %.
It was a smart move for the Jets to trade for him.Comment

Re: anyone else glad....
i disagree with you Op. The jets had one lucky year with Mangini, everyone thought he was the real deal and last year he showed his true self. he has very little experience and easily confused.
The jets win for spending the most during the offseason. But it's not going to net them any results.
If the jets weren't a large market team, they'd get the same respect at the chiefs or bills when they are bad. but since they aren't, they get more attention.
At the end of yesterday's game, they zoomed in on Favre's face and i swear to god it looked like he was going to call it quits. That guy's wishwashy-ness over the last 5 years has made me hate him. i wish he'd just go away.
I never wanted favre in here. too expensive, too late, too little in production.Comment

Re: anyone else glad....
at least pennington knows their plays. I;ve heard that Favre sometimes just says "Ok guys, same play" because he didnt know what was going on. I guess it is to be expected for a new QB to take a while to digest those NYC phonebook-sized playbooks, but who knows.Originally posted by OpIv37
Ah, what am i saying, pennington is a bum. No way.Comment

Re: anyone else glad....
He can still hurt you if you give him time. He will beat us if our DL doesn't harrass the hell out of him into creating INT'sComment

Favre aint the tutor type, and he sure doesn't come out of retirement to ride pine.Originally posted by Skooby
Any franchise that went after him was up for a complete upheaval, not an experienced, very expensive back up,

Farve has mostly been a pick machine in his career.
That's always been a constant.Comment

Re: anyone else glad....
Buffalo would have been a better fit for him.
btw, Mangini didn't coach that game well at all. 1/2 yard & goal..throw it?
Brett could've laid down & made the TD or 2 pt conv or whatever it was.
And that's just one example.I didn't come here to fight, I hate fighting. Life is way too short to spend it on fighting! Go fight with yourself, one of you will eventually win!Comment
