Rex is an idiot. Boy, it must be sad to be an inept head coach, have an inept offensive coordinator, an inept general manager, as well as have lap band surgery and still be fat as hell with Christy Canyon tits.

Rex is going to look pretty dumb for not making an earlier change if the jets win the next two given his inertia in dealing with the abysmal QB situation this season.

Rex leaning is a funny.

After this weekend it’s likely the big talkers will offer McElroy being acquired by the Bucs. That’s about as smart as most commentators get these days. Whoa dude, one minute here, how about a straight up swap Freeman for McElroy.

I hope Rex and Sanchez live happily ever after as a defensive coordinator and back up QB somewhere next year, probably Arizona (they promote their defensive coordinator to head coach) or Jacksonville, where Tebow will be the official starting qb.

I think it’s clear that the coaching staff didn’t want tebow. The owner did and probably made it happen. The jets have institutionally been all over the road this year. They need to clean house from top to bottom in the management and coaching layers.

Nobody should take Rex starting McElroy to mean he is a better option than Tebow. I think it’s fair to say he has lost any credibility when it comes to choosing a starting QB.

They got exactly what they wanted out of the Tebow trade: ATTENTION. Now, there is no way Rex will start Tebow. If he comes in and plays even halfway decent and wins, Rex would not survive the media/fans aftermath questioning his decisions all year. McElroy gets the starts because that is the only way Rex coaches next year. He still might get fired but if he starts Tebow or Sanchez it would make it a certainty.

This team is so stupid, all you can really do is laugh! They trade for a guy they don’t believe in & find EVERY way to not use him??? Sanchez should’ve been benched and would’ve if they really cared about winning. Why won’t the front office just come out and say “We will not play Tebow because we don’t want him to possibly win a game or two so that we can cut him at the end of the season”… Not a Jets or Giants fan but ,this is why the Giants will ALWAYS the only relevant football franchise here in NYC. If you don’t give up your fandom of this team you must really love torture lol

They are roasting Sanchez in the highlights. They are playing all the interception calls from Monday’s game with Yackety Sax playing in the background.

What if this happens.. Mcelroy starts, gets hurt and Sanchez walks back in and plays very well !!

Does it honestly really matter at this point who they start? This is a non -issue.

Who cares?!!! Why is there so much news about a horrible team other than they’re from NY?

They gert more coverage than the Falcons and Giants combined!

As a Pats fan, I’m sad to see Sanchez take a seat on the bench.

I am glad Tebow is a straight arrow and has his Faith cause he just got The Shaft from the second team he has “played” for. Somebody please trade him to a bigger loser than the Jets so he has a chance to start.

Oh, there are no bigger losers than the Jets.

Its about time. McElroy was their best qb in preseason and got the save against AZ.

As for Tebow, apparently three different NFL coaching staffs have come to the same conclusion – that he’s not good enough to be #2.

They absolutely cannot start Tebow for 2 reasons:
1) the only way Tim could have any semblance of success is to tailor the offense to him. Too late to do that.
2) Rex may be fired anyway but if you start Tim and he wins and Rex stuck with the futile, struggling Sanchez all year without giving Tim a chance, he would be fired for sure.

Get out now while you still can Tim. That team is a mess.

Should have started him the game after he came in and got a win. Too little too late Rexy.

Sanchez shouldn’t even be active the rest of the year.. I’m no jets fan but when ya kids F up they need to be disciplined..same applies here especially if he’s goin to return next season.

Rex should start another head coach.

If Tebows worse than last year, you sure wouldn’t want the team you’re trading with to show he’s worse. Let them bid on the unknown vs, oh that guys regressed.

if Rex is smart he won’t start terrible Tim unless he is an RB.

I’m not a Tebow fanatic, but I do recall him winning some games last year. Is that why the Jets won’t start him, because it makes too much sense? Or are they worried they’d lose anyway and weaken whatever trade value he may still have? It really says something when Tebow could look at a trade to the Jaguars as a significant step up in life.

Finally. The best QB on the roster gets his chance. Don’t be surprised when they blow out my Chargers.

The surprising stat the ESPN crew came up with: The Sanchize with 50 turnovers in 4 years. Philip Rivers with 47 in 4 years. WTH happened, you ask? I say the Norvenator.

Stick a fork in this awful team…makes sense to start McElroy now that the Jets have been eliminated from playoffs cause Sanchez stinks as a quarterback.

By: dkrauss93

dkrauss93 — Tue, 18 Dec 2012 19:44:21 +0000

Now its official. Too little WAY too late. Hopefully he plays well enough to be starter for next yr and if not I like Tyler Wilson in round 2.

I am hanging on the edge of my seat wondering who will start for this
” must” game. I will be checking this site every five minutes for information.
