Why, Geno is a piss poor QB.
He is what he is, this false hope for the guy is fukking comical. It's Sanchez all over again, except he is not connected to any success whatsoever.
It's one of the hallmarks of a Jets fan, never experienced a good QB, so they`ll fall for anything. You're like the fat girl in college who never got any attention in High School, desperately trying to spin trash into treasure because you don't know what is good in the first place.
Favre, Testaverde, and Pennington were all good QBs.
As for Geno, unless you're getting a true upgrade at the position, why bother? Fitzpatrick is not an upgrade. And if he is, it's so marginal it doesn't even count. Can you win with Fitz? If your answer is yes, then why the hell has he been around for so long and not won anything? He's been bounced around from team to team. We're in a league right now where the market for a QB is at an all time high. If you really believe a QB is that good and you can win with him, said QB would never hit the open market.
We know what Fitzpatrick is. I still don't think we know what Geno is. Fitz has played in the league for several years on some good teams with some good weapons surrounding him. Geno is a 2 year QB who has not been afforded such luxury. Personally 2 years is way too early to make an accurate evaluation of a QB. Troy Aikman was HORRIBLE his first 2 years. And he turned it around it become a HOFer and is considered one of the greatest QBs of all time. Good thing you guys weren't running the Cowboys, because yall woulda ran him outta town after his first couple years.
I'm completely about giving Geno this year to finally show something. He's in his 3rd year and he's finally got weapons around him. If he fails, you can finally shut the book on him and move on. If anything, Geno will help you to get a QB who you really want (through the draft). I'll almost always go with the higher ceiling/lower floor QB over the higher floor/lower ceiling QB
