After being in the NFL for 5 full seasons (he sat and learned his rookie season), Fitz played in 27 games with 734 pass attempts and an interception rate of 3.68%. Notable his yards per attempt in that span was 5.59, so he was not taking many risks throwing the ball down field.
After his first 2 seasons, forced to start as a rookie, Geno played in 30 games with 810 pass attempts and an interception rate of 4.20%. Geno's yards per attempt is 6.88.
For the math challenged, that is 1 more interception per 200 pass attempts. Obviously, as a grizzled veteran, one would hope Fitz could play near mistake free football, but there is little doubt that an experienced Geno who had learned to minimize the mistakes is a better option. It is possible the Jets will win a game or two more this year with a seasoned Fitz under center. But that fixes nothing. We will still be in QB purgatory with the Bills. And, with our luck, Geno will end up as the next Rich Gannon.

Ian O'Connor @ian_OConnor 5s5 seconds ago Enemkpali said in '14 he didn't know cop he punched was "undercover." Incident report says officer was wearing hat/shirt that said "Police."

Well the racists are thrilled about this, so there's that.
Moronic.
Tell me about it. There's just no reason for it IMO

I understand vtn. But We have an explosive team built for killing. I didnt want that weakest of weak links out there not this year. I wanted to compete and now we will. I have been boiling cabbage and asking st patrick to get a hold of this situation pronto since june. Luck of the irish. Hey fishooked the jets new promo makes sense now. Bigger meaner Greener Joe Caporoso: I’ve seen some bizarre stories since I began writing about this team but this is certainly up there. More information on the entire scope of this situation should be on the way soon, particularly after the Jets break practice. A handful of immediate reactions/thoughts: Six weeks puts Smith’s timetable at 5 days before the Jets week 3 game. A more realistic timetable might be after the Jets week 4 bye. Ryan Fitzpatrick has played poorly this spring and summer. However, he is a competent backup with experience in Chan Gailey’s offense as a starter. The Jets offense will have less down field capability and still be susceptible to turnovers but FItzpatrick can keep the chains moving in the short to intermediate passing game. Desperate search for silver lining: Devin Smith's injury not such a loss anymore.

I think it's time to start talking about Fitz's deal with the devil. Starters fall to injuries to open his path to the number one QB every time. Corpses are piled sky high from the wrath of his Viking beard and the black magic it instills on anyone who threatens his play time.

Word is Pats will part with Ryan Lindley for a high 2nd rounder. IK took a bribe. You have to laugh at our fanbase rejoicing at pony missing 4 weeks, only to have our QB miss 6 cause a team mate levelled him. Yep, it's called karma. Don't forget flying banners over practice.

I can't believe Bowles lost the locker room this far this fast. It hasn't even been a hot summer and the hot heads are out in force. With Sheldon and IK doing their thing, the inmates are running the asylum. Wish we had Rex back. Que? Im not sure we have enough energy for this just now It's so hard to tell the difference between a troll and just or run of the mill Jets fan.....one is moron on purpose, the other one doesn't have a choice.

Apparently Geno provoked him by sticking his finger in Ik's face, but what preceded that I don't know I heard Geno threw the first punch but it fell a yard short. You win the Internetz for the week

Suddenly that week 4 bye could not have been placed better...
Smith will be back by game 5

Lets not burn the house down guys, its not like Drew Brees just got his jaw broken. Were talking about Geno fucking Smith. A guy who has been so bad, worse than sanchez at many points. That we have called for his head ( Remember San Diego, Both games vs Buffalo... I do). Point being, the love affair was at an all time high in training camp, just how it always is. We all were working one out for sanchez when he was doing jets west, saying hes turned the corner to watch a shit show unfold. Now there is always the chance that geno takes that step this year and becomes a real qb. Just like theres always a chance when I play the power ball and hope to get lucky. One in a million fella's. Our wins will come off the back of our defense this year. Fitz is good enough to not lose us games, that's what this club needs. typical garbage post!

LOL. The NFL promo for Tonight's NFL Access was: M-E-S-S, Mess, Mess, Mess! How can the Jets beat anyone else, when they're busy beating themselves?
I LOL'd, then I cried.

He did attend the 2nd day of the draft. Showed character actually. For you to be happy about someone getting their jaw broken, our starting QB nonetheless, is rediculous. Shows this franchise continues to be a joke even after the supposed Rex circus left. Same ol' same ol' Jets. Forever. We ain't going anywhere w/ Fitz at the helm. Sorry to say, but the season is pretty much done and it's only the second week of Camp. Pathetic. Had to have Aaron Freakin' Rodgers talk him into it though. Too bad Aaron couldn't have discount double checked him all through his Pro career. WHICH IS NOW OVER!!!! Geno's time in NY could be a case study for how NOT to bring along a QB. 1) Start him year one w/ a suspect WR-corps. 2) Year 2, do not draft any WRs in most WR rich draft in history and give him a stone handed TE instead. 3) When you do finally have an NFL calibar WR corps in year 3, have your 2nd year 6th round pick LB break his jaw so he's out for half the year. Yes, this is the way to bring along a new QB. I'm sure Andrew Luck could have done well in this situation as well.
