Toggle shoutbox NYJETSFAN BANTER

Jets are doing jets related things also... THE KNICKS.

mgjetman :	(Yesterday, 01:39 PM) Sanch owns the #1 blooper of all time with that butt fumble also and to make matters worse he threw it right to a friggin Pat...
Jetsfan115 :	(Yesterday, 01:53 PM) buttfumble on thanksgiving was the low point of his career
Jetsfan0099 :	(Yesterday, 01:55 PM) Teammates talking shut about Sanchez
SecondHandJets :	(Yesterday, 02:11 PM) In case you haven't heard, because why would anyone report on the Giants, Nicks is also holding out
SecondHandJets :	(Yesterday, 02:11 PM) That makes both Cruz and Nicks.
SecondHandJets :	(Yesterday, 02:11 PM) But who cares, Sanchez threw 3 "interceptions"!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Jetsman05 :	(Yesterday, 02:59 PM) ?
Jetsman05 :	(Yesterday, 02:59 PM) why would we give a f*** about the Giants?
santana :	(Yesterday, 03:04 PM) gg03 jimmies are riled
SecondHandJets :	(Yesterday, 03:21 PM) You're not in NY. All the backpages are focused on Sanchez
SecondHandJets :	(Yesterday, 03:21 PM) None of the NY media even mention Cruz or Nicks
Jetsfan115 :	(Yesterday, 03:40 PM) nicks isn't holding out. he's injured still and taking it easy. cruz is holding out. why it isn't a big ordeal IDK. it would be for us
Jetsman05 :	(Yesterday, 04:02 PM) maybe because theyre not that far off.
Jetsman05 :	(Yesterday, 04:02 PM) Cruz wants to return back, they'll figure it out.
Jetsfan115 :	(Yesterday, 04:41 PM) 3 mil a year off or 30% less then cruz wants. tahst alot of money to be off
Jetsfan115 :	(Yesterday, 04:41 PM) cruz doens't want to leave NY cause teh extra money he'll get in endorsements plus he knows taht they can RFA him this year and then Franchise next year so he might not be able to get a LTD for 3 years
Mr_Jet :	(Yesterday, 05:21 PM) Clemens11/Tebow15 (soon to be Smith7) said if we had just drafted Crabtree and Nicks and kept Clemens, we'd be good.
Jetsfan0099 :	(Yesterday, 06:44 PM) No, he can't be Smith7
Jetsfan0099 :	(Yesterday, 06:44 PM) his name is reserved for garbage QBs, we don't want Geno to be bad
Jetsfan0099 :	(Yesterday, 06:44 PM) He can be McElroy14
extmenace :	(Yesterday, 06:51 PM) we're taking bridgewater next year with the number 1 pick and treating geno like a jimmy clausen.
Jetsfan0099 :	(Yesterday, 06:53 PM) What makes Bridgewater better than Geno?
HurricaneJet32 :	(Yesterday, 07:12 PM) everything
Jetsman05 :	(Yesterday, 07:56 PM) ^
Jetsfan0099 :	(Yesterday, 08:16 PM) college players always get hyped up before the draft process, just wondering what makes him so much better.
Jetsman05 :	(Yesterday, 08:19 PM) Stronger arm, plays in a pro system, better throwing motion, better athlete
Jetsman05 :	(Yesterday, 08:19 PM) there's probably nothing Geno does right now that's better than what Teddy does
SecondHandJets :	(Yesterday, 10:25 PM) Wouldn't it be funny with Bridgewater ends up having the type of season Barkley had?
Jetsfan0099 :	(Today, 07:48 AM) better athlete but never runs as well
Jetsfan0099 :	(Today, 07:48 AM) stronger arm but rarely throws deep
Jetsfan0099 :	(Today, 07:48 AM) I am trying to find this article, but Bridgewater had about the least amount of 40+ throws in college football
Jetsfan0099 :	(Today, 07:49 AM) I wouldn't surprise me if he wasn't viewed as highly next year. College players always get hyped up a year before the draft process. People change their opinions quickly.
Jetsman05 :	(Today, 07:56 AM) I'll put a good amount of money that Bridgewater is still highly regarded coming out next year.
Jetsfan0099 :	(Today, 08:00 AM) ok I found the chart
Jetsfan0099 :	(Today, 08:00 AM) Bridgewater had 0% of his passes go 40+ yards in college
Jetsfan0099 :	(Today, 08:02 AM) he could be, I'll wait though
Jetsfan0099 :	(Today, 08:02 AM) I doubt Smith will be as bad as Clausen anyways
Jetsfan0099 :	(Today, 08:03 AM) I remember watching Clausen in a NFL game and the guy couldn't even throw a spiral.
Jetsfan0099 :	(Today, 08:03 AM) Geno has been impressing teammates with how well he can spin the ball and sling it.
Jetsman05 :	(Today, 08:31 AM) I hope Geno turns out to be a f***ing monster
Jetsfan115 :	(Today, 10:52 AM) andrew luck was hyped up for like 3 years before he entered teh draft
Jetsman05 :	(Today, 11:34 AM) tehhhh
Jetsfan0099 :	(Today, 11:37 AM) it wasn't for 3 years and Andrew Luck is the best QB prospect to come out in years. Teddy Bridgewater most likely isn't Luck or RGIII
Jetsfan0099 :	(Today, 11:40 AM) I've only seen Bridgewater play once. That was against Florida, I actually watched that game.
Jetsman05 :	(Today, 12:12 PM) Teddy will be a good NFL QB I think

