We've had plenty of chances, playing the Jets won't help that cause.

Jets suck totally man. I mean Chad Pennington was their go to guy for like how long? I mean come on Chad Pennington? Brunell smokes that guy!!!!!! Unless we do to them what the Pats did to us it won't show anybody anything. If this game is even remotely close we suck also. With that I mean like 10 points or less.

No way we'll beat them by 45, let alone score 45. That said, we BETTER pound that team.

I would love that Scud, but I don't think the Jets D is that bad. I just hope that this Clemons kid doesn't pull a rookie rabbit out the hat type win. That would be a lot worse than what just happened against the Pats. Ohhh the horror!!!!

Re: Clemens to start for NY on Sunday

I'm not happy about it either Jdlea. Clemens might not be a better all around player than Pennington right now, but he has a much better arm. He earned a lot of respect from me from the way he played in his first career start against the Ravens. He will probably make a few bad throws next week, but overall I think he just gives the Jets more explosiveness than Pennington.

Re: Clemens to start for NY on Sunday

I know this is totally off topic, but is it me or does Chad Pennington kind of look like the Micheal Myers mask?

Re: Clemens to start for NY on Sunday

I have a problem with people who don't think Chad Pennington is a good QB. His example is a little extreme, but he may be the best example of a guy who is high on all the attributes that good QBs have, is short on some of the major tools that aren't important to good quarterbacking, and puts in great production year after year.

Pennington was having a down year, yet he was still completing 68% for 6 y/a. He's been a top ten QB in this league since 2002, likely still is, and never gets credit because people would rather see a big arm than a good QB.

All of this is lucky for us, because we now have a chance to confuse the Jets' QB this week and win a close one. If that same team played in any other city, Pennington would still be the QB, and his team would likely beat ours.

Re: Clemens to start for NY on Sunday

Clemens is a pretty good quarterback prospect.

But again, that's the same deal as Campbell. He's a pretty good prospect. He isn't a good quarterback, at least not yet.

I doubt he can ever be as good as Chad Pennington was though.
