Everyone saw that coming from a mile away. But it's certain there will be a QB carousel this season anyway? The OL is so bad this far into preseason they're pointing fingers at each other. They don't understand their blocking assignments. Brandon Shell got abused by JPP.

McCown plays rough like Fitz used to? McCown will not last long behind this OL. Make no mistake about it, the OL is a problem of epic proportions.

I'm actually sorta surprised. I thought the fact that McCown didn't play games 2 and especially 3 and he got no practice reps over the past two weeks, they really wanted one of the youngsters to step up. I also thought being that Petty sorta stepped up over the past two games they would give it to him. Doesn't matter, McCown will must likely get hurt by game 3 and/or he will play horrible enough to be benched by games 3-5. Guess the youngsters didn't show enough or this was their plan the entire time. TB will be gone by next year and maybe even Mac. So who gives a fuck!!! I just hope they don't mess up our chances to draft Darnold or Allen. Can't win anymore than 2-3 games max to get that top 1-2 spot. Jacksonville and San Francisco will be hot on our asses for the 1-2 draft spots. We should have a vote on this, I say McCown is gone by games 3-5, Petty comes in and gets hurt or plays bad enough and he is gone by games 8-10 and Hack finishes the season. They win 1-2 games max and draft Darnold or Allen. Only bright spot to this season.

it's almost inconceivable to me, ownership has forced the FO into watching this incompetent, self serving **** pull this shit even after his team quit on him last season!!

maccagnan gutted the roster only to be left powerless, watching this dickhead do everything in his power, for this franchise not to be able to draft one of the two blue chip QBs in the '18?? really "coach bowles??" you self serving ****!!

I think your looking at this the wrong way my friend. I understand where your coming from and agree, in a normal situation like what Rex Ryan did to us his last year, I get it. However, with this horrible oline the skilled offensive players being no better and the QBs being the worst combined in the history of the league. I can't see the Jets winning anymore then 2 games anyway. That should be good enough for that #1 or 2 spot. Doesn't matter what TB wants to do, the team is the team and they suck. They are no better then a lucky, and I do mean lucky 2 win team and it doesn't matter who the QB is. So I think we're good regardless.

very fair points 82..

but it it still irks the shit out of me, this dope is being allowed to try to pad his sorry ass resume at the franchise's/petty's expense.. i'm sorry but i refuse to get over that!!

how can he look his players in the eye now when he lied his ass off (again) about players competing for jobs?? can you imagine him trying to say something, anything to petty aside from, "grab your helmet kid, you're in??"

LOLz like it's lost on the rest of the league, he's bending the jets over in hopes of getting another HC job, by trying to squeeze 4 or 5 useless wins out of this team??

yeah, when bowles inevitably gets canned black monday, teams will be climbing all over each other to get a chance to hire this dickhead..

LOLz BTW, when do we get the tweet, forte is the starting back week one??

a 38 year old starting QB & a 31 year old starting RB in a full blown rebuild??

LOLz jeezbus!!

What about Toilets promise from the off season that he wouldn't be using Sheldon as a linebacker anymore? Now, I see in every preseason game he has Sheldon Playing stand up linebacker? If we all bothered to sit down and list all of the complaints we had about Toilet we'd be here all night.

the short answer is, he makes decisions/lies like nobody is keeping track of them.. well, we are "coach "bowles.."

that, & apparently, he answers to no one in this organization..

WAFJ.... He gives us the best chance to win.... LOL. As Sack stated this lame bum needs to be fired today.

Its criminal the way he treated Petty . MHO he is no better than Kotite and frankly maybe worse.

If Bowles isn't a Registered Cretin, he's working hard for his certification.

LOL, I hear ya and it is a all out shame!!! TB is trying every bit to hold on to his job and win or just say fuck it, "I'm going against what you want me or your telling me to do just to piss you off because I know I'm getting fired anyway." Either way, with a normal bad team this might turn out to work against us but in this situation I don't think so. The Jets are probably the worst team in franchise and all of NFL history period. So if this is the case and it appears so, it really doesn't matter what TB and the rest of this CS does. The Jets will go 0-16 and win 2 games at most if their lucky. So I believe were looking dead in the face of Darnold or Allen and we will draft one of them in 2018.

I don't want to UNDER react to what Toilet is doing, but I think a lot of you may be overreacting to it? I don't necessarily think Toilet starting the best QB on the roster makes there record better?

Look, based on how this team has looked in the preseason, I absolutely CANNOT see this team winning any more than TWO games. They are just so bad in every area, INCLUDING defense, that most should not see this team actually having a chance in more than or 2 games.

mainie, I could live with missing out on either the USC, or the UCLA QB if we find out if petty can play..

simply put, bowles is trying to advance his career at the expense of petty's.. again!!

not cool.. actually, it's ****ed up!!

No No No they are resting him for the beating he will get. His face will look like rocky after game 3

Lets not get excited folks...there is some good news here........I think it is safe to say that Namath's record as the Jets only winning Super Bowl QB is safe for another year...............or more

Coach has no idea what he's doing... for the final preseason game he stated:
"Football is football," Bowles said during a conference call. "It doesn't matter who we play. Everybody is available to play. It doesn't matter whether it's the quarterback, the punter, the snapper, and I'll play them as I see fit."

so so don't let your veteran compete in the preseason " competition "
name him your starter
then say he may play in game 4 of the preseason when every other rational NFL coach does the opposite
so your stater goes into the season , under a new , coach, new team, new coordinator , new system but didn't need work with the starters
how much longer does this incompetence go on?

did not work with the starters because they were afraid for him to see how bad they are before the first game. :global (37):
