Move on already, tired of hearing about the NY Jokes…Sexy Rexy wants to lose every game coming so that he can have a shot at Geno Smith.
I could see the headlines now, USC Trojans replaced by WV Mountaineers…

T.O. cannot go over the middle anymore. He basically runs go routes all day.

@badintent- you wrote: Last time we ALL checked, the Bears were not in NFC championship game the last 4 years. But Jets in 2 AFC games in the same time frame. We’ll see the Jets with Tebow in SB before we see Jay Pick 6.

You can’t REALLY believe this can you?
The Bears are a much better franchise than the jets and have been for a long time.
Are you going to hold onto those 2 AFC playoffs games for the next 40+ years as something of meaning? Last we ALL checked, they didn’t give rings for losing in the playoffs.

Why doesn’t TO just give up and come to the realization that his football career is over? If he hasn’t finished his degree yet, he should go back to school go like the former diva WR Andre Rison. Football was obviously his life and it would be kind of sad if he was such an attention grabbing, immature individual.

Enough with the obsessive T.O. talk. Why can’t everyone accept the fact he can’t play anymore?

Huge Jets fan. Signing T.O. wouldn’t solve anything. The roots of their issues run much much deeper. How could the writer of this or anyone else say he deserves a looks see??? There are many teams closer to winning than the jets with WR issues and haven’t brought him in—no one will

Weren’t the Jets supposed to be better than the Giants for next ten years starting last year? Good call Rex.

“and I’m not interested in the Jets” says countless losers who nonetheless feel the need to not only read the article on the Jets, but also post a comment. All between 10pm and 2am for that matter. Sweet life gents.

With various teams in need of Receivers, the total lack of interest in players like T.O. and Burress league wide makes me wonder if there was a “memo”, or other device from Park Avenue, directing teams to take a pass on these kind of trouble making players.

They are clearly tanking the season already. Rex fired in offseason. Draft a new qb. Pick up old retread norvell turner. Andy Reid goes to San Diego. Gruden to Philly. Don’t forget where to send the check.

Pretty easy to see they want Matt Barkley or Geno Smith…. acquiring T.O. would hurt their chances at getting the number 1 overall pick.

Maybe TO should try out for Porn like Chad # 85 Johnson!! NFL stamina is better than That of porn stars so he may have a shot!!

31 other teams aren’t interested in the old geezer either. A handful of them are even worse than the Jets & they pass on him too.

Start over and move the earth to draft Geno Smith.

Or draft Barkley, who is a poor man’s Sanchez/Leinart, and be irrelevant for another 6-7 years.

Good to see that someone else is passing up on an opportunity to get better and it’s not just my Jaguars. Usually it’s my Jags that say, “Nah, we’re OK with mediocrity”.

The Jets are the one locker room in the league a cancer like Owens could go and not make it any worse. Hence the only team that should consider signing him.

But hey if Tannenbaum and Rex think either Sanchez or Tebow will thrive and win with that crappy beat up receiving corps they are delusional.

T.O. ‘s problem in pre -season was catching deep balls, NOT over the middle. He still has the balls. Boulders compared to yours. What the 3 of you have in common is a big potty mouth.

Last time he play in NFL he still put up over 800 yards in 7 TD’s in only 12 games. Still making catches over the Middle. Put a gag ball in T.O.’s mouth , he gets 1100 yards in full season.

All this chatter about TO, when Chad Johnson is 4 years younger, and last time I checked, didn’t poison a locker room with his “me-first” attitude.

Chad will be remembered for egregiously donning a yellow jacket on the sidelines with the words “HOF ???” on the back. He’ll never even sniff the Hall Of Fame with his numbers, but otherwise, he seems to be genuinely humbled by his fall from stardom, and may be appreciative of a team rewarding him with another chance.

I don’t know what logical person would think TO would be a good fit for that team. The locker room isn’t the most solidified, they’re currently a losing team, and the QB situation is unstable.

How would bringing TO, a guy who couldn’t beat out B. Edwards in Seattle, give them a better chance to win? You might think they need to bring in another WR, but I don’t think TO is the answer.

They’re waiting….they’re hoping….they’re dreaming! Are they gonna give up an entire season to try to save face? Go find some healthy receivers idiots!

You know your career is pretty much over when not even the New York Jets want you.

Jets have to rule out T.O. That would take them from 95% circus to full blown status. On that note can it really get worse Rex? If you are not looking at legitimate options you are intentionally tanking for draft positioning. Stephen Hill will most likely have a very bright future but he is still very raw and on the shelf. Jason hill is the guy you use as your 6th receiver…. Which is quite evident when he was the 49ers 6th receiver even when they had no depth outside of Crabtree 3 years ago. At least explore for a trade because if you wait around for draft positioning you will most likely just aid your replacement, not yourself.

They have enough of a circus there with Tebow…they really don’t need to make it worse.

By: itsonlyaspeedbump

Not interested? Is it because they don’t want to bring in a player that could be a distraction or somehow undermine their starting QB?

Why not. Season DEAD and so is TO’s career. Why bring a bigger circus to town.

This makes absolutely no sence at all. What are the Jets thinking? How can you have a REAL circus, if you dont have a clown?
