    Way, way, way too early to say.
    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?

    Re: Draft do over, Manuel or Smith?

    physically ej is much more suitable to the qb position, ie. bigger and taller. that doesnt mean everything but its an advantage

    ej appears much more mature, professional, and has a fantastic demeanor which is another big advantage long term

    ej does have accuracy problems, which hopefully can be corrected over time. but on that one, advantage smith

    honestly id much rather have ej, and not just bc hes on this team. i think the chances are much higher that he has long term success than geno, but thats of course just a guess
    One set of rules for all in the beloved community

    Same was said about Losman and Maybin.

    Hysterical thread.

    I called it last night and it came to fruition.

    EJ has been hurt less in his career than Geno, so I find it funny he is no injury prone because he is going to miss a couple of games.

    Rookies are going to have their ups or downs.
    Right now Geno has led the Jets to 3 wins, EJ has led the Bills to 0.
    And please save me that gift pass interference call and Steve Johnson fumble recovery victories.
    We won those games in spite of EJ.

    So we don't get to count the "gift interference" for EJ but you get to count the gift personal foul that won the Jets game against Tampa Bay? Seems fair in your world.

    you know I'm not sold on Ej, but you're being absurd.

    Geno was gifted the victory vs the Bucs with a late hit penalty.

    Fair is fair! :)

    Without the pass interference call the Panthers have the ball, the INT stands.
    The Jets would still have the ball without the personal foul call.

    Yep. The Jets would have had one play left outside of FG range.

    Draft Lane Johnson and move Glenn to Guard. Get EJ or Geno in the 2nd round maybe even the 3rd.

    we also gave the ball back to teams via penalties.

    a) Without the pass interference, SJ gets at least a hand on the ball and there's no interception.

    b) Without the personal foul, the Jets have it with time for one play well outside of field goal range.
