Actually Garrard didn’t lose his job in Jacksonville. Jack Del Rio cut him for Blaine Gabbert before they ever had a chance to compete for the job.

the guy who lost his job in Jacksonville vs. dirty Sanchez? So what your telling me is nxt year Woody Johnson gets to pick a new coach and a #1 overall draft pick? Cant wait to see him screw that up!

I swear, the Jets should change their name to The Keystone Cops, I’m sure this year will be a total comedy act.

As a Jag’s fan, surround him with weapon’s & the skies the limit for him. Definitely outplays Sanchez & company with ease & will do everything he can to improve that team.

Key word: WEAPONS

If Garrard plays half as good as he did in Jax and brings his leadership skills, this will be the move that we all will come back to as the big one of the off-season.

With the #1 overall pick in the 2014 NFL draft, the New York Jets select…

for those of you Jet haters who disregard the facts, Garrard has career stas better than two thirds of NFL starters right now. Rating of 86, good TD to Int ratio, very similar to those of Joe Flacco, who is now the league’s highest paid player. Keep hating, he was named Miami’s starter befor injury last year and looked very good thru training camp. great signing for a team with little cap space.

Means nothing. Jets signed Drew Stanton as that same veteran backup QB last year, then backstabbed him by trading for Tebow.

Nice pickup signing a QB with a bad back. He’ll be lucky to make it past week 3. Garrard is a good guy; but like all competitors, he doesn’t know when to walk away.

You guys act like Garrard isn’t a stiff. Look up his career stats 20 touchdown passes once, 3000 yards a couple of times. Never leading his team anywhere. Tarvaris Jackson is great too…right? Lemmings.

Just another sign on how weak this QB draft class is (weak meaning clear cut 1st rnd talent)… Lots of value in rnd 2, 3 & 4 – all about the scouts in those rounds

Fins fan here…..I think this is a very good move for the Jets. This puts some pressure on Sanchez to perform and you also get a quality backup that you can win games with.

Garrard was the best QB in Dolphins camp last year before he was hurt. If he is healthy, he can add a lot of value.

Same story as last year. Sanchez week 1 starter, Garrard comes Week 3.
What a mess!

That is by far the worst quarterback trio in the history of the NFL. Including when the Ravens had stony case and whoever else

GOOD NEWS: The Jets upgraded their QB situation.
BAD NEWS: They did it by signing David Gerrard.

You can get Nick Foles for a lot less money and is a good alternative than this guy. Your pass up Foles to Hit bumps on the road???

Now that’s making headlines!

Ya gotta think now, Rex won with Mangenius personnel and now that personnel is gone.

No way Jets win 8 games, I’d say 6 is realistic. But, hey, they signed David Garrard!

(Maybe they’ll trying inserting that Tebow kid. Or not)

By: rajbais

rajbais — Mon, 11 Mar 2013 22:40:04 +0000

More money wasted instead of gathering more to pay Revis!!!

The Jets deserve to win fewer than 6 games next year!!

What’ll they do when Garrard goes down … again???

The guy hasn’t played since 2010!!!

By: theuglitruth

This signing is just admitting to the fans that they don’t plan on trying that hard to win!

No matter how bad a team might be at QB, when a guy wasn’t able to live up to the lofty standards a Jaguars QB is held to and then is unemployed for two years……

By: billsfan1

billsfan1 — Mon, 11 Mar 2013 22:25:02 +0000

mediocrity at best…. I should know, Ive been watching that crap for 13 years now… Garrard is an ok guy to play a few games subbing for the starter (like Fitz) but i wouldnt put my money him being very effective… esp when Sanchez is the bar that was set….

again not being critical as much as getting sick of seeing teams try to over take the Pats with garrard and fitz…..

at least Miami drafted a young guy… idk if he will amount to alot but at least they are taking a chance..

Garrard will beat out Sanchez, he can beat him throwing LEFT handed.

How bad do you have to be to lose your job to Blaine Gabbert? I mean, how bad?

By: gmfw7

gmfw7 — Mon, 11 Mar 2013 22:18:17 +0000

he would’ve won the starting job in miami this year if he stayed healthy…he still is a slightly better than average QB and is definitely an upgrade over sanchez…i’d bet that he’s the starter week 1, but rex has his whole face in sanchez’s ass so ya never know

By: judalation

judalation — Mon, 11 Mar 2013 22:16:29 +0000

Ohh thank GOD! The Jets are still terrible! but at least they are not Buttfumble terrible!

I know the Jets want Sanchez to win the starting Job because Rex Loves him… But no way Sanchez beats out Garrard in the preseason. And sure they will still piss off their fans by starting Sanchez… but when he goes 0-2 and has more ints than TDs the Jets will have no other choice but to bench Sanchez!

ESPN will probably cover this more than Harvin and Boldin combined.