Jim Popp, GM of Montreal Alouettes in CFL, is believed to be on Jets GM radar as well, I'm told. He had been in mix for Panthers job #nyj

#Jets hired a search firm for their GM job, but it sure seems the search firm is just contacting candidates after reading about them.

Better way to say this: Search firm for #Jets GM seems to be reacting to twitter before they contact candidates

So if they interview the consensus best candidates, they're doing a poor job.

And if they interview people who no one has heard of, they're doing a poor job.

Cool story.

Here is a piece on some of the guys they are interviewing.

http://www.nfl.com/n...s-week-14-notes

Quote

Brian Gaine, Miami Dolphins assistant GM: Miami's been up and down, but one rival GM told me Gaine "really knows what he's doing. And I think he's ready." Gaine has a diverse and varied background and is considered the kind of people person who can be a unifying force.

Quote

Tom Gamble, San Francisco 49ers director of player personnel: A name on the cusp, Gamble has pro and college scouting background, as well as coaching experience. He interviewed in St. Louis last year; that the Niners have sustained last season's success only helps his cause.

Quote

John Idzik, Seattle Seahawks vice president of football administration: Idzik is a sleeper to keep an eye on, because of his versatility. He's a business-side guy who runs the team's cap, but he also does some college scouting for Schneider and has a wealth of experience with franchise rebuilds, going back to Dungy's Bucs.

Quote

Omar Khan, Pittsburgh Steelers director of football and business administration: Long seen as Bill Cowher's GM, Khan might now be less inclined to wait on a coach who might never come back. A really good leader who knows the business, Khan might need to be paired with a strong personnel guy, but he can do the job.

Quote

Marc Ross, New York Giants director of college scouting: A finalist in Chicago last year, Ross is in the running for the Panthers job now. The book on Ross: He's a good communicator and evaluator with, as one Giants official put it, "an executive skill set." One question that came up in my research: Can he win the interview with the owner?

Keep hearing former Broncos GM Ted Sundquist was particularly impressive last Thursday when interviewing for Jets GM job. Sleeper candidate.

Jets doing 2nd interviews Tues. would expect guys like Omar Khan, Russ Ball, Scott Cohen to be in the mix. Sounds like Jerry Angelo is not

It appears Jets will go with external candidate to be new GM (Khan & Idzik have had 2nd interviews). I'm hearing Scott Cohen is on periphery

I love how quiet and thorough the GM search has been:

Quote

@MMehtaNYDN: I'm told former Saints & Dolphins GM Randy Mueller interviewed for Jets' GM job last week. (Angelo & Sundquist also had prior GM exp. #nyj
