Yeah kind of confused about the lack of good safeties out there but the talent growing up these days aint about that cornerback life. Just a fucking headache position and a thankless job.

A couple? Try all of them.
No one ever set out to play corner, they just failed at wide out. I posit that defensive backs are worse because teams are running spread offenses are carrying more WR's, which depletes the talent pool of failed WR's from which secondary coaches can draw.
Nailed it.
Lol, my wife is freaking out at Ticketmaster Canada right now.

Santana Moss is going all Mendenhal claiming it was an inside job.

Maybe McCarthy should move Alex Green to safety.
Nick Collins always reminded me of a running back.
Jets may be in a tie for 1st for the division but I'm almost ready to give up on the season. The lack of talent on the offensive side is terrible and Sanchez has made absolutely no progress in the 4 years that he has been a QB.
Is their any team in the league that would do a straight 1 to 1 swap of starting qbs for Sanchez?
I can't think of any.

:jncMore later.
If you start talking to UFL teams, yeah.
He has the right hair style to play in the GB secondary and I'd imagine he can hit.
Do it!

Sanchez for Barkley. Then Sanchez can finish college.
Cleveland? They'd get a younger guy. :jnc
I don't even think that to be honest.
The sad part is I do think that the gm has tried to build parts around Sanchez with his moves but Sanchez hasn't done anything. Good QBs can make a bad team look better. The Jets won those playoff games in spite of Sanchez because the defense played their ass off.
Also Greene is horrible. The Jets RB situation is hilarious considering the team wants to run the ball.
They need to either make a big trade or clear roster space for next year and tank for picks.
he was on track to enter the hall a year before HoFlynn, but now he'll have to accept entering the same time as HoFinley
Got that first play under his belt, it's all gravy from here!

With all the PSAL's you just got
There would be a fucking RIOT
You're stuck, have to play it out, can take it to the shed out back and shoot it dead, have to suffer with the consequences
I hear Vince Young is broke?
McRib is still possible
Trade a 2nd + 3rd grab a 2nd QB roster off a lousy team
Fuck I'd try my ass to get Kap from SF, sorry FMT

They're staying optimistic about the season by mentioning that the Skins are first in TDs (15) and total yards in the NFC and first in rushing in the league. But they fail to mention that the team is 29th in total defense and 31st against the pass. They do acknowledge that Cundiff is shit; however, they've now turned him into the scapegoat for any potential future losses. It's all very comical.

Completely honest, Sanchez isn't going anywhere. Rex should have been fired long ago. New coach comes in, kicks Sanchez's tires, releases him.
Jets have shown that they aren't afraid to throw away a season before.
They do need to make a move if they still want this season to change.

The Jets don't have anything anywhere on offense. Including at QB. They knew it going into the season that's why they brought in Tebow. They knew they weren't good enough to even sniff the playoffs so they brought in the player with the biggest bandwagon fanbase around him to drum up a little attention for themselves.
I know he has slowed down slightly, but Champ is still one of the best.
You want the Jets to improve? Because that's what you are advocating.

I would trade for Kap in a second if I didnt have a QB. I think he ha a chance to be really good.

Chandler Jones is a beast.Can't wait to see how he develops.
Why exactly should rex be fired again?
Sanchez will be gone after this season and I think Tanny has done an ok job managing the cap he has done a horrible job drafting.
Rex has coached this team well.

Random fact: the Dolphins continue to prove that stuff like having an awesome run defense means nothing in the NFL. They are currently first in the league, giving up an average of 56.8 ypg, and they held the Cardinals to 1.9 yards per carry.
Their pass defense is ranked 30th.

He has all the athletic tools but the guy is a one read QB at best.

He looks so confident when he is in, he has great speed and a big arm. I gotta think someone will give him a shot soon, even if it isnt the 9ers.
You dont think he can develop that? I doubt Harbs is letting him stay in the pocket and look for his 3rd read.
One hand feeds the other. Why run the ball when you can just pass it? If Kolb can do it anyone can.

No argument there, they truly are a team that doesn't know how to close out a game. Hopefully that's something that will change as Philbin and Tannehill settle in, though.
He had a pretty bad first half passing though, and he threw two picks. The Dolphins pass D is bad but I think it's improving. They really limited Fitz yesterday.
And it's not like teams don't try to run on the Dolphins. Just look at how many yards their opponents have averaged per carry. That run defense ain't no fluke.
He'll follow McCourty's trajectory.

Tebow is the only thing that can save Rex
Is the NFL changing to 11-on-9 to simulate Big 12 defenses?

Tarvaris Jackson, Vince Young, JaMarcus Russell, or Mark Sanchez?

If anyone should be fired it should be Mike Tannenbaum. His inability to scout players and development has hurt the Jets. Seriously, Jets were so weak at RT, RB and LB and you draft a DT? Gtfo.
Um so the run D is so great because no one cares to run against them.
Run D matters. It all matters. But if all you have is run D with a so so offensive with a rookie QB you aren't going to win.
49ers and Texans play solid D both against the pass and run and it matters to the teams playing against them.
I actually feel bad for Miami. Can't stand the Jets or Pats so it would be nice if Miami became relevant again. Two very tough losses in a row.
