At what point did you know the season was over and Geno wasn't our future QB?

I gotta take this one from a Jets insider brother on scout.com. At what point did you know the season was over Jets faithful? For me, it was the the Chargers game. I was still hopeful for Geno, SLIGHTLY HOPEFUL! The Bills game I knew it was a wrap for Geno as well.

Geno throws 3 straight ints in the first quarter, Vick looked OK but nothing worth talking about and our D couldn't stop the Bills with Orton at QB. At that point, I knew Geno wasn't our guy and not only was the season over but I was rooting for them to lose the rest of their games for the QB (Winston and Mariota) race draft pick.

When he was drafted. Told everyone it was a bad pick.

He did have a perfect QB rating vs Miami. I know he is not our future, but he may still be our short term QB until we can groom someone else. We are going to be a top 10 pick for many years I think.

I think I knew our goose was cooked this season sometime around Halloween. As for Geno, I'm still not sure he's not the guy. It used to take NFL QB's 4 or 5 years on the bench before they were ready to step in. I still think Geno may need a couple more years to develop. Of course, I don't think he'll be given the chance. At least not with the Jets.

4-5 years is way to long now a days. Especially in NY-NJ. I say 3 years max a QB has to show a team and the fans something or its a wrap. Every since the Sanchez fiasco, I say a QB has to show me something positive in two years. Not saying he has to make the pro bowl or win us a SB that quick but show me you truly can be our guy or I'm ready to cut bait. I know that's probably unfair but this is the NFL (Not For Long) and life ain't fair period.

I could almost understand that after the Kotite years but it turned around in year one with the Tuna just like the Fins did going from 1-15 to 11-5 under Sparano.. I never can understand why pessimistic thought seems to make some fans feel good...

I still feel Geno could be serviceable but this year was crap from the start...I was optimistic but knew it was a struggle waiting to happen especially when CB after CB went down

Pessimism and realism are two different thoughts. I'm realistic. Tuna is not coming back!!

LOLz i was wrong when i posted here that the miami win was meaningless.. quite the opposite..

by playing his best game as a pro smith put the jets that much further away from drafting his replacement..

LOLz i guess his self preservation instincts kicked in..

The Dolphins probably let Geno have a great game knowing that the Jets would buy into it and keep him as their starter for another year or two.

We all know that mediocre franchise isn't smart enough to do that.

Just sayin he was involved. Sparano has been garbage everywhere the Tuna wasn't.

The Tuna was involved in not getting Peyton yea Tuna..
