Geno played until Geno sucked? So he had a team constructed to win a Super Bowl from the day he got the starter job?Geno was the reason y'all didn't win? I'll put it this way: if Sam Darnold got hurt at the end of training camp and you guys had EJ Manuel as the backup and he got y'all two wins (that's all Fitz had to do to steal Geno's job) would EJ get to finish the season as the starter?I use him as an example because as Jets fans you knew exactly what Fitz was bringing to the table(as a former Bill), yet were more than willing to give him the keys over a guy who never got a chance to prove what he could do with genuine talent around him
Oh there were bigger issues than Geno and Reb, myself, and others lamented the fact that Geno didn’t get a chance to have a full year with the weapons Fitz had. I think Geno had moments bad enough to where fans didn’t think the roster had anything to go forward with (turned out to be true. Our longest tenured guy is a guard from 2013 who nobody would mind cutting if there weren’t more pressing needs)
Geno didn’t have the same level of investment Darnold has now and Fez had before him. Darnold hasn’t yet the point where fans throw in the towel on his ceiling. Once they do, they’ll give up on him also.
