Clemens played like a rookie. He tripped over his own feet, fumbled a snap, got sacked inside the ten and fumbled. He has not proven that he is even worth paying to hold a clipboard.

AINGE is terrible. He was splitting snaps at UT.

Get rid of both of them in the offseason and sign a veteran backup. Someone that can come in, hand the ball off (stay on his feet) maybe complete a few passes and tutor the Sanchise. Garcia would be perfect for this role. Great presence in the clubhouse, well respected by teammates and a guy who became successful by studying under Steve Young. Plus, he can win a few games if the Sanchise goes down.

The biggest problems with our backups is not their lack of ability, but rather their lack of experience. Sanchise has no one to learn from and no one to tutor him. We have all heard Chad’s names thrown around for this role, but is anyone really confident that he will be able to play? And, does anyone really want to start going into cardiac arrest every time he throws an out pattern that takes 9 seconds to get to the sidelines and almost gets pickedd?

The sad fact is that if Mark isn’t ready to go, it’ll be KC behind center. No way they elevate our 3rd or 4th string QB with one week of practice.

Of course we’ll all support whomever we start at QB, but seeing Kellen back there is a nightmare scenario.

Clemens was really solid last night. He should be started over Sanchez for the rest of the season. He’s our only hope to make the playoffs.

…just kidding!!!!!!! but I actually do have a measure of confidence in him. I was NOT worried when he came in last night, and I would not be worried about him playing again, especially after he’s gotten some reps in with the first team this week.

I AGREE WITH ALL THE FANS! KC seems to be very uncomfortable and made too many mistakes. Now we all now why Mark is the starting QB! I think Ange or O’Connel will be a better option in the future, I think the Jets need a veteran QB on the roster to be a viable option is Mark is injured.
Go JETS! It was nice to beat the Bills

I’d rather have Glen Foley back there. Talk about being a spark off the bench.
Sadly Clemens will be cut next summer if not traded, (although whoever would bite would be foolish).
Getting back to Bent’s question yesterday: I vote for Vinny to come back as the QB coach next year. He was able to provide Chad with a role model on being a professional QB in today’s NFL: an invaluable teaching lession. We have no one to do that for Mark. Cavanaugh is obviously a nice man, but hasn’t been a QB in the league since the 80′s.

I dont want him to. but if he goes, we have to support him, just like eddie said.

finally a jet fan who thinks like me.

I dont think Ainge is any better, he has a decent preseason, but so did Ratliff last yr and Clemens 2 yrs ago. Plus he is our 4th QB, with a guy we picked up in week 2 as our 3rd. If our coaches are right about Sanchez being better then Clemens then they are right about Ainge too. No way around it.

I really really hope the kid is play, he is our QB plain and simple, but if Clemens plays, I’ll be rooting my ass off for him.
